There is nothing anecdotal about the fact that Nissan can void the transmission warranty if it detects VDC has been shut off. That is stated quite clearly in the GT-R manual. And VDC does need to be off to enable launch control.

So put yourself in the shoes of a GT-R owner. You've just plunked down at least $80K of your hard earned dollars for your twin turbo terror. Do you risk voiding your warranty to out launch that Z06? Remember, if anything goes wrong down the road with your trick DCT transmission, you stand the risk of paying out of pocket.
