Yup. Tranny issues have been taken care of.

I believe the the big tranny problems were on the 09's, first year of production. And I have read there is a computer fix or upgrade for the 09 tranny problem. So with that being said the guys on the GTR forum recommend getting a 2010 or newer cause there were upgrades to the tranny in 2010. What has been done exactly I am not sure I'm just a forum whore not a mechanic lol.
So now if your looking at a 2010 GTR on autotrader.com your looking at high sixty's for one which still is not bad considering MSRP is over a hundred grand for one. This is still to expensive for me, but in another year or two the way these cars are dropping a person might be able to get into one for a good price.
Like I'm starting to think now is Nissan GTR's are a cheap man's Ferrari and I'm ok with that lol

Id like to see a 1/4 mile race and a 3 lap race around road atlanta or MIR between the two.
But to topic on hand.
I have seen 2 GTRs here around me, I won't even waste my gas trying to run 1 of those.
I'm waiting on a new srt8 jeep to be seen again, I have heard nothing but major issues, being they cant launch hard from a dig anymore

I was gonna give you props if you could. Theres not many 10's or L's that could beat a stock GTR.

meh, i am going the other way. if my next boat goes over 20KTS i will be disappointed with myself. i would be happy with a pair of 3CYL yanmars.
stock gtr's on poor track prep with heat soak on launch control at 950' DA here is 7.6's at 99.... i've seen it several times...

No problem I'll just pick up the AMS Nissan GT-R Alpha 10 Performance Upgrade Package for $63995.00 sounds cheap for 1100 HP.
Actually that's the starting price for that package plus labour no problem lol.:dontknow:

I have also heard the new SRT Jeeps are disappointingly slow. It's a tragedy if true. The first Gen GCSRT's are probably the best performance option from the SRT family.
you have heard correct bro, me & my friend were talking about them yesterday, plus the ecu is encrypted so tight might be 3 years before someone can crack it, heard mopar is not letting anyone in .
Why a manufacturer would kill aftermarket support on purpose is beyond me. And asking consumers to pay 70k for a performance vehicle that underperforms it's predecessor is a chicken move my Mopar.
