Yo Gobiz bro,
Alternative to the 997 Turbo in UK, comparing the price and performance, i bet that will be even a more drastic comparison in Malaysia when you've to pay RM1.2Million for the most basic car of 997 Turbo.
Nismo S-Tune,
agree. Decision maker for Automotive industries, or rather the Trade Ministry are to be blamed in this case..i say...f*** them nicely. Protecting National cars' sales interest i agree very much. Then they should make the 2.0 litre Camry, Accord, etc to be more expensive then 530i, since that's the higest cc they can compare.
Proton on the other hand is doing great job recently to their sales...is just those ..again, decision makers/f***er taking them as the protocol..and make them ugly...sad stories go on and on..
therefore, some people opt for the "head turning power" of the car and some really searching for the "xxx Nm" of the car, we can basically distinguish the group quite well now/
Then even comparing Evo vs "Proton" vs VW double clutch gearboxes..that i think we will open another topic for god sake.
To all NISSAN supporters, and especially to those who had any of the Previous GTRs....
I would say let's just show them some love~~~...this is the first time, although through almost totally different management, Mr Ghosn management, When do you think we would see a stock 500 HP GTR if otherwise. Very first time NISSAN is creating something to go head to head "PerformanceLY" and "price tagLY" with those "marques" that scored endless distinctions in races, and that which killed James Dean..
Opting to have the GTR running the Double Dry sump clutch transmission, IMHO, is the only choice NISSAN have in their case.. selecting the Supercars to be its benchmark. If 6-speed super durable manual box is what they are allowed, i bet we are seeing GTR flying around on PLUS highway now..
my take, Give it a try and have fun of just changing the front and Y-pipe, keep the stock muffler, load the Race mapping from a hand help called AccessPort and you get 580hp, 70+Nm..nothing more i can ask but to bare with the infant stage of transmission probe process...
