The 1,100 HP Switzer "Ultimate Street Edition" GTR - /TUNED

It wasn't long ago that driving a 1000+ horsepower car came with many sacrifices. These were race or show cars, not to be used daily. Enter the Switzer "Ultimate Street" GTR. On pump gas, it makes 1,000 horsepower with virtually no downside. On race gas, it makes 1,100 horsepower. And the owner of this particular GTR uses it as his daily driver to commute to work. Is 1,100 horsepower enough to get to the office? We'll find out.
*Update* 0-60: 2.5s, 1/4 Mile: 9.4 @ 150, Standing Mile 208 mph.

[@isaiahr7338]

I NEVER get tired of watching him launch this beast of a GTR! He's reaction is PRICELESS!!!!! lmao

[@mawsrcgarage4443]

11 years after the video went posted and still amazed with the car! Thank you!!!

[@jyanlan1875]

The things people say after driving a 1000WHEEL Horsepower car ... "Ooweee DoggY! "LMFAO

[@keeturbo]

1000hp is really like an orgasm,it makes you say some weird stuff and make promises to her you don't remember later.But like a 1000hp it feels sooooo gggoooddd.

[@leonardoisidoro3224]

And ppl say money can't buy happiness .

[@jayrodriguez3848]

Buys you some sort of satisfaction, hardly ever will it actually make you “happy”. Coming from someone who has $347K in his account.. and that’s not even a lot

[@YaseenAli-zn9ej]

Jay Rodriguez bruh. Are u on a drug. 347k a lot of money. We’re not rich like u

[@johnjohnson6291]

heck yes that's a lot

[@CanIbeFrank]

Can money buy a jet ski? Have you ever seen someone riding a jet ski that wasn't smiling?

[@BaldHeadedManc]

@@jayrodriguez3848 you're doing something wrong then😂😂

[@giannidellarusso]

I have been watching Matt F the host for couple of years now on multiple different shows. His way of reviewing the cars has changed and got way better. Keep up the good work.

[@kenshinhimura9387]

Isn't it funny this little V6 that's less than half the size of an average american V8 is completely dominating the car world?

[@Skoombit]

you to realise this car has TWO TURBO's bigger than your head?

[@evanelnicki7564]

Kenshin Himura plain v8 vs twin turbo??? cylinders and engine size hardly have anything to do with power these days almost any engine can be made to put down crazy numbers ive seen 1000+ hp 4 cylinder engines explain that

[@Skoombit]

Wait what "average" american V8 has at least 7.6 litres?? Fucking moron

[@richardharrold9736]

Kenshin Himura In physical bulk it's bigger than any American V8 in production today. More moving parts too by far, even without counting the turbos and intercoolers. However, what does a GT-R make bone stock? 480hp or so? Not that different to the naturally-aspirated GM 6.2 does today.

[@gringo7610]

that's engineering for ya!

[@nortondlcl]

I have to figure out a way to afford one of these !

[@lilmarv08]

there's always prostitution.

[@towelie4774]

A$AP HULK he could sell himself to 100000 people for a dollar each. good idea

[@lilmarv08]

Then you'll need another 60,000 for the 1100hp package

[@nextlevel7108]

A$AP HULK 😂😂😂

[@orlandowilliams2087]

[@Laylander]

Lol, when I drove my 180HP opel corsa I thought that's fast. Nevermind xD

[@catnip1171]

i LOVE Nissan

[@protectandswerve]

If I hit the lotto, THIS WILL BE my first purchase! Been wanting one for so long.

[@dragonvlv]

Toyota Supra and Nissan GTR are two best cars to tune the engine.

[@jyanlan1875]

If toyota Supra was good at all they would still be making the car. Its just cheap as shit to upgrade because those junk cars are 20 years old. nothing special.

[@ErebosGR]

Jyan Lan You are clueless. In addition to the engine, Supra transmissions and rear differentials are still used as upgrades in engine swaps or even in Formula Drift cars because they're virtually bulletproof.

[@ch3fxexcell3nce]

ErebosGR Just the transmission alone on Ebay is more than a good used car. and it's for good reason, those Getrag sixes are awesome

[@jyanlan1875]

Only idiots buy car parts off eBay.

[@mannytafuerte]

Jyan Lan I'm pretty sure we all know who the idiot is here.

[@daveshaw9344]

GTR has such a unique sound Recognizable from a distance if you've ever had one in your city, a tuned one especially

[@DukeTheRulerr]

good job bro UR channel is f.n EPIC love all the vidoes

[@KillerKyle94]

[@pablonaracena]

That's amazing. I don't get tired watching this video

[@paparazzizi]

carbon fibre backseats saving 1 pound... really useful with a 300 pound driver^^

[@onixxx1984]

The driver should burn some fat off, it would be a better weight saving idea.

[@JohnSmith-ud9ex]

Marty Lynchian Jealous much ? Maybe because he knows what he's doing, he's a good presenter and he has a personality that appeals to people enough to lend him their priceless cars to thrash the shit out of... And you ? What do you bring to the table ?

[@JohnSmith-ud9ex]

You sound like someone that pulls a face when having to accept grubby change from those that you believe to be below you... I suggest that you look through the backlog of episodes and learn a little, not only from Matt's reactions but particularly from the reactions of those he meets toward him and his enthusiasm. I'm sure many of them would bear testament to his abilities and to his qualities as a presenter. Perhaps then you'll find something missing in that universe in which you reside... By the way, double check your spelling, your grammar and your initial use of the English language. It gives away the fact that you're actually not quite as elite as you would have others believe, that your high end sports car is more than likely something rather more mundane and that you are, in fact, tediously boring... : )

[@johncaldwell1325]

Marty Lynchian Someone sounds a tad bit jealous lol.

[@Nippledozer]

Marty Lynchian are you fucking blind? This guy is white.

[@AMRsti93]

nothing like a hairy bald guy getting excited about horsepower hahahahah love it.. im bald too

[@TheSmokingTire]

I just drove the 2013 GT500, and there was a lot more I could ask for. Like a real set of brakes and a chassis that didn't take a hop a foot to the side after hitting the smallest of bumps.

[@Bull14R]

that is one of the most brutal exhaust tones I have ever heard!

[@96dancingqueen96]

if your having a bad day you can just..... 7:26

who says 962hp to the wheels is slow?

[@bilicki44]

I’m jealous of you Sir, you’re having way to much fun! I had the opportunity I drive a 850whp GTR and I was absolutely stunned and now selling current car to get one! Lol

[@leequesada439]

I can't wait to get my GTR next month. SOOOO EXCITED!

[@julthebaber]

Everytime i watch this video i get goosebumps at 5:55. Every fucking time D:

[@jamesgarvey8402]

Shell gas. 😎👍

[@TheSmokingTire]

they are very similar products, he was just saying it says volumes about Switzer as a company because they were willing to work on maintaining, servicing, and repairing an AMS tuned car.

[@Atrax1207]

What a machine. One of my favorite cars like ever. Amazing stuff!

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Awesome build, but I hate the chalk board finish. Honestly, why are matte finishes so popular? It's impossible to maintain AND it looks shit.

[@MikeEM1]

loving this GTR. Picked mine up earlier this year. check out my vid. Will do a review on it soon

[@alxkenney]

WoW... Puts my M5 to shame & looks just as cool. Good Job on the Video, Awesome Tuner... Like Anton said, Sahweeeet!

[@TheCaffeinatedDrive]

the endings for the tuned videos are awesome :D

[@Ispharel]

$140,000 for that GT-R, or $1,000,000 for a Veyron SS. C'mon...

[@SuperNuclearDeath]

I choose Venom GT for $1,000,000+ USD range.

[@Ispharel]

SuperNuclearDeath Fair enough :D

[@noahwheatley9523]

[@KotatkoVonDrapek]

both are shit cars

[@SilentRage5050]

veyron ss is 4 million usd buddy

[@myfaceisonfire1]

maybe you dont like your wife... maybe you prefer jail.. lmao

[@philaburton]

big fan keep up the great work!!

[@TAYOTAS]

Every Nissan GTR video, I'm convinced :D

[@civoreb]

The only problem with this car is that its design is nothing special. Unless you are a car enthusiast, this car wont stand out in a crowd. To most people, it looks like an old body style G35. There were times where I almost didnt notice its presence in public because it looks so bland and Im an extreme car enthusiast. Other than that, the car is a beast in every other aspect.

[@samwisethree]

I agree. Ugly Car. Performance wise.. It almost has no peers. My personal fave is the R33 appearance wise....

[@MrShagification]

I like the fact that it isn't super flashy. It'd make it all the more satisfying when someone got in your reasonable looking vehicle then proceeds to shit their pants when they have suddenly gone from idle to 60 in not even 3 seconds.

[@civoreb]

John Shepard Well here is the thing with that. I have been in 500+ hp B5 S4 that looks plain to anyone who isnt a fan which did 0-60 in 3.6 for far less than the GT-R costs. The S4 is an example of a non flashy fast car that with 30-40k dollars you can tune to crazy speed. These kind of cars are too common. You dont want a 100k car to blend in with those cheaper cars. Part of being a super car is to stand out.

[@MrShagification]

Well, to me the GT-R is flashy enough But, yeah, it wouldn't be my first pick if I was going for a big head turner. Obviously, you want the big names like Ferrari for that. Personally, I quite like the design of it. Regardless of price or specs, I like the less flashy looks of it.

[@Arrozconchopsticks]

I easily noticed these cars everytime i saw one. They look good to me.

[@the.gtr.kid.5570]

This car is faster than the Bugatti's

[@michaeljohnlopez7031]

you sure kid?

[@michaeljohnlopez7031]

victor chung Fans can believe whatever they want. Note to self: Never argue about the GTR on youtube.

[@grandmasteryoda9893]

Michael John Lopez many car is. its just top speed that make the car "faster" bugatti is slow vs car that not fokus 100% top speed.

[@DonSWG]

Here's some actual numbers. The Bugatti Veyron does a 1/4 mile in 10.2 seconds at around 135mph. This does it in 8.9 seconds at around 160mph. This is faster in terms of acceleration which, in America at least, matters much, much more than top speed.

[@grandmasteryoda9893]

David Morgan ppl alway say Bugatti is fastest bco. off top speed. it is np to get that speed, it only if wish to do it. det one:1 og to beat the shit out off veyron

[@Brock_Landers]

Wow, what a car. I would KILL to have your job Matt. Seriously, I am so envious that you get to drive and judge cars all day. I'm sure that it took you a long time and a lot of work to get there and I'm sure that this isn't your only job, but man would I love to do what you do.

[@henrik998]

it's 1000 on the crank, 880 on the wheels when it's on pump gas, and 962 on the wheels, 1100 crank when it's race gas :)

[@ljhardrock8484]

You should drive AMS GTR better build by far

[@Tain950]

I agree, for around the amount of money you can get a way better package from AMS.

[@MrImabeast916]

This guy owned an ams alpha 6 before this one and chose switzer

[@ljhardrock8484]

yeah but that was the lowest of the AMS product and this is the best of switzer. If this guys gonna compare companies then why go all out with one and not the other. I have driven both and the alpha 12 is my favorite not say switzer is bad but i would have like to see him drive an alpha 12 to compare.

[@MrImabeast916]

Very true.

[@jackaslope]

anyone else think the GTR looks like a refrigerator?

[@MetalAsFork]

ModernDinosaur I dunno man, guess you have a pretty cool fridge.

[@jackaslope]

a pretty fuckin fast fridge too

[@bud385]

+ModernDinosaur if your fridge has CRAZY LAUNCH control & goes 0-60 in under 2.5 seconds then yep its a fridge.

[@jackaslope]

I mean, it can still be a fridge. It's just a ballistically fast fridge. bud385

[@bud385]

+ModernDinosaur dude, can I get a ride in your fridge ? its faster than mine.

[@sayit8ntso]

O thanks mate! Beautiful car you have there.

[@TheSmokingTire]

an awesome one.

[@TTURBOVOLVO]

talk less and show more footage of the car

[@MyGoToUserName]

Matt summed it up pretty well later in the series, It's all about balance and the experience a car leaves with you. Who needs 1100hp that you can never fully tap on the street, when you can have a third or a quarter of the power that you can more readily utilize in a lightweight chassis that is properly sorted and deliver a unforgettable driving experience.

[@AGStylZ]

I had the pleasure of having fun in a GTR last year and that was a wild ride, I can't imagine driving this thing...nice!

[@DriftKingBG]

nice... you guys test the craziest cars...

[@tstorm10233]

I saw the related video in the side bar too, good detective work

[@dextec49]

That is incredible. pumped gas 91, 19 mpg, sweet. best GTR yet breathing fire off the exhaust. Amazing!!!! Thank you and thank the owner. Drive is the best for its' brutal truth. Ride on!!!

[@saidgrc]

Those taillights are a dream!!!

[@lambogtrbeast2345]

Went out to the Switzer facility yesterday to review the USE package, and to assess their credibility as an operation in meeting my needs. I walked away from the afternoon completely impressed with the team, and the car was fantastic. Needless to say, I'll be receiving a 2014 USE model in March if all goes right! Go Switzer!

[@Shortgrauzis]

god. that launch looked brutal!

[@supersayin1]

Seriously my heart started racing when he really got into it and that Monster ROARED!!! Never ever had that happen while watch a freaking video of any other car!! WOW JUST FREAKING WOW!!!

[@NiCkBeNzOLoReNzO]

Your job is amazing

[@lorilori311]

I like your posts a lot. He visto que tienes muchas veces la bandera espanola en la manga. Yo soy rumano pero me gusta mucho la forma de ser y comportarse de los espanoles, nuestra idioma se parece bastante siendo una idioma de origen latino. Aproposito, he vivido 7 anos en espana y puedo decir que es un pais y tambien un pueblo maravilloso. You are good, very good, keep good working!!

[@N_Richd1]

Damn! I thought I was watching a late 2021/22 video til I looked at the date. Fark!!

[@LedGaRRagE]

Rocketship Godzilla from Japan! ,,,great review as usual

[@knysna83]

Awesome video! Don't worry too much about the price dudes, in Australia you can't even get a bone stock GTR for $140 000. They cost upwards of $170 000 from the factory. You guys have got it extremely good.

[@URELL17]

That sound can cure depression! 🙌🏽

[@makaveli200369]

Were you guys on the back streets of oxnard/camarillo/ojai when filming this? It all looks familiar to me :)

[@Bewar955]

Simplement DIABOLIQUE !!! La meilleure voiture du monde selon moi. Certes une GTR modifiée par Switzer donc bien plus puissant que d'origine mais celle d'origine est tout autant fascinante (et puissante...).

[@theresonly1truth138]

it is the best vid. i've ever seen. truly. it seems that Mr. Farah and i have the same taste maybe because we came from the same origins - middle east.

[@PetesTurboGarage]

[@baschalmighty]

the way you say: it makes 1000hp... on pump gas just made my day

[@AmaZynBackpacK22]

So beautiful.

"Ohh yeahh, heee dawggie" LOL this thing's a beast

[@Shortay1325]

I love american muscle but me being a neutral car enthusiast.. The GTR is such an amazing piece of engineering, extremely impressive even when it is stock. It is definitely one of my dream cars.

[@UrbanChaos20]

Amazing vehicle

[@jumpman366]

its the fact that it preforms so well against other supercars and its only 100,000 then you can tune it up to match the Hp of other cars and still be cheaper. Its very reliable, looks like a normal car and its all wheel drive. I love it.

[@MCompeticione]

So clean

[@petro5051]

engine sound like a angel scream

[@confuzler6985]

Matt Farah got some of the best quotes ive ever heard about the GT-R, i think he is one of the few who understand what the GT-R is about. It is a car that you can drive everyday incognito (well almost), stop at a gas station and fuel it like any other mom's car, get groceries on your way back from work, and still be able to put a performance on the street that is impossible to achieve unless you are in an alien looking 7 figure car or have a trailer following you with racing gear and crew...

[@wordreet]

See me happy in an estate version of this. Just because of the madness.

[@anthonymcgrath]

i'd be interested in hearing what Matt thinks of this versus the henessey venom ?
