R32 GTR vs. 2010 Vette ZR1

[evilgtr]

So my neighbor (single biggest lotto 649 winner in sask history) just added another car to his collection, a brand new ZR1. We are going to eventually take them out and run them but what are your guys thoughts on how the Gtr will do ? I'm currently running 520whp & 486ft/lbs. I know these cars are capable of mid 11 sec 1/4's but that's on the track with a professional driver and practice runs. Im pretty confident il take him but let's hear your input ! Maybe some of you have already taken on the new zr1 ?

i don't know the answer to this but I like your torque numbers

[boomer3]

I would think you will take him. Although the numbers are pretty close. 480lb/ft stock zr1. I really think it comes down to who hooks up best, and who shifts best. I'd think the GT-R will have a better chance.

[bellis_GTR]

I think it would be a pretty close call. You have the AWD advantage so you will get him there. I guess it would be down to reaction, shifting and who ever has higher HP output.

+1 for amazing torque numbers, Your turbo(s) must spool like crazy.

[evilgtr]

Yea they light up really fast, easy to miss shifts if I'm not paying attention it revs really really fast especially with the OS flywheel clutch combo. The new vettes run 335's on The rear so hook and launch pretty damn good, the suspension has been Totally refined to get the power to the ground. They have posted sub 4 second 0-60 times. Having launch control getting me off the line at 13psi and 4500rpm and having AWD will be a advantage but those cars are beastly !

The joke between all our friends is that if I win I will be walking home because he will buy it off me on the spot because he has to have the fastest car haha

Some ZR1 numbers:

638bhp
604ft-lb
3,352 lb
0-60 MPH: 3.3s
Top speed: 205MPH(330km/h)
1/4 mile: 11.2s

Putting it into perspective:

[boomer3]

Sorry, you're right. I was quoting the LS7 torque numbers (that's in the Z06). I guess you would have a little more trouble keeping up than I initially thought. But you'd give the Z06 a nice run.

[Super_Dude]

You should smoke a z06 and give the zr1 a good run. zr1's usually do 530whp but it really depends on the dyno. What dyno were you on and what turbos are you running?

[evilgtr]

I raced a z06 with intake exhaust and tune from a 60km/hr roll in second gear up to xxxkm/hr and was at least 3 car lengths in front it wasn't even close.

Like I mentioned earlier the ZR1 numbers stats posted by a pro and 90% of the time done on a track. The 0-60 have ranged from 3.3 secs to 3.9 and 1/4 miles from 11.1 to 12.1 and Iv also watched numerous real life drags online with as much variance in times. I feel it will come down to the launch, traction, and shifting. I don't abuse my car but am very comfortable driving it and I know how to make it do what i want when want it to he doesn't have that comfort level in his car yet since he has hardly drove it.

If I

Iv got less the. $30k into my car and his was $121k plus tax so even if I lose I can't be to upset haha

[Nismo_line]

thats exaclty what i say to people ie my uncle he always talks trash cuz his 09 ram is fast but like come on if i put 30k into my car and it still wont even be as much as that truck was new and i would killlllllll him i hate when people talk **** because there car cost lots You spent lots of money on stock car its not fast

[QuietChaos]

C6 Z06 numbers:

505hp
470ft-lb
3180lbs
0-60MPH: 3.6s
Top speed: >198MPH(>318KM/H)
1/4 mile: 11.8s

ZR1: ~530rwhp is about right for dyno readings. That's about 18% drivetrain loss. Puts it nearly on par with the OP's GTR, but the ZR1 makes more torque and weighs just 3,352lbs. Not sure how much the OP's GTR weighs, but I'd imagine the numbers are fairly close.

I think a Z06/OP's GTR is a drivers race, but the ZR1 has the upper hand.

[evilgtr]

I had no issues with the Z06, the outcome for him would have much worse if we had gone from a dig rather then a roll. All the boys are excited to see it and from my end I have nothing to lose. He's trying to get out of it already because everyone is bugging him that he might lose to a 20 year old car so I need to make it happen asap or he won't do it.

[boomer3]

Do it this weekend, and let us know! Who cares if you lose, it will be a sweet race man.

[Turboholic]

He will spin guarantee. Get a good launch and pull on him til 4th then let off cause here he comes.

[QuietChaos]

Yeah, we can theorize all we want, but there's only one way to find the result.
