As much as you lot go on and on about the GTRs and bathurst, the only one they won the race was red flagged.

LOL!

how come no one picked him up on this?

what about '91? forget about that eh? oh- you were 7 years old, sorry =P

fark.. how many of you clowns have horse blinkers on?

the fastest stock turbo'd AUTO soarer in aus runs 12.3 using stock turbo's as stated, darg radials, MV auto's stage one shift kit (no stall converter).

making 230rwkw.

let's a GTST (r32 or R33) do the same...

A stock AUTO TT soarer weighs 1560kg

how is that 600kg heavier than a skyline as some knob put it?

Only problem with the soarer is the fact that it is useless.

it's a 2 door that has piss all back seat room.

piss all boot room.

and yet is a massive car.

Chaser is where it's at.

Which is why im am choosing a soarer over an r32 gts-t as my next car.

well of course the soarer is faster than a 32. they are the slowest of the skylines out of the r32-r34's. soarers without work are in no way quicker than an equally modded r33 or r34. i have been up against a few. the manuals might be very close, but good luck finding one.

Pretty good debate goin on hear guys

Iv got mates that own twin turbo soarers and heres street tested results for ya s. A auto twin turbo soarer will beat a standard or lightly moded auto R33 Gtst but wont beat a manual R33 or R32 Gtst. Like someone else said the soarer has no real purpose besides grandpa s sunday driver or for cruisin. They deffently have power and are a good cheaper alternative but its NISSAN ALL THE WAY for me

Nuff said :santa:

Aurion ay

supercharged 3.5L V6 with an estermated power output of 315hp might be able to keep up with a standard 185kw that a standard R33 Gtst pumps haha. It is a nice car but its not toyotas answer to nissan its there answer to holden and ford

well actually its on par but better where as the r34 has 206kw at the engine..therefor it would be better and more comfortable the aurion...

hmm sounds like u should get ya facts straight....

if we were talking about all out power thats a different story but we aint...haha you guys were compaing the soarer to the gtst and i was comparing the gtt to the aurion...

cheers.

No offense to you...nor anyone else who uses this figure 206kw.

The figure was made up by manufacturers in Japan in the late 80's

and followed through to the late nineties.

They thought that a KW war would not help the development of the cars...(one thing Holden and Ford here

should have learned from)....and so it was a gentlemen agreement to agree that if any car exceeded 206kw

it would be rated at that.

Everyone knows a GTR KW out of the factory was more like 240KW's odd....

What pisses me off though is some EPA tests conducted use this figure...ie noise DB/REV

Back to the Topic.................................everyone by a gtr this way they grow in popularity

and like the supply and demand curve..(which I have always found it hard to understand)....

the prices will increase............and we will be rich......rich I say...hahahahahahahahah

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
