R33 Vs 300zx Hpi Issue? About 6 To 12 Months Ago

[benl1981]

I had a mate lose a few of my mags and this was one of them The mag was released about about 6-12 months ago.

It had 0-100 times etc..I think they got the r33gtst at 7.1sec saying it was a bit slower than others they had tested.

I wanted to keep this article for down the track etc.

Can anyone do a nice quality scan or something for me..if that is not too hard to get.

Cheers

Im pretty sure ive got that one ... i'll have a look and let you know ... from memory i think they said the skyline was a better pick =)

They say something about the Z having a better motor but a non responsive spahgetti chasis or something like that ... r33 was much more fun to drive =D

end rant

[benl1981]

thanks mate - Yeah I think they came to that conclusion

Better drivers car or something..

Good choice hey..

7 sec was bit slow. Although stock I reckon mine would have probably been close to that..

[MsG_ChRiS]

No worries ...

Yup ... im happy with my line

With 0-100 times unless you flat change every gear ... most stock lines will be close to that time ...

They thrash f**k out of the cars they get those times out of ...

I'll have a look tomorrow for that mag man ive got to search through a six foot high stack lol (<--- not looking forward to that lol)

I reckon ive spent $1500 ~ $2k on magazines man (<--- thats a high flow or something lol ... )

Yeah I have a bit wrapped in magazines also.

Re. the 0-100 times. Thats why rexys do so well. After driving a few of them they dont feel nearly as quick as the figures. Roll on acceleration the R33 and almost a commodore would probably beat them.

You have to dial in 6k rpm and dump the clutch to go well.

You dont need to flat change to get factory times. But you car needs to be in top nic, good tyres and a good driver. I could do mid to low 6's when mine was stock. But if I stuffed the launch it could be as high as 8's

How the f**k do you get traction when dumping the clutch at 6000rpm, mines stock and if i did that i just wheelspin and bounce off the rev limiter. And no the tyres aren't shit, toyo proxes.

I think he is reffering to the WRX.
