Found some wheels I like under $2000 brand new and about 9kg each, thought I'd just make sure I can't get a better deal. Prefer silver or gunmetal gray may be acceptable. Mesh type not wanted. Anyone got some wheels fitting the description?

Looking at redbook.com.au $14K would be a more likely selling point. I've already got a fuel guzzler. My next car would probably be a primus :-)

What is the reason for selling? You upgraded to something?

I painted mine, looks great now.

What power output? I don't get anywhere near that top speed. How did you measure the speed?

Now we get to the crux, thanks for the input and experience DiRTgarage I think we are saying mostly the same thing here, but maybe a difference on what acceptable lag is. 1. The GTRS are slower to spool up than the 2530's (you just said that above) 2. The 2530's are slower to spool up than the GTSS (see rb26 forced induction thread) 3. Changing/modifying the head and particularly cams can lower the RPM where the turbo's become effective The original question of the op is the difference between the GTRS and the GTSS, a huge difference you have to agree. With cams or an increase in capacity the turbo's can spool up sooner, what ever turbo's they are. GTRS for maximum power, drag racing and lagier. GTSS for everyday driving and track work, more response. From my perspective, I do not consider with all that head work etc and the turbo's coming on full at 5000rpm to be acceptable, I would be looking for 3500 to 4000rpm. With no work done to my engine the turbo's come on strong at lower RPM and with lower PSI. If I could lower my RPM where the turbo's come on that would make me much happier. Cams can only go so far, increasing capacity seems to be the next logical step. I never say I know a lot but I do read, so has this forum led me to the wrong conclusions above? Everything being the same, would increasing capacity lower the point that the turbo's make power?

Check out allclassifides.com.au should be free.

I don't think anyone was saying exactly that, what they were saying is that they are laggy without an increase in capacity and your graphs, particularly the first one shows it. On a rb26 motor not specially designed for them they are a lot laggier. Once you build a motor specifically for any add on's they obviously run better. Not that different dyno runs tell the full story, thats why Keith wanted to test in real life the difference.

by light I assume you replace the turbo's, add new injectors and AFM's, new computer etc.

You must list an asking price. Dyno charts would be good as well :-)

Wow big difference between the RS and the SS. From everything I've been reading, unless you have increased capacity don't go the RS. I asked a similar question when I was tossing up the 2860R-5 (also known as GTSS) to the HKS GTSS and got no response. I ended up with the 2860R's Every car is slightly different but I can take you for a spin.

Dam, I love the style but I don't want gold rims!! Good luck with it.

While this is in general good advise, I see Skylines from 32's to 34's in car parks all day without being stolen. Get a good immobiliser and park sensibly. Saying that, unless you can afford ANY car be stolen, get insurance.

Well The supra boys love ESP so that would be their vote. However unless they ahave a big screen like Ultimate tunes it kinda sux tryign to see a small screen.

Well guess what..it's Friday and it's bad weather again. I might head out if it clears up later.

I think the GTR should be advetised for $25K, no interest that that price :-)

No need for dedicated track tyres, but it does help :-) It will likely be a monday at this stage as every Friday is booked out until June. Weekend makes the cost unjustified.

I'm in. We just need someone to organise a Tent, the drinks, and talking to who ever is running it this year. It's not that hard, at Marques Bullet32 organised a Tent, Ladybytes ad I organised Drinks and Cejay did the organising. The more people helping the easier it is. I'll take drinks again.

Would probably look to run one with the Supra boys in a few months, not sure on the interest sooner.

Hey Donnan, can we see a mock up of what your suggesting?

Well I think the latest banner with the rear R34 from Mick is the front runner so far, if still a bit dark :laughing-smiley-014:

Hey JD what did the engineer cert set you back? I'm looking at coilovers and should probably get it done.

I think you need to consider the effort and cost of these days. Considering it costs $110 for the normal day Then you get additionally for the $40: An organised day Official timing (big costs for this) Ambulance and flag marshal Derecks guidance where requested A sense of competition with prizes/trophy's and tangible bragging rights The possibility of any profit going to the club

I like the concept of the simple design as well. It is a bit dark, maybe the black car with the white background.

Considering there is no "R" in the japanese language, how did they coem up with the GTR?
