You can divert all you want, but like I've said all along it's likely that Porsche got the premium model thinking it's faster like everyone else. So he likely ran on bridgestones too. And DR got 7:55.9 which is almost 8 minutes, barely faster than Nissan's time in the R33.

The guys^^^have already explained BMW's dual clutch problem so I won't get into it but whatever the case, BMW is willing to fix the problem instead of running away from it. You won't see BMW and Porsche deleting any options or functions if they run into a problem. Nissan, on the other hand, has proven that by taking away the LC next year.

Oh, and BMW is fixing their dual clutch problem free of charge. They're not charging their customers 20K. Oh damn. That's what I call standing behind your product.

What does that have to do with anything? Seriously...ask yourself. Does that have ANYTHING to do with Nissan's failure? BMW's recall = covered under warranty.

Your arguments are weak...just the GT-R's transmission.

So let me get this straight...Nissan has figured out a way to defy the laws of physics and statistics by running 3 standard deviations out of the normal regression for power to weight ratio on the 'Ring?

It's an immature response, like when kids argue. When one of the kids starts losing the argument, he brings up some totally irrelevant thing in an attempt to hurt the winner's feelings.

The 7:55 was on a damp track and on Bridgstones. The Bridgestones are notoriously crap in the wet. Examples: One Lap of America, Targa Tasmania Australia etc. If Harris was on the Dunlops - i wouldn't be surprised if he lapped the car 15 sec faster.

Let's see software upgrade which would only happen to some people for BMW with DCT and a complete recall ON ALL JAPANESE GTR oil pumps which would effect the entire motor!! Hmm which one is worse? A stalling of your engine or the blowing up of one?

I am amazed that you even had enough brains to register let alone type.
A problem is still a problem. BMW should've done more R&D, especially when their cars are selling for that much!
And as for Nissan? Well true, the oil pump problems are inexcusable but the "blowing up" of the transmissions is just exaggeration from you and other 'haters' on this forum - not a design fault or manufacturing flaw, but is just due to abuse by the "stupid" owners.
And before you start telling me how much "brains i lack" you should look in the mirror.

So Porsche "thinks" that the premium model is faster so they tested the premium model - despite the fact that Nissan said that the 7:29 was done on Dunlops, and the whole world knows that as a fact as well? So are you making excuses for Porsche's ignorance now?

The 7:55 was "barely faster than Nissan's time in the R33" Do you actually believe that the R35 is as fast as the R33? If you do, then you are really in need of help.

If you had read PROPERLY, it's a response to Mr BMW man ie ///M Kevin's comment of "G(Guranteed) T(transmission) R(replacement)" How ironic.

I did read it properly. Capitalizing the word doesn't change anything. The problems surrounding the recall are in fact recognized and covered by warranty. Nissan has failed to admit a problem, failed to cover an advertised function under warranty, and failed to support the function in future models. What is the underlying theme? Failed. Just like your argument.

Not even in the same ballpark. But you're Z07, I dont expect better of you.
Well HC, if you had spent as much time studying your own posts as you do studying mine - i'm sure you'll pick out a lot of flaws in your argument that aren't very "bright".

I'm not Z07. I'm Z2008.

A well informed individual would laugh at your "Nissan has failed to admit a problem, failed to cover an advertised function under warranty, and failed to support the function in future models" comment. Either you are very ill informed or just plain trolling. I won't go into the details as to why you are wrong - it's been beaten to death enough already.
And i know that you failed to understand my response to ///M Kevin's mocking of the GTR acronym ie G(Guranteed) T(Transmission) R(Replacement), because if you did, you wouldn't of have replied..."what's that got to do with anything" comment. So who is the TRUE failure here?

Circular arguments. Again, weak.

Trolling in my own backyard. Weak.

45 posts total...all on this thread - really really really weak.

You won't go into details again because - you're weak.

There is only one true failure:
