Sounds like some TRX owners....

(hehehe)

Told us they'd smoke us on dyno day, but their cars couldn't get anywhere near the power figures of the R31's, and they're still making excuses, so now we're organising a drag day just to put an end to the dispute.

:burnout:

hmm.. I'm still of the belief that with a $20k GTS-T, an extra $20k spent, even if you have to chuck in a DETT engine ($10k?)..then spend $10k on the rest of the mods it will still be cheaper than what you'd spend on a GTR. Sure it will still handle like a -T but still, i think its in the realms of possibility.

Actually buy a Silvia for $10k.. chuck a RB26DETT engine in it and run away as fast as you can.. i think over the years this will become a lot more common and there are going to be some seriously quick hybrids around.. like the 12B is a common upgrade for just about any dato 1200, gemmini, etc at the moment - just the reliability sucks ass..

Look what I've started, and boy have I let my mate know. U know what I think im going to start a lot of Skyline vs Forums to see how people rate the skyline against other japanese icons (ie Supra, rx7 etc)

MIght be biased though, but really what Jap car is better than the Skyline.....it (GTR-34) has one the japanese touring championship (sorta like the V8's here) the last 5 YEARS IN A ROW!!!!

Skyline vs ????????

i think a big factor in this is modifications. i dont konw if u said this, but how much iz hiz wrx modified? i mean....if its been done to run 9second 400m....then yeah its gonna beat alot.

not only does it depend on modifications...but also on the driver

stuff stock... skyline isn't that quick stock.. needs to be running 10-12psi to make it reasonable. Thing is spend $3k on a skyline gts-t and you'll have it running pretty fast.. whereas a WRX you'll be spending a hell of a lot more.

GTR is in a world of its own.. there is a reason everybody wants one or talks about owning one - they are the most powerful japanese sports car in terms of handling, upgrades, and of course the power.

WRX are just a 45k hotted up up Impreza.. Just like a clubsport is a hotted up Commodore. And a skyline is a ???? A skyline, nothing else.. not a family car, not a base model xxx with go fast bits. It starts with the GTR and they work back taking bits off until you have a GTS.

ha.. thats good man.. makes my 13.981 with the few things i have on my car look a bit dodgy :D

I want a mid-low 13 i guess which is what my car should be capable of really.. hence the heathcote idea in a few weeks
