I think everything that needs to be said about this topic has been said...
Well TECHNICALLY this thread was to discuss the magazine article on the two cars lol. THEN it turned into a GTR debate.
GTR
Obama
guranteed 5+ pages..
Can we add GTR into the swear filter or something? I think everything that can be said about it has been. Move on to the Genesis coupe or something lol.
"Obama is a long legged MACK DADDY!!!!...He pimps white women AND Black women"
LOL
Ive got a debate $10,000 to build NA miata or S13 ????
Which could turn a faster lap time ?
The Miata....lol....that's a dumb question.
I agree that the miata has better suspension esp up front but making power in a miata cost $ and I think that might help the 240 make up some of the difference.
Not really, you could swap in another motor, or boost the 1.6, or a 1.8 and stroke it to a 2.0, not to mention power to weight, Miata owns the 240 on weight.
I want a 13b Miata soooooooooo bad
I'm picking up a Miata shell soon and will probably do that to it. I've been looking into it a lot.
The porsche beat it by a few seconds.
I don't think its definitive, but it certainly says something.
The GTR isn't really turning out to be all its cracked up to be in the media. Awesome car, but not the automotive messiah.
"I get worried when it STOPS leaking."
^no but worth paying attention to.
? It won car of the YEAR by several acclaimed magazines,....which are media sources, and cars like porsche's gt2, cadillac's cts-v were it's competition as were many other cars...
It's a great car. And it hasn't even had time to develop, this is the 1st year the car/vr38dett engine has been put into production. Porsche has had decades to improve on the 911, of course it's faster...
240=2-4k
sr20det=1-2k
coilovers=1k
misc bs=tune, tires, maintenance bs, brakes etc...=3k
=badass little car.
There is no debate. Car is great. Some points about it may or may not have been exaggerated, and I know you would like to believe so, but you have an extremely biased outlook on this as you don't like the gt-r but like porsche, which is ok, but biased to not really a valid opinion.
That's like me asking someone who only like vanilla ice cream which is better, vanilla or chocolate? He's obviously going to say vanilla.
Um no not really. This magazine article wasn't written by me, all the unhappy GTR owners aren't me, all the magazines that complain about the parts I hate aren't me, so...lol
These threads are so dumb.
Any car guy if given the choice.
Porsche or Nissan...
Seriously? Who would take the GTR?
1997 M3/4/5
2004 X4 4.4i
1987 325iS 24V 6speed
Nissantun3r
That may be true I guess but that is just fucking stupid.
I would take the GT2 even if it was 20 seconds slower around the ring. No joke.
I would also actually take just a Porsche 993 Carrera over the GTR. The GTR is a fat pig and I like my girls thick... not fat

I have always said I would take a base model Boxster > GTR lol
THis was done last night...
"HybridMT who previous ran a 11.6 without the old launch control got his ECU updated by Nissan with the 3k rpm launch and went to the track to test it out. The results are shocking...

R35 GTR: Best r/t .000, Best 60' 1.69, Best ET 10.92, Best mph 129.9
What's so shocking?....
I just read the article from automobile mag, it said when everything was said and done the gt-2 only lapped the ring 7 seconds faster than the gt-r. But the gt-2 costs 100k more. LOL
Just saying....
Well, it ended up making the cover of www.autoblog.com
R35 GTR: Best r/t .000, Best 60' 1.69, Best ET 10.92, Best mph 129.9
I still want to know why they didn't test that...

you did it wrong
s13>Boxster>GTR>Miata
so did you s15>all!!!!!!!!!!you did it wrong
s13>Boxster>GTR>Miata
Sorry no offense after working with 240's and Silvias for a year I will never touch them again lol.
7 seconds is a HUGE gap on a race track.
And no shit about the price everyone already knows that.
see about that price.. some will dismiss it with the porsche... BUT will bring it up when they refer to the Zo6,Viper ,M3 and add what you can add for the price difference.
So with that said.. give me GTR with the GT2 price difference....and im a happy MAN!
A Z06, Viper, and M3 can be had less then a GTR. Is that what you're saying?
they are all cheaper arent they?
the front suspension sucks i know LOL. But 240's are like that ok looking girl who isn't the prettiest but is fire in the sack and just keeps coming back for more no matter what you do ha ha. I guess my point is 240=effective
