Classic Cars and the 700hp GT-R. -Garage419

WOW ... Matt finally acknowledged the plastic interiors that ruin otherwise neat cars like the Mustang, Corvette and new Challenger. BTW: Hennessey is going to have some problems if they market their modded GT-R as a Godzilla. The Japanese firm that owns the rights to the name already took a company to court this year for using the name.

* THANKS FOR REMOVING AUTO START! :D Can't explain how frustrating it used to be. *** So, if someone has a GT40, how can they get spare parts??? 700GTR? I think the car itself is so overqualified that the stock might not feel so fast simply because it does everything so well. The extra poop might just give it that 'go fast' feeling it may have been missing? Great show. What time will Thursdays show be posted?

thanx colleptic for taking the words outta my mouth in refrence to what Tug said. good show.

The transmission itself is fine. It is the launch control feature that caused all the problems, which will no longer be in future GT-Rs. This transmission should be fine if you drive it right. Any trans over 600hp, if bagged on, will break anyhow...even in cars built for it from factory.

I've only got one thing to say about. 2002 good choice.

Hennessey doesn't seem to have the brightest engineers... "# Air Induction System Upgrade # Electronic Boost Controller # Stainless Steel Turbo Down Pipes # Stainless Steel Mid-Pipe Exhaust Upgrade # Stainless Steel Rear Section Exhaust Upgrade # Wastegate Actuator Upgrade # Front Mount Intercooler System Upgrade " Yet forget the most important part...the transmission.. Like said in the videos, it is crap. Can't handle 400ish hp, what will it be at 700hp?
