  • AMS Alpha 12 R35 GT-R: 1/4 mile World Record 9.05 at 166.66mph

    The Alpha 12 performance package is now fact and it boosts the mighty Nissan GT-R to whopping 1327PS (976 kW) and 1347Nm (995 lb-ft).

    The previous record with Alpha 10 was 9.33 seconds at 153mph, a now there is a new one – 9.05 at 166.66mph (267 km/h) for the Alpha 12.

    Because of the brutal power, the tuned Nissan managed to get full traction only in 5th gear, which means four-wheel spin to 4th. Nice! Still, the car looks like it is capable to go on public roads.

    So, the AMS Performance smashed their own record with the new monster drag racer. Check out the video below, where you will see a number of starts as well as dyno test of the Alpha 12.

  • Nissan GT-R Alpha 10 by AMS Performance – 1/4 mile in 9.33s – 153mph

    AMS Performance installed its Alpha 10 performance package on a Nissan GT-R and the results are amazing.  They have broken their own ¼ record with the monster vechicle. Almost everything in and outside the engine is upgraded, but this is the price for 1 100hp. Finally, they routed all that power through an Alpha 10 transmission.

    Nissan GT-R Alpha 10 did ¼ mile in 9.33 seconds at 153mph. This is 0.56 seconds better than the run from March of this year in GT-R SR850 at the TX2K10 Supra & GTR Nationals.

    Just enjoy the monster in the videos and the images. (more…)
