once someone start to mass produce tubular manifolds for the GTR so you can use more standardized turbos, price of admission between the Z and the GTR wont be too much different.
The GTR has a nice closed deck block that is much better suited for boost (no duh bc its a factory FI car!)

I offered a lot of people to drive it... But only Tyler and Sharif drove it....it got away a little with Tyler ....The LSD helps ALOT!!! I don't thing Tyler felt it as much as we saw the rear whip. Raj and Paul did not want to ride the Beast

That's true.... But that d@mn AT on the GTR is killing me!!! I am sure a well setup 370 with 4 digits will be in the 9s also..... I will have the TC installed in advance this time!!!!

Thanks .....
I have the lift with the wheels.... You can position it however you want... I think its Interlift....Problem is only one section of the garage is high enough to fit one. Once this guy picks up the car... It will give me a little more room.... But I am having wife problems with garage.

Mike, as nasty as the power is on your G-to be honest, it was easier to drive than my car. When you have 600whp and no LSD, that makes for some serious pedaling. The thing is, once I get up to speed, my traction issues are gone-with your G (because of the power) the traction issues are there no matter what speed your at.

Funny you said that..... They wanted to put small tires on my car when they could not get a good run on the dyno....
...Raj is correct.... It's not a good feeling.... When I was racing him.... It would fish tail towards has car at 75+ mph.... I would let off.... But runway is too short to make it up. It was not worth risking his safety or mine.
I honestly did not know what to expect from the car.....I was still learning the clutch...
I have never driven a car with this much powa on STREET TIRES!!!
I offered a lot of people to drive it... But only Tyler and Sharif drove it....it got away a little with Tyler ....The LSD helps ALOT!!! I don't thing Tyler felt it as much as we saw the rear whip. Raj and Paul did not want to ride the Beast![Big Grin](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Edit: My offer still stands from ZdayZ, come on over to Road Atlanta in late July (23-25) and help Sharif teach me how to drive, ... every event I get just a little bit better. Your attendence at VIR in Feb 2011 is mandatory if you go down the GT-R path, ... mandatory!

Don't get Raj too excited, Mike. It's not an automatic trans, it's a twin clutch manual trans.
Trust me. it takes all of 10 mins to realize that third pedal simply slows you down. ![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Mike, come on over to the dark side. The paddles and SMG's are the future! I have learned shifting with just your middle finger works best for passing almost all other sports cars except ill driven vipers ,... best to use all fingers on those - lol

Yes.... But who knows the whp limit of that transmission?? I am being told it will not hold the kind of power I will want in the future
I am not planning on being the person to discover the limit for this community. The transmission on the lambo is the same kind of setup and only the MT is holding 1200whp without issues.

The twin cutch in the GT-R is much better than the setup in the lambo and the guy sat Underground have already exceeded 1000whp with the e-gear. Of course, only time will tell, but 900whp has already been done on the GT-R trans. There are loads of transmission upgrades for the GT-R available: Clutches, Billet piston seals, fastener kits, upgraded gears, and plenty of others. Nissan has always made fairly stout transmission, and this one is no exception. ![thumbup](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggthumpup.gif)

I am well versed in this setup.... And is my reason for taking the back seat and watching everyone else instead of being the first to jump in. Once I found out the the transmission on the F1 would cost close to 30k to replace.... I was even afraid to upgrade the floor mat
![](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/icon43.gif)
The transmission on the GTR is 17k....Not willing to be the first on anything dealing with this car. I will watch where things go!!!

Maybe.... But I am quite sure its no where as advanced as the Ferrari F1 transmission on the f430 or the new F460
.

..plus you only get one year warranty ...I know the power limit on the F1 transmission and it's no where near 1000whp.
