Dyno-Tested: 2012 Nissan GT-R

Beautiful

/\ :shakes head: and :rolleyes: at all the comments from people after the article in the link. It's the same sh!t we've been reading about since 2008, why can't people just let it go...

i just looked because you mentioned it.... yeah same **** as usual...

when i watch a youtube vid or a post on a blog i cant even read the comments anymore....

Love the new interior. Still can't decide between white or blue though!

white! its my 2nd favorite color on the 2012 the red accents look great on the white and the black edition wheels are great contrast..

also the DRL's blend into the front on white and its a more subtle look

also thought i would throw this out... if anyone wants a black or red 2012 premium i can get you one for just $2500 over invoice...cars are already built and here at port on the east coast

I really hate Inside Line's dyno. It is wildly optomistic. Not trying to detract from the 2012 GT-R here, but I would take those #'s wiht a grain of salt. Inside-Line managed to get 382whp out of a 2004 Z06, 392whp out of a 5.0 GT, and other absurd inflated numbers from other cars. Their dyno is a very ego-friendly one.

Still wishing the 2012 GT-R were a touch cheaper. Not an automatic fan, but I would be lying if I said I wouldn't have been hard pressed to go with it over the Z06.

1 that dyno is low for the 2012 not high.... with 93 octane and or a non mustang you will see alot higher... the increase of 44whp is what matters from that article not the actual 430... as 2009's were almost 420hp.. a 09 on that dyno made 396 to the wheels so the gain is there but both #'s were on the low side... infact the 12 didnt even make more boost than a 09 due to the octane issue...

you should see 455-460 from that car to the wheels

2 its not an automatic

3 but yeah i mean its 6K more than the 2011 and the black edition is 11K more...but the wheels on the black edition cost $10K by themselves
its still cheap comparatively but anyone can go get a GTR for high 50's to low 60's with a little mileage on them all day(20K miles or under) that puts it as an AMAZING value considering what else you can get for that price

EDIT: I stand corrected. It appears IL went to GMG racing, and did not use their standard ego-stroker dyno. My mistake. I am just so used to Inside Line's dyno numbers being laughable.

No, I guess it's not an "automatic" in the traditional sense, but it's certainly only working with 2 pedals down below, and that's what interests me.

What do GTR clutch pedals have in common with unicorns, Santa Claus, and the Easter bunny?

All of them DON'T FRELLING EXIST!!!!!!! Sorry, you had to find out some time, MC. :roflpuke2::roflpuke2::roflpuke2:

yeah i think on a ego stroker we would see over 470 easily
