no RUF is a independent car producer by German and US law..and they build NEW
cars..the Z-Tune are rebought used cars from the second hand market completly
reworked and sold again.. that has nothing to do with production
no matter if nismo is part of nissan..fact is that ALL R-34 Z-Tune build are
build on 2. hand cars... not a single was factory new.. turning a used car into
something different is tuning.. if you take a 2yo Mercedes to AMG and let them
turn it into a AMG you recive no new car..it is still 2yo.. same counts for the
Z-Tune
again why is the car still online? The car is build on 2. hand cars and has
nothing to do with "production cars" and that only 20 times

These cars are completely rebuild R34s by Nissan itself. They have no parts that
have any kind of wear so one can call them new. They even come with warranty.
Also they meet emission standards and every other requirements for stock cars
and they are build by Nissan itself. A lot of research has been made for the
creation of these cars and they have a huge number of of unique parts made
especially for them. It is a standard model that comes at a standard price with
standard warranty and specifications from Nissan. Why do they bug you so much?
Because they are fast?
@Japan that does not turn down the fact the car is a tuning car build up un USED
2. hand cars and it is done by Nismo not Nissan. It is only a extrem expansive
20vehicle special.
fastestlaps is a source for production car perfromance not tuner cars!
If we add this 20 used vehicles the next comes up and claims the Brabus Rocket
is a production car because Brabus already build much more as 20 of it..

I have never heard of Brabus Rocket again. Does it clear emission standards?
Does it come with warranty? Give more info. Z-Tune is not a tuned car. It is a
REBUILD car almost from scratch. It is fast, rare, and expensive and with
limited pruduction vehicle just like many other cars in this website
@ Japan
Brabus Rocket is the fastest 4 door saloon on earth with a topspeed of 365.7km/h
based on a Mercedes CLS. It is powered by a 6.2l V12 twinturbo with 730hp. Runs
under latest europen emission limits is street legal and still a full loaded
superluxury sedan.

Brabus is by law a independent car producer with a own dealer network all around
the world... and next to that it is the largest independent tuning company in
the world.
The Nismo is still build on used 2. hand cars no matter how much work they put
into the car and if they replaced every single screw.. it was already sold and
bought back!!!!
i believe Japan's point was made by this last post...@Georg ("no matter if nismo
is part of nissan..fact is that ALL R-34 Z-Tune build are build on 2. hand
cars... not a single was factory new.. turning a used car into something
different is tuning...") - the video above mentioned, doesn't seem to confirm
the fact these cars were built from 2nd hand parts but brand new parts
in any case the result is just as similar as Reventon for Lamborghini...only I
believe it could beat it on track!

They collected cars with very low mileage and in perfect condition to create
this cars.
Hmmm how would this car compare with GTR? R34 Z-Tune has better power/weight
ratio but GT-R is all new design.

I think its slower. Correct me if I am wrong but as I can remember its best
laptime @Tsukuba was something like 1:03:XX. It is in the video I posted before
Japan

Actually it was 1:03:54 with Bridgestone RE01R street tires for street and
1:01:15 with sticky Bridgestone RE55Ss for the track

Yeah, I really want to know the answer to FastestLaps' question. I have recently
been searching the net for comparisons of the Z-Tune and R35, but there is
insufficient data on the Z-Tunes part. I most of all want to know the Z-Tunes
Nurburgring time, but once again, insufficient data. :(
