Big, heavy, comfortable GT car with 4 seats, a big trunk, power everything, air conditioning, ect etc.... And yet they manage to achieve such a blazingly fast time.. Simply astonishing. I'd like to see what Nissan could do with an uncompromisingly stripped down, superlight, 2 seat, track focused car!
Incredible! The Nürburgring is one scary-fast track! No room for error! This driver has balls of steel, not to mention tremendous driving skills. I loved hearing him describe his record setting lap, pointing out "mistakes' which lesser drivers wouldn't even realize or see. Bravo! (What is evern more mind boggling, seeing this record lap is that, according to F1 Racing magazine (June 2006) BMW engineers estimated that a BMW-Sauber F1.06 could lap in under 5:15, which equals to an average of 237 km/h. Nearly 2 minutes faster than this Nismo is hard to conceive -- but if you watch Schumacher's cruise around the 'Ring, in that famous/infamous lap, the effortless speed of the F1 is clearly evident, and you can tell Schumacher is not really pushing the car at all. Of course, estimates are one thing; actually conquering Nürburgring another! Would love to see what an F1 set up for this track could really do!)
***** I have not heard it was modified. The only real critical stuff I've heard is how long they spent there tuning and testing, that the car isn't in production so it shouldn't have production car credit, and that some of it (like the mesh hood) will not be be an option on the car because it may not meet pedestrian crash test standards. No idea about the hood myself. Don't really care. It was a great run anyway.
***** Nobody is saying it's modified, Infiniti boy. They're saying it's the Track Pack Edition, which costs a fairly insane amount of money...and it is.
***** No, some are saying it was modified. I read a report that said they used a lot of different parts, including a remapped ECU. Great timing on the lap too with launch coming up..... *cough*hype*cough*
It's modified in that it isn't a regular Nismo. It has extra performance features, but those features are offered to the public. So, it's not modified, but it is extremely limited and extremely expensive.
r34 designed to be king of the streets and it is r35 designed to be king of supercars and so far so good r36 will probably come with an hybrid technology and ligthened chasis to take its place among hypercars.
muratordu61 Agreed !! Herd a few rumors from my Japanese friends that it will use similar technology as P1 and 918. Will have hybrid and motor engine and power are estimated at 799hp combined.
+Salman Muhit I don´t think this would be a good idea. The car already is quite heavy. I guess the car would weigh more than 4000 pounds/2000 kilo with the battery packs and the electric engine included which is to much for fast cornering.
R35 is what you call automotive performance perfection. How on earth do Japanese engineers keep making it faster? All this R35 Nismo needs is a Porsche 918 hp boost and it will smoke it out. Simply give this car a Michelin Cup tires (like the Vette/Viper and other high-end performance cars) and it will crack 7 min barrier. Absolutely astonishing perfection of a car. WOW! O_O
The tires it used were similar to the Michelin PSC. And this is the Time Attack. Not a production vehicle, faster than the GT-R Nismo Track Pack. Not road/emissions legal.
Really good job! Put street legal Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 on that car and it will break the 7 minute barrier. Good job, Nissan and Nismo. Incredibly fast car. And congrats to Michael Krumm. Very well driven.
when manufacturers are chasing the fastest production car lap record for the nurburgring and spending millions in order to do so, that by changing the tyres would take over 8 seconds off the lap time and they decided not to bother?
Mighty Congratulations Nissan/Nismo for achieving the fastest mass production Nurburgring ring time. For the max down force achieved was the rear wing at the highest or lowest setting? Also love the amber LCD display very racey!
Why do you think there are so many "fanboys" because its quite possibly the greatest road legal car in the world. All things considered, value, comfort, reliability, etc.
***** As you have stated, ALL the above is true about this GT-R. I don't pay attention to keyboard warriors since most of them will never own any super car and are simply fanboys. I also dismiss people that have no REAL-WORLD clue about racing a car but have LOTS of experience reading about them and selecting what they want to believe instead of experiencing it and THEN making informed choices. Let's just say that Nissan put MUCH more effort into getting a great Nordschleife time than ANY other manufacturer but it IS a great time, none-the-less. The thing about it is, most buyers will NEVER run a track similar to the Ring. The Ring is VERY rough, VERY long and does not represent anything similar to any other racing facility in existence today. It's a cool place to run a high performance car and has a rich history but in reality, it is one of a kind and not reality for most buyers to ever experience.
Look at all the haters hahaha it could be the zr1 going backwards with 150 width tires Made of wood. Stop hating and admire a beautiful bit of machinery. This is how innovation happens, so let it but hurts
Sorry but, innovation happened a while ago when a 918 spyder in street tires that can actually do around 20 miles without burning a drop of fuel laped the ring in 6:57 minutes. That's innovation.
João Fernandes 1. The Porsche costs about 5 times as much as the Nismo GT-R and is a very rare super sports car while the GT-R is a mass production car. 2. The Porsche could do 20 miles without fuel if you charged it and never rev up over 3000rpm 3. The Porsche would have been slower than the GT-R on the second lap as the batteries were already running low. 4. There is no real definition of street tires... Porsche might just be putting racing tires on the stock 918
MusikTeleVision1995 1. Innovation, perfection and record braking times comes with a cost. 2. Revving it up only till 3000 or not you can still do 20 miles not burning any fuel. And still beat any car around so far on the Nurburgring. 3.The Porsche will be faster every lap because it regenerates enough energy under braking to always have juice, just like the kers of an F1. And only a professional driver is able to completely deplete it at the end of the big straight and by that time you have a hard braking for the last corners so more juice again(the electrical part was designed having that in consideration) 4.And no they didn't put racing tires, they used the stock intended tires for the 918. And finally the absolute record of the Nurburgring was set by a Porsche 30 years ago and counting...this is Porsche backyard. Deal with it for once!
João Fernandes agree and the nismo gtr is aim for fast lap in Nurburgring. yes, Nurburgring ONLY!!! all the setting to optimize for lap time in Nurburgring, including many very good race drivers. but for other supercars, they arent only built for Nurburgring.
MusikTeleVision1995 but somehow f1 cars have energy available every lap...tard. Nissan faster in corners, nissan faster in the end...but the result, nissan slower.
Awesome great achievement Michael Krumm & Nissan Team! Congratulations!!! I can really imagine the pressure trying to break record, having no cage in the car driving with these speeds very close on the limit. Great commantary as well. :) How much do you think could have shaved off if the lap was perfect to your standards?
omg that is an incredibly fast car..his favorite section of the ring is also mine..that consecutive downhill S is pretty technical but so rewarding when you get it right..congrats to the team
I have 2 R32 Nissan GTRs and my new 2018 R35 will arrive here in March so i know a little about Nissan GTRs I have done track time in them and know that they are not an easy car to drive fast until you learn their how to manage them. This lap by Michael Krumm is very very good and if you listen to his commentary you will hear where he knows he made a mistake, some of you may not realise that the commentator is the driver. Yes this car is somewhat modified but so is just about every other supercar that runs at this circuit. this is a 4 seat V6 engined AWD heavy car, give credit where it is due. The modern Nissan GTR is an incredible piece of engineering in any form.
the nismo is not a mass production car its a limited production its actually a after market car that is tuned / modded by nismo but sold as a package. for your other questions the mclaren p1 has not recorded a lap time yet. the gtr is not in same bracket as bugatti or p1 due to a few MAJOR things including styling (not exotic / original) driving involvement (computer hard and numb) name (does draw as much recognition) driving "feel" (most people want to feel the road and the turns, not let the computer handle that) weight (its very heavy and makes it feel big on the track) sound (90% of the noise you will hear is all the air being crammed down its throat) over all feel as a car (most people dont feel "special"(lol) in a gtr which is why alot of people buy supercars in the 1st place. why do you think lamborghini gallardo / aventador and corvette zr1 / z06 both out sold GTR (black, premium, base) lastly i am still not sure what shallow person would buy a car Just because it makes good numbers...
well for one it was missing the Bilstein sign until recently. Porsche 956 made a faster time than this in the 1980's even if its not. its like why even buy this? lol this car is for dumb-asses. its a fast production car lmfao. it can't even do 200 mph without a tune. corvette makes a better car than this hands down.
hey, i used the video after i edit it and gave the credit to your channel and linked it .It's GT-R NISMO real life nurbugring lap vs my GTR NISMO Gran-Turismo sport lap . The video on my channel .. THANK YOU
All you GT-R haters need to realise that the GT-R R35 platform is almost 10 years old, and it took other car manufacturers almost 8 years since the release of the R35 to catch up to the GT-R. The R35 GT-R even 9 years later can still hold it's own against other cars like the C7 Zo6 that are brand new platforms. That achievement alone demonstrates what an engineering marvel the R 35 is!! Cannot wait to see what Nissan has in store for their new R36 GT-R platform! And this is coming from a die-hard porsche fan.
no, the car doesn not hold up vs a z06, and yes we can all agree the GT-R was a great car, it was it's price point that was the most impressive. Nissan never really had the edge on brands like porsche in terms of performance tho and could never quite live up to the extreme hypercars^ good car tho
sorry to let you down but dodge viper made it to 7:01.03 in 2017 soooo yeah :P....also I dont hate the car. What I do hate is people who think the gtr is the fastest car in the world and stuff like that ;-;
This time was no surprise to me. The Nismo was built and developed by Williams. They know a thing or two about making cars go round tracks quickly. Still great achievement though.
This the best car ever.. The porsche 918 sypder did a better time only because of the 887 hp engine. If they equalize the power/weight factor on both cars, the porsche would get destroyed badly. 10 secs difference is nothing in a 20km track. The Gt-R is way less powered and also 100 kg heavier (220 lbs). Nissan gt-r nismo 595 hp / 1740 kg. Porsche 918 spyder 887 / 1640kg. So, basically, Nissan can destroy the porsche anyday. And Nissan nismo costs 150k USD, the porsche, 929k. BIG LOL.
8 secs in nurburgring is nothing man.. If you consider the big straight line.. Horse power talks a lot.. If nissan tune the engine up a little bit, it can be beaten easily.
FrankieJames7 It is not a hypercar and yet it still outperforms most of them. 7:08 on the green hell is no joke, hypercar or not. That is quite an astonishing feat for non slick tires. It's just a matter of time before it goes under the 7 minute mark. Not even a lot of hyper and supercars can claim that. That is just how good road legal cars are coming from the factory nowadays. Imagine this vehicle with some slight modifications and weight loss. Under 7 minutes for sure. And please don't insult others based on what they may or may not like. If you don't like the gtr and "gtr guys" then so be it, you don't have to yell and tell it to the whole world and put them down. By doing that you are just being hypocritical and are what you said exactly to Rodrigo, "Just shut the fuck up, gtr guys are the biggest faggots in the car world hands fuckin down." I think you know who the biggest faggot is. Haters, haters like you.
This is insanely fast. This car can stretch 310km/h on the straight line of nurburgring. You can find commentary at 7:11, I don't think this is just due to powertrain upgrade, should be otherwise gear ratio redistribution, weight reduction of entire drivetrain. Nismo really do know what they are doing.
Nissan should make an "lightweight version" of this car, more carbon fiber, no rear seats, etc he is going incredibly quick but you can still see that this is a heavy car. They car is visibly fighting its own weight which is why it looks so violent. If you're on the track this is acceptable because you sort of went out there for this purpose. But on a nice twisty backroad this would be annoying and not all that enjoyable. Still love the GTR though lol
+frank rs They purposely made it that weight,something to do with better cornering on slower corners as the weight is pushing down on the tires and they say the combined weight with the downforce on fast corners is equivalent to a Formula 1 car..for example the GTR is 3800lbs + 400lbs downforce @ 100mph = 4200lbs Formula 1 weight is 1000lbs + 3200lbs downforce @ 100mph = 4200lbs...some shit like that.
+The Opinionator You have no idea what you are talking about. The radical sr3 is like 20 seconds quicker around this track than the Nismo GTR. Weight is detrimental to handling at any speed. F1 cars can lap this track in way under 6 minutes.
I bought a 240 after growing up with my dad's 280s (bought another and still have them both). I bought a G35 after... well... I saw one for the first time, so beautiful (I still have it, as well). Now the GTR. Not sure I can afford that but I don't know that I'd ever want another car after. Maybe some day...
I love how Japanese celebrate amazing results... they're sooo calm! If they were italian they would have scream loud all toghether jumping all over the pit lane, clapping and so on... ahah! (I'm italian.. so I would do that!)
Oh, you know much about Giapponese. It may be difficult for many Italian people to find how happy those Nissan engineers were! "Why they don't celebrate more?!"... or something. Yeah, as you see, they are super happy and screaming INSIDE! And I'm sure Michael Krumm knows it well, too. (I'm Japanese and I also love how Italian celebrate!)
im amazed they can make such a powerful and heavy car handle around the track like it does. I mean seriously they gave it more power and it handles like this around the Green Hell, thats awesome
The ACR is a good car for sure. But it got more horsepower per tonne, torque per tonne, tire that Dunlop GT600 will never matches, load more down force at every speed (220lbs max vs 1500lbs) and lower center of gravity did it in 7:12, GTR Nismo did it 4 seconds faster. I bet there must be something to do with electronic suspension and gearing coz AWD affect when throttle applied. There's many corners here doesn't allow any throttle while turning, so AWD affect maybe 1/2 second to 1 second (rough estimate). Not to mention ACR is above GTR's performance level (GTR is not ACR's competitor) But the result is ACR can't beat the Nismo with all those good shit. Both good cars! Show less
Nissan GT-R NISMO 2015 says "bye bye" to all models from this makes: -Lamborghini -Ferrari -Koenigsegg -A lot of Porsches (except the 918 for the moment) -McLaren -Lexus -Ferrari -Bugatti -Pagani -Mercedes -Gumpert -Dodge (Viper) and a lot of more models............ NISSAN GT-R IS SIMPLY......... THE F*CKING KING !!!!!!!!!
watch the Nissan Nismo at the 2015 and 2016 12 hour race at Bathurst Australia where all the bullshit ends to fast for the Porsche turbos Audi Lambos Mclaren bentleys mercedes and its only a quarter of the price of these cars
So Nissan uses some modified 'time attack' GTR which will actually never go on sale and even Motortrend has confirmed the Nismo GTR will not be as fast as this 'time attack' gtr, but yet we have comments from the Nissan camp stating how the GTR is better than everything on the planet... *facepalm*
innie721 sigh...again, this 'time attack' version is never going on sale, the Nismo package that will be offered to the public is *not* this car that set the lap time (confirmed by Motortrend). It will be slower than this car...please do some research, many posters have already pointed this out below. So basically any manufacturer can do this, set up their top echelon sports car on steroids, a 'ringer time attack' car and set blistering fast lap times. Please read the motor trend article that was published on the Nismo, Why do you think Porsche called them out few years ago?? Because any manufacturer who has a long list of achievements like Porsche does know when the people are been conned by a lie. Although motor trend made some facts available to the public about this 'time attack' GTR, there is still a lot of in-clarity around this 'time attack' GTRs setup.
osirisvb Typical Porsche fan getting his pants in a twist. This exact version of the Nismo with the williams F1 aero package will be available for purchase. It doesn't have a name yet but some are calling it a track pack Nismo model. Apparently, there will be a base nismo model and this time attack version.
Tobi Ogunsanwo Nope, its not Tobi, stop lying to me and to yourself. A very reputable magazine has already confirmed this is a 'time attack' modified GTR which will not be the same Nismo model that sells on the show room floors. If I am the only one saying this, then you can call me a porsche fanboi or w/e you want, but there are many people who have read the article from Motortrend and have come to the same conclusion, that Nissan has not been very honest about their ring test cars in the past, this is why a reputable company like Porsche called them out for conning the masses. This is one of Nissan's 'test ringer' cars not a production model, they released this time as a PR stunt, just to raise the hype around their Nismo package launch....
yes, love Porsche turbo S, also I felt lucky that Corvette fangirls didn't blow up my inbox yet!lol Still love both Turbo S and GTR! I should change Porsche to corvette in my topic!
I don't hate the GT-R. Far from it. The GT-R is a giant slayer, alongside the ZR1 and Viper. These three cars have shown that paying $300,000 for a car makes you an absolute fool. But that doesn't change the fact that THIS GT-R was built and tuned for the 'Ring, and nothing else. It also doesn't change the fact that the GT-R has been aged for several years. It's performance is admirable, to be sure, but it's falling behind. Increases in power can only go so far. The competition keeps getting faster on the track while the GT-R only keeps improving 0-60 times. The GT-R is a pig. Everybody knows it. Can you imagine how GOOD this car could be if it weighed a few hundred pounds less and ditched the under-steer-inducing AWD system? And have you ridden in a GT-R? It rides about as smooth as a sled on a double black diamond... And for the record, the LFA is one of my all time most hated cars. I simply don't get the point of such a car. They sit there and tout how much engineering is in it, and yet it's slower than any supercar that has a pricetag that high....It's a ridiculously slow car for how much it costs. $500,000 would buy you a couple of GT3 cars...or a whole fleet of cars that slaughter it (MP4-12C, Viper, GT-R, Corvette)...
Adeum Deus Those who've used the GT-R in folk races like the Targa Tasmania Road Rally will disagree with you. (in fact the GT-R won that race several times, beating out purpose built rally cars like the Evo and Impreza, as well as its main rival in the said race, the Lambourghini Gallardo).
“Time Attack” car displayed in the camouflage has several additional upgrades. The engine is tuned differently with identical 600-hp and 481-lb-ft horsepower and torque peaks, but the curves are slightly fatter. The AWD system’s torque biasing program is tweaked slightly. The aerodynamics package also differs in a couple very meaningful ways that will likely erode that 0.27 Cd claimed for the mainstream model. The rear wing stands quite a bit taller; there’s an aero fence running along the rear edge of the hood, and the front fenders have little aero “whiskers.” Many of these upgrades will likely find their way into the Nismo Track edition (or whatever they call it), though it’s not clear whether the aero fence on the hood could pass pedestrian crash standards or whether the tweaked engine could be made clean enough to be legal." People. This is not the GT-R Nismo that will be for sale. This is not a production car. This is modified.
I see this video for my fist time in 2022 🙂 amazing driving skills and excellent work of the nissan and nismo team. wow. this car is a rocket but you have to handle it !
+Shotgun Arms - Not quite true - I regularly track my MY2013 GTR. That Nismo is handling differently from mine.... and goodness is it fast.. The big problem for me on tight tracks is braking - the standard GTR brakes are not very good and the car is heavy. I dont think the Nismo has carbon ceramic as standard, but I wonder whether this one did..?
It's crazy how easy the car handles the bumps even at well over 200 km/h. I don't see any street car beating this anytime soon, not even the big McLaren or the LaFerrari.
Too bad it's not a production vehicle like the ZR1. Plus the ZR1 has a manual trans, RWD, and far less electronic aid. So it actually takes great skill to drive.
all i can see is excuses. the gtr is a better car hands down. zr1 is behind on technology and aid. and you will see the newer version will have alot more of that stuff that you hating on in the new zr1 lol. manuals are almost extinct, electronic aid is being added more and more to every car.
Behind on technology? Is that why the ZR1's self adjusting magnetorheological dampers were so good, that Ferrari purchased the system from Chevy/GM to use on every Ferrari from the 458 onward, yet they still don't have a vehicle with a better Ring time than the ZR1? Some people just prefer a real, full driving experience with 3 pedals and minimal aid so they can develop real skill. The ZR1 is made for those people. It doesn't have to rely on as many aids, and the fact that it's only 1 second slower than the GT-R's real ring time makes it that more impressive. And allow me to reiterate that this car that has set this 7:08 is a modified car that won't be sold to the public. The 7:18 is the GT-R's real legitimate time.
Vitaly Gusar The only thing the Dodge Viper ACR had was what? ABS in terms of technology. That car was the fastest running car on the ring for a L O N G time, faster than a GTR by far and it had a manual trans and RWD. Your argument is invalid. If you say that the technology is so superior, "Shitty American Muscle" shouldn't even be able to come close to this, or be in competition with it at all, but we are.
***** The Viper ACR was not exactly stock either. Among others, it used special tires (Michelin R-Compound types that get grippier as they get hotter, and are almost as good as slicks, hence the term Super-Slick tires as indicated in the Wikipedia page). As opposed to the GTR that used runflat all weather tires.
Even if I could afford any car I wanted I'd have a few of these. It's an unbelievably awesome piece of engineering. Out performs cars that cost so much more and that should on paper beat it.
wot.motortrend.com/1311_2015_nissan_gtr_nismo_has_staggering_600_hp.html Read this link. Nissan isn't pulling a car off the "volume production" line and running it on the ring! This car is not in any way shape or form a true representation of a street automobile. No wonder Porsche called them liars a few years back!
www.bbc.com/autos/story/20131121-one-mind-bendingly-quick-nissan There’s no word on prices for the even gnarlier Track Pack version (which gets more aero, 50kg less mass, revised dampers, different ECU settings and is responsible for that silly Nürburgring lap time), but we’d guess about £10k more. Nismo’s only making 200 this year though, so be quick.
Don't take me wrong but, ok it's a really good time that was set there but...where is the innovation? A Radical SR8(as simple as a machine can be) can do faster than that and you can(hardly) use it on roads because is street legal. We all know by now the 918 Spyder did it in 6:57, and it's a car which can do around 20 miles without spending a drop of fuel, and that's innovation!
Don't make me smack the shit out of your stupid face. 1.918 is not a production car, 2.918 did on pilot cup tires GTR did it on Run flat radials. And it is a mass production car.
1.the gtr nismo is limited edition just like the 918 2.yes it is the tires used by gt's but is still the tires the car will come equiped with, because they are road legal tires. Bam! You are as dumb as a rock,

車のポテンシャルの高さも勿論だが、
マシーン性能の限界ギリギリまで絞り出している。
このドライバーの技量はまさに神業。
I love how the car at the end is left and the engine is so quiet like nothing happened. Beautiful lap. ;)
車も凄いけれど、ミハエルクルムのドライビングも素晴らしい！あなたのお陰でこんな凄い記録が出たのでは。世界中のスーパーカーメーカーも差をつけられたので焦っていることでしょう。それだけGTRとチームの凄さが記録で証明されています。NISSAN GTR NISMO 万歳！
世界中のスーパーカーメーカーですか？
9月にポルシェ918スパイダーは6分57秒を出してますが…。
もちろん知っています。その車は、この値段でこのような性能何ですか？何台販売予定の量産車ですか。そこまで考えての反論ですか？
Katsuaki Yamamoto いや、スーパーカーというカテゴリーを持ち出されたのはそちらではないですか。値段がどうというのは言い訳にしか思えませんが。そもそもこのNISMO自体庶民の手の届く価格のクルマではありませんし。
また918は918台予定ではありますが量産車ですよ。決してワンオフとかではありません。1000台以上作らないと量産車とは認めないというレギュレーションでもあるなら別ですが。
Calde Ailis
「量産車最速」って言葉を定義したのはGT-Rにラップタイムを抜かれたポルシェなんですけどね。
shouko mikura Calde Ailisさんのかみつき方も割とどうでもいいですけどね。
Fantastic drive, Michael Krumm!
that is a incredible lap time, absolutely crushing the old record. well done!
Big, heavy, comfortable GT car with 4 seats, a big trunk, power everything, air conditioning, ect etc.... And yet they manage to achieve such a blazingly fast time.. Simply astonishing.
I'd like to see what Nissan could do with an uncompromisingly stripped down, superlight, 2 seat, track focused car!
this is the superlight 2 seat track focused car . . . its the best model they can put out and its called the nismo gtr. . .
jeffrey625625 except youre wrong. Nissan GTR Nismo is a 4 seater..
Ahmad Bin Ghazi Bin Amiri too bad this lap was achieved with out all 4 seats like a production car would have.
FrankieJames7 not saying youre wrong, but where'd you hear/see that?
you can find it everywhere. nissan likes to lie about their times.
I am in love....... This is true power, true engineering
Incredible! The Nürburgring is one scary-fast track! No room for error! This driver has balls of steel, not to mention tremendous driving skills. I loved hearing him describe his record setting lap, pointing out "mistakes' which lesser drivers wouldn't even realize or see. Bravo! (What is evern more mind boggling, seeing this record lap is that, according to F1 Racing magazine (June 2006) BMW engineers estimated that a BMW-Sauber F1.06 could lap in under 5:15, which equals to an average of 237 km/h. Nearly 2 minutes faster than this Nismo is hard to conceive -- but if you watch Schumacher's cruise around the 'Ring, in that famous/infamous lap, the effortless speed of the F1 is clearly evident, and you can tell Schumacher is not really pushing the car at all. Of course, estimates are one thing; actually conquering Nürburgring another! Would love to see what an F1 set up for this track could really do!)
That... was very fast! Good driving and commentary! I can't remember actually watching a commentary of a Nurburgring lap before.. this was too cool!
Yeah, the only thing that could have made it better was the speed and RPMs being shown. And the outside of the car being shown clearly after the lap.
*****
I have not heard it was modified. The only real critical stuff I've heard is how long they spent there tuning and testing, that the car isn't in production so it shouldn't have production car credit, and that some of it (like the mesh hood) will not be be an option on the car because it may not meet pedestrian crash test standards.
No idea about the hood myself. Don't really care. It was a great run anyway.
*****
Nobody is saying it's modified, Infiniti boy. They're saying it's the Track Pack Edition, which costs a fairly insane amount of money...and it is.
*****
No, some are saying it was modified. I read a report that said they used a lot of different parts, including a remapped ECU. Great timing on the lap too with launch coming up..... *cough*hype*cough*
It's modified in that it isn't a regular Nismo. It has extra performance features, but those features are offered to the public. So, it's not modified, but it is extremely limited and extremely expensive.
cant believe how humble he is, awesome driving
r34 designed to be king of the streets and it is
r35 designed to be king of supercars and so far so good
r36 will probably come with an hybrid technology and ligthened chasis to take its place among hypercars.
muratordu61 Agreed !! Herd a few rumors from my Japanese friends that it will use similar technology as P1 and 918. Will have hybrid and motor engine and power are estimated at 799hp combined.
+Salman Muhit I don´t think this would be a good idea. The car already is quite heavy. I guess the car would weigh more than 4000 pounds/2000 kilo with the battery packs and the electric engine included which is to much for fast cornering.
xXAlmdudlerXx de que no se
My right ear really enjoyed this
+Rhys Tudor-Davies thank god i have 7.1 enabled lol
R35 is what you call automotive performance perfection.
How on earth do Japanese engineers keep making it faster?
All this R35 Nismo needs is a Porsche 918 hp boost and it will smoke it out.
Simply give this car a Michelin Cup tires (like the Vette/Viper and other high-end performance cars) and it will crack 7 min barrier. Absolutely astonishing perfection of a car. WOW! O_O
The tires it used were similar to the Michelin PSC. And this is the Time Attack. Not a production vehicle, faster than the GT-R Nismo Track Pack. Not road/emissions legal.
You gotta remember that the car is AWD. Having that much power could seriously harm handling.
Well done Michael Krumm and the Nismo team, that was pretty spectacular.
Another win for the legendary GT-R
Respect Michael Krumm and his professional work.
And also
Respect the Engineers of Nissan and Nismo.
Great Work! Congrats!
Really good job! Put street legal Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 on that car and it will break the 7 minute barrier.
Good job, Nissan and Nismo. Incredibly fast car. And congrats to Michael Krumm. Very well driven.
i really dont think that would be the case. Nissan spent millions on the tire development so i think the tires that are on it are the best
You do realize your mpsc2 are mediocre tyres?
when manufacturers are chasing the fastest production car lap record for the nurburgring and spending millions in order to do so, that by changing the tyres would take over 8 seconds off the lap time and they decided not to bother?
If you really think that changing tires will take 8 seconds off this lap time then you need your head examined.
***** I think that picking Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires over Specifically designed tires since the beginning of the GT-R project...is just hilarious.
Great car and great work Nissan + Nismo! Good work Michael Krumm, inspiring drive
Mighty Congratulations Nissan/Nismo for achieving the fastest mass production Nurburgring ring time. For the max down force achieved was the rear wing at the highest or lowest setting? Also love the amber LCD display very racey!
Incredible work, Nissan/Nismo! Congrats on the results. The hard work paid off!
Why do you think there are so many "fanboys" because its quite possibly the greatest road legal car in the world. All things considered, value, comfort, reliability, etc.
☑ - Internet tough-guys
☑ - Putting down others to prop up ego
☑ - Claims of cheating
☑ - Expert drivers
☑ - Expert engineers
***** As you have stated, ALL the above is true about this GT-R. I don't pay attention to keyboard warriors since most of them will never own any super car and are simply fanboys. I also dismiss people that have no REAL-WORLD clue about racing a car but have LOTS of experience reading about them and selecting what they want to believe instead of experiencing it and THEN making informed choices.
Let's just say that Nissan put MUCH more effort into getting a great Nordschleife time than ANY other manufacturer but it IS a great time, none-the-less. The thing about it is, most buyers will NEVER run a track similar to the Ring. The Ring is VERY rough, VERY long and does not represent anything similar to any other racing facility in existence today. It's a cool place to run a high performance car and has a rich history but in reality, it is one of a kind and not reality for most buyers to ever experience.
***** Define cheating. Theres many articles and one of Nissan even admitting this car was tuned unlike the production models for this run.
☑- Sassy commenters who list stuff with ☑.
Michael, that's absolutely amazing. Well done!
Peter H.
Great vid. Comments by the driver are a nice change of pace and a good touch.
Well done Nissan and Michael.
fantastic job man great driving gt-r nismo is absolutely perfect
Thankyou Michael great lap and commentary
Look at all the haters hahaha it could be the zr1 going backwards with 150 width tires Made of wood. Stop hating and admire a beautiful bit of machinery. This is how innovation happens, so let it but hurts
Sorry but, innovation happened a while ago when a 918 spyder in street tires that can actually do around 20 miles without burning a drop of fuel laped the ring in 6:57 minutes. That's innovation.
João Fernandes
1. The Porsche costs about 5 times as much as the Nismo GT-R and is a very rare super sports car while the GT-R is a mass production car.
2. The Porsche could do 20 miles without fuel if you charged it and never rev up over 3000rpm
3. The Porsche would have been slower than the GT-R on the second lap as the batteries were already running low.
4. There is no real definition of street tires... Porsche might just be putting racing tires on the stock 918
MusikTeleVision1995
1. Innovation, perfection and record braking times comes with a cost.
2. Revving it up only till 3000 or not you can still do 20 miles not burning any fuel. And still beat any car around so far on the Nurburgring.
3.The Porsche will be faster every lap because it regenerates enough energy under braking to always have juice, just like the kers of an F1. And only a professional driver is able to completely deplete it at the end of the big straight and by that time you have a hard braking for the last corners so more juice again(the electrical part was designed having that in consideration)
4.And no they didn't put racing tires, they used the stock intended tires for the 918.
And finally the absolute record of the Nurburgring was set by a Porsche 30 years ago and counting...this is Porsche backyard. Deal with it for once!
João Fernandes agree and the nismo gtr is aim for fast lap in Nurburgring. yes, Nurburgring ONLY!!! all the setting to optimize for lap time in Nurburgring, including many very good race drivers. but for other supercars, they arent only built for Nurburgring.
MusikTeleVision1995 but somehow f1 cars have energy available every lap...tard. Nissan faster in corners, nissan faster in the end...but the result, nissan slower.
I like the narration and minimap and lap clock, very cool video.
Awesome great achievement Michael Krumm & Nissan Team! Congratulations!!!
I can really imagine the pressure trying to break record, having no cage in the car driving with these speeds very close on the limit. Great commantary as well. :)
How much do you think could have shaved off if the lap was perfect to your standards?
This car never ceases to amaze me! Once again, well done Nissan and Nismo!
ミスしてもミスを感じさせない加速流石GTR
This is well informed breakdown. Congrats to the whole Nissan and Nismo team!!!
gear ratio setting perfect. driver drives perfect = good lap time.....
I'm a c6 Z06 owner and I just have to say that this is one badass car. Completely revolutionizing physics, I want one along side with my Z
It's official. The time attack Nismo edition that ran 7:08 WILL be sold to the public as the Nismo Time Attack GT-R. It is now verified.
omg that is an incredibly fast car..his favorite section of the ring is also mine..that consecutive downhill S is pretty technical but so rewarding when you get it right..congrats to the team
また世界記録が出ましたね
I have 2 R32 Nissan GTRs and my new 2018 R35 will arrive here in March so i know a little about Nissan GTRs I have done track time in them and know that they are not an easy car to drive fast until you learn their how to manage them. This lap by Michael Krumm is very very good and if you listen to his commentary you will hear where he knows he made a mistake, some of you may not realise that the commentator is the driver. Yes this car is somewhat modified but so is just about every other supercar that runs at this circuit. this is a 4 seat V6 engined AWD heavy car, give credit where it is due. The modern Nissan GTR is an incredible piece of engineering in any form.
Cannot wait to see the new 2020 Nismo GTR lap record? N-Attack package?
the nismo is not a mass production car its a limited production its actually a after market car that is tuned / modded by nismo but sold as a package.
for your other questions the mclaren p1 has not recorded a lap time yet.
the gtr is not in same bracket as bugatti or p1 due to a few MAJOR things including
styling (not exotic / original)
driving involvement (computer hard and numb)
name (does draw as much recognition)
driving "feel" (most people want to feel the road and the turns, not let the computer handle that)
weight (its very heavy and makes it feel big on the track)
sound (90% of the noise you will hear is all the air being crammed down its throat)
over all feel as a car (most people dont feel "special"(lol) in a gtr which is why alot of people buy supercars in the 1st place. why do you think lamborghini gallardo / aventador and corvette zr1 / z06 both out sold GTR (black, premium, base)
lastly i am still not sure what shallow person would buy a car Just because it makes good numbers...
I for one do not believe this lap time was achieved on the same Dunlop tires that the car comes with from the factory.
this footage is also edited.
brave fencer LMAO ^ where exactly was it edited
well for one it was missing the Bilstein sign until recently. Porsche 956 made a faster time than this in the 1980's even if its not. its like why even buy this? lol this car is for dumb-asses. its a fast production car lmfao. it can't even do 200 mph without a tune. corvette makes a better car than this hands down.
brave fencer You're an idiot hands down as you have shown in other videos.
brave fencer have fun handling that mess off a car
I cannot wait for next GTR Nismo evolution to dip into sub 7 mins records!!!
hey, i used the video after i edit it and gave the credit to your channel and linked it .It's GT-R NISMO real life nurbugring lap vs my GTR NISMO Gran-Turismo sport lap . The video on my channel .. THANK YOU
it was great watching the team celebrate at the end of the video..
All you GT-R haters need to realise that the GT-R R35 platform is almost 10 years old, and it took other car manufacturers almost 8 years since the release of the R35 to catch up to the GT-R. The R35 GT-R even 9 years later can still hold it's own against other cars like the C7 Zo6 that are brand new platforms.
That achievement alone demonstrates what an engineering marvel the R 35 is!!
Cannot wait to see what Nissan has in store for their new R36 GT-R platform! And this is coming from a die-hard porsche fan.
no, the car doesn not hold up vs a z06, and yes we can all agree the GT-R was a great car, it was it's price point that was the most impressive. Nissan never really had the edge on brands like porsche in terms of performance tho and could never quite live up to the extreme hypercars^ good car tho
sorry to let you down but dodge viper made it to 7:01.03 in 2017 soooo yeah :P....also I dont hate the car. What I do hate is people who think the gtr is the fastest car in the world and stuff like that ;-;
You might want to fact check before you comment, C7 Z06 best recorded lap around the Nurburgring was 7:13:90 on the 24th of April 2017.
@@RS_Skyline You might want to know that 5 years of tyre tech can make a car 5 or even 10 seconds faster...
This time was no surprise to me. The Nismo was built and developed by Williams. They know a thing or two about making cars go round tracks quickly. Still great achievement though.
I love how every bend is famous lol
Awesome video, awesome car. I like this guy, and loved his commentary!!
Extraordinaire !
Bravo Nissan
Been watching,listening to comments ,and, then was a moment when stopwatch showed time,i said bravo!
Good work Michael.
it must be able to do it faster i reckon a sub-7.05 time is achieveable!
the best car in the world around the best track in the world. briliant.
This the best car ever.. The porsche 918 sypder did a better time only because of the 887 hp engine. If they equalize the power/weight factor on both cars, the porsche would get destroyed badly. 10 secs difference is nothing in a 20km track. The Gt-R is way less powered and also 100 kg heavier (220 lbs). Nissan gt-r nismo 595 hp / 1740 kg. Porsche 918 spyder 887 / 1640kg. So, basically, Nissan can destroy the porsche anyday. And Nissan nismo costs 150k USD, the porsche, 929k. BIG LOL.
FrankieJames7 The truth hurts! Go cry in the corner!
Man, the numbers are the truth. Deal with it!!
8 secs in nurburgring is nothing man.. If you consider the big straight line.. Horse power talks a lot.. If nissan tune the engine up a little bit, it can be beaten easily.
never.
FrankieJames7 It is not a hypercar and yet it still outperforms most of them. 7:08 on the green hell is no joke, hypercar or not. That is quite an astonishing feat for non slick tires. It's just a matter of time before it goes under the 7 minute mark. Not even a lot of hyper and supercars can claim that. That is just how good road legal cars are coming from the factory nowadays. Imagine this vehicle with some slight modifications and weight loss. Under 7 minutes for sure. And please don't insult others based on what they may or may not like. If you don't like the gtr and "gtr guys" then so be it, you don't have to yell and tell it to the whole world and put them down. By doing that you are just being hypocritical and are what you said exactly to Rodrigo, "Just shut the fuck up, gtr guys are the biggest faggots in the car world hands fuckin down." I think you know who the biggest faggot is. Haters, haters like you.
Very honest with the track breakdown. If it was perfect, I believe it would shave 4 seconds making the bar raise too high for many manufacturers.
Stop it GTR! Was it necessary to ruined the other supercars?
This is insanely fast. This car can stretch 310km/h on the straight line of nurburgring. You can find commentary at 7:11, I don't think this is just due to powertrain upgrade, should be otherwise gear ratio redistribution, weight reduction of entire drivetrain. Nismo really do know what they are doing.
Nissan should make an "lightweight version" of this car, more carbon fiber, no rear seats, etc he is going incredibly quick but you can still see that this is a heavy car. They car is visibly fighting its own weight which is why it looks so violent. If you're on the track this is acceptable because you sort of went out there for this purpose. But on a nice twisty backroad this would be annoying and not all that enjoyable. Still love the GTR though lol
+frank rs They purposely made it that weight,something to do with better cornering on slower corners as the weight is pushing down on the tires and they say the combined weight with the downforce on fast corners is equivalent to a Formula 1 car..for example the GTR is 3800lbs + 400lbs downforce @ 100mph = 4200lbs Formula 1 weight is 1000lbs + 3200lbs downforce @ 100mph = 4200lbs...some shit like that.
The Opinionator if that was the case then in theory it should be able to corner about as good as an F1 car lol
frank rs it corners better than an F1 in tight corners where the F1 doesn't have enough downforce
+The Opinionator
You have no idea what you are talking about.
The radical sr3 is like 20 seconds quicker around this track than the Nismo GTR.
Weight is detrimental to handling at any speed.
F1 cars can lap this track in way under 6 minutes.
Alex Mallinson Very intelligent response
I bought a 240 after growing up with my dad's 280s (bought another and still have them both). I bought a G35 after... well... I saw one for the first time, so beautiful (I still have it, as well). Now the GTR. Not sure I can afford that but I don't know that I'd ever want another car after. Maybe some day...
actually a lambo finished it in 6:59:70 sec!
aventador sv which cost way more than this car and it's about 2 years newer.
Glad to see Nissan remembered to bring a camera this time.
I love how Japanese celebrate amazing results... they're sooo calm! If they were italian they would have scream loud all toghether jumping all over the pit lane, clapping and so on... ahah! (I'm italian.. so I would do that!)
Oh, you know much about Giapponese. It may be difficult for many Italian people to find how happy those Nissan engineers were! "Why they don't celebrate more?!"... or something. Yeah, as you see, they are super happy and screaming INSIDE! And I'm sure Michael Krumm knows it well, too. (I'm Japanese and I also love how Italian celebrate!)
well done Michael, read you book too, great read and helped me with my driving skills.
NISMO isnt stock
im amazed they can make such a powerful and heavy car handle around the track like it does. I mean seriously they gave it more power and it handles like this around the Green Hell, thats awesome
The ACR is a good car for sure. But it got more horsepower per tonne, torque per tonne, tire that Dunlop GT600 will never matches, load more down force at every speed (220lbs max vs 1500lbs) and lower center of gravity did it in 7:12, GTR Nismo did it 4 seconds faster. I bet there must be something to do with electronic suspension and gearing coz AWD affect when throttle applied. There's many corners here doesn't allow any throttle while turning, so AWD affect maybe 1/2 second to 1 second (rough estimate). Not to mention ACR is above GTR's performance level (GTR is not ACR's competitor) But the result is ACR can't beat the Nismo with all those good shit. Both good cars!
Show less
+NISMO N ATTACK 東瀛戰神 GTR is going hybrid then as by 2020, full electric.
Good cars are dying this days. Viper is about to end production, GTR is going on EV.... BMW limit power to 600 horses....
NISMO N ATTACK 東瀛戰神 It's all going to work out. You just watch.
市販されてるニスモでもう一度アタックしてみては？
この7分08秒には何の意味がありますか？😕
would of been better without the commentary.
congratulation! that was awesome
GTR's biggest competitor Turbo S seems failed to beat GTR. EVEN with over boost and all wheel steering stability aids............ Sad.
oh god got over it
I hope they'll spend this enthusiasm to the next Nissan Z Nismo
Nissan GT-R NISMO 2015 says "bye bye" to all models from this makes:
-Lamborghini
-Ferrari
-Koenigsegg
-A lot of Porsches (except the 918 for the moment)
-McLaren
-Lexus
-Ferrari
-Bugatti
-Pagani
-Mercedes
-Gumpert
-Dodge (Viper)
and a lot of more models............
NISSAN GT-R IS SIMPLY......... THE F*CKING KING !!!!!!!!!
Excellently driven, mistakes or not. Having the voice over was very neat indeed!
watch the Nissan Nismo at the 2015 and 2016 12 hour race at Bathurst Australia where all the bullshit ends to fast for the Porsche turbos Audi Lambos Mclaren bentleys mercedes and its only a quarter of the price of these cars
the car is soooooo fast! that the driver is constantly running out of straight line, so he constantly managing corners. "Wicked"
So Nissan uses some modified 'time attack' GTR which will actually never go on sale and even Motortrend has confirmed the Nismo GTR will not be as fast as this 'time attack' gtr, but yet we have comments from the Nissan camp stating how the GTR is better than everything on the planet... *facepalm*
uhm its the GTR Nismo version, it will be on sale, its a package by Nismo...
innie721 sigh...again, this 'time attack' version is never going on sale, the Nismo package that will be offered to the public is *not* this car that set the lap time (confirmed by Motortrend). It will be slower than this car...please do some research, many posters have already pointed this out below.
So basically any manufacturer can do this, set up their top echelon sports car on steroids, a 'ringer time attack' car and set blistering fast lap times. Please read the motor trend article that was published on the Nismo, Why do you think Porsche called them out few years ago?? Because any manufacturer who has a long list of achievements like Porsche does know when the people are been conned by a lie. Although motor trend made some facts available to the public about this 'time attack' GTR, there is still a lot of in-clarity around this 'time attack' GTRs setup.
osirisvb Typical Porsche fan getting his pants in a twist. This exact version of the Nismo with the williams F1 aero package will be available for purchase. It doesn't have a name yet but some are calling it a track pack Nismo model.
Apparently, there will be a base nismo model and this time attack version.
Tobi Ogunsanwo Nope, its not Tobi, stop lying to me and to yourself. A very reputable magazine has already confirmed this is a 'time attack' modified GTR which will not be the same Nismo model that sells on the show room floors. If I am the only one saying this, then you can call me a porsche fanboi or w/e you want, but there are many people who have read the article from Motortrend and have come to the same conclusion, that Nissan has not been very honest about their ring test cars in the past, this is why a reputable company like Porsche called them out for conning the masses.
This is one of Nissan's 'test ringer' cars not a production model, they released this time as a PR stunt, just to raise the hype around their Nismo package launch....
osirisvb - you're absolutely right
Outstanding. Great vid, great car, great driving, great commemtary.
CAUTION: butthurt Porsche N corvette fanboys is coming!!!!!
yes, love Porsche turbo S, also I felt lucky that Corvette fangirls didn't blow up my inbox yet!lol Still love both Turbo S and GTR! I should change Porsche to corvette in my topic!
Incredible lap
I don't hate the GT-R. Far from it. The GT-R is a giant slayer, alongside the ZR1 and Viper. These three cars have shown that paying $300,000 for a car makes you an absolute fool. But that doesn't change the fact that THIS GT-R was built and tuned for the 'Ring, and nothing else. It also doesn't change the fact that the GT-R has been aged for several years. It's performance is admirable, to be sure, but it's falling behind. Increases in power can only go so far. The competition keeps getting faster on the track while the GT-R only keeps improving 0-60 times. The GT-R is a pig. Everybody knows it. Can you imagine how GOOD this car could be if it weighed a few hundred pounds less and ditched the under-steer-inducing AWD system? And have you ridden in a GT-R? It rides about as smooth as a sled on a double black diamond...
And for the record, the LFA is one of my all time most hated cars. I simply don't get the point of such a car. They sit there and tout how much engineering is in it, and yet it's slower than any supercar that has a pricetag that high....It's a ridiculously slow car for how much it costs. $500,000 would buy you a couple of GT3 cars...or a whole fleet of cars that slaughter it (MP4-12C, Viper, GT-R, Corvette)...
Adeum Deus Those who've used the GT-R in folk races like the Targa Tasmania Road Rally will disagree with you. (in fact the GT-R won that race several times, beating out purpose built rally cars like the Evo and Impreza, as well as its main rival in the said race, the Lambourghini Gallardo).
“Time Attack” car displayed in the camouflage has several additional upgrades. The engine is tuned differently with identical 600-hp and 481-lb-ft horsepower and torque peaks, but the curves are slightly fatter. The AWD system’s torque biasing program is tweaked slightly. The aerodynamics package also differs in a couple very meaningful ways that will likely erode that 0.27 Cd claimed for the mainstream model. The rear wing stands quite a bit taller; there’s an aero fence running along the rear edge of the hood, and the front fenders have little aero “whiskers.” Many of these upgrades will likely find their way into the Nismo Track edition (or whatever they call it), though it’s not clear whether the aero fence on the hood could pass pedestrian crash standards or whether the tweaked engine could be made clean enough to be legal."
People. This is not the GT-R Nismo that will be for sale. This is not a production car. This is modified.
Thanks God, some one else actually reads the fine print.
I see this video for my fist time in 2022 🙂 amazing driving skills and excellent work of the nissan and nismo team. wow. this car is a rocket but you have to handle it !
This comment section is cancer. Nobody here owns a GTR or any of the cars they are arguing about lol
+Shotgun Arms - Not quite true - I regularly track my MY2013 GTR. That Nismo is handling differently from mine.... and goodness is it fast.. The big problem for me on tight tracks is braking - the standard GTR brakes are not very good and the car is heavy. I dont think the Nismo has carbon ceramic as standard, but I wonder whether this one did..?
When german says, "that left corner is really difficult.." it means IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AS FAST AS HE DOES in this video LOL
Japan > God !
It's crazy how easy the car handles the bumps even at well over 200 km/h. I don't see any street car beating this anytime soon, not even the big McLaren or the LaFerrari.
the ultimate corvette zr1 raper :P
Too bad it's not a production vehicle like the ZR1. Plus the ZR1 has a manual trans, RWD, and far less electronic aid. So it actually takes great skill to drive.
all i can see is excuses. the gtr is a better car hands down. zr1 is behind on technology and aid. and you will see the newer version will have alot more of that stuff that you hating on in the new zr1 lol. manuals are almost extinct, electronic aid is being added more and more to every car.
Behind on technology? Is that why the ZR1's self adjusting magnetorheological dampers were so good, that Ferrari purchased the system from Chevy/GM to use on every Ferrari from the 458 onward, yet they still don't have a vehicle with a better Ring time than the ZR1? Some people just prefer a real, full driving experience with 3 pedals and minimal aid so they can develop real skill. The ZR1 is made for those people. It doesn't have to rely on as many aids, and the fact that it's only 1 second slower than the GT-R's real ring time makes it that more impressive. And allow me to reiterate that this car that has set this 7:08 is a modified car that won't be sold to the public. The 7:18 is the GT-R's real legitimate time.
Vitaly Gusar The only thing the Dodge Viper ACR had was what? ABS in terms of technology. That car was the fastest running car on the ring for a L O N G time, faster than a GTR by far and it had a manual trans and RWD. Your argument is invalid. If you say that the technology is so superior, "Shitty American Muscle" shouldn't even be able to come close to this, or be in competition with it at all, but we are.
***** The Viper ACR was not exactly stock either. Among others, it used special tires (Michelin R-Compound types that get grippier as they get hotter, and are almost as good as slicks, hence the term Super-Slick tires as indicated in the Wikipedia page). As opposed to the GTR that used runflat all weather tires.
Even if I could afford any car I wanted I'd have a few of these. It's an unbelievably awesome piece of engineering. Out performs cars that cost so much more and that should on paper beat it.
wot.motortrend.com/1311_2015_nissan_gtr_nismo_has_staggering_600_hp.html
Read this link. Nissan isn't pulling a car off the "volume production" line and running it on the ring! This car is not in any way shape or form a true representation of a street automobile. No wonder Porsche called them liars a few years back!
www.bbc.com/autos/story/20131121-one-mind-bendingly-quick-nissan
There’s no word on prices for the even gnarlier Track Pack version (which gets more aero, 50kg less mass, revised dampers, different ECU settings and is responsible for that silly Nürburgring lap time), but we’d guess about £10k more. Nismo’s only making 200 this year though, so be quick.
that was fkin insane. the actual nismo gtr is pretty impressive too. dear santa...
Don't take me wrong but, ok it's a really good time that was set there but...where is the innovation? A Radical SR8(as simple as a machine can be) can do faster than that and you can(hardly) use it on roads because is street legal. We all know by now the 918 Spyder did it in 6:57, and it's a car which can do around 20 miles without spending a drop of fuel, and that's innovation!
Don't make me smack the shit out of your stupid face.
1.918 is not a production car,
2.918 did on pilot cup tires
GTR did it on Run flat radials. And it is a mass production car.
1.the gtr nismo is limited edition just like the 918
2.yes it is the tires used by gt's but is still the tires the car will come equiped with, because they are road legal tires.
Bam! You are as dumb as a rock,
From a Vette guy, thumbs up to GTR Nismo...that's a monster time! Helluva car for a reasonable amount of money!
ZR1 fanboys mad!
Cool footage.. Great channel content.. Subbed!
