Well I've never had a race car they've always been my road cars, I'm keeping this road legal but for once seats and noise etc are irrelevant
Was looking at a 950 hp older gtr but it didn't work out and in reality would be a step backwards
So I've bought this potentially an 8 second car
SPEC
Fully stripped down to rolling chassis, then had a complete colour change.... no corners cut or any back street paint shop, the car is painted in Lamborghini verdi mantis,
Then the car was built back up using, all genuine nissan 2017 parts bumpers,undertrays,grilles,bonnet, my17 headlights and so on... once complete - added all the carbon parts... purchased from 4SRC see below for list
the car was then sent to jm imports where they fitted a jm fully built engine and a fully built ppg gearbox along with everything else what was needed to achive this
Both front and rear subframes where pollybushed, all suspension arms have also been polibushed,uprated anti roll bars” front and rear, also uprated adjustable drop links, tein active coilovers.

Amazing car and spec. Can’t get my head round what these insane HP cars must be like to drive even after 2 years I still think my M135 feels quick and this has 3 times the power. When do you get it? In my book now you are a car collector lol

My road gtr does 62-124 mph in 4.28 seconds on race fuel, this one will do it in 2.8 seconds on race fuel, and 3.5 seconds on pump fuel a serious car, a similar spec car did an 8.2 @171 mph 1/4 mile recently !
It's gonna be insane, il need to get used to it as 1000 hp is most I've had upto now lol
Should be coming home in February, Evan has an active rear wing
And yeah I suppose I am becomeing a collector, if my dad was here now hed say "why do you want all these cars you can only drive one at a time" lol
But sod it I've earnt the money so I want to get the things I want now, I really fancy a sequential box but the lure of 1600 hp and a dct gearbox prevailed in the end lol

That is one hell of a specification!!! The whole car looks amazing and will make your Saff seem slow!!! I think it's an understatement when you say you will need to get used to it!!!!

Gonna be great fun mate I can't wait, if I drive to pod though I will have to make sure I have a tow friend about to get me of the pod grounds for recovery lol
I found the turbos couple grand each rated at 700-950 hp each, some lag is going to be dialled out with vvt aswell as it's going to be alot later coming on boost than my gt30 gtr.
got a Dyno plot coming over Monday for the 1560 hp run
Awesome cant wait to see you run this, how long have you had your other gtr mate? Any known issues with them in general? I've followed the ams and ets cars for a while they are getting crazy power out of them over thier

Got a few ams and ets bits on my new one pal
It is bonkers 1560 hp is 410 hp per litre, the equivelant tune on my saph would be 902 hp
I'm gonna start on pump fuel and get used to it first, it's over 1200 on v power which is 315 hp per litre.
Some of them are upto 3000 hp now, they must all be billet blocks, big cubes, methanol and insane rpms though, and a lottery winner wallet to fund it
amazing engineering in these,what a purchase scooby
saffs gonna feel very slow now lol
Saph will be awesome pal, in standard form a saph is 534 kgs lighter, and rwd small tyres fighting to get the power down great fun
But yeah by comparison 100-200 kph in 3.5 seconds in the gtr on pump fuel, I'd guess cossie will be about 5 seconds with grip and a quick shifting hand which I'm not sure I have anymore lol
Gotta say I prefer the pre MY17 look GTRs, but that works very well ( surprisingly ) in green. Wouldn't say no to owning that, even in standard engine form.
Looking forward to following the progress on you owning this

Cars an 09 like my other one mate just got all my17 bits on it, il definitely be getting a private plate on it aswell
Been looking at 09 plates 30k that's less than the focus will cost by about 10k hmmmm lol
Alot of car for the money pal, depends what you want from it, tuneing and racing gtr all day long, but if you want some practicality in the mix then a c7 rs6 is similar money for 2013 model
My plan was to build the focus enjoy it for a couple of years then get a gtr the focus has been away for fab nearlly 4 yrs I'm at the stage of just going through the motions losing the love for it may be time to move on

If I had to choose only one car for performance in mind it is gtr 100% mate
Got Dyno plot through today, I need to change my knickers now I've leaked lol
At wheel figures for pump and race fuel
It looks lazy on the plots but thats 375 whp at 4000 rpm, 500 whp at 4500 rpm, 700 whp at 5000 rpm and 900 whp at 5500 rpm where we then hit the peak and hold to the limiter 8250 rpm on pump, 8500 rpm on race fuel
Should still be easily streetable aswell
There is room for 1700 hp aswell at 3 bar of boost but I said il pass for now lol

Jesus that's why it looks so good its definitely had the best of everything by the looks of it
You have to hand it to the Japanese car tuners, when they build a car to go fast they really know what they are doing!!!! The whole car looks brand new and immaculate!!!

Just looking at last spec of car
jerb weight is 1740kg, and I'm 94 kg lol
So if she's been on abit of a diet unlike me, then a fair guess would be 1800 kg I think
It's already done 154 mph trap speed, I'm ignoring the time as it has no bearing on power and every bearing on grip and perfect launch imo
At 1800 kg 154 mph is 1150 whp on the graph
Should be a hoot mate
I've ordered and paid for my cheapo number plate quickly so I can't change my mind and blow more money on a posh plate
I got that plate for £250 all fees included which I'm well chuffed with, to change that V to a U was going to cost an additional £4750, and I thought nope, just nope lol
It's got r888rs on 20" rims all round ATM, I was thinking of getting some rear 17" or 18" with some proper drag tyres on and just leaving the front r888s on when I really go for it
Thanks pal
I've just found a number plate for a bargain aswell
H3VLK £250 all fees inc I reckon that's a winner 😁😁
Love the fact Carl you could obviously afford a so called super car but your buying stuff that's your taste not to say look at me . Your building a brilliant collection mate
Glad you got a number plate you are happy with, once you have used it in anger and posted some amazing times it won't take long for it to be well known as the "Green Hulk" !!!!

You've summed it up perfectly pal
With a lambo or a Ferrari for all that money it's just a badge, would then need huge amounts of tuning to keep me entertained lol
lovely cars lambos especially id love a twin turbo huracan over 1000 hp but would I swap both my gtrs and Audi's for one, absolutely not, and having £200000+ in one car again is a big no no for me, I just like what I've always liked but can be abit more extreme with them now mate
Funny enough previous owner of the gtr is now buying a huracan and having it twin turbo 1200 hp tuned
Me rs6 is probably the best as a sleeper it gets literally no attention which is great but will sit on the back bumper of a supercar no problem, and I gotta say as an all rounder it's by far the best car I've ever driven

Its value for money plate mate so I'm well happy, I don't mind paying out as long as I'm getting a good deal
It has to be the hulk once I thought about it abit it was a no brainer, and when I was looking at number plates I thought well if I've gotta spend thousands and ignore a random letter or number then I'm gonna save thousands and read a V as a U
Everyone I know who has seen the photo on my phone of the plate has said almost instantly "the number plate says hulk"
So it's defo not just my brain that sees it
