That figure is more likely for an AWD car, although I doubt this one was functioning as an AWD car when on the dyno.]]>Mar 29th 2008 12:01PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/Mar 29th 2008 12:18PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/It was functioning as an AWD car on the dyno. On an AWD Dynojet, the rollers aren't mechanically linked and unless I'm seeing things, the front wheels were turning.]]>Mar 29th 2008 3:53PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/Mar 29th 2008 10:08AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/Mar 29th 2008 10:11AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/Mar 29th 2008 10:42AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/
The gearing on the GTR is supposedly very tight through thirdgear, probably a factor. No one complains because there's no clutch. ]]>Mar 29th 2008 11:50AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/29/motor-trend-claims-nissan-gt-r-making-at-least-507-hp/
Also MT ran the car in the 1/4 mile, 11.5@124 is very fast, although conditions were more than favorable to an awd turbo car, 52 degrees out. I think that number will change drastically when people run it at 85+degrees.
Cool air and traction that is not affected by the same cold air that makes it fast, is quite the recipe.

This car seems to be the real deal, and may not be overhyped.]]>Mar 29th 2008 11:01AM
