They are very definitely better balanced, which contributes to its ability to handle much more power. But they typically are made with iron blocks for some reason.

100 pounds heavier. Considering the Rb26DETT weights a tad over 100 pounds more, its stronger because of the material. This GT-R is nothing special, front midship and AWD

GT-Rs have traditionally been pretty heavy from what I've heard.
I like the look of the car with the bra on but I don't like the prototype's front. I hope they stick a somewhat more traditional GT-R look, if they do that car will look sick!
Has it been confirmed that its a V8? I can't listen to the video since I'm at work but I thought it said they were using 6 cylinder engine...
