This Nissan R35 GT-R has been tuned by AMS Performance and turned into a serious drag racer.
Power? How about 1,309 bhp (976 kW / 1327 PS) 995 lb-ft (1347 Nm) of torque. Torque elasticity? No problem. The AMS Alpha 12 goes from 60 to 130 mph (96.5 km/h to 209 km/h) in 3.46 seconds. The car also does the quarter-mile in just 9.0 seconds which is...hold on a sec...402 meters. By then the car is going 166 mph (267 km/h). It's a treat too to see all four wheels burning rubber and AMS's test driver reports that the tires were spinning up to fourth gear and full-traction was only reached in fifth. Video

@ Mickyyyy AMS built the trans. I believe with this and other bits found on
their website. http://www.amsperformance.com/cart/d...-lbs_plus.html They have built a lot of quick cars. http://www.amsperformance.com/

Not much out there for under $180K that can touch these things! If you have seen August edition of Motor Mag they have a R35 vs Vett callaway S/C vs SLS gullwing and the R35 murders them both in everyway
