I can hook it up in a day or two, but it might scare some GTR owners if I do

quick note

Skylineusa mentioned the cobra would win in $4$ depends on the model
and local. in the states the stang would win, but r33 and r32 gtrs come in many prices over here. Theres a few over here that have 700/800hp Power houses and havent even spent 20k on their rides. I'd take that any day over a stang. But piss on Nissan for not getting them to the states sooner.

I never mentioned a Cobra, they did.

I am curious, could you list 20k for 800hp? Are we talking price of the vehical as well?

I could reach 600 pretty easy for 20k with mine as well. 700hp is another ballgame.

Prices

The reason why it does become so cheap over here though is because of the 'hand-me-down' syndrome. Primary owners ofcourse shell out the 9mil(yen) for the car when it first comes out. A few years later they have a few mods on it. Fastfoward to today that GTR is now 8 to 12 years old. So ofcourse we now pay about 8k for the car and another 10 for a new crank shaft, engine and transmission rebuild. 1600 bucks for over sized four piston Brembo cals, and rotars and some new air freshner. The car itself will seem new enough. But even though its been used you still have a 10k rpm engine/drive train terror for the streets. No need for that warrantee cause the life expectancy just went down upon getting behind the wheel. The battle is now obviously in favor for the stang/corbra comparing current 4 current. Over here I'd rather sport a Stang anyhow....We don't see that many of them. Oh and if you're in good ol' Nipon shop on Yahoo Japan auctions. Most after market places charge an arm and a leg over here.

In australia my friend bought an R32 straight from japan for $30K Aus which is $15K US and the car had around 350RWKW, I dunno how much horsepower that is, but its a lot for a $15K US car!
I just found it, thats 470rwhp for $15K US in a street legal R32.
He took the twin setup off and has just put a single T-78 in, but dunno how much power he has now.
He had twin TD05's before.
