Warning Nissan GT-R V-Spec

More horsepower (over 500hp?), lighter weight (down ~150kg) with a mule already on its way to destroy the Nurburgring's lap time

The V-Spec should arrive in 2010...

Re: Nissan GT-R V-Spec

The RB26LETT was a stunner though. You can't deny that, although to be fair they had to be rebuilt every now and then as the oil pumps always used to give up..

Ya the RB26DETT are a great engine take a lot of abuse but the SR20's really need a baffle sump with a oil catch tank to make sure they will last. And on standard internals they can be brought up to 600bhp
