why the fck would Nissan sell a car knowing full well that the tranny is going to die.. and the only way to avoid having to fork over another 20K, is to drive it like an altima, or just get really really lucky???? thats so messed up.

It's not something new to nissan, they're used to this shi_t since 1989, the Garbage-TRex has never been or ever will be a car you can rely to do your grocery or pick up the kids from school, this car has no common sense it can do a 7.29(we the members, fanboys and Porsche engineers believe that this is true) at nordschleife, but it breaks if driven in a straight line at full throttle

The gayest thing to ever come outta Japan since 1969 <-- even this year is so gay

I agree. He seems to know a lot more about these GTR's than most. What's your deal, oh and keep posting those funny pics. I already ruined one keyboard.

Why are we advertising the GT-R forum at the end of this thread? Is that to get the fanboys to go back to their thread?

P.S. I have read some of the threads on NAGTROC, such as the ones about the cost of a failed clutch and exploding trannys, but never once have I felt the need to post on it. It might be fun, stirring up some trouble, especially since some of those owners are getting really frustrated with things like transmission that need to be replaced if you need a new clutch. But that would be like posting on a cancer support website that you like cancer. I don't understand why the GTR fanboys need to post trash on this site. We are only trying to set the record straight after the biggest BS new car launch in history. By the way, don't "launch" that particular new car too many times unless you don't mind forking over $20,000!

Yes, to give the trolls directions on how to get back home since they somehow got lost.


But the old addage you get what you pay for is really biting these boys in the butt right about now. I remember when they were trying to advocate that the GT-R could do everything the TT can do and better so no one would want the TT anymore.

Even funnier now than it was then.



The "In case tranny #1 fails attach tranny #2 with USB" pic still has me ROFLMAO.

Oh boy, not that again. The 996 GT3 wasnt any faster than a 997 GT3. And the cayman was running stock power and would have beat it too had it not hit a deer on the road.
