I’m not even going to bother setting this video up. All you have to do is press play and be prepared to be amazed, as tuning shop AMS Performance shows off their latest insane creation. The Alpha 12 Nissan GT-R is tuned to a tarmac shredding 1,318 horsepower running on a mere 35 PSI of boost.

History has been made! On Tuesday July 26th our AMS ALPHA 12 GT-R went back to the track with a little more favorable weather conditions. The result was the World’s First 8 Second R35 GT-R!
Even with a 1.668 60 foot time, the ALPHA 12 driven by our own Special Projects Technician, Ivan Phipps, went 8.975@169.49 mph!
60 foot 1.668
330ft 4.166
1/8th mile 6.042
1/8 mph 132.74
1000ft 7.634
1/4 8.975
1/4 mph 169.49
In addition the 60-130 time record was broken again with a 3.34 second blast from 60-130mph!! This makes the AMS Alpha 12 GT-R the fastest recorded street car to date from 60-130 mph!!!
Not bad for a true street car with air conditioning and all the other amenities of a GTR. You can drive this car to the store or across the country!
