Nissan GTR

“Sour grapes or legitimate complaint? That’s the question we’re left pondering after reading that Porsche believes Nissan must have cheated to record its 7:29:03 lap time of the famed Nürburgring race circuit. Porsche claims that it had been suspicious of the Nissan’s lap times, so it acquired a U.S.-spec GT-R for testing back-to-back with its own 911 Turbo and GT2. The result? The mighty Godzilla was toppled by the Teutonic German duo, with the GT-R posting times a good 25-seconds slower than Nissan’s claim.

How can Porsche explain the discrepancy? “This wonder car with 7:29 could not have been a regular series production car. For us, it’s not clear how this time is possible. What we can imagine with this Nissan is they used other tires,” says August Achleitner, the man in charge of the 911 program. There is footage of the GT-R lapping the ‘Ring at high speed, but it’s taken from inside the car where the tires cannot be seen.

Considering the fact that Nissan saw fit to issue a press release commemorating the car’s fast-lap, we doubt this is something that will be taken lightly. There’s a big can ‘o worms here, and Porsche’s in the corner holding the opener.”

ugh, lets see where this goes… comments?

Ok, well while surfing around at products for today I came across something I dont think a whole lot of people know about yet, its from a very reputable name, you may know it?

Holley is a great company whom has been providing racers with great products since 1903, one of their well known lines

is probably the most used N2O kit out there in the world of racing. Nitrous Oxide is pretty much horsepower in a bottle if you have been in the dark or in the dark under a rock. Each Nitrous kit wether is be from holley, or from ZEX or Nitrous Express(NX), Venom etc etc, they come with these little valves that are changeable. These are called the nitrous “pill”, by changing the pill it delivers different amounts of horsepower to your vehicle. This burst of energy is called a “shot” of nitrous, cars with minimal modification should use nothing higher then a 30 shot, then there are track cars that use 200-250 shot which is insane, but hey they can handle the power. One thing that n2o users have always been trying to figure out is how to configure how the spray effects the vehicle as far as reaction, I mean to much and you will spin your tires into the trash, not enough and you will lose precious time in the 1/4 mile. Holley has done it again by revolutionizing how we manage our spray, no more switches and valves to try to get this all squared away.

Introducing:

Instead of me going into a field day about everything this beast does, here is some information about it right from the source!

“It combines all the functions a nitrous racer could ever want into a single, easy–to–use controller. This handy device can be programmed to independently control up to 4 stages of nitrous from a laptop computer or via an available full color 3.5” LCD touch–screen. Easy to use graphical software makes the Launcher a breeze to program. The launcher is available in 3 basic configurations. It is available as the launcher controller only; the Launcher controller with 3.5” color LCD touch–screen (Includes stylus and mini SD card for data–logging); or the Launcher controller with the handheld tuner for data–logging and quick changes in the staging lanes. ”

To get all the technical information on it please go HERE. On there you will see a dealer locater on there so you can go and pick yours up today!

Welcome Everybody to another edition of VizX’s The Mod Shop, I Am VizX coming at you today with something thats a very very important part of your cold air intake. This product is called an air bypass valve. The Air Bypass Valve virtually eliminates the chance of hydro-lock should the filter of your AEM Cold Air intake somehow gets submerged in water. On most systems, the valve installs along the upper portion of the inlet pipe and shuts down induction at the filter when it becomes submerged, rerouting the air to keep water out and air flowing in.

You can get this bypass for your AEM Intake HERE for between $50.00 - $60.00

Well thats it for the mod shop this week! Keepin it short and sweet for you ya know. I hope you enjoyed your time! Don’t forget about getting your hands on Flytoyz decals for your ride! Spread The Word, Flytoyz is the truth!
