Who’s ready for an INSANE three-way Nissan GT-R drag race?!
Mat’s pulled together three different GT-Rs which have been tuned to different levels, and he wants to find out just how much performance you get depending on how much you spend upgrading your car.
Of course, Mat’s chosen the most powerful one for himself. It’s had an engine rebuild so you’ll now find a 4.1-litre V6 under the bonnet which produces an astronomic 1,600hp & 1630Nm of torque!! All-in-all, around £100,000 was spent on these upgrades.
Alongside him, we have a GT-R that’s had £35,000 of upgrades added to it. These include adding hybrid turbos and strengthening the gearbox, and as a result, the car now kicks out 1,000hp & 1,150Nm.
Then finally we have the most basic car here. It’s had an ECU remap, along with new intakes & exhausts added to it. Thanks to that, it now puts down 650hp (100hp more than the standard car) along with 840Nm.
So the result may be a foregone conclusion, but will the 1,600hp GT-R prove its worth?! There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

03:50 "3.5 inches that isn't going to please anybody is it?" Mat Watson, 2021 🤦♂️
xD
that’s what she said
It's the thickness that matters.
Whoa Mat a bit sus now😂👀
That was she said 😏😏😏
1600hp is impressive, but 1000hp tuned 6 years ago and 50,000kms is way more impressive
I think the 650 hp one with only intake, exhaust, and tune finishing in the same frame is pretty impressive as well.
@@kchiem not that impressive honestly , more horsepower is good but doesn't provide more grip if the tire can hundle 700ish the 1000 power gtr isn't much more powerful on the drag race thats why you can see it getting worse starts
I highly doubt that car went 6yrs without breaking something due to the power.Just not possible
Ain't making a 1000 bhp when it hardly pulls on 650.and the car looked like it was pulled out of the river
wow, never would have thought 10.3s with street tyres and registered would be considered unimpressive. I've driven a model s p100d and its hard to describe how quick running 10s really is to someone thats never done it
In all the years I've watched Carwow, I've never seen Mat make a facial expression like he did in the 1600 😳
You then need to watch Matt in the electric defender :-)
Watch him in any Bugatti 😂
Watch him in Rimac Nevera ;)
Watch him in the tuned 1200hp lambo :)
Watch him when the tuned ttrs comes on boost😅
Matt,that 1600 is outrageous. I felt the wind inside that beast
The fact that the most powerful car broke proves how big the stress is the powertrain must absorb during full acceleration from 0. No matter what car, this can cause lot of harm
I think the fact that the 1000hp build has lasted so long is pretty impressive
kzhead.info/sun/d7uTmZiDkYNoopHI/bejne.htmlh3
JM Imports have 1500+HP builds that last mate. It's nothing new, they are really good at what they do and build bullet proof engines as long as you're not stupid with them and rag them from cold etc.
@@James-ns6jm ill definitely have to check them out.
Yeah
Handmade engines japanese quality, they are the best
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the 1600hp gtr won, the 1000hp went second and lastly the 650hp.
Congrats the first person to guess based on the number difference good job. Kinda like Yanni whenever Mat says he loses like good observation mate
Too bad you didn’t watch the video and interestingly seen the 650 barely trailed the 1000.
That was great. It's videos like this that remind that Brian owed Dom a 10 second car. Which car in fast and furious was actually a 10 second 1/4 mile lol.
My money is on the Jetta
Omg its so powerful even that turn signal lever behind steering wheel are shaking at 5:21
Lol
No they are just cheap 😂
Auto flashing its high beams so people move over.
@@dutchdrifter8740 good one!!
No. It's such a shitty car, so everything shakes and breaks. Neither 650 hp nor 1000 hp is close to a standard Porsche 911 turbo S. And Porsche can take 100+ launches after each other without anything shaking in pieces.
I would love to see the 1600hp gtr going against 1200 hp Lamborghini huracan
Me too👍👍👍
Yesss
Why not one of same horsepower?
@@justincharles6585 Lamborghini are lightweight.
why not a1600hp Lamborghini huracan?
Keep them coming! Love it
You do races that everyone wants to see! Wow you guys! Much love and respect! Please race my ml63 vs all over amg's 🙏

😂🤣😂🤣 Mat is crazy.
Matt always knowledgeable but in a fun way. He makes car videos fun to watch. I loved this race...I think I would be happy with the 3rd GTR just because it seems more reliable and I don't like funny smells in my car! LOL! On any given day that 3rd GTR would beat most cars on the road anyway.
Love your content 👌
After all these years the GTR still looks fantastic.

Chevrolet Corvette has entered the chat
@@TechDove cheaply designed + rwd + not nearly as much technology
This is a great video! Can you have a drag race between stock mclaren sena and 1600hp gtr?
So the key take away is you don't need a 1650hp GtR because it breaks down in no time. A well built 1000hp one will be ok but that is also a hit or miss. A 650hp with minimal butchering to the car is probably your best bet to have fun. Got it. 😅
I’ve always seen or heard 850 hbp is the sweat spot for these.
You're wrong, this engine can handle 4000 hp
And do not forget that it is a Japanese industry that does not break
Agreed. With stock internal and stock transmission limit the torque at 650 ft lbs. Mine is at 750 wheel HP on 93, and 800+ish on E85 both tune limited to 650 tq.. That seems to be point of reliability. Any more tq you need to build the transmission especially if you brake boost launch it often. Add much over this point internals are also needed.
I think optimal is 800-850hp.
5:33 Love how you can hear Mat screaming nice detail
Yeah haha that was too funny
kzhead.info/sun/d7uTmZiDkYNoopHI/bejne.htmlbe
5:13 LMAO is that him yelling :D
5:15
ofc its funny at 5:15 😂😂😂😂
yes
I’ve always loved watching the gtr launches
tbh for 1600HP they should have rebuild almost the entire car for it to reliably pull multiple times in a row for drag races.
I bet they have, but you keep pushing it, it’ll keep breaking. 🤷🏻♂️
it's already done a full day at santa pod running 1900bhp without breaking, just one of those things with cars running this sort of power, sometimes they work all day, sometimes they break as soon as you arrive
It has been, its got a stroker kit and everything its not jus tuning the ecu to 1600 hp lol
On a prepped track it’ll be a lot safer not a bumpy runway
Mat breaks everything he touches in this video anyway
I liked the professional work done at 5:33 keep em coming!!
I noticed that too, it is hilarious lmao

GTRs and C6 Vettes are what you want if you want upgradables. Both make power really easily and respond really well to mods
Usually only see 1600+ HP at the drag strip so seeing it here is like WOW!

Yeah😂
Chinese one isn't that effective though. He needs to be careful.
@Man like Jerry it seems like you trying are mocking our religion 🤨
@Man like Jerry oy Jerry, shut it mate
i was looking for this comment. i knew i wasn't the only one that noticed that
I honestly didn't expect the difference to be that huge. Obviously the 1600 would win but I didn't think it would be that massive a gap with the cars being as fast as they are in standard trim.
I'm getting a 1000hp 14 GTR tomorrow that has the most solid build I've ever seen. I'm so excited!
We've all watched matt drive super and hyper cars and I have never seen him so scared and concentrated driving that 1600hp GTR
The hell are these bots?
@@andysss_play tell me about it 😅, i'm just ignoring them
He would have had a mare if Red Bull allowed him to drag the F1 car 🤣
@@georgiaking9429 I can hear is voice, well screams and string of excuses, the tyres weren't warm enough, I couldn't get a good launch, that is frightening to drive 😂,
kzhead.info/sun/d7uTmZiDkYNoopHR/bejne.html3
5:30 being able to hear Matt scream over him in the 1600 GTR lol
Editor is a funny man
intake, exhaust and ECU remap can unlock 100HP on the GT-R?
Yeah. A stock GT-R Nismo has 600 HP, it's only an extra 50 HP from factory, in theory.
it can unlock almost that on a golf lol no surprise it can do it on a gtr, i wouldve expected about 200hp
Mat looked excited and horrified at the same time driving the 1600 bhp!
When Ahmed told Mat to hold on he really meant it huh !! That thing is a rocket ,😂
Hamed
Not surprised. It does an 8sec quarter mile. And 1900bhp
Was a rocket

I love your videos keep it up
Can you race a few 1000hp cars against each other? The M5 and the GT-R and another one with 1k? Would be awesome! Love your work!
once again thanks for having us -- for those wondering the smells thats what we call Ethanol ;-)

What happened to the diff?
Thank you for coming on carwow, seeing these cars is absolutely amazing.
Boom
@@BobbyDazzler888 was not the diff was the Ets ie 4wd clutches starting to wear out- those 4wd clutches have done s lot of work over last few years
That noise when all 3 were building boost on launch control was epic. 👌

Drag race idea: -E10 -Super 95 -Super+ does different petrol really influence the performance?

This was one of my favourite ones, because I love tuned cars. See if you can find a tuned Audi S8. I would loooove to see that vs a stock one.
I would like to see a race between a gt86/BRZ, gt86/BRZ, series 1 rx8 gt, and series 2 rx8 r3 if is possible and I really like all the cars you bring to your show, your KZhead channel 🤙
I would go for the least powerful one, just because I wouldn’t like to spend my time dealing with thing breaking !! ( and let’s be honest : at 650 HP the GTR is already a beast )! Great video!
He said the 1000hp GTR has been that way for 6 years and hasn't broken. I'd say that's impressively reliable
@@whatiwant8898 till matt get in there

Would have been nice to see a stock CBA in there which were originally around 480. Just for context. I run a stock 2009, I drive it hard and never had any faults, this is the problem with modded cars, if you drive them to the limit they always break
God bless you 🙏 and your team thank you for sharing your information and I'll take the decision to buy this amazing car's unbelievable LONG LIFE KING STREET GTR!

I think among all the tuned cars, Buzzy's Huracan stands out. It launched perfectly every time and was blummin fast.
Is that one that raced the F1 car?
Buzzys Huracan is a baby tune compared to the cars in the states

@@rvind92g yeah
i love the fact that Mat always pick the quickest car hahaha
The sheer terror in Mat's face has me in tears, cause i felt it 3rd hand
The high A/C temp takes the heat from the engine block itself, so it doesn't overheat. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
You’re right, on Ricky (llf) video when he was drag racing he had the heaters on full wack to let as much hot air in as possible from the engine
I used to do this in my tuned 200SX too. Not that it made anywhere near the power of these cars
Yeah I’ve seen people turn the heater on in summer when they see their cars overheating. I never needed to do that but I guess 75 hp isn’t comparable to 1600 😅
@@revoltec3792 sdi golf??
every turbo car owner do this at some point,esp in summer lol
Matt I really love to see you have a drag race with 1600hp gtr and rimac nevera that would be awesome
Nevera would win! Even a Tesla Plaid wouldn't be far behind.. at this airstrip.
Nevera would smash GTR. Just like this Audi TT 1200HP(dragster) did to this 2500+ HP GTR a few days ago in Albania kzhead.info/sun/rL6Km5GvpZ-ZgIE/bejne.html
@Aryan A Roll race would be worse. Takes too long to spool up those big turbos... the Nevera would be bus-lengths ahead, with instantaneous torque. Turbo-lag is why the 1600hp GTR didn't get the jump on the 1000hp, in roll races.
@@webmaster4745 WRONG! On a prepped track Nevera has run 8.5. The orange GTR has run 8.0 at Santa Pod 👍

5:13 I love how they added his screaming in the flyby 💀
How does it go from 10.3s to 11.3s when they’re in the same frame Matt? Whoop whoop, it’s the continuity police!!
Probably the best time from either of the two races
My stock 13 GT-R on 91 octane (so probably making 530 hp) did the quarter in 11.2. No way a tuned one with 650 hp does it in more time.
@@kchiem Welp its not so accurate anyways, Matt has couple of videos with stock gtrs doing 1/4 mile in 10.8, and the 2021 nismo, in his video i believe he managed 2.89 0-60 on street surface.. so its not so accurate anyways.
@@kchiem the main issue is the runway no prep done to it so any car struggles to launch on it so u can’t get perfect consistent launches
@@tittyboiswag mate they're literally in the same frame which means there's maximum of 0.3s between them. So if it did better time it should be in the first race.
Matt seriously has the guts to jump in anything and go hard someone get this man on top gear
He is on an air runway 😅😅😅, which on an average is about 280 ft wide. Pilots run airplanes on those things, what is there to be said about running a tiny little car in comparison to an airplane? Can probably be done with closed eyes. Driving in a straight line on something that's 80 feet wide... Not impressed as much as I am with people letting Matt run their cars.
