so, you agree that a Z can be built to beat a gtr? i'm not hating, just challenging. i have more respect for someone who can take an entry level sports car and beat some rich guy that drops 75k on a car.

gtr's are great cars from what we can read in magazines, but who says a Z can't be built to smoke the gtr? it's simple vehicle dynamics, power to weight ratios. why so many unbelievers?
We have another newb!

so that z made 500hp from a turbonetic system and heads

Seeing something and actually doing it is completely different...

I'm also with the idea, but have you seen the GT-R, youtube it...do it GT-R thats it, click search. The car is a monster that same rich only needs to buy track suited tires and you'll never see him. Probably when he parks, other than that...that thing moves. Still sad to this day that there' no stick

Good luck, cause you'll need it

another thing is that I think the GTR will be SO easy to modify. Cobb replaced the exhaust, suspension, and reflashed the ECU only to remove the speed limiter, no tune yet and made OVER 500 whp....the GTR is sick.

weber sports front bumper didn't come first. Nissan's GT-R Concept came first. The initial prototype was unveiled in 2001 at the Tokyo motor show.




Then along came the 2005 GT-R PROTO



Then came the weber sports front bumper in early 2006
