oh and the fastest EVER time at nurburgring by a tuned (not race car) by a nissan is 7min-54seconds.
fastest ever time at the nurburgring by a tuned nsx-r(yes the uber special one) is 7min 56second
yeah but untill you get to 4k you have no power, just standard 2litre power, like i have just standard 2litre power until turbo spools, but at 3k
i choose to ignore the comment on the fd2 and r34gtr purly because you cant deny facts. but im sure the r35 will beat the fd2 around it.
Also what about times at the nurburgring, your hondas best time round their is the basically race spec nsx at 8.38, then s2000 at 8.39 and then civic at 8.47. Our datsuns have the 350z at 8.26 and r35gtr at 8.22.
You have to remember your commenting on a car which is easily 19-16years old comparred to the civics and integras which are 10max

Not bad then, for a car that was designed and developed in 1990, to only be 2 seconds off the pace, without any form of forced induction
As for the other comments, you're forgetting some crucial factors - one is the price, the R35 is a £70k car isn't it? and the 350/R35 are both rwd sports cars in the same catagory as Boxster-S, Caymen-S etc. Granted, the S2000 is also in the roadster catagory, but it's not really anything special, it's not a Type-R, it's just a £27k Honda.. the most expensive available as it happens, they should've made an R version, but never bothered, not much market for it I don't think.
This is a debate that could go on forever, but clearly, if Datsun were any good they would be higher in the rankings, but as it happens they're only the 3rd biggest manufacturer in Japan, nevermind the world.
PS - Integra's came out in '96, so they are older than you think

What was the Datsun though, you never said.. you compared an NSX-R against an unknown. It could've been a modified R35, in which case it's a 2008 car vs a 1990 car, whichever way you look at it! So 2 seconds, FI or not, is still pretty damn good, can be down to driver alone, on a track the size of the 'Ring.
I think another FIAT has broken down while we've been posting this. You watch, you'll see a "My GT has just died" thread pop up any moment.....

the one modified was a r34 so atleast 7years old
i like the fact we have our own thread now too
Seperated by my good friend, Superdan
Anyway, to carry on about this 'Ring business...
NSX-R = standard Honda produced car.Originally Posted by wikipedia

cheek the graph whilst i find the thread i found the info on with the fact they were modded
I'm looking, and it's .1 of a second slower than a 2008 Nissan GT-R, set last month infact.
The NSX-R doesn't have any airbags, spare wheel, sound deadening, stereo, stability control, aircon etc etc etc.
Modified. Pah, it came from the factory like that. Get out.
