2009 GT-R – 500 whp with an exhaust – Option Magazine

Stolen from Erics – Beyond the Dyno blog Eric got it from the Option Magazine that Cosworth , and he are in. Eric doesn’t seem to like the numbers that the Dynapack spits out at you. I have found that Dynojet, Dynapack read very similarly. He has spent a lot more time on the dyno than me , but I know what I have seen.

500 whp with an exhaust change is no joke. I did not think the ECU would allow the car to run higher boost, with changes like this. It seems like the all knowing , all controlling ECU is not as big and bad as Nissan said it was. I really don’t like the look of this exhaust still. Who really needs 4 exhaust tips ? Works great for the Corvette guys , I want to see a true twin, or one big single exhaust. Add some mid-pipes , add some boost , and we will see 550 whp.

After a comment on here I noticed that the TC is set to 1.05 and the gear ratio is not setup correctly . The gear ratio will not have too much effect, the TC will.

Honda Fit beats Nissan GT-R

Business Standard

All the winners from the important Car Of The Year awards from around the globe.

The Fiat 500, the Honda Jazz, the Saturn Aura and the Lexus LS460 have more in common than just four wheels and an engine.

The Japanese COTY, on the other hand, is a Japanese manufacturer centric award, with all non-Japanese manufacturers contending for the Import Car Of The Year award.

In a year when the most significant car to come out of Japan is the new Nissan GT-R, the Japanese press and auto experts have voted for the new Honda Jazz instead.

Judged by a 60-member panel, it just managed to nudge out the GT-R and the new Subaru Impreza off the top-step, thanks to the second generation Jazz’s intelligent packaging as well as good all-round performance from a small car.

R35 GT-R vs Modena on the track

Someone else called it amazing. I wouldn’t call it amazing, but its interesting to see on the track. The GT-R looks like a tank in comparison to the Ferrari.

Mines GT-R parts.

From Autoblog via GT Channel

MINE’S has seemingly had a GT-R since the day it went on the market (likely before) and has already developed a new exhaust, catalytic converter, plus front and rear rotors for the R35.

400mm slotted rotors is what it says. 20 mm up. Just in case you need 20mm larger rotors. I wonder what kind of Mack truck they came from. Also the exhaust , the exhaust, who , why, why, twin still ? Why still four useless tips ?

GT-R will leave you speechless- Sun UK

The first is my car of the year. Hell, it might even be my car of the century.

And that car is the very fabulous Nissan GT-R.

2009 GT-R listed for $114,000 on Yahoo Auctions Japan

In Japan , Yahoo Auctions are king. Ebay is a smaller lesser online auction in Japan. Yahoo , used , to have online auctions here in the states, but the last time I checked, they discontinued them. So it doesn’t look good, if you want to try and buy a GT-R for MSRP. If Japan is having some crazy markups/ second sales , whats going to happen here in the US ?

The hype for this vehicle doesn’t look like it will calm down anytime soon. It doesn’t look like there will be any “after Christmas” discounts either as the prices just keep on climbing. Today on Yahoo! Auction Japan, the largest online auctioning site, the GT-R is being auctioned at $100K to $114K for the premium editions.
