Gnnr · 05-23-2014, 11:07 PM

That engine is being used in the Zeod, not the GT-R LM NISMO.

Kaifd3s · 05-24-2014, 09:27 AM

Yea 400hp is not going to compete with the likes of Audi, Toyota, etc. They need something with more power.

I love watching Le Mans, its just hard finding it here in the US.

I normally stream the audio from Radio LeMans online, and try to find a good HD stream and mute it, haha.

RedRedWine · 05-27-2014, 03:38 PM

I'm guessing this new GT-R LM NISMO will have a hybrid powerplant. Which would fit well with the development for the next generation R36 GT-R.

S14_kouki504 · 05-27-2014, 03:49 PM

It's going to be interesting to see the power plant they decide on and how they plan to complete with Audi and Toyota who are well ahead in the development of these cars

JadedNazgul · 05-27-2014, 07:23 PM

Yeah definitely a Hybrid powerplant, it has to be, almost all motorsport is heading in that direction. Here's an interesting article, it seems the R36 and the GTR LM NISMO are being developed side by side...

S14_kouki504 · 05-28-2014, 05:42 AM

Nice find on the video. i would venture to say that they will unveil the car at this year's Le Mans.

JadedNazgul · 02-01-2015, 09:05 PM

Ok guys I'm bumping this old ass thread, the GTR LM NISMO has been unveiled.

FWD, 1250 hp.....

Here's the Jalopnik article...

Here's the release video...

What do you guys think?

Bushido · 02-01-2015, 10:14 PM

wtf...

Bushido · 02-01-2015, 10:19 PM

SimpleS14 · 02-02-2015, 11:44 AM

FWD?!?! That's odd, especially since the rear wheels are capable of being powered. I'm so confused lol

*!Zar!* · 02-02-2015, 03:48 PM

Front wheel drive will allow the car to get better tire life each stint, and it will free up the back of the car to allow for better air control. Plus, I would imagine the brake balance isn't as drastic while the cars are recovering energy through KERS.

FF cars can hold their own on the track against RWD.

Bushido · 02-02-2015, 05:15 PM

I didn't think a race car could be uglier than the delta wing... but this might take the cake.

I wouldn't even expect this from Honda... Nissan wtf. FWD GT-R race car, is this real life?

BossHogg · 02-02-2015, 05:39 PM

Quit crying. The gas powers the front. The kers can power the rear or front depending on what is needed. Just think of it as reverse atessa. The front is just continually powered instead of the rear. Be happy that nissan is doing new things. They did new things when the R32 came out and look what they did after that. Just expect kers on r36

BOROSUN · 02-02-2015, 05:42 PM

ill be excited to see this p1 car race.

I hope to see that headlight design on the new gtr.

The car isn't ugly. It reminds me of a Panoz Esperante GTR1.

This.

***S14DB*** · 02-04-2015, 07:56 AM

Least we know who will be driving.

BOROSUN · 03-28-2015, 11:48 AM

dang, I hope jann mindset is ok after his gtr got airborne and killing a spect.

simmode1 · 03-28-2015, 08:24 PM

I don't know if I'd be the same after a crash like that. One second, you're leading a Porsche around the course, the next second you just see blue sky through the windshield, followed by a violent wreck that kids somebody. Shit, thats a lot to ask somebody to come back from.
