R35 Skyline GTR- 11.67@111mph hitting speed limiter

[inspector01]

Here is video of the new GTR running the 1/4 mile in australia. It is a JDM car running in australia. The JDM skylines have a GPS speed limiter at 111mph on public roads, and it turns off in certain areas like race tracks. This car hit the 111mph speed limiter so it stopped there. The US doesn't have this technology so it will be able to go faster and run a quicker time presumably.

Fixed.

Local dealer is getting one, I can't wait to check it out in person.

Wow, that is impressive. Looks to be good competition for the Z06. We'll see how it stacks up on the 1/4 and on the road course.

The Z06 will still be faster, lighter, get better mpg, looks a hell of a lot better, and doesn't cost 100K with dealer mark ups.:stirpot:

It will be interesting to see what it will actually run when it isn't speed limited. I think it will be very close to Z06.

I don't think it is gonna trap near 125mph like a stock Z06

The GTR weighs almost 3900 lbs. What a pig, with less hp. Thats more than my fatass trans am.

im guessing it will do 11.40's at around 117-118, which will beat most stock zo6's, just from a lack of traction. Its alot harder to get a ZO6 moving than that thing, all you do is mash the pedal in the r35. But it wont hold a candle to a ZO6 from a roll, it is one big ass tank

[94NDTA]

We will see, I think it will be pretty close 1/4. For all we know, he could be a really good driver. The new Z06 has been to 11.1 stock everything, high 10's with sticky tires.

I do agree with you on it going from a roll.

Seems to me like the import/domestic characteristics are reversing

Z06>fatass..........ZR-1 shits on the same fatass

Tanks to haul my fat ass around in, and look good doing it.

IMHO i would take a sexy R35 instead of a z06 even if in fact the chevy is faster.

The first two US market R35 are in the states. As of about 5 pm yesterday someone snapped pics of two white R35's outside a shop in cali.
