Got it. Knew the auto was quicker as mine is very good in full auto mode and TBH I'd hate to have to change gear with the slow manual boxes still being fitted. Granted its no R35 Skyline but it's still good and once it's been back into Roger I'd hazard a guess its going to be well past GTS power levels if its not already.

Close? It got spanked. I'd see no point spending 60k on the GTS with performance like that.

To be fair there was about a second in it and the E63 if fking fast. I'd have a go as mines got more power and a decent box wink , already proven a healthy Big Bang R1 can't get away. biggrin

Is your car tuned? I imagine a tuned bi-turbo E63 against yours would see a similar result to the trouncing in the clip.

Yes tuned, latest Heartbeat supercharger fitted to an LS3 with other bolt ons. Remapped box, suspension etc etc etc. plus a few other bits going on soon at MF. Doubt I'd pull away from the latest E63 but then nothing else will really either.

Yeah, quick cars. I should think a tuned 4WD E63 would be tuned Skyline fast.

Remap on the biturbo will give 550-560 bhp & 700lb torques at the wheels
Not much bar a tuned gtr's or 911 turbo will catch that!!

More than happy with my Gen-F, by far the best one to date out of Aus. thumbup

Been there and done all the pricy stuff which are all so unreliable and as common as muck. frown Cost's you a quid every time you fart in one. laugh

Can't wait for the mods to be done at the end of the month. wink
