When will we get specs? ZISME responds-
Just in case you missed this post, it was buried in a thread you know where: Take it or leave it.

The comparison you refer to is using estimated specs from a while ago. There is a press embargo on spec and driving impressions until July 3. We are working on a plan to get final specs to pre-sell customers prior to the embargo date.

Is that metric HP? If so that is 256.4 hp. If that is a dyno # then that is 301 hp at the crank with an assumed 15% loss. All of this is an assumption. . . you know what that means! Sorry to make an *** out of everyone (and myself). From the looks of the site, I dont think they were giving us rear wheel power. It was fun while it lasted.

Just looked up CV. It is metric HP (1 horsepower = 1.014 metric horsepower). If I had to guess about the figure on that web site, I'd say it's the original 260+HP figure that Nissan originally quoted for the car way back when.

BrianZ,
Not to disagree, but my gs400 has about 20-21% drivetrain loss. Someone in the CLublexus forums posted a dyno sheet. I'll try to find it and show you guy's
IMO 10-15% is a little low.....maybe 15-25%.

I don't have any actual evidence, so thanks for looking for the dyno charts. I might check around on the Internet so I'm more educated.
I just know guys I run around with and whenever we dyno our bikes or cars we estimate 10%. Maybe that figure is only good for our bikes!
The cars-only guys in my crowd have been lying all these years....
(Oh, BTW, that's why I said "my understanding is..." just in case my understanding is wrong! I don't know everything, that's why I'm here!)

Okay, after looking around seems like abou5 15% to 16% is more usual. Some were as high as 22%, and some as low as 12%. Some of the tests with higher than 22% drivetrain loss were attributed to inflated crank dyno numbers rather than large drivetrain losses.
I'll keep looking.

i noticed that too pekkle. he's a very trusted source, and for him to speculate that the car is going to have 260cv - very odd. oh wells... laughing - i don't even know what 260cv is ... hehe...
