I think you better read what you post , run second To "A 904" , this is your evidence for world domination LOL

Was'nt a WORLD DOMINATING GT_R beaten last year at Leguna by a 996 Cup ,A 996 CUP , in the TT championships ,it was also driven by a top Jap driver . so PLEASE SPARE ME!
THe GT-R is a good JAP car , but do not come around here , FLaunting race Victories on a PORSCHE website you will look rediculous...

SO READ UP SOMEMORE , exchange is good , GT-Rs' we have a lot around here and i have yet to see one break 2.20 @ Sebring , I have seen one run around the back before hitting the wall @Sebring, as i stated before post a 2.07 at Sebring and you will be as fast as an N/A Porsche.

Nissans Success with the GT-R is mostly attached to JAP racing , Internationally nothing to jump at , as there has never been a japanese prepared Car to ever win an international Pro racing event
well at least to my knowledge , but if you find one please post it here , as i would like to know ....

A.Wayne: While I agree with most of what you say Mazda won LeMans with a 4 rotor rotary car called the 787B. It's a sweet machine and the only Japanese car to win LeMans.

It was not japanese built or prepared , What i said was there has never been a Japanese built and prepared car to win an International pro event ...

Mazda is the only Japanese Manufactuer to win lemans , just not with a japanese
built or prepared car and 300 plus million later , neither has Toyota nor Nissan...

that might not be what they did on the racecar but i do know the site showed a way with dimensions to make a adapter or something along that lines in which they bolted them together.

besides if the bolts dont hold im sure JB weld would

Tim, the actual rotor housings are the same, and you can use 13B front and end casings, but the intermediates and eccentric are unique.

The World Challenge debut entry of the GT-R did 2:17 at Sebring. Not bad for a converted street car running against full blown factory race cars. Nevermind the JGTC series where Nissan's 350Z and Mazda's RX7 have continuously beat GT3's year after year.

There is a reason why the GT-R doesn't have big times here in the US... it's has not been entered in US racing. Like I said, just about everything it was entered in it dominated, and you have not proved that wrong.

What does it matter, it's all a ***** measuring contest. No one but Porsche can field an acceptable race car. If it beats a Porsche then it must be cheating.

Comparing JGTC 350z's and FD's to a GT3 is hardly a comparison.

You're talking about full out factory supported tube frame turbo cars vs NA unibody privateer cars. That's not even a comparison.

Please

Work on your comprehension , which part did you not understand GT-R slow ,
2.17 is not 2.07 , JGTC is a japanese series, LOL , have you ever seen a racecar
do you really know anything about racing , I think not .... but what the hell silly me for thinking that Porsche's win races ....where did i ever get that idea
