Samurai Speed Breaks Their GT-R's Transmission!

I'm not surprised...600+HP and monsterous torque--that's allot for a stock tranny to deal with especially after about 100+ launches.

Oh well...gorgeous exhaust note though!

Bummer.

I was expecting a bang or something more dramatic.

Impressive et. Mph is ok too. This one will give the 08 Vipers, ZR1, GT2 a serious run on the highway. Sucks about the tranny though.

I read on another forum as well that they did over 100 launches in this car before the tranny went. Thats pretty good in my book. If it can handle 100 hard drag strip launches with more hp than this thing will last a long time on the street if the owners dont do anything stupid.
