Nissan already having to fix GTR flaws
motor mounts, steering rack bushings, differential having to be revised. This is in addition to the failing transmissions, and questionable block longevity.

If indeed it's true, it would be ironic that the weakest link in
the GTR turns out to be a part supplied by a US company(Borg Warner).

Whats with all the pics of the front-end? You guys really are only gonna be looking at tailights(briefly) behind the wheels of your relics
But talk about ironic - Porsche fan boys criticizing the GTR's front as ugly and looking like a cat fish. That's like the elephant man's mum looking at an elephant and calling it ugly!!
I mean c'mon, these Porker lovers really think that their Porker looks good at the front - with the bug eyes and design style that hasn't changed for like 30 years? What a joke. I think my old VW beetle even looks better! And you know what, i can save money on parts by replacing my Porsche's headlamp with the VW's as well!
Let's not forget that the original dual clutch gearbox now found in the GTR was first designed by Porsche for their endurance racing cars back in 1985. That's right 1985!!!!

Agree. But give them a break, it's the only time they have at looking at the front end of a GTR, cos in real life - all they will be seeing is the back end - disappearing into the distance.

Yeah, but it took Nissan to fully exploit the system and applied it properly. Just like with the Chinese who invented gunpowder. All they did was used it for fire*******s and fireworks. The white man came along, saw it's potential and created the gun. The rest is history.

You wont get any.
I didnt tell you guys about the guy that claimed he raced and engineered for Porsche America, he said it so many times I thought it was something I'd never heard of. Turns out he meant Porsche CLUB of America, and had no clue and was a poser.
Then they tried to call me out and I showed them my credentials and proof, yet not ONE of them had anything to show as valid for their claims. You wont get any pictures, at least not legit ones. Bunch of phony fanboys.
Oh yeah and this bonzelite character, said he didnt want an R35 despite his second coming prophecies, and would rather have a Ferrari that he supposedly went to test drive. Said he was going to buy it probably to go next to his GTO.

Did I tell you about the guy who claimed that the TT and GT3 were faster than the GTR? He kept doing so despite countless proof to the contrary. Then he started comparing a stock GTR to cars that had been modified for racing. That guy was a real jackass. I forget his name.
