    It was a matter of time. You release one of the best tuner cars, and someone will find a way to tune it-no matter what kind of safeguards you install.

    True, but the stock wheels are hot! Aren't they made by Rays?

    Yea from the looks of it they managed to either change the computer out, or crack it. Thats awesome. I dont think 582 p/s is equal to 582 hp tho.

    582p/s = 574 HP

    1 p/s = 0.9863201 horsepower

    Ahh ok. Id like to know exactly what they did to make it gain that much power. They have have just did a good tune on it and turned up the boost.

    Anyone know what track they are running at?

    umm....i disagree.

    Mine's, MCR, Sunline Auto, Amuse and others were the first to get GTRs so i doubt nissan didn't give them specific permission to work on the car.

    The ECU is cracked. You can send your GTR ecu out and have it cracked. Think its like a 3 day turn around.

    Umm if you watched the video you would see an exhaust.

    Those were some of the few things you could due until they cracked the ECU i guess.

    OMG that doesn't count....................the JGTC acar is a full on race car.

    The competiton is held for street modified cars such as the HKS EVO.

    A Formula Nippon can go round in under 45 seconds and an f1 car can crack the 39 sec barrier.


    Cmon man street car comp. Record holders.

    AWD ... HKS CT230R
    RWD.....TOP FUEL S2000
    FWD ....TOP FUEL EK9

    thats why i posted the evo to cause i figured someone would say that
    at the end of the video though it does say that that is the new lap record
    and also on wikipedia it says the nsx hold the record
    but even if you dont wanna consider it the record the time that the all carbon evo put down was still faster then the previous time posted in this thread

    The JGTC NSX monocoque shares very little with it's street counterpart.

    Different suspension geometry and engine modifications are limitless.

    It's basically Group 5 for the 21 century.

    Here is the 06 regulations that are still in effect.
    http://supergt.net/supergt/2006/06whats/06tcreg_en.htm

    Just like in all GT racing. Just cause it looks like something from the outside means nothing as to what it is when you take it apart.

    i know its not much like a stock nsx but what most of them are saying is that it is the record holder, so i don't know i can't say

    and it still isn't as extreme as building a race car compared to modifying a car, even if it is severely its still a lot different

    Record Holder to other JGTC machines... Not street cars.

    They havn't really brought another JGTC machine to Tsukuba cause it's primerly a street car and Motorcycle track. A 2008 SuperGT would probably bring that time into the 49 sec bracket.

    At HKS 30 birthday the raced the CT230R against a Nissan Z GT300 car and it lost. So It's not a fair comparison. At the end of the day, a car with tube chassis components is not a street car.
