hmm my exchange program claims that 3792lbs (the officle claim) are 1720kg... now I have wrote 1720kg here in the datasheet and it transfers it into 3784lbs... not a big different but one calculation program is wrong :)

Anonymous 19/10/07, 03:51:31
Nissan GT-R is a legend. Based on the best import tuner Nissan Skyline GT-r, this supercar is probably the best on track and road. Not bad on speed either. Lamborghini fans, be afraid.

Anonymous 19/10/07, 03:53:56
Also, this car is much cheaper than regular supercars and is like a hypercar. Ex. Koenigsegg, Lambo, Pagani, and Saleen

Anonymous 19/10/07, 06:08:54
What a bunch of BS! Ref???? Shameless claims.

Heyhuub 19/10/07, 14:52:15
I'v deleted the Nuburgring times for now, i want some hard proof, not some wild claims. One of the Nissan engineers even said it probably wouldn't get under 7:44.

Georg 20/10/07, 12:26:13
officle claims so far is by Nissan GT-R chief engineer that they get 7:55-7:58min laptimes..

Georg 20/10/07, 12:27:01
delet the Lacuna Secca laptime... it was done by a testmule not a production car... testmules run under what ever specs..

Anonymous 24/10/07, 09:24:20
Not the amazing 'Exotica influence' it was once hailed to be eh? Ah well, I'll go back to Porsche now.

Anonymous 24/10/07, 09:25:25
i've just read a claim of "7:38:54 Nurburgring - Nissan GT-R" from Nissan @ Tokyo Auto Show waiting for confirmation

Anonymous 24/10/07, 11:03:44
The Nissan GT-R did do that time: http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Features/articleId=123066 There is also supposedly a video on youtube of the in-car vid...

Anonymous 24/10/07, 11:11:49
In car vid of the nurburgring run at 7:38 http://youtube.com/watch?v=uGe_fyhQazg

Georg 24/10/07, 12:49:13
the video CLEARLY shows a INCOMPLETE lap by 6seconds... at video time 1:01min the GT-R pass the pont were later the clock stops... at 1:07min the GT-R pass the point were the laptime clock starts... 6seconds cut off...7:38.5min +6seconds = 7:44.5min...means slower as the Turbo and the Z06..end off message

FastestLaps 24/10/07, 12:57:16
Isn't it the way how all cars are timed in Nordschleife - excluding the pitstop section?

FastestLaps 24/10/07, 13:05:15
Where's the reference for 7:35? We need a direct link to some major car test not the internet adress of Italian car blog "Autoblog.it". "Autoblog.it" is not a reference. I can't see anything about GTR-R's Nordschleife lap time in Autoblog.it front page. And I don't quite believe that this car is able to achieve 7:35. If, however, it is then people who build Porsches and Ferraris are idiots with no idea of how to build a sports car.

Mike 24/10/07, 14:56:54
try this link 7:38 and the race conditions was not really good so it maybe can do faster.http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/news/auto_-_produkte/hxcms_article_507 679_13987.hbs

Heyhuub 24/10/07, 18:34:55
It was still a pre-production vehicle, so we won't know if it's the same as the production model.

Georg 24/10/07, 18:50:55
there are many ways to clock the Ring..Autobild Sporstcars use complete laps 20823m as they tested the 997 GT2 in 7:32.18min on a slightly damp track.. GM does their factory tests on completel laps.. just search Opel (GM) Astra ans Corsa OPC Nürburgring ...there you see the way GM clocks the Ring..they use the tourist driver on off ramp as start finish..and in the videos you see that they do a complete lap not a cutted lap.. If Walter reach 7:32.18min in not perfect conditions you can be sure that 7:31min under perfect conditions are a full lap too.. means Porsche factory claims are full laps not that way...in my eyes a cheap way of Nissan to get a amasing sounding time...BTW does anyone know if the 4 or 6point race seatbells are stock in the GT-R ;) I have only seen 3point seatbells in press photos.. which opens the question how close was this car to a production model ;)

Georg 24/10/07, 18:52:38
http://a71.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/121/l_e8061df271e1d 1d3146a87fb74b41a46.jpg Ring laptime sheet of the GT2... thats a complete lap..and all see that there are magazines clocking complete laps..

Heyhuub 25/10/07, 18:30:08
SO guys , since the 7:38 time keeps being added. What should i do. It's clear it's a pre production model and unknown if it's the same as the actual production car. So should i leave the time standing, or should i delete it? Also when i played the video in sync with the Z06 video from sport auto you could also clearly see that the GT-R outran the Z06 on the straights. Last i checked 480hp and 1750kg couldn't do that.

Georg 25/10/07, 20:35:01
let it there till independent production vehicle tests are avaible

joe 25/10/07, 21:55:23
A lot of other cars are timed the way the GT-R is timed here. What evidence is there that Porsche and GM times a "complete" lap? Do they have an in-car video to prove that? No. If Nissan released this video to the public then it must mean that it is an industry-accepted timing method, otherwise they would get hounded on by Porsche and what not.

joe 25/10/07, 21:58:45
Georg, everyone knows a complete nordschleife lap is 20.8km....but does Porsche have hard evidence to prove that they timed it at 20.8km? No.

joe 25/10/07, 22:00:19
Also, look at the Radical SR8 video on youtube. If you use the timer on the video and start and stop timing at the exact same places where the GT-R is timed, you see that the Radical SR8's time is 6:55 WITHOUT the final pit straight.

Heyhuub 26/10/07, 00:12:32
That's not the point, the point is that it's not a production car. It's still a prototype with unknown modifications.
