some more info for you to ponder...official specs have dropped

The GT-R's twin-turbo 3.8L V6 will produce 473 horsepower and 434 ft-lbs. of torque. That's a bit more than the 450 HP many were anticipating, and we're guessing Nissan's official power rating is still a bit conservative, as well. 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds is awfully quick, and there are plenty of supercars out there with more power that can't hit that mark. All-wheel-drive, of course, aids the delivery of each pony to the pavement, while the only transmission available will be a GR6 dual-clutch six-speed.

:ugh:

apparently NONE of you guys have read anything about the new GTR that i post...the exhaust manifolds and the turbine housings are cast as one piece (much like the srt4 setup). its designed that way to save space. it improves flow but its a douche bag design b/c you cant just buy a new turbo and slap it on. the gtr motor itself will be able to take a pretty substantial beating b/c if i recall, virtually everything inside is forged...modding this thing will yield great results
