I will just pic up this statement from you. As it seems the only thing that matters in this discussion. . . MONEY!
Maybe not in the UK you will get a GTR build to the ENZO or superior spec for under 1.000.000Euro, but it is possible in japan!
I know a few companies (one around Kyoto) that would do a custome job to make a carbon copy of a GTR shell! And certainly it wouldn't cost 1.000.000Euro to do that, infact they would do it for a fraction of that price. Now just let your imagination free will and imagine what other companies like this could produce for a fat budget.
The point is that japan is not only heaven for quality highend after market tuning, but also a paradise for custome parts manufacturing.
Then when names like Ferrari or Nismo are in fact big names and give you the impression that theses companies are only creating on the highest level of engineering, it isn't really the case! Nismo is bound to their few Nissan subcontractors and since Carlos Goshn killed off 1200small buisnesses to concentrate on core investements (like hireing all kind of engineers around the world to work at a single Nissan research lab in japan), the companies which made the R32 GTR possible for 5.000.000Yen in 1989 are no more working for Nissan!
So it's not a question about being more intelligent then the Nissan core research center, but to simply do (create) the things (parts, solutions) they can't (for budget, priority and lack of focused research issues).
Then at last you say that we (poor mickeys) shouldn't think about "what it would take to make our budget GT , better then an ENZO, simply because we
1) not have the budget
2) Ferrari engineers are gods, and therefore if we are more intelligent then them , we would work there too ex . . .
3) we don't know anything about engineering.ex . . .
I say that:
1) You don't what I have on my bank account, and don't know what I know about what is possible in the world of sponsoring and investement
2) I not want to work for Ferrari in Italy , or for Nissan in Tokyo. So I will never make an effort in that direction.
3) I really don't know anything about engineering, that's becasue I will ask the right peeps to do the job for me . . .
