Can anyone verify that? I've read about the GPS tracking you on track or roads on automatically changing setting but I always thought it was crap. Is the black box thing correct?:confused:

No, the only 'warranty' voiding Nissan looks at for the GT-R was in 09 with people messing with the launch control but even then that got blown out of proportion.
What Nissan did was in Japan create a link in with the GPS to remove the speed limiter when you are at a track. Nissan GT-R recognizes tracks via GPS, removes speed limiter — Autoblog

I have heard of some black box thing on the GT-R, what is that for?

Lemers 06-22-2011 05:50 PM
Most new cars have a black box even your Z. That doesn't mean Nissan reviews the data with each service.

that is true, but again it produces the numbers. it cost a lot less thats why its not overall as good.

people always the new mustang 5.0L is a great bang for your buck. it is producing numbers of a BMW m3. but when you drive both you will feel much better driving a M3. but thats why it cost 20k more. is it worth it ? idk.

I think the same comparison can be made for the 370Z and the Cayman S.

370 due to looks and the "fun" factor. Every time I see a GTR (usually flying past me) I wonder what that thing is going to transform into.

Definitely the GT-R then :icon17:

Just looked on yahoo autos. There is a black GTR 28k miles for $40k. Too bad it 1300 miles from me.

Synack 06-22-2011 07:55 PM
I hope our black box (if we have one) won't screw people over. I've been to high speeds in the Z and who knows how fast the guy before has been.

What? I'm confused :confused:

Lemers 06-22-2011 07:58 PM
There is a 2010 GTR on cars.com w/ 1771 miles for $25k. Does that sound kinda fraudulent to you?

b1adesofcha0s 06-22-2011 08:03 PM
Definitely. Maybe it has a blown trans that was never repaired, but that's assuming there is at least a bit of legitimacy with that posting.

Lemers 06-22-2011 08:05 PM
If the car exists I would absolutely take it to the Nissan dealer for a look over.
