It would be an interesting contest but i reakon that the skyline would have better final drive ratio than the commondore, giving it more acceleration. With the same, power in a lighter car, with better gear ratios i think the skyline would do it. But, obviously the commondore i would expect to have a fare bit more torque so as i said , it would be an interesting race.

It would be torque Vs ratios!

The VT will get a better launch thanks to an auto but if its a decent drag strip where you can go for at least 400m or longer, the GT-T will own the VT as its a good 300kg lighter.

Mind you 300rwkw VT Auto thats N/A is pretty hardcore.

theres a tone of factors. what mods to the diff etc of the VT? is it a series 1 or 2. is the transmission been kitted or anything? what tyres are they running?

what time would a 300rwkw r34 run?

oh and autos run quicker and more consitent times than a manual. :laugh:

this would a very close race.

i can tell u guys now that the ls1 is going to be pumping 300rw/kw just by doing exhaust alone (my mates dad spent $3500 on extractors alone on his vt series 2 and the rest of the exhaust and got 300rw/kw) remember in europe and US ls1's come with 400bhp from the factory :)

and yes i would like to know what a 300rw/kw gtt would run

hmmm maybe i remembered incorrectly. with the LS1 unlock theres ure 300+rw/kw(would be either europes or US's ecu map) right there. either way its shit cheap to get big power figures out of the ls1's

also aussie ls1s are 5.7L compared to the yank 4.8L or whatever it is...

with an ls1 all you need is extractor exhaust intake and tune and youve got 250+rwkw easy as. not bad for $3k mods or so.

The problem with the Aussie Ls1's are the tune. Get a good tune, extractors and twin 2.5 exhaust and a decent OTR intake and you'll be pushing 250rwkw, good easy bolt on mods. Injectors won't give you anymore power. With cam will make you around 280rwkw.

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
