Nice
Yes have huge grip but still getting to know the car whole differnt ball game coming from fwd
It is a banning machine you only need to touch the throttle a few cm's and in normal mode it will just shift straight to 6 you really dont realise how fast you end up going when it does that lol

Exactly that, when he launched he kept his foot hard down for about 10 seconds or so and I saw 135 on the readout (closed road of course). It never seemed to slow down either just keeps pulling like a train.

Post by: xjay1337 on April 17, 2015, 11:26:22 am: Bet it's a step up from the Mk5.

Although I have heard of reliability issues even on Stage 1 let alone with Anti Lag!!!

so when are you taking it to 1000bhp.

What issues?

There's a turbokit for sale atm but I want to keep this car as usable everyday if need be, I may go 700 in the future but honestly the way these cars delivery 650hp is ridiculous already

I think build the engine up and go for 1000 bhp :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
Title: Re: Lukes R35 GT-R
Post by: Pikey Motorsports on April 17, 2015, 11:51:42 am: Torque is always capped by Litchfield at 620 and they will warranty it then I'm going to warranty it soon which is cool as they will warranty a 1000hp build for 1500 a year, but I doubt i will go 1000hp I'm buying my 1st house this year

Post by: Pikey Motorsports on June 17, 2015, 09:45:59 pm: It's suprising for not huge power what they do, The way they deliver the power the huge powerband and especially the transmission and gearing most cars need 70+hp more to compare with much less weight

650 is enough for me and I'm a power freak

God knows what these 1000hp GTR road cars are like people with to much money nobody needs big blowers on these cars I don't think lol
