And whilst the Clio gets...

[maggi200]

...200 horses, Nismo will be pushing that to 230 ish apparently.

So maybe a big jump during the midlife crises for the 200?

I think that is ugly as hell! Be surprised if anyone will buy it!

Did anything ever come of the 'juke-R' with gtr engine?

 

[JE_GT]

I like it, different and quirky

Yes, now produced to order at a considerable 6 Figure sum...and it doesn't start with 1, 2 or 3...
Built with the 2012 GTR Running Gear or 2013 by order.

The usual middle eastern lot have been ordering them and one recently got one spec'd in the UK with 1100bhp.

Oh my.. Cool!

I know there's a GTR called the hulk with nearly 1300... Can't remember tuning company tho

Not a fan of these types of cars... :?

 

[maggi200]

I was thinking more about the shared or similar components and the increase In power that the Nissan is likely to get

Will it not just be the way it's mapped?

 

[maggi200]

Well of course, but anyone can just remap a car. The Clio will no doubt be able to take a remap for a boost in power, but not whilst officially maintaining the warranty: my point was they're clearly happy to boost that engine to that power

 

[133_Ads]

I meant could it be the way it's mapped? or could a map possibly push this further away from the Clio?

 

[Alex_225]

It could have 2,300bhp for five quid and I still wouldn't want one!! lol

 

[sam666]

i quite like the nismo one :lol:

 

[Martin_172]

who would ever have thought nissan would make there own version of the clio RS except nissans version is the more powerful one and RS wont offer a manual, and nissan will do you a 4wd one! lol

I wonder which of them will be better to drive?

I'd buy the nismo juke, rather win the lottery and order a juke r from them though lol.
