Nope, just know the difference of a sublime gear change you can't feel and distribution of power cleanly and efficiently to the drive train.. not some granny shifting , museum ready piece of history crashing away

Awww, diddums. Keep on praticising and one day you won't grind gears and kangaroo-hop down the street :D

Any R owners tried dragging with an R35 before?

Hahaha good find.

The Golf Rs probably did better than the Subies because their owners bought the Sprint booster in the last GB. :cookie:

Not that they have any impact on "performance", or so we're repeatedly told ;)

Damn, those R35 GTR's are quick!!
