ok, thats great

one guy gets to drive home in a gtr

the other in a busted old civic

who's the real winner?

but, who really modifies cars like that for comfort....not many

just another way to look at it...

moral of the story, skylines are not invincible...

this clip is so old

the gtr isnt giving it 100%..

look at the acceleration the civic has as it goes past.

if the gtr is flooring it against a light civic that manages to accelerate that fast past the gtr.. well it would be inpossible to grab that much traction in such a light FWD car and pass a gtr like that.

and besides.. no matter how much they punch it, the other people on the road hardly seem to fall back into the distance, if it was real then you wouldnt see ppl in the backround at all

all you are seeing is a gtr gearing down and giving half throttle against a semi quick civic

a civic with a k20a swap isn't slow

So one can still go round corners safly and the other cant. Cool!

That said the civic is probably giving it a good hiding. My mates fwd corolla is still being run in on 6psi and obviously less revs, stock computer shocking tune etc, and his car just EATS mine. When he gets the haltech he has installed and tuned, runs 20psi, and revs it out to 8500rpm... I highly doubt a mild to mid modded gtr will beat it (assuming he doesnt snap drive shafts, gearboxes, and somehow gets enough traction to move forwards). But his car wont go round corners, its f'ing scary now in a straight line. Moral is, you put big motors in little cars they will go very quickly, but probably wont be any good at anything else.

as usual, wanky americans building cars that dont go around corners or bends.

even if the civic bet it i would love to see both cars take it out on a race track. and to see the comments that all those people left on the video is horrible.

But untill i see an american car that can turn corners im not even gonna bother thinking that they have a decent car that can race.

There is literally no difference to strapping on a rocket to that car and lighting it while driving beside a GTR.

this has been discussed on many forums!!!

There was no race because the traffic behind is going the same speed as the skyline LOL

This thread was made by a clown that thinks that the single cam rb30's are better then a twin cam RB30.

Wouldnt take much notice of him.

      Powder coating wheels

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm interested if anyone agrees with what you've said, and can give a good reason. Temperature of powder coating should be below any temperature you'd use to alter the wheel structure.  Powder coat typically 200 to 250. Annealing if that's what people are claiming would be occuring, starts at 300, and depending on the alloy, can need even up at 400+.   That's the only part I can think of that could cause an issue that people are believing it's from the rim losing hardness and becoming too soft.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Negative probe should be on the cars chassis. Positive on the wire.   Start as said above by unplugging everything (unplug the lights, and switches. Now at the switch, there is a wire from the fuse, to the switch, so out your positive on that terminal. It should read open circuit. If it reads something, especially a stupid low value, the short is somewhere between the fuse and the switch. If that's fine, now put the positive probe on the wire that goes to the headlight (at the switch plug). If it reads stupid low, the fault is from the switch, to the headlight.   Another quick test, is take the whole LED light setup from the left, and plug it into the right side, does it still blow the fuse? If you put the right hand side led light setup on the left hand side wiring, does the left hand side wiring now blow?  If the blowing fuse swaps from right to left doing this, your LED lights are the issue.

      Anyone know if it's a problem to powder coat forged alloy wheel centers (Rays/Volk GT-C). some say it's bad and can damage the alloy, some say it's not a problem.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Hey guys, I'm reviving an old post but I'm finally getting around to working on this now. I removed the battery to get a better look at the wires and i traced the wires from the headlight to the fuse box in the engine bay, but the wiring looks fine? The wiring for the R/H headlight is 3 wires and then is bundled up with the large diameter wire that goes underneath the fuse box. I didn't take it apart yet. I know you said that its a short circuit somewhere between the fuse box and the headlight. But could it be the headlight switch on the dash? Also, i pulled out my multi-meter and set it on the Ohms, but i'm not sure where to put the negative probe and the positive probe.
