Below is a link to the 'exvitermini' web site which shows an r32 (which sounds beautiful) reach 300km/h in 13.72 seconds. How much time and money would it take to get the car to run that fast???

go to Exvitemini to download the video. If this link doesn't work go to

THESE ARE TWO DIFFERENT LINKS!!!

exvitemini

If you click on the link closest to the buttom click on thre following:

then click on

Movies

>>> scroll to bottom n click more

>>> click on RH9 0-300 tests (0-300 km/h acceleration tests).

>>> download the shortest time 13.72 sec's... What to u think???

without actually watching it, im gonna say thats the veilside R32, and yes it did it in 13.72, but thats what ~1400HP gets you, aswell as consecutive 8 sec passes over the standing quater... on street tyres (nittos of course)

Bugatti did it. The Veyron does it in under 14 seconds. It has 922ft/lbs of torque from 2200rpm to 5500rpm and clocks in at a downtuned 1000hp.

Get your skyline to do that and I guess you'll come very close.

Bugatti. bugatti ,bugatti......thats all i ever hear :P;):laugh::rofl::(:(

My one faster cause its more expensive....100 engineers...two year of tests..More Money than brains.

The Buggatti Veyron......unable to leap tall building . Give me $2,000,000 Aust Dollars and I'll give you

warp drive......... :sorcerer: :sorcerer: :sorcerer:

ffs - i agree. all i ever hear is Bugatti

Throw 2mil at a skyline with 100 engineers - now id like to see that!

Will whatever you build be nominally street legal? Will it run on standard pump fuel? Will it be stable at 400km/hr? Will it be able to be able to do it all day (assuming you can afford to refuel it), in the middle of the desert? Will the car's handling be progressive and benign enough to cope with a range of potential driver skill? Are you building it from a Skyline base car, and therefore restricted in the shape (and therefore aerodynamics) that you are not permitted to modify extensively? Can you do me a production run, with a consistent build quality across every car and a full warranty?

The Veyron does all these things.

Anyone who thinks that the Veyron is anything less than a masterpiece of engineering has no idea how much effort it takes to build any car that will go as fast as the Veyron does consistently, let alone to production quality.

The Veyron isn't legal on australian roads, Yes, How stable do you think anything is at 400km/h 10cm off the ground, no neither can the veyron, driving anything with 1000hp+ isn't easy regardless of it's handling the veyron is no exception, Give me a 1/2 of the price of a veyron and I will build you a skyline based car that will out do one in every aspect, give me the factory, the team and the design and build cost and I will do a production version.

I'm not saying the veyron is a bad car, it's an awesome machine by all aspects, people just seem to get too happy over it and treat it as some godly thing that it's not. you know they are one of the only production cars that will not recoupe buildcosts in sales......if you ask me the car was nothing more than a marketing ploy to get bugatti back into the automotive market, so they were able to say we have the fastest production car...which was short lived anyway....

didnt bugatti get overtaken again by the Koenegsigg CCX ??

Ahhh no.

Bugatti also brought out a more powerful version. 1250hp or something.

Thing is the Bugatti is the 'ultimate' car. Its got awd, its still quite driveable has A/C all leather, nice pretty interior, stereo etc. FACTORY WARRENTY!!! you just wont get the same with a skyline. Sure you can make it fast. That and it wont do 400kmh.

there is a (modified) r33 gtr in a motor mag i have that clocked about 315kmh at avalon airport. beat a lambo which only got about 308kmh. but that took longer than 14 seconds to get it.

but it isn't that unreasonable to think it is possible. just look at the top fuel drag cars. they hit 400kmh in under 5 seconds, 100kmh in 1 second.

You sir, smoke some powerful shit.

    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.  
    • Careful with posts like that around here without the flame suit on @cobo_11! 😂😂 My 330i journal is on here too. That car was so good and super reliable. We still have a 130i in the family which is almost identical to the 330i and easier to find in manual. It has also been almost faultless over the 6 or so years in the family.  I used to want an M car a lot more than I do now but if I'm honest and without trying to sound like a wanker, I can get such good performance and handling out of my 335 without needing to worry about all the crap that goes along with M car ownership. I don't need to worry about my bearings or subframe issues or the cost of replacing brakes or suspension or whether it has been impeccably maintained. And I can leave it places and not get upset when it's always filthy.
