yes technically any car that is lightened will be faster, but the reason i said technically is because were not talking about Bmw's or any other car. were talking about the GTR as listed in this thread title.
There is no “technically” about it, it is a proven fact, no technicality exists if it is has been done. The make has nothing to do with a proven fact that a lighter car at the same power output will go faster around the same track. Because several manufacturers have made light weight version and even both RWD and AWD versions of their cars that went around the very same track. SO no technically about it.
So again making the GTR RWD and lighter
probably the simplest way would be to remove one of the cars two driveshaft and put a plug in the cars rear mounted transmission. Would this make the car faster? probably not the cars ATTESSA AWD sytem would probably go nuts trying to figure out what happened to the tourque in the front wheels.
You are making it more complex than it really needs to be. For years people and companies have produced or modified AWD cars into RWD cars. Nissan could make either variant regardless of the GT
R designation. The next portion of your reply is idiotic rambling, companies like Porsche, BMW, and Jaguar have produced both variations of a single model for years, in fact the Porsche 911 used as a benchmark in this story (notice the relevancy) was made in both AWD and RWD variations with out much fan fare or complication. They all have complicated torque sensing and traction control systems, and somehow they managed to make cars in both drive modes.
When if you really wanted to make the car faster around the corners all you could of done was turn up the boost and add some better tires. or just wait for the 530hp version or the V-spec
Or just simply make it lighter, which by the way the company is doing in 2010, making a lighter variation. Wonder why? Oh that’s right BECAUSE IT IS FASTER AROUND THE TRACK! They must be a bunch of dumbasses. I am sure it will be nothing more than a bunch of carbon fiber body panels, higher power output, and $50,000 added price increase to justify its limited production.
