The cars pictured above, as you’ve already seen, were built as a “set” for a pair of Ohio brothers who share a passion for fast automobiles that must be in their DNA. In addition to being 1000 hp street-beasts, these Ultimate Street Edition Switzer Performance GTRs are also highly-detailed customs, with subtle paint and finish …
This first car we’ll be looking at is the one on the left. Over the last few weeks, the crew at Switzer Performance have started referring to this car as “the ‘Murica car”, for obvious reasons. In addition to the 1000 hp Switzer USE conversion and the obvious American flag graphic on the roof, the …
Family is something we think about a lot here at Switzer Performance, and not just because we have three generations of Switzer tinkering around within these walls. No, we’ve been thinking about family because the 2 Switzer-tuned, Nissan GTR-based Ultimate Street Edition supercars you see here belong to brothers! “It’s been great working with these …

When it’s burned deep in the heart of an expertly blue-printed and balanced Switzer-built racing engine, however, nitromethane can be a wonderful thing. How wonderful? Try …
By now, some of you have probably checked out the amazing (and official) Chadbee photo gallery over at GTR Heritage covering the TX2K13.

When the Switzer Performance-tuned “Red Katana” R1K-X GTR broke cover for the first time last summer, it was an immediate sensation. With its two-tone paint job, beautifully appointed and quilted-leather interior, subtle (but effective) body mods, and window-rattling audio system, it should come as no surprise that the Red Katana got plenty of attention … …
This was the scene in our Oberlin, Ohio parking lot two days ago when we started packing up many thousands of horsepower Switzer Porsches and GTRs to take down to TX2K13, which is probably happening as you read this … of course, if you’re subscribed to our newsletter then you already had the official event …
