Nismo R34 Z-Tune competition

Notice that the 1:01:15 time in TSUKUBA is for the Z-TUNE R-TUNE and the "regular" Z-TUNE is 1:03:44
Both are basically race cars but the R-TUNE is literally almost a LM/GT 500 and there are only 1 or 2 in existence, it have better suspension, far better tires, brakes, exhaust, etc. Only talking about Performance Z tune is comparable with a 996 GT2/ Ferrari CS and the R-Tune is literally almost a GT 500/LM... is just crazy. just to have an idea of what performances these cars have.. All amazing and beautiful cars.

By the way, Nissan NEVER claimed a 400m time on this thing contrary to rumors. 10.06 seconds is a fantasy dream created by soyboys on YouTube. I can't even find that time anywhere on Nismo's website.
If you take a look at three of its four listed rivals (360 CS, Murcielago, and 575M), it is clear that this car will NEVER dip into the 10s, let alone a 10.1. A Porsche 911 Turbo S PDK (in 992 guise) barely does that with a rollout on a DRAGSTRIP.
This thing may have trouble even doing 11.7-11.8@120-121mph in the quartermile. It's a great track monster when compared to a 360 CS or an F430 or a Gallardo or maybe even a 996 GT2. One thing for sure though, it is NOT doing 10-second quarter-mile times.
With this kind of power and aerodynamics and transmission, one should expect 0-60mph in 3.8, 0-100mph in 8.4, and 0-150mph in 20.1 (those are just average results, give or take 0.5sec for 0-60 and 0-100, 1.0sec for 0-150). I don't think it has the power to reach 203 mph either. More like 193, or even 183.

This is not a Production car, this is a Recycled used car turned into a GT500 Race car without a roll cage. First of all when Nismo build this car the GTR was no longer on production, they buy it used with less than 30k km and tuned, it Doesnt have the RB26, it has a Z2 Derived from the Lemans/GT500 it has more than 500hp, Sachs made a specific racing suspension for this car, carbon fiber axle, Rays LM lightweight wheels, and a aerodinamic Carbon Fiber kit. Basically a Lemans/GT500 with no roll cage, just a crazy thing like the Renault Espace F1 or the BMW X5 V12.

since nismo is a fairly large well known name - you can consider it to be in the same class as say brabus or hennessey, they only made 19 at the time as far as i know. but if you have the money and an r34 im sure nissan/nismo would transform it for you, i know of countless cars that never even made 100 cars but are still considered a prod. car by car specialists / magazines. i could be wrong about them making more if you have an r34 and the cash....but my point is that this is considered a production car. still, an incredible car....even faster on some tracks than the r35 nismo

Chassis #1 for sale in Australia for over half a million dollars!
I think it's worth the money. It's the most badass GT-R ever.

this is an actual production, believe it or not they placed this car on the market at a price of 17million yen! Thats roughly £120,000(british pounds). But all 19 examples were bought straight away by nismo and nissan executives. The car weighs exactly the same as a stock r34 due to them using dry carbon on the exterior kit and fenders. It does 0-60mph(0-100kph) in 3.8 secs and can just pass 200MPH! It has 510hp not 493. It couldve produced 630hp through the engine but it would not have passed emission regulations

Well, by old wrc standards (I'm citing for examples, I don't know how JGTC judges a production car), the MODEL (meaning exact designation, on this that would be nismo GT-R z-tune) of the car built (not the platform as in just r34) would qualify as a production car when a manufacturer builds at least 200 examples... This car only has 19 so therefore it is not a production car (as much as I like it)though it still qualifies as a vehicle made by the manufacturer because nissan licensed nismo to do the honours. But then again its confusing because nissan bought them used (around 18000kms, no joke) F***ing amazing car though...

How can a car built and tuned by Nissan not be a production car, when it was entirely based on a full production car?
So what if the donor cars were 2.hand, they didn't have 20,000 miles on the clocks when they were sold, they had 0 miles and full warranty.

Your basically saying that because the car has been used then re-built and re-branded by Nissan/Nismo that no longer makes it a production car? There's two sides of a coin to this. How can it be a production car when they no longer have the production line for the R34 but then again weren't the R34's they used made on a production line. I fail to see that how a car is made should determine if it's times are included or not that's like me saying a hand built car is not allowed to be timed because it didn't role off a prodution line.

AMG have sold cars based on previous models of Mercadies only difference being they sold them as new cars because production had not ceased on those models. I bet Nissan and Nismo would have done exactly the same if they had the idea before the car production ceased in 2002 all Nismo did is experiment, build then re-brand a new model of car off one that was already built and sold on the market because they had no way of building a new R34 GTR unless they setup a complete new factory and start producing again (cost!). Personally I fail to see the difference here apart from the fact that the cars had been used before being completed.

I wish Nismo would offer to mod my R34 to a Z-tune :)
Anyway I would own one over a R35, and it was only $170,000 so that's not too bad for a car with only 19 examples around and is quite fast. For 1999 to 2004 tech it's still a fast car.
I love my R34 GTR but it's not super fast, it's just sexy and fun. They were made for mods but I prefer mine stock.
