The GT-R ran an 11.8 in the 1/4, and they reported it to weigh 3800 pounds, which is pretty much what I've seen everywhere else, and had an overall lap time of 1:56.9
The Z06 ran the 1/4 in 11.7 and had an overall lap time of 2:02.2
The extra weight in both cars is 160 pounds, which is roughly the weight of a normal sized man... the driver.

Either way, I don't want to turn SW's thread into another Z06 vs. GT-R debate like every other automotive forum has. I def. look forward to seeing it on HRE wheels and some coilovers!

I drove another one today that had some miles on it. He also has the mid pipe and upped the boost a little, what a fun car. No, it's not as fast as my ZO6s or Supras, but it's a lot more refined. There won't be much out there that will hang with it from stop light to 100, thats for sure. Lot's of useful "toys" to play with also. They used the people at Sony who designed the Sony Playstation, to design the Navigation/gauge system, it's unreal. 2.5 years in wind tunnel tests ect. It's alot of car for the money. Speaking of money, Nissan just increased the MSRP by 10% on Friday. My Dealer called me, he wanted to back date the deal to thursday so he wouldn't have to pay Nissan the extra 10% that he didn't charge me.

I have a ZR1 coming around Nov., I hope it will be worth all the hype.

Thats funny, I just saw this thread and was wondering why you got this car with the ZR1 being released, I was sure you'd be the guy to pick one of those up. But Hot Dang I like your style, you got both!! HAHA. Keep us posted on the mods.:thumbsup:

I belive the last tid bit I read about the ZR-1 was it bested the GT-R around the Nordschlief by 3-4 seconds...........

THe ZR-1 is bad ass car for the money. But the GT-R is pretty cool too. Thats funny about the dealer calling and asking for more money after it's been sold...........damn dealers.

From what he posted, the dealer didn't call asking for more money. Nissan has raised the price by 10% on all GTRs this year and all the dealer wanted to do was back date the paperwork on his car to an earlier date to avoid the extra 10% charge.

Love the car BTW. I think it looks great in black, especially with the dark gray wheels. I see a white one running around here quite often.

We are doing audio in one, around 12k worth! Came from the dealer to our shop! What do you do for a living, may I ask, besides collect superb cars?
