Like everyone said, from a standstill, we do not stand a chance even versus a stock one versus a modded AMG.
However, they do lose up top. At the mile run ran in Miami, all the C63s did same or better than any stock GTRs (GTRs in the 160s range, C63 in the high 160 up to 180). Modded GTRs are killers though and the mods are inexpensive. One ran 190...
so from a roll, you may have a chance to hang in there, if you step on it first

not yet, have had much issues with the stockers and my mods--- if I jump to bigger turbos then yes... Im sure I could run more efficient but I dont drive the car too much.

Since dyno numbers don't mean much nowadays, I figured I would give some real (concrete) numbers live from the track that I have personally seen from a couple of GT-Rs during recent track events:

Fantasm ran an incredible 10.8x @ 130 mph in 1500 ft of DA and on worse-than-stock street tires He had the average mod package for these cars (don't know exact details, but I know it worked). He was ripping 10s throughout the entire event.

Similarly, I have witnessed 2 other GT-Rs at Famoso (at different events) going 11.0 to 11.2 @ 128 to 131 mph.

Mo you are right, I think Fantasm has a tune, mid pipe, maybe exhaust and the Cobb--- hopefully he chimes in.

Here is what Fantasm has:
Esprit Downpipes (bigger than HKS DP)
Titek Resonated Midpipes
HKS Legamax Exhaust
HKS Race Suction Intake
Cobb Stage 2 91 Octane (out of box Cobb tune, no modifications).

Every time I see his name, this famous Fantasm video comes to mind.......mad driving skills..right?

I would love to try out a stock GTR 45-150 like I did with the 212 E63 .

I want to go to the track when we get all these 63 guys together too. I'm on street tires also so I doubt I'm going to run that good even if I come.

Are you guys going tom and if so what time ?

Hey izzy, I was just thinking a lot of these guys think since I got the 2nd cat deleted / setup I should be gettn an extra 10whp. I was wondering since you didn't do anything yet if u would like to do a 50-120 run with me just to see if I'm actually puttn out a lil more power now.

you do not get 10wp from 2nd cat delete...that is from the primary cat delete.

if 10 was true every one would be doing it....

if i was to follow this then you would get 20whp from primary/second cat delete lol

but like you said a test is needed, and even if you beat him it comes down to a number of things, fuel, which gear was used, tired, rims, clean filter, car & driver weight etc

I'm going to start putting away my yearly bonus to buy Vic's GTR when he is done with it!!

Love GTR's, but kinda hate dealing with Nissan dealers.

Owned a G35 and Nissan Armada couple of years... and If I had a GTR I would try to find a mod friendly dealer and do most of the maint stuff with a private mechanic.

John from Broadway Auto here in North NJ took me out in a GTR he had worked on about a week ago. The thing was scary powerful, just HOOKED AND PULLED like nothing I had ever seen. No wheelspin, just full on *****-in-your-throat acceleration. I know John has built some fast cars, but I'd never been in anything that got traction like that, with that much POWER.

Ok I had 5 runs last night mostly all back to back with no cool down and my best run was a 12.49 @ 114.6mph with 2.055 60ft. I ran a 12.5 @114.76, 12.65 @ 113.8 and 2 12.8 runs. My best time was done with traction on (The 2 12.8 runs were with traction off and 2.3 60ft times)

My friends 2010 GTR had a best time of 11.6@120!The car is amazing! He backed that up with 3 11.7 runs and 1 11.8 all at 119 and 120mph.

There was another stock e55 there who's best time was 12.5@113mph.
There was a stock CTSV there that could not do better then 12.7 (Auto) and a ZO6 who's best time was 12.3 (Could not get traction)

All in all a great night. I am still amazed at how effortless the GTR runs 11's! Definitely my next car!

The GTR's front is horrible imo, I was considering one but I dont think I could stand to look at that front for more than a week without trading it in

Vic/Rock/Skyler...I am so seriously thinking of getting the GTR...you guys are killing me here!

My Z06 was "capable" of high 9's and trapping 140's. I'd be lucky to cut low 11's on street tires because it was just too much damn power for RWD. I need something with grip. Even my CTS-V is just overpowered. I got brand new tires on it and I have to baby the throttle all the way thru 3rd gear. The GTR just GRIPS. Man...I have a dilema now lol...

I have a feeling a test drive might seal the deal.
