    There are videos on YouTube of a GTR running a 03 cobra with pulley swap.

    From a dig, cobra on cold radials got smoked for the first few seconds then passed and pulled a few cars on the Nissan.

    After I saw that, I cannot say a GTR is fast.
    Yes but that was by less then 1 second but the bigger deal is that the 2012 GTR has 45 more hp, revised suspension, larger brakes, stickier tires and new aerodynamics.

    A 2012 GTR would most likely beat a 2012 Boss LS on the track where the Boss is at its best.


    Now on the other hand you can take a Fox and $5000 and destroy both of them.
    Good judgment comes from bad decisions and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

            True, the 2012 nissans are nice and they are faster.

            This was fords first "try" at the new edge boss, I wonder what changes they will make? Ford has came a long ways in 2 years.

            I'm waiting for a EcoBoost v8 Ford GT comeback, and from the direction fords headed the zr1 will be old news.

            Oh and I fixed that for ya, nitrous is cheap homie!

              I put about 500 miles on a 2012 Boss 302(non-LS) and the same on a new Corvette GS. Even with the Boss' shocks cranked to full stiff and the car in "Sport" mode, it didn't hold a candle to the Corvette GS as far as cornering grip goes. I can only imagine how much better the Nissan GTR is. This is coming from someone who WANTED to like the Boss, but it didn't feel like it cornered any better than a standard 2012 GT. Maybe the Leguna Seca is a whole different animal, and I hope to find-out soon!

                    Leguna seca edition and the race edition (no vin) are all out track cars, and are a very differant animal.

                    A corvette is wider, lighter and has a lower center of gravity so it should hold the corners very well.

                    With that said the GS is a bad bitch, but I'd rather rock a c5 zo6

                      I like it. Too rich for my blood though. I will stick to the 7-800 HP cobras.

                          I personally think they're ugly. They may be fast, quick and handle well.

                          But In the end of the day a Boss 302 will still beat it around a road coarse, and it's not a "supercar" nor does it have turbos or AWD. To me that's inpressive.

                          Can you imagine a AWD gt500? Lol it would rape that jap traps ass.

                          R33s are my favorite of the GTR family. Inline six > v6.
