That was a joke. Kinda. I don't mind the updates. Id like to see a vid of it though. Like at a track or something to see how fast it really is.

Honestly, it's looking like there will always be room for improvement and I have to establish some sort of realistic goal and stick to it. Once I reach it, acknowledge the hard work that it took to get there and that I have to be satisfied with my car's huge progress at that stage.
I'm the type to never be complacent and I'm my biggest critic. Even though I have reached certain positions in my career that people wish to be in, with my same degree and with like 10+ years of experience, I'm in there with barely one year in. And it's like I don't notice it and just brush it off and am looking for ways to further increase my credentials, education, etc. Same goes with my body, women, everything.
I'm a perfectionist who is never satisfied, and it's a gift and a curse.

Oh for sure, man. Videos and pictures will come if it ever gets to that point.
With the power I'm at now, I'm capable of running mi 11's with the proper tire and suspension setup. I'm only at 343whp.

I want a GTR bros, I gotta have one.
Nelson have you driven a stock one and can compare it to the ///M? I know they aren't in the same class obviously.

I still haven't had the opportunity. The reviews i get from my boss and other reliable sources aren't exactly great. He says it's a cool car and very fast but just a bland driving experience that you get bored of quickly. I still want to drive one and still love them, but if i was going to spend GTR type money i would 100% buy a Porsche. Most likely a 997 Turbo. It's just a better looking car, more refined, much better interior, more fun to drive (so i've heard), and still plenty fast. Oh and it comes in Manual.

Yeah of course Porsche is always going to be one of the kings but once the 09-10 GTRs drop under $50k they are going to be pretty hard to pass up at that price.
I personally don't give a **** about a true manual either

You're right on the GT-R comment. There was a guy cross-shopping tuner cars since he owns a lot of exotics. Test drove the GT-R and an STi and went with the STi since he said he felt way too disconnected from the car in the GT-R. Like I said before, my 15 year old cousin can most likely whip the hell out of a fairly high horsepower GT-R.
Is it fast? For sure. Will you pay probably just as much as the car itself to get it to 1,000+whp? If you're buying new parts then you're looking at $100k for that power. Standard bolt-ons and E85 might run you close to like $20k after everything is installed and tuned and you'll probably be at 650+whp, no E85 you're looking at like $10k for just standard bolt-ons and a tune, no messing with your fueling. You'll also get spanked by an STi with similar horsepower (Probably 680whp to account for the DCT vs. 6-speed), with better performing mechanical components, aside from the DCT (Which can be proven by consistent back to back to back to back to back Rally, Nurburgring, Isle of Man, etc. titles).
Maintenance for a GT-R is also costly, more than an M3. And if you blow a motor, or transmission good luck. If you have the money for it and are ok with knowing that your car is doing most of the driving for you then it's the perfect performance car.
Junior (#Jrtuned) owns probably $500+k in cars and doesn't own an R35 GT-R. There is just no challenge to you as a driver, but it will get the job done and can run high 10's stock. The GT-R DCT is no joke.

Not sure what him owning one has to do with anything?
, but you do know he actually does own one right?. Does this make the GT-R a beast now? 
I remember him telling the story of his teenage son using launch control on his driveway and him freaking out, when I got my car tuned by him, only reason i remember. But it might have been a fake jr or someone else going by that name tuning, not sure. Had to of been since I don't really know what I'm talking about and you do.
