It will - unlike a GTR, a RWD car will have tire spin to alleviate stress on the drivetrain. Limited traction can be a good thing for reliability.
I haven't been in a GTR, but I've sidestepped the clutch on one of the old 3000GTs just under readline and it was almost painful to think of how that driveline dealt with 300 hp suddenly transferring to four basically immobile tires. The car gave a big chirp, a big *whack*, and got to 20 mph faster than anything I've been in. It wasn't really that fast after that.
Speed shifting should be okay too, so long as you aren't really jamming the transmission into the next gear. I wouldn't expect 200K out of it doing a lot of drag racing though...
