To answer some more questions: 1. No new car purchases coming soon. Going to do some investing for now. What I really want is a house and then I can bring y’all more content of me actually working on my cars. 2. Honestly don’t know if I’ll ever get in anything JDM again. 3. The *MAIN* reason I sold this car is the fact that it was just flat out boring. And it seems that everyone that disagrees with me there hasn’t driven one lol. 4. I liked the car for the first week or so, but the novelty of the car quickly wore off and I got tired of it. 5. I sold it for more than I bought it for ;) 6. Good lord, some people are so hurt by this video and it’s hilarious.
Drew I honestly didn’t even realize the R35 is that bad. It’s like other car channels on UA-cam say how amazing it is but I think it’s just for views. And so they don’t get hated on. Awesome video keep up the good work.
Drew, I think you made a wise move out of the GTR life. I had no idea it sucked, as I agree with you now it does. The Corvette life fits things well, in my opinion, on this channel. Thank you for just being honest about it, its a pig on freeway rolls.
Didn’t think it’d be as boring and soulless as it was. You CLEARLY didn’t watch the whole video and just latched on to one point that made you feel some type of way. Crazy people who have never driven a GTR want to tell me why I need to like it
@@CarsAcrossTexas I watched the whole video of you complaining about this and that but fail to realize the main thing, YOU didn’t build the car so how could you honestly enjoy something that someone else beat to shit? And I’ve driven a 2010 GTR and currently own a 1992 R32 gtr. I’m not telling you that you have to like the car and I have no animosity towards you because it’s your opinion but IMO you bought a car that you couldn’t afford 🤷🏼
@@CarsAcrossTexas No, we just wonder why you didn't know before you bought it.....wonder why your clueless. You have car knowledge but didn't know a GTR wasn't for you 🤔
Honestly your gtr is built like shit your saying and it seems like not hating but honestly I’ve drove one... bet you the 1st owner beat it through the roof and you didn’t know 😭
I need to give you a lecture on why this car is not overhyped next time I see you. You did buy a clapped out one just saying and the newer ones are better. Also you can get gtrs for high $30,000 my buddy got one for $36,000 2009 50,000 miles. Not hate but just saying the gtr is not overhyped and you’re not understanding what a gtr really is about.
They can be beat by cars that are a lot cheaper... A new one goes from $100,000 to $200,000 and a $50,000 Mustang can beat it... It's fast around a track but there's cars that are even faster for less... Buy a Mustang or a charger and use the money to build it up and you'll have a car that will smoke it... It's overrated and overhyped... The only GTR that's not is the KCG10
Also how I feel about my 2015 Q50 3.7L awd. Very boring, no drama. It is refined, smooth, and surprises me and my car friends when we roll race. But its not all that fun(I get it low 20kish car when I bought it). Thats why I’m seriously about to supercharge it on flex fuel with SOHO motorsports supercharger kit. Or sell my car as is to the right buyer and save for a rwd CTS-V or something.
@@campos9896 oil consumption, bad quality leather seats, plastic everywhere, pretty vanilla drive quality. I’m sure there is more but that’s what I can remember. Ask exhaust tone is pretty trash now that I’ve heard other cars.
Haven't watch the video yet but I already know what you are gonna say. I just wanna point out one thing. You bought a clapped out car, both turbo seals leaking (your words on a past video) and that crap. How are you gonna expect a perfect car if you bought one of the worst available? Now I'm gonna watch the video and later on I'll decide if I need to delete or not this comment
One slightly and I mean SLIGHTLY leaking turbo seal isn’t going to make this car go from great to incredibly boring. That is the only slight mechanical fault with the car. The car still made normal boost levels and everything
What you’re trying to convey is that the GTR it’s just too safe and doesn’t have the exhilarating feel regardless of how fast you’re going or how hard you’re driving it
@@kanervatie 🤨 Idk if you’re serious but if you are I see you’re not a car enthusiast or at least you’re on the toxic side. I didn’t know it’s not a car for men that’s weird you learn something new every day. Have a good day 👍🏽
So you didn’t like it pretty much from the start, found out it’s crazy expensive to make big power cause you never did any research on the car, then complain about a clapped out 7 year old car’s build quality. Cool You’re like a walking encyclopedia at car meets with all the knowledge you have of so many cars, I wonder why you didn’t use that same skill to research a car you were interested in buying?
I was looking at a GTR, test drove it and didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. Decided on getting a 2018 bmw m4 comp with only 10k miles, fully packaged out too
exactly what everyone goes through after they get walked a few times after spending some money on speed, you can really never be happy unless you put the big bucks in
One of the must STRAIGHT honest video talking about this car, no BS. The fan boys keep making the price on this car high and both worth a dollar for no reason honestly. Thank you sir!
I mean pretty much everyone who has owned at 17'+ plate gtr has said it's much better than the previous gen. I never really get why people complain about older model cars when there are newer/better versions out already. Let's not forget the gtr came out in like 2008, and up until 2015 had a few changed here and there but the model you have is basically based on the 08' model.
That’s crazy? I didn’t know I crashed accelerating? I thought I crashed on a half complete highway in the rain on a highway known to make cars hydroplane? But I guess you were there and remember better than me. Fucking idiot lmfao
Not gonna lie, I was waiting for you to post a video like this. I've owned one and traded it in towards my 2020 GT500 which in everyway blew the doors off my GTR.
You say it sounds terrible. Well that is all up to interpretation, people like different sounds. Don’t get me wrong the sound of a cammed out v8 is amazing and nothing beats it. But I have heard a bunch of really amazing sounding GTRs. I feel you need to drive a newer updated one. Maybe one who the owner has taken pride in ownership and actually cared for the car, not a clapped out pile that you bought. Love the videos man, and everybody has their opinion on things. But I personally do feel that you need to experience one that is owned by a GT-R enthusiast.
@@CarsAcrossTexas Well considering a GTR was made for power and to handle well on a road course I think it does it's job. You say that is boring but the damn thing does not feel like it wants to kill me nor a crowd like a mustang or Vette does. You want to talk about boring how about the fact that a Mustang and Vette are so common that even a GT500 from a distant looks like just a mustang. And those cars mostly focus on power but not the handling aspect. Even in the Old Top Gear review when the GT500 first came back they paired it up against a Roush and the Roush with less power was faster on their track because Roush worked on the handling more! Plus your GTR is so dirty looking on the outside. I will admit they needed to upgrade the transmissions on all you talked about. They have hardly done anything to make the transmission better in those ways and only dealt with the issues of it breaking the like transfer case in the CBA models. But considering this car can outperform super cars on a road course it is a fantastic car that is not boring. But if you just want to go fast in a straight line then there is your boring aspect! Yes parts can cost to mod this car but it not at the super car price tag, but not at the American muscle car price to mod either. It is in between where it should be.
All cars get expensive over time but it’s the love that makes it worth doing. This is kinda your job too so it makes sense to drive something you love. My Volvo has more money in parts than the cars worth, but I love it so I’ll continue dumping money into it.
American muscle gives the full experience 💪🏼 also the gtr would be enjoyable if it was over 1,000whp and hooking up on the street taking money 😂😂 but that’s a tough road to commit to especially when you’re over the car so soon and I heard it’s a bit more expensive and exclusive to mod I guess you said it all haha it’s not worth the money for where it’s going to sit at for a while
In my humble opinion, you did not spend time and money on it and you were hoping it would look fly & fly. Watch the fast tx2k gtr's and how beautiful they look.
@@CarsAcrossTexas I feel ya bro, was just an opinion. I love your videos and you do a great job of covering tons of cars meet/shows/races. P.S: Please get a camera stabilizer & Mic. P.P.S: Much love & respect from Canada
@@CarsAcrossTexas then that’s you opinion man, your only one person with a lot of subs like everyone else. Or your just a muscle head because it’s not that bad IMO🤷🏾♂️.
@@user-rl6px5ob3d exactly i own a 15 black edition his gtr looks like it has high miles an wasn't taken care of.. all these people in the comments agreeing with him because they cant afford one and bashing it is what gets on my nerves lol. its a great car and will gap a vette any day of the week... its a awesome made car considering its the same car since 2009 with minor changes.
I agree 100% with you. Having driven lots of different cars on track (one with turns and stuff), the GTR was by far the most boring car on a road course. I can see going fast straight being fun, but I prefer g forces in turns while working around other cars on the track. Going fast straight doesn't do anything for me anymore. So yea, just my 2 cents.
100% agree and respect your opinion but I feel like as far as the build quality this previous owner just straight up didn’t take care of his car at all
I had a GT-R poster on my wall for 6 years. Test drove one and absolutely hated how boring it was. Ended up buying a C7 Z07 manual. I’ve had it for 2 years of daily driving and I adore it. Also smoked a GT-R on the highway yesterday while I had the targa top in the trunk haha! By the way, I felt the same way about the C8 too. Boring, gutless little thing and I spent 3 hours with one
@@StanMarshimportskillUSjunk Stan, your dad has no tegridy. Z07 has better track times, better braking numbers, better grip numbers on the skid pad and is faster as discussed in the earlier comment lol. GT-R not very fast after the launch. Also sounds like shit compared to a supercharged V8. No drop top and no manual.
Exactly why would you buy a car you don’t like, if he’s a muscle guy than why the hell would you buy a import. This guys opinion is not viable at all in my opinion.
I like your videos a fan of racing myself but it's not a boring car they are nice but we know you just addicted to more power because you have a built z06 even stock the z06 is a better experience all I'm saying is don't throw the gtr under the bus like that bro
You bought a gtr expecting all that when you could upgrade it yourself to give yourself all those perks. Itsjusta6 gtr is a prime example of what a gtr can be like in the right hands
@@CarsAcrossTexas get a garage or a place where you can work on it. The last owner probably dogged the crap out of it maybe thats why it doesn't perform like it should. Well anyways thats just my views on the whole GTR they are some great cars if you put the time and money into one.
This is why I'm into muscle, you can get just about anything you want for cheap and have it reliably. There's just so much you can do to a vette for cheap compared to tuners.
@@TheHoff4K yeah but they can't really put power to the ground, or get the reliability of an LS. Hondas are great but personally I'd take a vette or a 90's camaro over a honda any day.
@@ripinpieces8387 what are you saying is unreliable? I know Honda’s that run a very long time. And there are GTRs still going strong. If you abuse any car it will be unreliable. And newer GTRs have fixed issues that made things unreliable.
@@TheHoff4K yeah but a stock civic is reliable, a boosted one isn't nearly as much as an ls1. My friends got a brother that's into hondas and he can't really keep them for more than a month at a time, I get you beat on them alot they will break but an ls1 can be more reliable than a honda for the same price in my eyes.
@@ripinpieces8387 well then he is doing something wrong as I grew up with friends who built civics all the time and still do. And they didn’t have issues if done right
@@CarsAcrossTexas Just wondering why you didn't know this before hand? You said you drove them before, why with your knowledge you still bought one and a riced out one at that.
American power is what some of just love and are made for brother! Do what you love keep the videos coming! Cant wait to see more corvette videos! 😎💪🏽🦅🇺🇸
I don't blame you Drew, you're just a Corvette kind of guy. Your always happy when you're behind the wheel of one because you enjoy what the car can do. 😎👍
cars are all about how they drive. i still haven't driven a gt-r, but found myself hyping it based on its reputation. you don't know what you like with cars till you try them
like the vid but yeah bro I seen fbo a10’s giving you a run for your money I was out there too and those 10 speeds weren’t playing , know your local there’s one in SA for 26k it’s a clean title but was in a accident since it’s gonna be taken to Mexico I don’t think a branded title would affect performance , it looks good it got rebuilt right it’s at novak in SA, fbo whipple ? 👀
When you buy a GTR you don’t pay for build quality or speed (though they are relatively quick), you pay for a name. That’s literally it. It’s like going to Walmart and buying the name brand stuff because it’s “better” than the Great Value (Walmart brand) stuff. When in reality it’s not, you’re simply paying for a name. Love the R35, but would never own one.
I can say I agree with you in some ways. I love the gtr and still want one but I have ridden in a 700hp gtr built by jotech and I’ve also driven a stock c7 zo6. After I drove the zo6 I can say I would take that over a gtr in the long run. Both great cars in my opinion but for the money, z06 is the way to go
I want you to get a CTS-V but I understand you already have that insane Corvette. Also I kinda don’t want you to buy one because I’m considering one and don’t need the price to sky rocket due to more hype lol. CTS-V’s are one of my favorite and very slept on I feel like. No popular UA-camrs have one as far as I know.
yup but anyway, be careful out there if you see any white new camaro’s! in fact it’s a zL1 and it’s a sheriff’s patrol vehicle and there are a few out there. 😜😂🙀😳
Drew Im from Canada and watch every video you have put out...... As one person already commented. You never did look happy with the Gtr. Get what you really want if you can afford it cuz you live life once and it goes fast..... Love the content and the events you go to.... Keep up the good work
Yeah they're two different cars man the ZO6 is more Hands-On driver-focused due to the manual transmission and the GTR is more of a gimme power and I'll show you how I can handle it in all wheel drive
I’m debating between a Supra and a GTR for my next car. After I build my wrx, it’ll be a hard decision. To me, riding in a stock GTR was the fastest car I’ve been in and I thought it felt like a rocket ship.
Dual clutch is horrible in any car. Not really sure why you would expect a transmission to operate shifting in the way that a manual would. They are designed to be a hybrid, not efficient. Over engineered and worthless concept.
Not about “cheap”, but more about smiles per $ spent. The GTR is a POS. Can’t catch me buying a built trans for $20k just for it to still be a clunky shit box
You definitely should have went with a 2017+ and I also have boosted vette (1000+) and it will make the GTR feel slow. And not to be a dick but I saw your GTR in person and it was not in great shape. In my 17 I have no idea what you’re taking about with the trans noise. At least you gave it a shot.
@@CarsAcrossTexas understandable but like the GTR it’s SO expensive to make them competitive. The GTR (FBO & 🌽)is a fun daily and if I really care about winning a race I have the Vette. But if you get a Viper you will finally have your real super car and at your age that’s super impressive sir!
I find it hard to believe that any person that was ever interested in a GTR, and got one would be this unhappy with it. Pure click bait. Funny how most races where the GTR loses are from a roll. Show me one from a dig... And it's not a straight line, drag car.
I have to agree. Aside from the price of upgrades, the cheap materials, or even the transmission. The biggest negative to the R35 is that it's boring plain vanilla styling. Honestly I think you'd be more inclined to throw that kind of money for upgrades at an R32 or R33. Those had soul, and distinctive styling. Nissan made a major error with development of the R35, and honestly as much as go fast parts make a rowdy boy car it's not the only thing; there's gotta be style and soul to it also. That's why Hellcats, Corvettes, and Camaros have made for such a large amount of the mid level racers. They all have style and soul to them. Manufacturers listen up! If you're going to make a factory race build pay attention to styling too don't make Nissan's mistake.
Gtr fan boy here, only because I own one lol. If you plan on modding the car past fbo/e85 the price jump from cba to dba isn’t worth it. Get a cba and mod the heck out of it and see why it wins events. Another point is you don’t need an awd dyno. Just remove the front driveshaft to dyno. If your goal is to just roll race you can make 800hp/650tq on a stock motor/trans.
Probably cause gtr's rot and never run... I would never pay $150,000 for a Nissan.. That will be worth 45 to $50,000 in 5 years.. there Just recycled tuna cans with a trash motor
Great video. I have never been in a GTR and have wondered what it was like. But to be honest, I'm very biased. It has to be a three-pedal manual transmission for me. You can put me the latest/greatest hyper car and it would be still be disappointing because of the transmission. But I get it, companies have to turn a profit.
Bro, you got a 2014 fbo GTR, its slow as hell and deserves to get gapped considering that the platform is going on to 12 years. Secondly, you can keep on building that vette and it will never be able to beat a fully built GTR no matter what you throw at it. Lastly, your 2014 is 7 years old, yes 7, I’d expected a clapped out 7 year old gtr to have the grill bubbling up like that, as for the panel gaps, I’m sure the wrap guys removed the panel and didn’t reinstall it properly. In conclusion, you're comparing 2 totally different cars with different purposes, an FBO GTR isn't a going to gap anything on the street. No hate, but you had no clue what you bought and just bought it to say you had one.
So you’re saying a GTR should get gapped my NA mustangs and camaros, all while being a less exciting, more expensive to maintain car? The problem isn’t that I bought and old one. A car being 7 years old shouldn’t make it a slow POS. I had a 2010 C6 Z06 way back in the day and bone stock that was a more exciting car to drive that kept up with the same damn cars walking the GTR in the video. My C7 when stock might’ve made 550whp and was still a more exciting drive. The previous owner had the dyno graphs from the car and video to match saying this car was 650hp. If I wanted to I could’ve made this car 1200hp. Guess what? It’d still be the most boring 1200hp on the planet. I’d rather save my money from modding a POS import and get a Viper lmao. And that’s crazy too, my 10 year old C6 when I had it didn’t have any sort of bubbling grille or misaligned panels? Hm. I thought cars that were old we’re going to have problems like that???
@@CarsAcrossTexas It’s an old platform. FBO unfortunately isn’t fast anymore. Your car had no reason to get gapped by any of those cars you listed if they were truly stock or lightly modded, I have had plenty of runs with the cars you’ve ran, and never got gapped the way you did on fbo. Maybe you did buy a clapped out GTR, maybe your tune was bad, so many factors. You mentioned in your video that if you were to build you’d go to a shep 1k or 1.5k , then said that would be a good upgrade for a 1k whp that just shows you were clueless about the platform. No disrespect btw I’ve been watching your YT for a while now and enjoy the content. I just feel like you jumped into something that you without any research.
@@pfizzle1 I’ve been looking into getting a GTR for at least a year now. I almost bought one over the C7 a year ago. I’ve done my fair share of research. I just thought 650hp would be a little more exciting to at least tide me over until I was ready to spend the money but after driving the car I realized I don’t want to spend any money on it lol
Awesome video. I'm on the fence between a 2018 or newer Porche 718 GTS or a 2014 -2016 GTR. I can't justify 80k for a GTR. My Audi s3 has a nicer interior and I feel like the Porche will be more fun to drive. Thanks for the honesty 💪
its sad when someone really likes something and they buy a not so good one or a "bad" one and have a bad experience one that hasnt been beatin on i bet you would see it different.. this happens alot. its just like getting food from somewhere that you know is good, but maybe that store or cook is bad and then you have a bad experience. sorry this issue happened to you. and yes alot of noobs do overhype the car, but real car people know what they have and know what it is. stay safe!
I agree. Local buddy to me has a 2k+hp gtr and goes to 2k every year. It’s fast as hell but still just meh. It’s boring even for it being ungodly fast. Not to mention mods cost. Insane. I’ll gladly still to a 6th gen zl1 1le, c6 zr1 or c7z for that price range
You do have a solid point 1. It does take a lot of money to put into the car to make it fast 2.definitely is overpriced but just because gtr have been icons but for the stock speed is definitely overpriced In my perspective I love Jdm cars and I do think they are over hyped a lil but I respect on what you say on the gtr cause it’s everyone’s opinion and they’re always gonna have different taste which is understandable
I THINK THE NEXT CAR YOU SHOULD GET IS A VIPER YOU ALWAYS SAY THAT YOU LOVE ❤️ IT BROTHER! ! BUY A CAR THAT HAS A SOUL IN IT! ROB OTTA LAS VEGAS 🙋🏻♂️🚗
when you were building up the hype of you getting this car, i was extremely happy for you because you seemed excited. But truth be told, i was thinking he could have gotten something waaaaaaaayyy better. The GTR to me is an overhyped car that looks like a 350z in the front, skyline in the back made in the cheapest way. like you said, this car lacks soul and i think the reason is because of the cheap mashup and playing on a "nostalgia" (which they missed the mark) for the R34.
I never own one or driven a gtr but what ive seen and researched the car has allot of potential to make power its a good budget super car. For the most part no one is using it for there day by day things i know a few people that has one they use it for weekends every car has there pro and cons its all depends what you wanna do with it I respect your opinion sounds like V8 cars is for you not jdm
I’m always into fast American muscle cars don’t get me wrong a lotta imports are fast but youll never see me in one. Too ricey for me and the tuner exhaust is just eh.
Look I’m not a huge gtr person but I think you just didn’t buy the right one like look at stradmans it is absolutely gorgeous and doesn’t look cheap of plastic at all I understand where your comming from and I agree with parts of what you say like it’s boring and gets clapped by most cars
At the end of the day, it’s still a Nissan. I bought a 2009 370z and have regretted it since. Love the look of the cars, love how Z’s look, love how the GT-R’s look, but they’re still just Nissans. Kinda sucks that such nice looking cars are built kinda cheap but I guess if they were built like super cars, they would be worth as much as super cars and not have the hype they have for being ‘affordable super cars’.
Lotta salty bois in this comment thread about you getting rid of the GTR. Guarantee you none of em have ever driven one. I'm glad its gone. I think JDM cars are overrated anyway. Lexus is like the only one with any soul.
Sale it to a real GTR fan boy he will show you how to make that GTR 1600whp with 25k into it and some Fab work😂😂 but I am a zo6 boy love the C7 content
@@TinoushGTR Yeah but theres a point where you need to build the motor ,trans, and drivetrain and thats when things get expensive. Theres a reason those big companies like cicio, ams, and jotech charge 6 figures for those insane 1500+ hp builds. a ams crate engine costs 40-50k alone
The outrage of GTR boys in the comments is hilarious. The beautiful thing about cars is there is a perfect car for everyone out there and you don’t have to like everything.
Shit man if I lost to n/a Mustangs and Camaro’s I’d be disappointed too 😅 I love GTR’s but for that kinda money I’d rather go for a 13-14 GT500, C7Z06, C6Z06, C6ZR1, 03-04 Cobra, Shelby GT350, Hellcat, or a ZL1. Or just get a 10r80 Gen 3 Mustang and build that thing into a monster 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Honestly I agree with you, mustang or c6 z06 or any sort of american muscle over that GTR all day. Not only because I like american muscle better, but because they can be faster with way less money spent, and they sound better, look better, just all of the above. American muscle is the only way i'll go unless it's a random daily driver car.
You talk about a 10r80 mustang.....I did exactly that. I have a grand total of $40k into my '18 gt auto including the cost of the car with boost. absolutely DESTROY every single gtr i come across AND I don't sound like a God dam out of tune shitty trumpet. You made the best decision to get rid of that over priced, extremely over hyped trumpet. Yea, gtr fan boys going to hate, but ignore them. A good 95% of them can't afford it, get all their info from other biased and blinded fan boys and are ignorant to everything else that is not a gtr. You made the right choice.
To answer some more questions:
1. No new car purchases coming soon. Going to do some investing for now. What I really want is a house and then I can bring y’all more content of me actually working on my cars.
2. Honestly don’t know if I’ll ever get in anything JDM again.

You did buy a clapped out one just saying and the newer ones are better. Also you can get gtrs for high $30,000 my buddy got one for $36,000 2009 50,000 miles. Not hate but just saying the gtr is not overhyped and you’re not understanding what a gtr really is about.
They are waaay oveehyped imo.
Just like supra's.
But I agree that car is beaten up LOL
They can be beat by cars that are a lot cheaper... A new one goes from $100,000 to $200,000 and a $50,000 Mustang can beat it... It's fast around a track but there's cars that are even faster for less... Buy a Mustang or a charger and use the money to build it up and you'll have a car that will smoke it... It's overrated and overhyped... The only GTR that's not is the KCG10
This is how I felt about my G35. I wanted one forever...Sometimes its best not to meet your hero's 😅
GTR was never a hero car for me but it was on my bucket list. Now I’ve crossed it off and don’t have to own it again
Definitely felt the same after owning a couple. they just have more issues that it’s worth. Definitely not a JDM guy anymore.
Dang what's wrong with the g35?
Also how I feel about my 2015 Q50 3.7L awd. Very boring, no drama. It is refined, smooth, and surprises me and my car friends when we roll race. But its not all that fun(I get it low 20kish car when I bought it). Thats why I’m seriously about to supercharge it on flex fuel with SOHO motorsports supercharger kit. Or sell my car as is to the right buyer and save for a rwd CTS-V or something.
@@campos9896 oil consumption, bad quality leather seats, plastic everywhere, pretty vanilla drive quality. I’m sure there is more but that’s what I can remember. Ask exhaust tone is pretty trash now that I’ve heard other cars.
Haven't watch the video yet but I already know what you are gonna say.
I just wanna point out one thing. You bought a clapped out car, both turbo seals leaking (your words on a past video) and that crap. How are you gonna expect a perfect car if you bought one of the worst available?
Now I'm gonna watch the video and later on I'll decide if I need to delete or not this comment
Bro your so correct
Amen brother
One slightly and I mean SLIGHTLY leaking turbo seal isn’t going to make this car go from great to incredibly boring. That is the only slight mechanical fault with the car. The car still made normal boost levels and everything
@Johnny Fresh crazy how can people can be this fuckin brain dead lol
Amen brotha
What you’re trying to convey is that the GTR it’s just too safe and doesn’t have the exhilarating feel regardless of how fast you’re going or how hard you’re driving it

So you didn’t like it pretty much from the start, found out it’s crazy expensive to make big power cause you never did any research on the car, then complain about a clapped out 7 year old car’s build quality. Cool
You’re like a walking encyclopedia at car meets with all the knowledge you have of so many cars, I wonder why you didn’t use that same skill to research a car you were interested in buying?
🤣, very true.
I was looking at a GTR, test drove it and didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. Decided on getting a 2018 bmw m4 comp with only 10k miles, fully packaged out too
bmw ftw

exactly. not to mention the gtr is a track car, not a straight line speed car.
One of the must STRAIGHT honest video talking about this car, no BS. The fan boys keep making the price on this car high and both worth a dollar for no reason honestly. Thank you sir!
Comments from people who don’t own a GTR saying a guy who owns a GTR had a wrong opinion about the GTR.

I say you get a viper as a replacement it would be sick for the channel
@@pablojohnc agreed
Oh yeah. This needs to happen!
I mean pretty much everyone who has owned at 17'+ plate gtr has said it's much better than the previous gen. I never really get why people complain about older model cars when there are newer/better versions out already. Let's not forget the gtr came out in like 2008, and up until 2015 had a few changed here and there but the model you have is basically based on the 08' model.
It’s all good I got the same boring feeling you did about the gtr when I bought mine......... in need for speed
You need all those driver assists things tho, remember you crashed the first corvette just from accelerating?
That’s crazy? I didn’t know I crashed accelerating? I thought I crashed on a half complete highway in the rain on a highway known to make cars hydroplane? But I guess you were there and remember better than me. Fucking idiot lmfao
@@CarsAcrossTexas ***that chuckle you do in between everything you say***
Not gonna lie, I was waiting for you to post a video like this. I've owned one and traded it in towards my 2020 GT500 which in everyway blew the doors off my GTR.
GTR is my dream car but I understand your pain do what make you feel better not what people want
You say it sounds terrible. Well that is all up to interpretation, people like different sounds. Don’t get me wrong the sound of a cammed out v8 is amazing and nothing beats it. But I have heard a bunch of really amazing sounding GTRs. I feel you need to drive a newer updated one. Maybe one who the owner has taken pride in ownership and actually cared for the car, not a clapped out pile that you bought. Love the videos man, and everybody has their opinion on things. But I personally do feel that you need to experience one that is owned by a GT-R enthusiast.
I’ve ridden in several different 1000+ horsepower GTRs. They’re still the most boring 4 digit horsepower cars I’ve felt.
He even said he knows that the gtr can go fast but for the money it's not worth it. Have u seen the insurence on the GTR? It's ridiculous
@@CarsAcrossTexas
Then why did you buy it 🤣
@@WWBLGCY
I can tell you've never owned one. I pay 110 a month.
@@CarsAcrossTexas Well considering a GTR was made for power and to handle well on a road course I think it does it's job. You say that is boring but the damn thing does not feel like it wants to kill me nor a crowd like a mustang or Vette does. You want to talk about boring how about the fact that a Mustang and Vette are so common that even a GT500 from a distant looks like just a mustang. And those cars mostly focus on power but not the handling aspect. Even in the Old Top Gear review when the GT500 first came back they paired it up against a Roush and the Roush with less power was faster on their track because Roush worked on the handling more! Plus your GTR is so dirty looking on the outside. I will admit they needed to upgrade the transmissions on all you talked about. They have hardly done anything to make the transmission better in those ways and only dealt with the issues of it breaking the like transfer case in the CBA models. But considering this car can outperform super cars on a road course it is a fantastic car that is not boring. But if you just want to go fast in a straight line then there is your boring aspect! Yes parts can cost to mod this car but it not at the super car price tag, but not at the American muscle car price to mod either. It is in between where it should be.
Couldn’t be more accurate. Had mine for less than a year and ended up getting a 6 speed 17’ ZL1 and couldn’t be happier
That’s you man, but in my pure opinion I’m sorry but that was a fkn downgrade.
All cars get expensive over time but it’s the love that makes it worth doing. This is kinda your job too so it makes sense to drive something you love.
My Volvo has more money in parts than the cars worth, but I love it so I’ll continue dumping money into it.
Why would u spend money on a car if you don’t like it?
He said it was hyped up by lots of people so he got one thinking it was cool and he didn’t like it
Good run! That was my S3 in the clip at 6:42! If anyone wants any info on the car, follow my IG S3_Ken!
American muscle gives the full experience 💪🏼 also the gtr would be enjoyable if it was over 1,000whp and hooking up on the street taking money 😂😂 but that’s a tough road to commit to especially when you’re over the car so soon and I heard it’s a bit more expensive and exclusive to mod
I guess you said it all haha it’s not worth the money for where it’s going to sit at for a while
In my humble opinion, you did not spend time and money on it and you were hoping it would look fly & fly. Watch the fast tx2k gtr's and how beautiful they look.
I’m not spending the money on the GTR to make it fast when I don’t even like it lol

@@cobee7719 bro he clearly lost to a stock c7 Z06 lol
I agree 100% with you. Having driven lots of different cars on track (one with turns and stuff), the GTR was by far the most boring car on a road course. I can see going fast straight being fun, but I prefer g forces in turns while working around other cars on the track. Going fast straight doesn't do anything for me anymore. So yea, just my 2 cents.
Tbh the previous owner just fucked it up you know it too 😭
100% agree and respect your opinion but I feel like as far as the build quality this previous owner just straight up didn’t take care of his car at all
Good for you buddy. I appreciate the honesty. Thanks for giving your honest opinion wether or not the fanboys like it
I had a GT-R poster on my wall for 6 years. Test drove one and absolutely hated how boring it was. Ended up buying a C7 Z07 manual. I’ve had it for 2 years of daily driving and I adore it. Also smoked a GT-R on the highway yesterday while I had the targa top in the trunk haha! By the way, I felt the same way about the C8 too. Boring, gutless little thing and I spent 3 hours with one
Sorry you had to settle. Gtr is superior to the vette in every way
@@StanMarshimportskillUSjunk Stan, your dad has no tegridy. Z07 has better track times, better braking numbers, better grip numbers on the skid pad and is faster as discussed in the earlier comment lol. GT-R not very fast after the launch.

You bought it to fit in, gotta have the passion for the vehicle. All cars have their flaws

@@CarsAcrossTexas get a garage or a place where you can work on it. The last owner probably dogged the crap out of it maybe thats why it doesn't perform like it should. Well anyways thats just my views on the whole GTR they are some great cars if you put the time and money into one.

I tried telling you before your purchase. You have Muscle car written all over you. Glad you had that revelation!
This is why I'm into muscle, you can get just about anything you want for cheap and have it reliably. There's just so much you can do to a vette for cheap compared to tuners.
If you just want to compare it to just tuners then you are wrong as most honda parts are way cheaper than parts for a vette!
@@TheHoff4K yeah but they can't really put power to the ground, or get the reliability of an LS. Hondas are great but personally I'd take a vette or a 90's camaro over a honda any day.
@@ripinpieces8387 what are you saying is unreliable? I know Honda’s that run a very long time. And there are GTRs still going strong. If you abuse any car it will be unreliable. And newer GTRs have fixed issues that made things unreliable.

Just wondering why you didn't know this before hand?
You said you drove them before, why with your knowledge you still bought one and a riced out one at that.

I don't blame you Drew, you're just a Corvette kind of guy. Your always happy when you're behind the wheel of one because you enjoy what the car can do. 😎👍
cars are all about how they drive. i still haven't driven a gt-r, but found myself hyping it based on its reputation. you don't know what you like with cars till you try them
like the vid but yeah bro I seen fbo a10’s giving you a run for your money I was out there too and those 10 speeds weren’t playing , know your local there’s one in SA for 26k it’s a clean title but was in a accident since it’s gonna be taken to Mexico I don’t think a branded title would affect performance , it looks good it got rebuilt right it’s at novak in SA, fbo whipple ? 👀
When you buy a GTR you don’t pay for build quality or speed (though they are relatively quick), you pay for a name. That’s literally it. It’s like going to Walmart and buying the name brand stuff because it’s “better” than the Great Value (Walmart brand) stuff. When in reality it’s not, you’re simply paying for a name. Love the R35, but would never own one.
I can say I agree with you in some ways. I love the gtr and still want one but I have ridden in a 700hp gtr built by jotech and I’ve also driven a stock c7 zo6. After I drove the zo6 I can say I would take that over a gtr in the long run. Both great cars in my opinion but for the money, z06 is the way to go
I want you to get a CTS-V but I understand you already have that insane Corvette. Also I kinda don’t want you to buy one because I’m considering one and don’t need the price to sky rocket due to more hype lol. CTS-V’s are one of my favorite and very slept on I feel like. No popular UA-camrs have one as far as I know.
yup but anyway, be careful out there if you see any white new camaro’s! in fact it’s a zL1 and it’s a sheriff’s patrol vehicle and there are a few out there. 😜😂🙀😳
I’ve got a fbo Mustang (pfp) and even though it almost never breaks traction YET, it still puts a smile on my face every day (yes it’s my daily)
Drew Im from Canada and watch every video you have put out...... As one person already commented. You never did look happy with the Gtr. Get what you really want if you can afford it cuz you live life once and it goes fast..... Love the content and the events you go to.... Keep up the good work
I’d sell it too if I was losing to way less expensive cars 😭 but I really liked the Gtr.
Yeah they're two different cars man the ZO6 is more Hands-On driver-focused due to the manual transmission and the GTR is more of a gimme power and I'll show you how I can handle it in all wheel drive
My c7 z06 steering wheel wobbles too. Suspensions and transmission broke at almost brand new. That’s why I went back to German cars.
Hmmm.... you got me thinking. I haven’t driven one myself yet though.
I worked for Nissan and once had an internal interview with the Director of future product who told me, and I quote, "I don't like cars".
I’m debating between a Supra and a GTR for my next car. After I build my wrx, it’ll be a hard decision. To me, riding in a stock GTR was the fastest car I’ve been in and I thought it felt like a rocket ship.
What year was that gtr bro
@@champagnedawgg_ it was a 2017. Absolutely beautiful
Had an opportunity to drive one on COTA and it was a great car but I couldnt see owning one as a daily driver
Dual clutch is horrible in any car. Not really sure why you would expect a transmission to operate shifting in the way that a manual would. They are designed to be a hybrid, not efficient. Over engineered and worthless concept.
OP in a few words: Gtr not cheap, my muscle car cheap, I can get mustang cheaper, GTR not fun, mustang fun and very good catching walls. That’s fun.
Not about “cheap”, but more about smiles per $ spent. The GTR is a POS. Can’t catch me buying a built trans for $20k just for it to still be a clunky shit box
If the issue is the clunky transmission and how loud the mechanical noises are then try out a 17+. It’ll impress you.
You definitely should have went with a 2017+ and I also have boosted vette (1000+) and it will make the GTR feel slow. And not to be a dick but I saw your GTR in person and it was not in great shape. In my 17 I have no idea what you’re taking about with the trans noise.
At least you gave it a shot.
I can’t justify $90k for anything Japanese. I’d rather put that $90k to a Gen 5 viper
@@CarsAcrossTexas understandable but like the GTR it’s SO expensive to make them competitive. The GTR (FBO & 🌽)is a fun daily and if I really care about winning a race I have the Vette. But if you get a Viper you will finally have your real super car and at your age that’s super impressive sir!

I find it hard to believe that any person that was ever interested in a GTR, and got one would be this unhappy with it. Pure click bait.
Funny how most races where the GTR loses are from a roll. Show me one from a dig... And it's not a straight line, drag car.
I have to agree. Aside from the price of upgrades, the cheap materials, or even the transmission. The biggest negative to the R35 is that it's boring plain vanilla styling. Honestly I think you'd be more inclined to throw that kind of money for upgrades at an R32 or R33. Those had soul, and distinctive styling. Nissan made a major error with development of the R35, and honestly as much as go fast parts make a rowdy boy car it's not the only thing; there's gotta be style and soul to it also. That's why Hellcats, Corvettes, and Camaros have made for such a large amount of the mid level racers. They all have style and soul to them. Manufacturers listen up! If you're going to make a factory race build pay attention to styling too don't make Nissan's mistake.
I’m glad for the first time somebody tells the truth about that car thanks

Gtr fan boy here, only because I own one lol. If you plan on modding the car past fbo/e85 the price jump from cba to dba isn’t worth it. Get a cba and mod the heck out of it and see why it wins events. Another point is you don’t need an awd dyno. Just remove the front driveshaft to dyno. If your goal is to just roll race you can make 800hp/650tq on a stock motor/trans.

Not gonna lie the r35 gtr just looks like a rebranded 350z but any Nissan cars are great
Great video. I have never been in a GTR and have wondered what it was like. But to be honest, I'm very biased. It has to be a three-pedal manual transmission for me. You can put me the latest/greatest hyper car and it would be still be disappointing because of the transmission. But I get it, companies have to turn a profit.
Bro, you got a 2014 fbo GTR, its slow as hell and deserves to get gapped considering that the platform is going on to 12 years. Secondly, you can keep on building that vette and it will never be able to beat a fully built GTR no matter what you throw at it. Lastly, your 2014 is 7 years old, yes 7, I’d expected a clapped out 7 year old gtr to have the grill bubbling up like that, as for the panel gaps, I’m sure the wrap guys removed the panel and didn’t reinstall it properly. In conclusion, you're comparing 2 totally different cars with different purposes, an FBO GTR isn't a going to gap anything on the street. No hate, but you had no clue what you bought and just bought it to say you had one.
So you’re saying a GTR should get gapped my NA mustangs and camaros, all while being a less exciting, more expensive to maintain car? The problem isn’t that I bought and old one. A car being 7 years old shouldn’t make it a slow POS. I had a 2010 C6 Z06 way back in the day and bone stock that was a more exciting car to drive that kept up with the same damn cars walking the GTR in the video. My C7 when stock might’ve made 550whp and was still a more exciting drive. The previous owner had the dyno graphs from the car and video to match saying this car was 650hp. If I wanted to I could’ve made this car 1200hp. Guess what? It’d still be the most boring 1200hp on the planet. I’d rather save my money from modding a POS import and get a Viper lmao. And that’s crazy too, my 10 year old C6 when I had it didn’t have any sort of bubbling grille or misaligned panels? Hm. I thought cars that were old we’re going to have problems like that???
@@CarsAcrossTexas It’s an old platform. FBO unfortunately isn’t fast anymore. Your car had no reason to get gapped by any of those cars you listed if they were truly stock or lightly modded, I have had plenty of runs with the cars you’ve ran, and never got gapped the way you did on fbo. Maybe you did buy a clapped out GTR, maybe your tune was bad, so many factors. You mentioned in your video that if you were to build you’d go to a shep 1k or 1.5k , then said that would be a good upgrade for a 1k whp that just shows you were clueless about the platform.
No disrespect btw I’ve been watching your YT for a while now and enjoy the content. I just feel like you jumped into something that you without any research.
@@pfizzle1 I’ve been looking into getting a GTR for at least a year now. I almost bought one over the C7 a year ago. I’ve done my fair share of research.

Awesome video. I'm on the fence between a 2018 or newer Porche 718 GTS or a 2014 -2016 GTR. I can't justify 80k for a GTR. My Audi s3 has a nicer interior and I feel like the Porche will be more fun to drive. Thanks for the honesty 💪
how the fuck do you get walked by a n/a gen3 coyote in a fbo gtr. lmfao. its so obvious that car had problems.
It appears the prior owners messed up the car.
Yeah the other 8 owners lol
You a muscle fan why even bother get a gtr and stop talking down on gtrs I don’t see corvettes beating the fastest lambo in the world
its sad when someone really likes something and they buy a not so good one or a "bad" one and have a bad experience one that hasnt been beatin on i bet you would see it different.. this happens alot. its just like getting food from somewhere that you know is good, but maybe that store or cook is bad and then you have a bad experience. sorry this issue happened to you. and yes alot of noobs do overhype the car, but real car people know what they have and know what it is. stay safe!
Can I ask why did you buy it first?? What caught your eye attention??
At the end of the day. If the car doesn't excite you move on the one that does.
I agree. Local buddy to me has a 2k+hp gtr and goes to 2k every year. It’s fast as hell but still just meh. It’s boring even for it being ungodly fast. Not to mention mods cost. Insane. I’ll gladly still to a 6th gen zl1 1le, c6 zr1 or c7z for that price range
Gtr is better than any of that 🗑
Where did you get those wheels?? I somehow may know where lmao
You do have a solid point
1. It does take a lot of money to put into the car to make it fast
2.definitely is overpriced but just because gtr have been icons but for the stock speed is definitely overpriced
In my perspective I love Jdm cars and I do think they are over hyped a lil but I respect on what you say on the gtr cause it’s everyone’s opinion and they’re always gonna have different taste which is understandable
I THINK THE NEXT CAR YOU SHOULD GET IS A VIPER YOU ALWAYS SAY THAT YOU LOVE ❤️ IT BROTHER! ! BUY A CAR THAT HAS A SOUL IN IT! ROB OTTA LAS VEGAS 🙋🏻♂️🚗
when you were building up the hype of you getting this car, i was extremely happy for you because you seemed excited. But truth be told, i was thinking he could have gotten something waaaaaaaayyy better. The GTR to me is an overhyped car that looks like a 350z in the front, skyline in the back made in the cheapest way. like you said, this car lacks soul and i think the reason is because of the cheap mashup and playing on a "nostalgia" (which they missed the mark) for the R34.
I never own one or driven a gtr but what ive seen and researched the car has allot of potential to make power its a good budget super car. For the most part no one is using it for there day by day things i know a few people that has one they use it for weekends every car has there pro and cons its all depends what you wanna do with it I respect your opinion sounds like V8 cars is for you not jdm
I mean....you can apply that mustang logic to the Vette too lol. I did go from my r35 to a C7Z as well. C7 has its flaws too lol
Seeing the amount of GTRs at the track during 2k definitely confirmed that IMO, I’d be okay never seeing one ever again lol
I’m always into fast American muscle cars don’t get me wrong a lotta imports are fast but youll never see me in one. Too ricey for me and the tuner exhaust is just eh.
The cars you lost to in races get gapped by other gtrs. Other gtrs would pull bus lenghts on your trash car
Look I’m not a huge gtr person but I think you just didn’t buy the right one like look at stradmans it is absolutely gorgeous and doesn’t look cheap of plastic at all I understand where your comming from and I agree with parts of what you say like it’s boring and gets clapped by most cars
At the end of the day, it’s still a Nissan. I bought a 2009 370z and have regretted it since. Love the look of the cars, love how Z’s look, love how the GT-R’s look, but they’re still just Nissans. Kinda sucks that such nice looking cars are built kinda cheap but I guess if they were built like super cars, they would be worth as much as super cars and not have the hype they have for being ‘affordable super cars’.
Lotta salty bois in this comment thread about you getting rid of the GTR. Guarantee you none of em have ever driven one. I'm glad its gone. I think JDM cars are overrated anyway. Lexus is like the only one with any soul.

Shit man if I lost to n/a Mustangs and Camaro’s I’d be disappointed too 😅
I love GTR’s but for that kinda money I’d rather go for a 13-14 GT500, C7Z06, C6Z06, C6ZR1, 03-04 Cobra, Shelby GT350, Hellcat, or a ZL1. Or just get a 10r80 Gen 3 Mustang and build that thing into a monster 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Honestly I agree with you, mustang or c6 z06 or any sort of american muscle over that GTR all day. Not only because I like american muscle better, but because they can be faster with way less money spent, and they sound better, look better, just all of the above. American muscle is the only way i'll go unless it's a random daily driver car.
You talk about a 10r80 mustang.....I did exactly that. I have a grand total of $40k into my '18 gt auto including the cost of the car with boost. absolutely DESTROY every single gtr i come across AND I don't sound like a God dam out of tune shitty trumpet. You made the best decision to get rid of that over priced, extremely over hyped trumpet. Yea, gtr fan boys going to hate, but ignore them. A good 95% of them can't afford it, get all their info from other biased and blinded fan boys and are ignorant to everything else that is not a gtr. You made the right choice.
