i was talking to people at work and i had a long discussion about this with them but they love their holdens and fords. i want to know who would win if there was a race between the v8s at bathurst and the Mines or MCR or other jap racing GTR teams?

i think it would be too hard to determine as you would have to compare lap times...

i doubt any V8 Supercars or the Mines or MCR cars have ever raced on the same track...

response wise, MINES GTR FTW... man that thing is a monster lol

I go to bathurst most years and because of my Mums side of the family who used to race for bob jane i got to meet him and Harry firth who designed the monaro thats were i heard about a "Gt-r" if you go there everyone still talks about i think 92 or 93 the year the GTRs beat like every v8 there, Chances are a Tuned R34 vs V8 Supercar = GTR would win, one of the reasons gtr's won was because of Hicas they had awsome handling and were lightning fast.......So then they banned them because it wasnt "Fair" LOL :)

^what he said. The V8 supercar is a farken long way removed from anything to do with the road version. The falcon even still races with a pushrod V8 even though the road car doesn't.

Besides, I am yet to see any GTR get close to 298kph down conrod... :)

are you serious?

you honestly think mines GTR is going to have better response than a track setup V8? lol

a V6 TT response compared to a V8's response, yeah okay, hard to compete with...

the MINES GTR in general though, i don't think there's many cars out there at all with the V6 TT setup that come close to having response like that machine, in all the videos and time attacks i've seen that car in, the way it revs through all the gears are insane...

i'm just basing my knowledge on how i've seen the car run on the track, that is all... there's nothing wrong with your theory, but i will stand by the fact that every time i've seen that car in action and how responsive it is is insane...

The Mines GTR is a road going car with road rubber. It's going to get smashed by the current spec race trim V8 supercars in a race on any circuit you like.

tru dat

even in the short run from hell's corner to corner 2 at bathurst the v8 supertaxis are getting to 255 kph

i would like the mines gtr do that

650hp from a 5 litre pushrod v8 NA vs a 800+hp 2.6litre turbo???

v8 would absolutely eat it

now - awd in a v8 supertaxi?

thats a different story and would be a very interesting scenario

    • That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age
    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
