Infamous1 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 They build a supercar, and then they don't want to support it if you decide to actually use it for what it is made for.. This Nissan is no supercar.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05GT Guru Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I was gonna say, i know there has to be alot of people with far more than 20 launchs on there stick LGT, like i said i have about 40 on my 5eat and it still shifts great. EVeryone is liek he did 20 launches i n2 weeks like thats alot. Unless he did 20 launches in a row 20 launches is 20 launches, whether its 2 weeks or 2 years.

Habitual Line Stepper Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Your right it was RWD, a RWD car that had drag radials and was launched 4-5k each time. Does the GTR launch at 5k? And the GTR opwners take the VDC or traction control off to launch just like you would with a RWD car. As for my legacy it is a 5EAT and i have launched it alot more times than 20 lol. My car also hads 50k miles on it and i dont even know how many times the previous owner launched it but i have probably launched it 30-40 times at 3000-3200rpms. How does your 5eat still function?

LegGTLT Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I still don't get it... include a feature and the ability to disengage something to USE that feature. Then, don't warranty the trans when you disengage that something to USE a feature THEY told you about. Did I get that right? Please PM joeleodee For All Site Questions.

Habitual Line Stepper Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 You have to reach enlightenment in order to be okay with a $20K transmission bill Word, the GTR has reached epic fail status at this point. GL to the current owners. Maybe this means we can get used GTR's fer cheap? "I for one do not doubt you, dude.

05GT Guru Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Yeah, the guys who have them right now probably paid close to 120k. For habitual line stepper the tranny works great, no slipping shits smooth and fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habitual Line Stepper Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 no slipping shits smooth and fast. You made me . Good to hear that the 5eat can be sturdy.

05GT Guru Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Yes, there is no slipping as it shits smooth:lol:. I doubt the tranny is sturdy, i think so far i have just been lucky. I mean i hear on here about how guys have 5eats blow after like 5 launches at stage 2. Im sure it will break within the next 20-30kmiles since im not planning on stopping the launches. But thats what 100kmile extended warrentys are for. Thank god its not a nissan warrenty:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god its not a nissan warrenty:) Good luck with that warranty stuff, had a slight flare in rpms when shifting, took it to the dealer, kept it real with them, told them about some mods. They pretty much said we washed the car and clean the carpets, but your warranty is void, we wont touch the car. "I for one do not doubt you, dude.

05GT Guru Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 That sucks, when it blows i will just put oem parts on and reflash it to stock. The GM dealership here popped my hood when a valve spring broke and saw, headers, exhaust, intake, intake manifold and called me and said whats up with all these mods. I just said the car was like that when i bought it and all the work was covered lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguin Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I don't think the GT-R sucks, in fact I would still love to own one. Then again I also don't think it is the king of cars either, and my interest in drag racing is non existent. I am more interested in lot's of useful power while already moving, and excellent handling and grip. The GT-R accomplishes this nicely. Then again it would chap my ass not to be able to use a feature on the car too many times without voiding the warranty, and a delicate transmission is not acceptable at all. Nor is the retarded dealer mark up acceptable. Start adding $ to the car and I could find something even nicer and more capable for that amount of money.

Knight705 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I hope any potential buyers are informed, especially with the rediculous markup. it is in the contract u sign and also in the warranty manual. that extended durations with VDC off is potential for voiding warranty. VDC is only to be turned off if stuck in mud/snow/loose gravel situations as stated in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
