Sarnie Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 The ECU thng is possible. I even read someplace that they be able to record not only your speed, rev's, G and so on but also your location by using the GPS chip from the sat nav. Think I read that on the OC recently. It is possible but could be against many privacy laws. You can do all that on the G. People have tried to claim for new clutches but have been refused as they can tell that they have been ragging the car. My sat nav gives me specific my GPS co-ordinates at any given time so its all possible. Have any other colours been announced yet? That silver is sooo dull....I'd love to see a black one Quote
martinmac Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 With you on that Zedrush, the Black does look awesome but its back to the "keeping it clean" issue. Quote

sinbad Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 could be traction and gearing differences?? dunno Quote

Sarnie Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 could be traction and gearing differences?? dunno Wouldn't of thought its the gearing as both use an almost identical double clutch system. Odd. Quote

Odd. I don't think he means the method of changing gears but the actual gearing. Ratio's Fair enough but at nearly 300kg's heavier and less power to beat the 0-60 time by 0.5 seconds is sensational if its true. I look forward to TG getting one for an opinion outside of Nissan.

GC350z Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 After doing a google search for LG 0-60 I found that of the first 5 results there’s 3 different times given. 4.0, 4.3 and 3.9. On L.com it says the 0-100km/h is 3.95 so the 0-60 would be a faction quicker. Go test it Liam. Quote

Yep I'm more interested in the direct comparisons of it and other cars. Nissan have apparently pitched it against the 911 Turbo but the 0-60 time has propelled into £170k car as even he murci 0-60 is 3.6 This is either a truely phenomenal car or Nissan are stretching the truth. i'd say its somewhere in between.

GC350z Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Lambo have the murci 0-100km/h at 3.4 I'd say 3.5 from the GTR is possible with all that technical wizardry it has. Quote

Sarnie Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 lol December 6th December 6th Anyone want a G for £55k Quote
sinbad Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 the evo 6 when it came out did 0-60 in 4.4 with 280bhp. I know its heavier but with the technology its highly plausable that the GTR can do sub 4 secs with 200bhp more. Quote

I know its heavier but with the technology its highly plausable that the GTR can do sub 4 secs with 200bhp more. Even the new 430 scuderia is listed at 3.5 secs. I'm just sceptical of that time thats all. I love everything else about it so far (apart from the silver paint)...... Quote
