They need to come out with a diet plan as well. Then it would be perfect. I love it but its too heavy.

Didn't Nissan say that the ECU is encrypted and that any modifications to it will void warranty!?

And the upgrade is for one use only becouse of the trany? And if not then just maybe nissan doesn't know that it can take more torque they thought it would. Awesome.

Hennessey need to keep their hands off the GTR. Sure they are know to produce some serious power, but their aerodynamic upgrages make the car look terrible, look at the Viper. So hopefully they will not get it in to their heads to design a kit for better downforce.

I wonder what the transmission thinks about the extra power... Personally, if I owned a GT-R, I wouldn't buy any performance upgrades unless they came straight from Nissan themselves. The GT-R is designed and built in such a delicate way I'd never allow some American grease-monkeys modify it.

If I had the money/car, I would bring my gtr to them. I would just never use the launch control feature, its the sudden jarring that hurts the drive line more then the amount of torque the car puts down.

Hennessey's facility is like 30 minutes away from me....if I get the GT-R I might bring it to them for the 65hp boost package....cost only 1000 bucks...

I contacted them last week to ask if i can a complete GTR from them, mean that they buy it and upgrade it for me then ship to my country, the overall cost is $114k only, in my country the normal one cost $120k ..!
I also asked them for the performance figures and it was:
0-60 IN 3.1 SEC. 1/4 MILE: 11.1 @ 127 MPH, TOP SPEED: 198 MPH
that what they told me.
