HI GT Cole,
Hmm..you owned a GT2RS and sold it again...and replaced it with a 4.0..- well both cars are great..but the hell why didnt you keep them both??
Arent you missing the turbo power form the GT2RS?

well - yes and no. I know the GT2RS quite well too - its power delivery is very linear..improved from the normal GT2...so..that argument doesnt really count (at least not for me)..
But..anyhow..the 4.0 is also great..on average I would say it looks better - -sounds better.. - but performance wise..nothing can beat a turbo..

yes because the powerband on the turbo is really comparable to the 4.0 isnt it

GT3RS and GT2RS are two completely difference beasts. The GT3 platform was designed with tracking in mind whereas the GT2 is a combination of tracking and all out performance and the "turbo" powerband is not quite as "predictable" or linear as a naturally aspirated engine no matter how you look at it.

btw: we all know that the GT3 also only really pulls above 5000rpm..so its not really "linear" either..
I heard the 4.0 is better in this respect..but I have never driven it..
