$170,000 car vs a $70,000 one..

good comparison

does it matter?

at the end of day you get what you could afford and feel good about yourself. thats all theres to money.

besides this RS4 could probably smoke a $400,000 F430 too!

who cares about monetry value, i love chopping mercs, commodores, falcons, occasionally an audi too...

the look on their face when they get chopped by an old import is priceless!

wanker in SLK55 darting through traffic, revving his V8 that sounds lik a toilet flushing..... gets chopped by a skyline at the next set of lights.......

funny if you ask me

personally i think the soon to arrive new rs6 is where its at. It has the v10 lamborghini engine from the gallardo THEN they added two turbos.

Estimates place power in excess of 400KW and 750Nm.... now THAT IS IMPRESSIVE!!!

I hate stupid comparision,

Just like a long time ago, the guy in TOP GEAR compared an R33 gtr with a Mc claren F1 road car, what a dumb c**t. If anyone notices he always favour Britis made cars. I wish i could talk to the short minded face to face.

He did that to show just how fast the F1 really was. The GTR was used as an example of a very fast car. He needed a bench mark to show how much the bar had been raised by the F1 which was only surpassed again recently by the Veyron. Personally I was stoked that they used a GTR as the comparison.

a stock mclaren is going to hose a stock r33 gtr.

*waits for the " such and such's 700kw gtr would kick it's arse"

and my response is, possibly, but i bet that at above 200kmh the maclaren would pull away because the aerodynamics of the gtr aren't designed to let it go up to close to 400kmh.

but if i had to drive from brisbane to sydney i'd much preffer the SLK55. and unless you know that the person in the other car is 100% trying to win, how can you say you chopped them. they might have been using 50% throttle and just hoping that there was a cop waiting around the corner to get you.

i like skylines. they are a great car, but they aren't the best car. but at the end of the day, if you spend $100,000 making a skyline as fast as you can, or buying a car for $100,000, the resale on the $100,000 is going to be way better, and it would probably be much nicer to drive, and much more reliable.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 路 Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 路 Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin 路 Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
