And, as it's tearing around the curve, no driver!

 

I dunno about that. They had to have started with a regular 'ol road Z, but they just modified it so much that it's barely using any original parts.

I know one thing for sure... If they did make that kit it wouldn't be street legal or suitable for normal driving conditions unless you had an air ride or hydraulic suspension. Too damn low! The front bumper & sideskirts look to be only about 2-3 inches off the ground. And if you had an adjustable suspension like one of those, your car would have a sickeningly huge ugly gap between the wheels and the fenders when driving at "street" height. It'd really only look it's best when parked and dropped to it's lowest possible setting.

I agree. And I say again... i wish Hasemi Motorsports had an e-mail address.

 

Haha. I noticed that it was just a white version of the red car after I posted.

Man I really want that hood.

 

Zig Zag....

That sig you have is nice dude!

I keep staring at it and making my own rev/ gear switch sound effects!

 

No. Nissan built the GT racer to take on various forms of GT and Touring car races. Just like the Viper GTSR, Porsche GT3 Cup, Ferrari 550GT. It's a purpose built factory racecar sold to race license holders. It still uses portions of the frame, the body shape, but to get it to 2400lbs they have tube framed the front and rear and use carbon fibre generously. 400hp is courtesy a $100,000 crated engine developed in part HKS and NISMO.

There's plenty of information on Porsche's cars as well.

Whoa. thx for the info and the link!
The only thing you said that I didn't understand was...

Do you mean the engine is sold seperately from the car and costs $100K on it's own? If so, do you know how much the GT spec Z33 costs without the motor?

 

Yes and no. I don't know what the package costs from the factory, however, if your buying new it would come complete with engine and all. Most teams would purchase a second engine if you where mounting a serious attempt at a championship, usualy three. I beleive they usualy have some policies regarding rebuilds and availability.

Teams will eventualy sell rolling chassis (no engine) but I don't know if they would sell it from the factory that way. Wouldn't want you sticking a mustang engine in there or anything

I would imagine if they sold the chassis from the factory by itself it would be well over $100,000. It wouldn't pass hwy safety if that's what your thinking. Bumpers are not to spec, lighting, no airbags and many other reasons, even though in a 100mph accident I would rather be in the GT.

 

Just found this. $250,000 Z33GT
