RAW vs REFINED – BUILT PULSAR GTI-R v TUNED NISSAN R35 GT-R Acceleration & Sound by turboandstance - December 7, 2025 In this explosive Nissan showdown, raw old-school fury meets modern engineering as a savage 590 bhp Nissan Pulsar GTIR — nicknamed Baby Godzilla — faces off against a refined, 700 bhp Nissan R35 GT-R. With nearly three decades of technology separating them, this battle delivers pure adrenaline: roll races, quarter-mile launches, wheelspin chaos and razor-close finishes. The lightweight, SR20-powered GTIR shocks everyone by repeatedly pulling ahead, proving that raw power-to-weight and driver skill can still challenge modern twin-turbo muscle. But the drama doesn’t stop there. Midway through the battle, the GTIR suffers a heartbreaking mechanical failure, leaving the ultimate outcome wide open. Still, the data tells its own story: the Pulsar clocks a blistering 6.52s 100–200 km/h run — beating the GT-R — while the R35 answers back with the fastest quarter-mile at 10.93s. Two legends, two eras, and one unforgettable showdown that proves both “raw” and “refined” still have serious teeth. Which one wins your vote?
