True, but the stock wheels are hot! Aren't they made by Rays?Originally Posted by ATK_Designs
because the stock wheels look awesome
wow that exhaust looks and sounds awesome.
Still a little quiet though....Originally Posted by Mad Mike
I guess they cracked the ECU. Props to them!
umm....i disagree.Originally Posted by LS2ner
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.

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.
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

Anyone know what track they are running at?

BTW: did u all notice that the speedo didnt work.. it went to about 10mph, and stopped.. i guess theyver got some kinks to work out with their ecu..
Umm Speedo works fineOriginally Posted by JITB
.. it's the farthest to the left..
Wow that thing shifts quick.
The ECU is cracked. You can send your GTR ecu out and have it cracked. Think its like a 3 day turn around.
which one got cracked quicker gtr ecu, or the iphone...lol
im guessing the GTR, lol. What company cracked it?

haha so you cant even do simple things like intake or exhaust? or just major things like boost and tune?

Those were some of the few things you could due until they cracked the ECU i guess.
seemed like looking at their graphs the car maxes around .75 bar before the crack

The JGTC NSX monocoque shares very little with it's street counterpart.Originally Posted by NAG2I
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.

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.Originally Posted by NAG2I
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.
Lies, all of that video was from Gran Turismo 5
