Davectr Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 That video doesn't show exactly how modified each of the vehicles were. That TTRS was def modified, without a shadow of doubt. The blue one in the second video has a stage 1 remap, no other mods So technically this.... The APR Stage I ECU Upgrade gives you higher peak numbers of 410 horsepower and 447-ft. of torque, and gains of up to 76 horsepower and 95lb-ft are available throughout the power band! Not bad for £1,200 + vat. Why the hell didn't Nissan fit a turbo in the beginning. Obvious because of the GTR, but really, the 350 would have been the one to beat. Rather than being the underdog. But then looks and charisma stand leaps and bounds above Porsche, Audi and Beemers. No,technically this. . . . "The blue one in the second video has a stage 1 remap, no other mods". I didn't quote power figs or manufacturer. If it helps I do believe that Harrison's car (the blue one in the 2nd vid) had a Revo stage 1 remap and was ~400bhp. Most of the stage 1 remaps (Revo, APR, MRC etc etc) will give ~400bhp on a TTRS with no other mods. I don't know if my posts are being misinterpreted, I'm not trying to promote the TTRS as a better car than the Z, I own a Z! I've been purely responding to the OP's question about how fast was a TTRS with facts backed up with experience of owning one. I was just trying to gauge a position of likely power bonus from stock but still 400 or 410 as above isn't going to make much difference. Fact is the TTRS seems to perform VERY well in those vids, more so than the 400bhp or the important factor the torque. It seems to be making more of a dance than a stage one from those vids. The GTR should have walked all over the TTRS and that particular GTR is not shy of any mods. Visually the vids don't add up. Ah, I see. The stage 1 remap does actually make a big difference in performance. The other thing to bear in mind is that Rs in the video is an auto and the launch control on the Ttrs is reputed to be one of the best available (apparently). As people have so rightly stated - the GTR would catch it and overtake it. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpilot Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 From what i can see in the vids is the gtr does catch up to the ttrs but the tt does seem to start better, but then if its using a launch control and the gtr isnt it was always going to Do i seem to remember on early Gtr owners were advised not to use launch control or it would void the warranty and blow transmissions?
