hmmm my GTR doesn't have variable valve timing, centre differential, front and rear axle, and no black paint on my exhaust manifold either. i'm starting for wonder if my car is really a GTR after all?! someone hold me. i'm scared.

Sounds like you're one of those ricers that slapped a GT-R badge on your GTS-t to make everyone think you're hardcore..... :yes:

Motoring Journos doing any research would make a happy change. Especially those that write for generic news publications, not dedicated automotive periodicals. Even then, most journos are useless.

And, reading through the article, there's so much wrong with it I don't even know where to begin. I'd expect this kind of ignorance over on Carsguide, but I thought Fairfax papers were a bit better.

But, then again, Drive isn't exactly a bastion of accuracy either.

well it's either that or dave morely f**ked up?hmmm i'll have to think about this problem for a while.

the gtr is a "pretty" car

what i couldnt stand were these lines:

But the GT-R wasn't a sensuous looker. It was quite an upright two-door. While it had the obligatory wings and spoilers, its alloy wheels and overall lines are undramatic.

Inside is even more pedestrian with lots of generic Nissan grey plastic, although there are great seats and a lovely steering wheel.

    • It will give gains, but you wont hit 600 It will give gains but it wont get you to 600 imo. You will also sacrifice low down and you will be adding extra volume if you port match it, more so if you port the plenum runners depending and how its done I think the only time youre going to see about 100hp gains is if the car is making well over 1k kw I do have a spare set that I was going to test with, but i dont actually think there is anything worth getting going larger. I did a fair few S14/S15 and the standard TB is fairly small, I went to 60 and in some cases 64mm which is significant over the stock unit. You can also get some weird ratio changes. I think 20kw will be a stretch on a roller dyno. If I had it apart I might mill the shafts a little and not expect much, I think the stock size is still pretty good for a street/track car even with larger capacity. I might change diameter it if its a drag only car
    • Was going to say something about flog, wife, pilates, behind but I better not... No dishonour here

    • As long as the bucket stays against the cam then it will measure up fine, the valve will close compared to a running engine but the bucket will stay against the cam lobe 
    • I feel like i would be like most people who get these, excited for the first 3-6 months and then just totally forget about it. The end products do look sick tho. Ive got a 1/12 scale r32 model, dunno where im gonna actually display it once its all done!
