Last time i was at WSID there was this sleeper copper orange v8 ss vx, looked totally stock from the outside

then looking under the bonnet....

GT3540!!!.. he said engine has been worked with forgies 5.7L gen3 running 10-11's can't remember but he said he was kiling the diff or drive shafts all the time

I GUESS HE SAW THE LIGHT! V8 + TURBO :(

lolz .... ahhhh good laugh.

why they talking turbos on a v8, when a supercharger is the obvious choice for large displacement anyway?

Not anymore...

The GEN-TT kits are killing most supercharger kits horsepower figures.

They only cost 9 grand as well, so they're pretty cheap in terms of kw gained.

Superchargers were king about 2 years ago, alot has changed in R&D for turbos on V8's since then though.

Alot of VX SS' are running around with the GEN-TT kits now, with not much else done and they're running mid to low 11's

I have run and beaten several eights with my near stock GT-R. it felt great.

the problem is that people are bagging skylines, they are confusing GTS-Ts(which are still great vehicles BTW!!!) with GT-R's.

i haven't met anyone that has driven a GT-R that wasn't absolutely astounded by its overall ability as a performance car.

pfffft. 5.7ltrs suck ass. all that hp now they want to be "ricers" lmao. there family cars for god sake >_<

exactly. just because the engine may have come from a corvette, doesn't mean the rest of the car is at the same level of performance.

    • It's actually really good advice. And I do try to do it. I actually have 2x 3KG dumbbells that sit right beside where I sit. And I look at them a lot. Use them a little. But I'm trying to do more with it. At the moment I'm going through a heap of weight loss too which will help. I cracked into the 85kg mark this week. My weight used to have me sit consistently between 93 to 95KG! That definitely doesn't help. I've also got POTS, which flared up after I got slapped with COVID a few weeks back, and POTS really smashes fatigue and stuff into you, and has a thing even called "excercise fatigue". Basically even the minorest "excercise" (walking from the garage to the house) causes fatigue! And one of the treatments (Other than a med I'm on) is also... Excercise... Ha ha ha So it's why I'm trying to play the game of "might as well" and trying to push through things. For ADHD specifically, the general recommendation is "excercise". When you dig deep into it though, while any excercise is good, the best type is "explosive" excercise. So training for a sport like squash, tennis, even soccer. Things where you need to get the whole body able to "explode" into a different direction change. They've found with explosive sports, (I can't think of the proper term they have for it) that it actually makes the brain grow and become bigger in specific areas. The areas where ADHD causes those parts of the brain to be smaller than normal! But definitely, trying to push myself, and break those bounds mate, and get healthier!
    • Be more active mate.. , not taking the piss ❤️, your long term health will love you for it I would think something like a kettle bell or 2 laying around in areas you go past during the day would be awesome for ADHD.... "Oh look, a kettlebell", and exercise helps your brain health as well My mates son was a bit of a problem child, diagnosed wirh ADHD, and some other things that had his brain occasionally doing loops, until we got him into a training program, the difference after he started training was amazing, he had more focus, and his fitness levels exploded, it is like he is a totally different kid to be around Brain chemistry something something Stay fit stay strong mate
    • I had never actually looked into it, but aren't onboard compressors a thing in trucks?
    • Read the ECU for fault codes or have someone else do it. A faulty coolant temperature sender is usually listed in ECUs. If the sensor itself is not busted it can also be a bad ground connection. Or in a really unlucky case, damaged wiring.
    • Can't be a Futjitsubo as those are made with a flex piece and Reimax is smaller in pipe diameter. If anything it is closest to a Mines pipe, but evidently it is not an actual Mines pipe.   Classic word humor
