The RA-R is quoted as 320 BHP/432 NM (which I think it about 318 Ft. Lbs.).

I daresay the GT-R would have spanked the lot of them. It would be up, what, 150+ BHP on the nearest rival (the RA-R I think?) plus it has a trick gearbox and the like as standard. If you look at the times at the end of the video the fastest lap the RA-R puts in is a 1:06.405
Now watch this...
(Race starts at 29:50).
The GT-R puts in a 1:02.125 on the same circuit (I appreciate that there is a different driver, track conditions and the like). Even excluding these factors though, the GT-R has to be at least a couple of seconds a lap faster.
Back when all the JDM stuff was on relatively equal footing I think putting an older GTR in there would be an interesting comparison, but with the current GT-R I think it would be a forgone conclusion...
...in my opinion anyway!
