Get involved in motorsports and then you'll get the opposite.

"shit mate that car is fast - how much power are you making?"

"it's pretty stock actually. I dunno 200kw's or something"

"but doesn't it have a HKS 2.8L with twin 2860-5's"

"ah yep. But its pretty standard otherwise"

"other than the hollinger, dry sump, RS shocks, cf panels, bigger brakes etc"

"yep other than them pretty standard as I said"

reminds me of this bloke i met once. i was then making 260rwk in my gtst and one bloke from the area is like my mate raced you and you just lost man. lol.

i asked him how much power his friend has and hes like " its got a exhaust and boost making 200 at the wheels". I laughed so hard.

i responded it must be a absolute freak to keep up... then i showed him the dyno sheet. The look on this guys face was so priceless.

i wanted to punch him in the face but i found it too funny :)

I can think of worse, someone trying to convince you your car is something it isn't.

The R34:

"OMG, that's a GT-R."

Me: "No, it's a four GT-T."

"I know my Skylines."

Me: "I can promise you it's not."

"It has a GT-R engine though."

Me: "No it doesn't."

and so on and so forth.

N15:

"Is that one of those AWD Pulsars."

Me: "No, it's front wheel drive."

or

"Is it turbo?"

Me: "Do you think the front mount is there for looks?"

Eventually I just give in and let them believe whatever makes them happy.

when i first got car i went to dyno day and it made 139kw so i always use that figure :)

I'm with you on this one... ...Went to a Dyno Day at RE Customs and got almost 150kws... ...So I tell people that... ...It's got what it's got...

However... ...If you're a tool in a Comedydor and you ask me at the lights I might just say it's a little shy of 250kws... ...And then let you tear up those sweet looking steel stockies as you try to prove you've got more ba-- *ahem* power... :)

Oh snap. I was going to post that Ash :mad:

I mean I wanted to just get right into it but I thought f*ck it. What the point….

Exactly.

Who cares what power other people claim to have... good for them. If it's not true then they're only fooling themself :yucky:

    • The autos suck. Anyone with an auto wants to go manual. Also, the one thing you don't really need to change is the dash. You don't really need to know (on the dash) what gear position you have selected. What you do have to change is the tailshaft, a bunch of wiring, probably gearbox crossmember, a bunch of fiddly shit like the spigot bearing in the back end of the crank, find a flex plate and a converter, etc. A whole lot of pain. Most of those autos have been rightfully put into metal recycling bins, so they're not exactly easy to find either.
    • Appreciate it man, gives me hope based on my Google searches on availability of GTR parts.  When you say I'm "not going to," is this in the vein of "who on earth would want auto," or more "it's impossible?" Not trying to be rude, truly don't understand haha. I know, it'd be a madman move to go manny to auto, but if it IS my only option, I'd be curious on the lift.
    • Shit's f**ked. Looks like there might be a crack to the intake valve seat on the opposite side of the chamber also. Defo pull the whole thing down. Nothing good can come from just doing the head on a motor with comp figures that low anyway. You'll hate yourself less in the long run.
    • Well hit the first larger snag in the build!    Car wasn’t running 100% right even before I took it for a drive, starting slow and felt like a bit of a miss so compression tested it once I got it into the garage and on stands for the winter.   That would do it…   Got to tearing everything out and was greeted with this   Seat looks a little mangled but somehow the cylinder is fine   Will check the turbine next wonder if the piece made its way in there and chewed up some fins.    Once I survey the extent of the head damage I’m going to have to make a decision. Cylinder 4 is kind of low anyway so might not be a bad idea to take a peek at the bottom end while I’m already in it
