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

you sure?

ive seen alot of LS1's get 300rwhp from exhaust/intake/mafless tune, but not 300rwkw

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.

      No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.

      R34 GT > GTT compatibilities

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...

      Rear hub bolt torque r34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
