Not to mention the stability afforded to the GT-R with its 4WD system, cornering and in a straight line its faster. But simply put they're from different worlds, the GT-R is a supercar, the W427 is a super saloon in the league with the Lexus IS-F, Mercedes C63 AMG.

i new people were stupid but this is crazy to even think a holden is on the same page!
a keyboard warrior haha mate you are a strange strange person
Theres not much point in the argument, both cars are aimed at doing different things and they both do them well.

and yet the video proves all, i never said a 3.8 S/C is the worlds quickest street machine now you are just being a wanker like a typical jap car owner with a small engine.
Notice the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 eats the GTR for lunch around the ring! W427 has the same engine.

The ZR1 is set up for going fast around corners, and is a shit load lighter than the W427. Your lack of comprehension amazes me, its like arguing with a 5 year old.

I say go for it, lets put your money where your mouth is. This needs to be buried in the ground.

Well for a 6k daily driver the falcon makes your 900hp nissan look very expensive. Never have doubted your cars abilities,once you posted the links in another thread. Well The falcoon is my sons new car has got decompression gaskets and standard engine,and yes 6k the lot roadworthy and reg in brisbane,infact I sent a link to fish aka mellissa2000. What did the 900hp cost you!

but according to ct9a American and Australian cars don't handle at all and the GTR is Superior remember Nissan still makes the Sunny and that can never be swept under the rug.

Coming from the person who has excuses not to race him and has had plenty of opportunity to. (PS I'm not taking side, just sitting on the fence top)

Have been passenger to a Commodore with a 308 in it flying around Taupo, this thing was overtaking just about everything on the track. I can't stand people that say Australian/American cars can't turn a corner.
I get where you are coming from in that respect, also have seen a Torana with a Corvette engine in it outpacing cars with much more advanced technology.
In the end Euros best :P

the fact of the matter is ct9a is acting like a total wanker and rubbishes everything not made in Japan or thats not a GTR when i bet he hasn't even set foot in a modern HSV, each cars have their own merits and yes i have had a decent go an in R34 GTR pretty amazing car but there is no getting away from the back breaking ride there is no way in hell you could take that thing on a long trip comfortably on our roads.

and he seems to take offence to the fact a breathed on Holden Super 6 actually has decent real world performance without taking out a 2nd mortgage to pay for it and always makes smart arse cracks about it, if i didn't know better i would say hes intimidated by it.

Ah fair enough, yeah given the choice I'd take the W427 over the GT-R (I wish). Some people just seem to be obsessed with that .5 seconds faster at the sacrifice of comfort, exactly why I want my 4motion VW Bora. I can cruise in comfort and have my fun when I want it.

yeah they are a nice car, the W8 Passat is more than worth a drive as well.

always amazes me how someone comes on here asking a legitimate question only to have the homo brigade jumping in with the 'my car (or rather the one I pull myself to sleep about everynight) is better than your car' crap. So the guys got a V6 & its got a 'charger but wants it to go better or maybe isnt running right & wants to find out. whats wrong with that! Dont think for a second that everyone is going to rush out & buy what you like just because youve aired your unquestionable & obviously superior opinions on TM.

6k on a japper would have gone faster and be more reliable
