    If we were GT-R owners, we really would not want to know!  Smiley

    I was only kidding and certainly do not know. Smiley

    But that's nothing to be ashamed of. Smiley After all, even Nissan didn't know that the transmissions were going to fail en masse, otherwise they wouldn't have released it for sale to the public. Would they? SmileySmiley

    Seriously though, my comment was prompted by a thread on some other forum which someone here posted a link to. Some GT-R owner managed to break a crankshaft, but if I remember correctly, its engine had been tuned, so Nissan cannot be blamed for that.

    "Although Nissan won't comment, we know there is some litigation being pursued by GT-R owners regarding this."

    LOL! I guess so!!Smiley


    Re: Nissan GT-R Transaxle Woes, Long live the 997TT!!!

    That's too bad for GTR owners. competition is always good.

    Re: Nissan GT-R Transaxle Woes, Long live the 997TT!!!

    Makes you wonder how much money they are "losing" by pricing the car so competitively. IOW, if the car were a significant profit maker wouldn;t they be more supportive of buyers?
