Not having driven either, but from impressions I've gathered from others who have...
The Porsche is a bit more visceral and raw in the driving experience. Where the Nissan has a little bit more of a sterile, disconnected feel. Both perform very well at the limits, but one requires more of your attention and focus than the other.
The Porsche seems to be more of a living, breathing animal, while the Nissan is much more mechanical and matter-of-fact. When driving near the limits of the two, this makes the Porsche more rewarding to the driving enthusiast, as it takes more skill to keep things under control.
The overall impression I get is that anyone (relatively speaking) can drive the GTR fast, but the Porsche demands more from you, but delivers back in spades.
Again, just what I've heard, read and been told. Unfortunately, that's all I have to base my opinion off of, as the chances of me taking one to the track anytime soon are pretty slim.

based on the current post on the 1 year review of GTR reliability with 700 hp tune and zero reliability issues, I again would have to say I am into the GTR. The GT3 will give natural and balanced handling but, the GTR provides more grip and is able to produce ungodly power with very little investment and will still provide bullet proof performance. Its a design and engineering marvel and it dirt cheap on top of it.
