The potential with the GT R of after market engine stuff will put in a category of supercars I can only dream of owning. The RS4 modifications will be limited by small gains due to its NA engine.

The GT-R is already in a different class than the RS4, M3, C63. It recorded a time of 7:35 around the ring in testing. That is very fast, not many production cars are faster than that. A few of cars it beat: SLR Mclaren, 997 turbo, Veyron, Z06 Vette, Ford GT, Zonda S. The GT-R simply put, just hauls ass.
WWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW
In all my bimmer mind, wearing now a sauber bmw t-shirt all i can say is IIIII WAAAANT ONEEE!
It's Crazy if the figures are true. Also as member from m3post said: GT-R & Vishnu Tuning = 10 sec. 1/4mile which is freakign awesome.
I WANT ONE!

My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
I?m sorry guys, but I can?t get excited about any Japanese car no matter how fast it may run.
My 550 sport will wrench my neck when I stomp on it and going from 5.5 sec to 3.5 sec would not swing me.
I got my first Bimmer because I wanted a Bimmer not because someone off the west coast put a big ass engine in a toy.
Isn?t there a Datsun Forum someplace?

This is not just some toy with a big engine. Every driving aspect of this car is off the charts. Just because the GT-R doesn’t have a BMW badge, doesn’t mean its not any good.

Here are some photos of the lcd screen. It displays engine/performance information: boost, engine oil temp pressure, accel/braking g, cornering g, etc...
Its f*ckin awesome.
