GTR's in RWD are no fun at all. Unless you like frying tyres. I had no chance of going fast on the long wang when I killed the front diff at Dutton.

If we did this day i'd also be putting softer springs in and setup like a GTST.

Which is why this baboon now has low mounts........

Lets see if I can get close to your times :rofl:

And while we are running polls....how about a poll on a 2wd GTR class (350-400kw and no 4wd would be fun)

At scrutineering front shafts must be handed to an impartial adjudicator to be known as "The Shaft" (Roy??)

this could work quite well. I hear all sorts of blokes in melbourne have been giving troy the shaft. by all accounts he enjoys a shafting. it's a win win situation.

See what happens when God decides you have been on your training wheels tooooo long! :)

With shafts, without, singles vs twins etc. Whatever...brass nuts times. After the track day how many schooners are we going to sink!

    • Yeah, you are right. It seems easier and more reasonable to boost the engine. And as you said the blocks are very similar but the cylinder bores are different.
    • Sound logic, but in actuality way more illegal than just having the wrong pipe. Normally, doing something like that would be forgery. Meaning you may have certain documentation for vehicle parts, but the actual parts are different ones and you just assign them the numbers and badging from the documents. But nevermind that. Nonetheless, I AM curious if this pipe was ever made by any official manufacturer this way, because I honestly am not familiar with this pipe layout and shape. As I will be putting on the HKS Silent Hi Power once my exhaust gaskets arrive, as long as it sounds right I will just roll with this front pipe. I can always order the actual Mines part if I run into legal issues. It would be an unnecessary expense as there is lots of other problems I have on this car as of now.
    • So, weld a plate with the Mines logo laser cut into it, onto it. Instant Mines pipes, whether they were or weren't originally.
    • I don't know if the blocks are "the same". They will be very very similar. Obviously, either the bore or the stroke is going to be bigger on the 20. If the bore is bigger, then the 18 head is unlikely to fit properly. If the bore is the same, then you can almost certainly fit the CA18 head, but there migth be a few fun things you have to do to make water galleries (or other things) line up properly. Or... it could just be real easy. Is it worth the effort? Almost certainly not. You can make nearly as much power on a 2 valv ehead as you can on a 4 valve. There's not any "magic" in a 4 valve head.
    • Yes, me too!!!!  I need to find a something that has all the abbreviations for what these cars have LOL
