No, GREG should buy a Hakosuka. Think about who we're talking about here.

Thats awesome!!! I wonder too about the longevity of the transmission?? From what I understand the first GTR's had transmission issues, I don't think nearly doubling the HP would help that out!! :)

Anyone else noticed they converted to 5 lug too?

The Switzer is pretty fast too, but as far as I know, the AMS alpha12 is the current fastest R35 GTR. And about the trans, its been built by sheptrans. This was posted by Eric from AMS on another forum.
"AMS ALPHA 12 Preliminary Testing....1100whp breached
Over the past few weeks we have been doing some ALPHA 12 testing on Tim Sanders GT-R at his request. The man REALLY likes power lol.
The major changes from the 10 to the 12 are the engine and the turbo kit itself. Tim's car is now fitted with an AMS ALPHA 4.0 big bore engine and ALPHA 12 Turbo kit. The combination has proved to be pretty potent only spooling 150 rpm later than the ALPHA 10 package. The power....well it's surprising even us. This is just preliminary testing on MS109E unleaded race gas. We also kept the RPM's a little lower than we normally do to see how the kit is responding.
The result was an astonishing 1118WHP and 884 ft/lbs of Torque!
The scary thing is this kit is far from being maxed out. We have some more tuning and some more tricks up our sleeve but I think this is quite possibly the baddest power package for the GT-R YET!"

My parents live in the NW suburbs. AMS built my engine a few years ago. I'm finally finishing some intake/exhaust stuff and will be having AMS retune on an EMS this summer. I'm looking forward to visiting their shop again.
