At $250,000+ more than the ACR-X I am curious how these 2 cars would compare.

To me they lose some of what makes he GTR sp ecial, an amazing all wheel drive system. I wonder how the 6 holds up to heat soaking.
This car is apparently a bargain, compared to the bento edition of GTR

This made me do some more research.
The info/pics I see here: http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/GT3/
The pictures and specs look more serious than the article in the original post lead on.

It would be a good match up. The ACR-X has a lot more power but the GTR looks to be a bit lighter. I am sure Nissan will get it to the ring soon.

SRT should take the current GTS-R, put the street engine in it with headers and borla like the ACR-X, and then sell 50 of them.

No no no, they need to sell more, so someday I have a better chance at getting one. :wink:
I can't answer that having no experience with either. However the ACR-X has 120 hp on the CC, weight was the same, ACR-X was Gen IV and CC Gen III. Not to take away from the ACR-X, as it was an ACR, minus weight, plus cage and engine/pcm revisions for the added HP, the CC was a "more of" (if thats possible) a legit race car.
The CC has different body work all together, wider, 1" wider 3 piece BBS wheels. The cage I believe is much more integrated into the car (I believe its stitch welded to the chassis in many points from what I recall seeing at Archer Racing) and of course the x brace. All of the bushings in the car are spherical, no rubber bushings. The CC has a MoTeC system in it. Again the CC is much more of a specialty race car.
The ACR-X is very badass, but part of the reason the cost on it was kept down (to even cheaper than the CC) was because it was more of an "off the shelf" car.
My gut tells me the only thing the CC gives up to the ACR-X is HP.

ACR-X is about 3200 pounds, 200 more than the Comp Coupe.
Here are the results of both cars on track together....

My experience watching them both on track suggests that the results posted from TMS are representative....not an exception. ACR-X s tend to be in front. Depends on who's drivin' 'em of course but statistics give the nod to the ACR-X methinks.
I recall the CC being 3k but I thought there was a weight penalty after the first year and they had to weigh over 3100 while the ACR-X is advertised at 3190. Regardless the CC should be lighter, but at this point I am unsure by how much, if any at all.
As far as the ACR-X in front as some are saying, that power the X packs is wicked.

I posed this question when the ACR-X came out, a person who owns both the Comp Coupe and an ACR-X said the ACR-X was about 2 seconds faster on the same track on the same day. He attributed the better lap times to more HP and better tires.
Curiosity has me wonder what the ACR-X wheels/tires on the CC would do in that scenario and vice versa.
Some GT-U Comp Coupes will be running 700+rwhp/7500 RPM engines. There was one CC at TMS that was running one. It was amazing how fast that car pulled in the straights. As soon as the CC guys get comfortable with the added HP and using it in the turns as well as the straights, I believe the lap times differences will change
IMO and after watching them in person, I don't think the X can compete with a 700 whp, sequential trans. Comp Coupe.....
Now if the X wasn't a "spec racer" and it could be modified......

Wow 700+ RWHP is some serious power and a sequential also, that is mega fast.
