Just found this while on topgears website, hopefully not old news. There's a video on their website too, sounds nice and throaty. from - http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/2008-11-13-nissan-gtr GT-R’der Nissan has confirmed that a Spec-V GT-R is on the way: a more powerful, lighter version of its supercar-eating Godzilla. It sounds mental. Rumoured to arrive at the Nismo Festival being held at the Fuji Speedway at the end of this month, the Spec-V could put out as much as 580bhp from its twin-turbo 3.8-litre V6 – a full 100bhp up on the already-brutally-quick GT-R. Those power gains will be achieved through increased turbo boost and a revised ECU and exhaust system, but the upgrades won’t stop there. Plenty of carbon fibre will ensure that the Spec-V will be significantly lighter than the stock GT-R… which could mean we’re looking at a car that’ll hit 60mph in under three seconds. Jeez. It won’t come cheap, though. The Spec-V is expected to weigh in at around $150,000 in Japan, with European prices as much as double those of the normal GT-R - £100,000 or so here in the UK, then. If you need convincing that it’ll be worth it, take a look at the video below featuring a few spy shots of a Spec-V prototype taking to the ‘Ring. If the normal GT-R can lap the Nordschliefe in 7m29, how quick is the Spec-V going to be? It’s not going to impress Porsche, is it?

GPS limited 180kph eh??? Hmmmm..... Does that mean it would open up inside a tunnel when you lose GPS reception?

Yeah you gotta love channel Dave, they play about 6 episodes of Top Gear per day! Along with a lot of other manly shows. Gotta love London for supercars too, just saw a purple Zonda on the way to work this morning near Buck Palace. Hehe.

Nope, JC drives the 430 but the Stig doesnt follow him in the GTR. Its GTR vs 911 Turbo. And its not JC driving the GTR, its Bill Thomas. The Stig does pop out of a bush at the Nurburgring, jumps into the GTR for a few laps and then disppears back into the bushes. :lol:

Actually it wasn't Clarkson who wrote the article, it was Bill Thomas. I've got the mag in front of me. I also read its Nurburgring time of 7:38 was 2 sec faster than the Veyron and the 911 Turbo and 9 secs quicker than the Ferrari 599. Can't wait till they have it on the show, I don't think it'd be too long away as the Stig has already driven it.

Hey I have some braided brake lines to suit a 180sx with r33gtst calipers and was just wondering whether these lines would also fit r32gtr calipers?

Depends on a factors such as traffic, angle of radar etc but a rule of thumb is at least 2-3 secs on a worst case scenario. Enough time to drop 30 k's or so I'd say.

Have one more in stock and another batch coming this week, with all accessories as well!! Get one before double demirit points start!!

I should still have them in a month or so, let me know if you're still interested then. Group buys are a bit of a pain in the a55. But if you want to organise one and pay the money all together I could arrange a discount. Cheers.
