Buys you some sort of satisfaction, hardly ever will it actually make you “happy”. Coming from someone who has $347K in his account.. and that’s not even a lot
1000hp is really like an orgasm,it makes you say some weird stuff and make promises to her you don't remember later.But like a 1000hp it feels sooooo gggoooddd.
I have been watching Matt F the host for couple of years now on multiple different shows. His way of reviewing the cars has changed and got way better. Keep up the good work.
I just drove the 2013 GT500, and there was a lot more I could ask for. Like a real set of brakes and a chassis that didn't take a hop a foot to the side after hitting the smallest of bumps.
If toyota Supra was good at all they would still be making the car. Its just cheap as shit to upgrade because those junk cars are 20 years old. nothing special.
Jyan Lan You are clueless. In addition to the engine, Supra transmissions and rear differentials are still used as upgrades in engine swaps or even in Formula Drift cars because they're virtually bulletproof.
they are very similar products, he was just saying it says volumes about Switzer as a company because they were willing to work on maintaining, servicing, and repairing an AMS tuned car.
Kenshin Himura plain v8 vs twin turbo??? cylinders and engine size hardly have anything to do with power these days almost any engine can be made to put down crazy numbers ive seen 1000+ hp 4 cylinder engines explain that
Kenshin Himura In physical bulk it's bigger than any American V8 in production today. More moving parts too by far, even without counting the turbos and intercoolers. However, what does a GT-R make bone stock? 480hp or so? Not that different to the naturally-aspirated GM 6.2 does today.
No, it's the differential that makes the tires "spin" together. The live axle means that if one tire dips into a pothole or goes over a bump, the other tire will tilt on an angle and not be flat anymore, because the two wheels are connected by a solid piece of metal. In an independent suspension-equipped car, one tire can remain perfectly flat while the other tire moves about over rough tarmac, something that's not possible in a live axle car. Because of this, Mustangs behave badly on rough road
Marty Lynchian Jealous much ? Maybe because he knows what he's doing, he's a good presenter and he has a personality that appeals to people enough to lend him their priceless cars to thrash the shit out of... And you ? What do you bring to the table ?
You sound like someone that pulls a face when having to accept grubby change from those that you believe to be below you... I suggest that you look through the backlog of episodes and learn a little, not only from Matt's reactions but particularly from the reactions of those he meets toward him and his enthusiasm. I'm sure many of them would bear testament to his abilities and to his qualities as a presenter. Perhaps then you'll find something missing in that universe in which you reside... By the way, double check your spelling, your grammar and your initial use of the English language. It gives away the fact that you're actually not quite as elite as you would have others believe, that your high end sports car is more than likely something rather more mundane and that you are, in fact, tediously boring... : )
Awesome video! Don't worry too much about the price dudes, in Australia you can't even get a bone stock GTR for $140 000. They cost upwards of $170 000 from the factory. You guys have got it extremely good.
Matt summed it up pretty well later in the series, It's all about balance and the experience a car leaves with you. Who needs 1100hp that you can never fully tap on the street, when you can have a third or a quarter of the power that you can more readily utilize in a lightweight chassis that is properly sorted and deliver a unforgettable driving experience.
Went out to the Switzer facility yesterday to review the USE package, and to assess their credibility as an operation in meeting my needs. I walked away from the afternoon completely impressed with the team, and the car was fantastic. Needless to say, I'll be receiving a 2014 USE model in March if all goes right! Go Switzer!
Wow, what a car. I would KILL to have your job Matt. Seriously, I am so envious that you get to drive and judge cars all day. I'm sure that it took you a long time and a lot of work to get there and I'm sure that this isn't your only job, but man would I love to do what you do.
I’m jealous of you Sir, you’re having way to much fun! I had the opportunity I drive a 850whp GTR and I was absolutely stunned and now selling current car to get one! Lol
The only problem with this car is that its design is nothing special. Unless you are a car enthusiast, this car wont stand out in a crowd. To most people, it looks like an old body style G35. There were times where I almost didnt notice its presence in public because it looks so bland and Im an extreme car enthusiast. Other than that, the car is a beast in every other aspect.
I like the fact that it isn't super flashy. It'd make it all the more satisfying when someone got in your reasonable looking vehicle then proceeds to shit their pants when they have suddenly gone from idle to 60 in not even 3 seconds.
John Shepard Well here is the thing with that. I have been in 500+ hp B5 S4 that looks plain to anyone who isnt a fan which did 0-60 in 3.6 for far less than the GT-R costs. The S4 is an example of a non flashy fast car that with 30-40k dollars you can tune to crazy speed. These kind of cars are too common. You dont want a 100k car to blend in with those cheaper cars. Part of being a super car is to stand out.
Well, to me the GT-R is flashy enough But, yeah, it wouldn't be my first pick if I was going for a big head turner. Obviously, you want the big names like Ferrari for that. Personally, I quite like the design of it. Regardless of price or specs, I like the less flashy looks of it.
That is incredible. pumped gas 91, 19 mpg, sweet. best GTR yet breathing fire off the exhaust. Amazing!!!! Thank you and thank the owner. Drive is the best for its' brutal truth. Ride on!!!
I like your posts a lot. He visto que tienes muchas veces la bandera espanola en la manga. Yo soy rumano pero me gusta mucho la forma de ser y comportarse de los espanoles, nuestra idioma se parece bastante siendo una idioma de origen latino. Aproposito, he vivido 7 anos en espana y puedo decir que es un pais y tambien un pueblo maravilloso. You are good, very good, keep good working!!
Here's some actual numbers. The Bugatti Veyron does a 1/4 mile in 10.2 seconds at around 135mph. This does it in 8.9 seconds at around 160mph. This is faster in terms of acceleration which, in America at least, matters much, much more than top speed.
David Morgan ppl alway say Bugatti is fastest bco. off top speed. it is np to get that speed, it only if wish to do it. det one:1 og to beat the shit out off veyron
A couple of corrections, Matt: 1. 962WHP probably on an RWD dyno. AWD dyno is more like 800WHP max on pump gas. Yes, you can get close to 900AWHP but on MS109 only. 2. VS stock 2013-2014 R35: both TQ and HP are lower by 100-150 between 1800 and 3700 rpm. How do I know - I own only and have dyno sheets to prove it.
yeah but that was the lowest of the AMS product and this is the best of switzer. If this guys gonna compare companies then why go all out with one and not the other. I have driven both and the alpha 12 is my favorite not say switzer is bad but i would have like to see him drive an alpha 12 to compare.
Wow i can't believe how awesome this channel is. Tuned is now my favorite show on Drive beating Chris (Sorry mate). Thank you for such an awesome vid. I also love how we can tell you read the comments and you reply to some of the stupid shit the benchracers are saying in your vids.
Simplement DIABOLIQUE !!! La meilleure voiture du monde selon moi. Certes une GTR modifiée par Switzer donc bien plus puissant que d'origine mais celle d'origine est tout autant fascinante (et puissante...).
Seriously my heart started racing when he really got into it and that Monster ROARED!!! Never ever had that happen while watch a freaking video of any other car!! WOW JUST FREAKING WOW!!!
Matt Farah got some of the best quotes ive ever heard about the GT-R, i think he is one of the few who understand what the GT-R is about. It is a car that you can drive everyday incognito (well almost), stop at a gas station and fuel it like any other mom's car, get groceries on your way back from work, and still be able to put a performance on the street that is impossible to achieve unless you are in an alien looking 7 figure car or have a trailer following you with racing gear and crew...
its the fact that it preforms so well against other supercars and its only 100,000 then you can tune it up to match the Hp of other cars and still be cheaper. Its very reliable, looks like a normal car and its all wheel drive. I love it.
You are a lucky man! I am a Porsche guy myself but I respect the GTR since it means Porsche cannot rest on its laurels and has to make even better 911s to make themselves relevant. I enjoy seeing more competition and especially seeing the Japanese make a great sports car. The NSX was good in the 1990s but they needed a new car to reinvigorate interest and GT-R is it. The styling is not great to me but the performance especially for 2012-2013 versions is astonishing. I'd still take a 911 GT3.
I love american muscle but me being a neutral car enthusiast.. The GTR is such an amazing piece of engineering, extremely impressive even when it is stock. It is definitely one of my dream cars.
If i had to choose between a GTR or the corvette c6 i would choose the vette, but as i watched this video im amazed at how one car can have all that HP and still put it down without much fuss. Big Kudos to NISSAN and by extension the Switzer team for creating this landmark car. It just takes the rule book, tear it up and toss out the window.
I wanted to find out out witch company tuned the gtr the best ....but i think for a daily driver the switzer is the way to go!!!!! so much power and the sound is insane.
Okay thanks! I really didn't know about that... Thanks for explaining ;-) Is there any chance on finding gas stations that offer 100+ octane(RON) in the States?
They were running it on 100 octane unleaded (100 octane AKI) and then they switched to the local SoCal 91 octane (91 AKI, or 95 RON), which is pretty terrible fuel but we can still make about 875-900awhp, or 1000HP at the crank, when using it.
because instead of spending our time calling people names on the internet, we go out and work hard to follow our dreams. And when you drive 90,000 miles a year, eating crappy road food and living out of a truck, you can't exactly lose weight.
Might not physicly own it but I built it and drove it to those times/mph's. It has all factory seats, full interior, carpets, stereo, TV etc so really nice on the open road but I do get your point in relation to most cars like that,
What rims were those? And honestly the car was so fast, but I personally think the sound of the car was extremely annoying, I heard no engine, all a bunch of distortion, however I would love to drive it.
it is the best vid. i've ever seen. truly. it seems that Mr. Farah and i have the same taste maybe because we came from the same origins - middle east.
Different rating system, 91 AKI (American method) is, if I remember correctly, 95 RON (which I think you use in the UK, we use it in Denmark and other parts of Europe at least). It's incredible that your cheap fuel is 98, in Denmark we have 95 as standard and then V-Power or stuff like that (which I think is ~100 depending on brand).
What people don't realize is that the states uses a different rating of fuel octane levels. In most countries we use RON which is where you see 98 and such. The states uses MON which the 91 is pretty much equivalent to 103 in the levels we all use
Yes I know that, I never said otherwise... It burns a lot quicker than gasolines does. I've seen a WRX get tuned on E85. That's why it is almost always necessary to get bigger injectors and a better pump to supply the extra fuel. Maxing out stock injectors/pump at 100% duty cycle isn't exactly efficient lol. My point was that it resists knock a lot better than the 91 octane crap we have here, or even 93 in other places.
They were testing it with race gas which means they were probably using C16 which is 117 AKI octane. Sweden uses a different octane scale (RON) compared to the U.S. (AKI) so it would have been on 119 RON octane using your guys' scale so it would have been much slower using 98 RON. 98 RON is 93 AKI so it is pretty close to what they put in at the end of the video.
2013 GTR i think has more than enough power for about $100K. just add an after market exhaust for a better note . 1100hp? ....well..unless you go to the track atleast twice a month otherwise, where would you use all this power? and how often?
You are confused between the two octane rating systems used in Aus and the US. The US and Canada use AKI and Australia uses RON. 85 AKI = 90 RON, 91 AKI = 95 RON and you can also get 94 AKI at some stations which is the same as our 98 (RON).
wheel horsepower is different then crank horsepower due to drivetrain loss. Rule of thumb is about a 12-15% loss depending on how efficiently the car puts down power.
If you can get a good budget, you should come to europe and review some Ruf, TechArt or Gemballa... Right ? just sugesting. btw, keep the good work. greetings from portugal
note that octane ratings in the states are different to europe - basically add 4-5 to there 91 to get a europe rating. They can get their 'super' which is 93, so a europe 98. Here in UK i can get a 99, and 100 on the continent :)
Matt probably has one of the best jobs in the world right there. No matter how much money he makes i would still do that job for 5 bucks and hour and live in a crappy apartment and in my opinion still have an amazing life. It would definitely be so easy to wake up in the morning thinking that he gets to drive a 962 whp car, let alone get paid for it.
usually the conventional power figures are what an engine produce. but for more info. they can give what power reaches the wheels after the hp loss in transmission, diff. etc.
And ppl say money can't buy happiness .
Buys you some sort of satisfaction, hardly ever will it actually make you “happy”. Coming from someone who has $347K in his account.. and that’s not even a lot
Jay Rodriguez bruh. Are u on a drug. 347k a lot of money. We’re not rich like u
heck yes that's a lot
Can money buy a jet ski? Have you ever seen someone riding a jet ski that wasn't smiling?
@@jayrodriguez3848 you're doing something wrong then😂😂
I NEVER get tired of watching him launch this beast of a GTR! He's reaction is PRICELESS!!!!! lmao
11 years after the video went posted and still amazed with the car! Thank you!!!
The things people say after driving a 1000WHEEL Horsepower car ...
"Ooweee DoggY! "LMFAO
1000hp is really like an orgasm,it makes you say some weird stuff and make promises to her you don't remember later.But like a 1000hp it feels sooooo gggoooddd.
I have been watching Matt F the host for couple of years now on multiple different shows. His way of reviewing the cars has changed and got way better. Keep up the good work.
I have to figure out a way to afford one of these !
there's always prostitution.
A$AP HULK he could sell himself to 100000 people for a dollar each. good idea
Then you'll need another 60,000 for the 1100hp package
A$AP HULK 😂😂😂
Bit coin
Lol, when I drove my 180HP opel corsa I thought that's fast. Nevermind xD
If I hit the lotto, THIS WILL BE my first purchase! Been wanting one for so long.
I just drove the 2013 GT500, and there was a lot more I could ask for. Like a real set of brakes and a chassis that didn't take a hop a foot to the side after hitting the smallest of bumps.
Toyota Supra and Nissan GTR are two best cars to tune the engine.
If toyota Supra was good at all they would still be making the car. Its just cheap as shit to upgrade because those junk cars are 20 years old. nothing special.
Jyan Lan You are clueless. In addition to the engine, Supra transmissions and rear differentials are still used as upgrades in engine swaps or even in Formula Drift cars because they're virtually bulletproof.
ErebosGR Just the transmission alone on Ebay is more than a good used car. and it's for good reason, those Getrag sixes are awesome
Only idiots buy car parts off eBay.
Jyan Lan I'm pretty sure we all know who the idiot is here.
they are very similar products, he was just saying it says volumes about Switzer as a company because they were willing to work on maintaining, servicing, and repairing an AMS tuned car.
this guy has the best life
i LOVE Nissan
Isn't it funny this little V6 that's less than half the size of an average american V8 is completely dominating the car world?
you to realise this car has TWO TURBO's bigger than your head?
Kenshin Himura plain v8 vs twin turbo??? cylinders and engine size hardly have anything to do with power these days almost any engine can be made to put down crazy numbers ive seen 1000+ hp 4 cylinder engines explain that
Wait what "average" american V8 has at least 7.6 litres?? Fucking moron
Kenshin Himura In physical bulk it's bigger than any American V8 in production today. More moving parts too by far, even without counting the turbos and intercoolers. However, what does a GT-R make bone stock? 480hp or so? Not that different to the naturally-aspirated GM 6.2 does today.
that's engineering for ya!
No, it's the differential that makes the tires "spin" together. The live axle means that if one tire dips into a pothole or goes over a bump, the other tire will tilt on an angle and not be flat anymore, because the two wheels are connected by a solid piece of metal. In an independent suspension-equipped car, one tire can remain perfectly flat while the other tire moves about over rough tarmac, something that's not possible in a live axle car. Because of this, Mustangs behave badly on rough road
carbon fibre backseats saving 1 pound... really useful with a 300 pound driver^^
The driver should burn some fat off, it would be a better weight saving idea.
Marty Lynchian Jealous much ? Maybe because he knows what he's doing, he's a good presenter and he has a personality that appeals to people enough to lend him their priceless cars to thrash the shit out of...
And you ? What do you bring to the table ?
You sound like someone that pulls a face when having to accept grubby change from those that you believe to be below you...
I suggest that you look through the backlog of episodes and learn a little, not only from Matt's reactions but particularly from the reactions of those he meets toward him and his enthusiasm. I'm sure many of them would bear testament to his abilities and to his qualities as a presenter.
Perhaps then you'll find something missing in that universe in which you reside...
By the way, double check your spelling, your grammar and your initial use of the English language. It gives away the fact that you're actually not quite as elite as you would have others believe, that your high end sports car is more than likely something rather more mundane and that you are, in fact, tediously boring...
: )
Marty Lynchian
Someone sounds a tad bit jealous lol.
Marty Lynchian are you fucking blind? This guy is white.
GTR has such a unique sound
Recognizable from a distance if you've ever had one in your city, a tuned one especially
if your having a bad day you can just..... 7:26
[SPEED INTENSIFIES]
Lol yess
Awesome video! Don't worry too much about the price dudes, in Australia you can't even get a bone stock GTR for $140 000. They cost upwards of $170 000 from the factory. You guys have got it extremely good.
Awesome build, but I hate the chalk board finish. Honestly, why are matte finishes so popular? It's impossible to maintain AND it looks shit.
Matt summed it up pretty well later in the series, It's all about balance and the experience a car leaves with you. Who needs 1100hp that you can never fully tap on the street, when you can have a third or a quarter of the power that you can more readily utilize in a lightweight chassis that is properly sorted and deliver a unforgettable driving experience.
nothing like a hairy bald guy getting excited about horsepower hahahahah love it.. im bald too
it's 1000 on the crank, 880 on the wheels when it's on pump gas, and 962 on the wheels, 1100 crank when it's race gas :)
who says 962hp to the wheels is slow?
Went out to the Switzer facility yesterday to review the USE package, and to assess their credibility as an operation in meeting my needs. I walked away from the afternoon completely impressed with the team, and the car was fantastic. Needless to say, I'll be receiving a 2014 USE model in March if all goes right! Go Switzer!
"4 wheel burnout; straight to jail" LOL
Those taillights are a dream!!!
maybe you dont like your wife... maybe you prefer jail.. lmao
Wow, what a car. I would KILL to have your job Matt. Seriously, I am so envious that you get to drive and judge cars all day. I'm sure that it took you a long time and a lot of work to get there and I'm sure that this isn't your only job, but man would I love to do what you do.
$140,000 for that GT-R, or $1,000,000 for a Veyron SS. C'mon...
I choose Venom GT for $1,000,000+ USD range.
SuperNuclearDeath Fair enough :D
gtr
both are shit cars
veyron ss is 4 million usd buddy
I’m jealous of you Sir, you’re having way to much fun! I had the opportunity I drive a 850whp GTR and I was absolutely stunned and now selling current car to get one! Lol
Everytime i watch this video i get goosebumps at 5:55. Every fucking time D:
that is one of the most brutal exhaust tones I have ever heard!
The only problem with this car is that its design is nothing special. Unless you are a car enthusiast, this car wont stand out in a crowd. To most people, it looks like an old body style G35. There were times where I almost didnt notice its presence in public because it looks so bland and Im an extreme car enthusiast. Other than that, the car is a beast in every other aspect.
I agree. Ugly Car. Performance wise.. It almost has no peers. My personal fave is the R33 appearance wise....
I like the fact that it isn't super flashy. It'd make it all the more satisfying when someone got in your reasonable looking vehicle then proceeds to shit their pants when they have suddenly gone from idle to 60 in not even 3 seconds.
John Shepard Well here is the thing with that. I have been in 500+ hp B5 S4 that looks plain to anyone who isnt a fan which did 0-60 in 3.6 for far less than the GT-R costs.

I easily noticed these cars everytime i saw one. They look good to me.
No, I can't see through them. It makes it more of a challenge to drive on windy roads with zero visibility.
Shell gas. 😎👍
That is incredible. pumped gas 91, 19 mpg, sweet. best GTR yet breathing fire off the exhaust. Amazing!!!! Thank you and thank the owner. Drive is the best for its' brutal truth. Ride on!!!
loving this GTR. Picked mine up earlier this year. check out my vid. Will do a review on it soon
I like your posts a lot. He visto que tienes muchas veces la bandera espanola en la manga. Yo soy rumano pero me gusta mucho la forma de ser y comportarse de los espanoles, nuestra idioma se parece bastante siendo una idioma de origen latino. Aproposito, he vivido 7 anos en espana y puedo decir que es un pais y tambien un pueblo maravilloso. You are good, very good, keep good working!!
This car is faster than the Bugatti's
you sure kid?
victor chung Fans can believe whatever they want.
Note to self: Never argue about the GTR on youtube.
Michael John Lopez many car is. its just top speed that make the car "faster" bugatti is slow vs car that not fokus 100% top speed.
Here's some actual numbers. The Bugatti Veyron does a 1/4 mile in 10.2 seconds at around 135mph. This does it in 8.9 seconds at around 160mph. This is faster in terms of acceleration which, in America at least, matters much, much more than top speed.
David Morgan ppl alway say Bugatti is fastest bco. off top speed. it is np to get that speed, it only if wish to do it. det one:1 og to beat the shit out off veyron
A couple of corrections, Matt:
1. 962WHP probably on an RWD dyno. AWD dyno is more like 800WHP max on pump gas. Yes, you can get close to 900AWHP but on MS109 only.
2. VS stock 2013-2014 R35: both TQ and HP are lower by 100-150 between 1800 and 3700 rpm.
How do I know - I own only and have dyno sheets to prove it.
You should drive AMS GTR better build by far
I agree, for around the amount of money you can get a way better package from AMS.
This guy owned an ams alpha 6 before this one and chose switzer
yeah but that was the lowest of the AMS product and this is the best of switzer. If this guys gonna compare companies then why go all out with one and not the other. I have driven both and the alpha 12 is my favorite not say switzer is bad but i would have like to see him drive an alpha 12 to compare.
Very true.
WoW... Puts my M5 to shame & looks just as cool. Good Job on the Video, Awesome Tuner... Like Anton said, Sahweeeet!
anyone else think the GTR looks like a refrigerator?
ModernDinosaur I dunno man, guess you have a pretty cool fridge.
a pretty fuckin fast fridge too
+ModernDinosaur if your fridge has CRAZY LAUNCH control & goes 0-60 in under 2.5 seconds then yep its a fridge.
I mean, it can still be a fridge. It's just a ballistically fast fridge. bud385
+ModernDinosaur dude, can I get a ride in your fridge ?
its faster than mine.
Wow i can't believe how awesome this channel is. Tuned is now my favorite show on Drive beating Chris (Sorry mate). Thank you for such an awesome vid. I also love how we can tell you read the comments and you reply to some of the stupid shit the benchracers are saying in your vids.

"A quarter mile....STRAIGHT to jail." I laughed too hard.
its the fact that it preforms so well against other supercars and its only 100,000 then you can tune it up to match the Hp of other cars and still be cheaper. Its very reliable, looks like a normal car and its all wheel drive. I love it.
the way you say: it makes 1000hp... on pump gas
just made my day
You are a lucky man! I am a Porsche guy myself but I respect the GTR since it means Porsche cannot rest on its laurels and has to make even better 911s to make themselves relevant.

Every Nissan GTR video, I'm convinced :D
I can't wait to get my GTR next month. SOOOO EXCITED!
Were you guys on the back streets of oxnard/camarillo/ojai when filming this? It all looks familiar to me :)
It has a tune for 93 as well as 91, the only difference is like 20 hp.
i'd be interested in hearing what Matt thinks of this versus the henessey venom ?
If i had to choose between a GTR or the corvette c6 i would choose the vette, but as i watched this video im amazed at how one car can have all that HP and still put it down without much fuss.
Big Kudos to NISSAN and by extension the Switzer team for creating this landmark car. It just takes the rule book, tear it up and toss out the window.
the endings for the tuned videos are awesome :D
I wanted to find out out witch company tuned the gtr the best ....but i think for a daily driver the switzer is the way to go!!!!! so much power and the sound is insane.
I had the pleasure of having fun in a GTR last year and that was a wild ride, I can't imagine driving this thing...nice!
Okay thanks! I really didn't know about that... Thanks for explaining ;-)
Is there any chance on finding gas stations that offer 100+ octane(RON) in the States?

jesus the launch.... terrifying, it's like a shuttle takeoff
Might not physicly own it but I built it and drove it to those times/mph's. It has all factory seats, full interior, carpets, stereo, TV etc so really nice on the open road but I do get your point in relation to most cars like that,
the end was awesome haha, 4wheel burnout...straight to jail.
Hey Matt, where are you driving this car. I drive in the Malibu canyons and the roads you film from seem even better.
great channel guys! keep going!
here is a man who truly understands the circle of life and the importance of decisions.
Damn! I thought I was watching a late 2021/22 video til I looked at the date. Fark!!
Rocketship Godzilla from Japan! ,,,great review as usual
What rims were those? And honestly the car was so fast, but I personally think the sound of the car was extremely annoying, I heard no engine, all a bunch of distortion, however I would love to drive it.
it is the best vid. i've ever seen. truly. it seems that Mr. Farah and i have the same taste maybe because we came from the same origins - middle east.
An awesome dude who makes videos on TH-cam, streaming right now a race to prestige on BO II :D
What a machine. One of my favorite cars like ever. Amazing stuff!
Different rating system, 91 AKI (American method) is, if I remember correctly, 95 RON (which I think you use in the UK, we use it in Denmark and other parts of Europe at least).
It's incredible that your cheap fuel is 98, in Denmark we have 95 as standard and then V-Power or stuff like that (which I think is ~100 depending on brand).
What people don't realize is that the states uses a different rating of fuel octane levels. In most countries we use RON which is where you see 98 and such. The states uses MON which the 91 is pretty much equivalent to 103 in the levels we all use
Yes I know that, I never said otherwise... It burns a lot quicker than gasolines does. I've seen a WRX get tuned on E85. That's why it is almost always necessary to get bigger injectors and a better pump to supply the extra fuel. Maxing out stock injectors/pump at 100% duty cycle isn't exactly efficient lol. My point was that it resists knock a lot better than the 91 octane crap we have here, or even 93 in other places.
They were testing it with race gas which means they were probably using C16 which is 117 AKI octane. Sweden uses a different octane scale (RON) compared to the U.S. (AKI) so it would have been on 119 RON octane using your guys' scale so it would have been much slower using 98 RON. 98 RON is 93 AKI so it is pretty close to what they put in at the end of the video.
"Becouse you don't want to burn it when it shoots fire" This comment alone made me believe this car is a beast.
damn, when a car gives a full grown man the giggles, you know it's good.
2013 GTR i think has more than enough power for about $100K. just add an after market exhaust for a better note . 1100hp? ....well..unless you go to the track atleast twice a month otherwise, where would you use all this power? and how often?
Things we don't know in Europe. Thanks for sharing the information.
You are confused between the two octane rating systems used in Aus and the US. The US and Canada use AKI and Australia uses RON. 85 AKI = 90 RON, 91 AKI = 95 RON and you can also get 94 AKI at some stations which is the same as our 98 (RON).
wheel horsepower is different then crank horsepower due to drivetrain loss. Rule of thumb is about a 12-15% loss depending on how efficiently the car puts down power.
"Maybe, ya know things aren't goin good. Call up Switzer and then just....BRAGGHHHHH WAAAAAHHH!" hahaha awesome.
BUSHIDO BROWN, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. YOU MAKE NO SENSE....
That sound can cure depression! 🙌🏽
big fan keep up the great work!!
If you can get a good budget, you should come to europe and review some Ruf, TechArt or Gemballa... Right ? just sugesting.
btw, keep the good work. greetings from portugal
note that octane ratings in the states are different to europe - basically add 4-5 to there 91 to get a europe rating.
They can get their 'super' which is 93, so a europe 98. Here in UK i can get a 99, and 100 on the continent :)
Matt probably has one of the best jobs in the world right there. No matter how much money he makes i would still do that job for 5 bucks and hour and live in a crappy apartment and in my opinion still have an amazing life. It would definitely be so easy to wake up in the morning thinking that he gets to drive a 962 whp car, let alone get paid for it.
oh god, gtrs have been my favorite in the whole world. no other car do i want if i were able to afford them.
usually the conventional power figures are what an engine produce. but for more info. they can give what power reaches the wheels after the hp loss in transmission, diff. etc.
god. that launch looked brutal!
1000Hp. A even faster way to make it to the next stop light. Yaaaaa!!!!
