Who Would Be Faster

sorry for the simpleton question, but would it be a different situation if it was an r34 gtr?

I'd say so.

Then you get similar weight, more HP (in the 34) and similar traction capability, so they would be even with the 34 inching ahead the further you go.

no

this is a pretty pointless thread... rwd has more potential to run the quicker time but the awd will be easier to setup and more consistent

at this power level there will be umpteen problems both will face before they even get a proper side by side run that both are happy with... even then the loser will have a million drag racers excuses

[femno]

Can't help but laugh at the number of people putting their money on the GTR. They're quick, undoubtedly, but really. Check how many AWD cars are below 10 seconds in Australia, heck in the world. Now check for under 10s RWD. You'll be going for years sorting through how many RWD cars there are. They've been developing RWD drag cars for a lot longer, AWD is still playing catch up in this field. And can I ask, if you can put all your power through two wheels without spin, why do you need the front wheels working too? AWD was developed for when you couldn't do that.

In short, my money's on the GTT.

??? Lets compare apples with apples here.

Youre telling me a RWD with a H Pattern and a GT42 is going to be able to launch and put all of its power down to the ground?

LOL

Maybe search for under 10s RWD - NON AUTO.

Anyone can stick their foot/finger on the brake and stall it up.

Anyways, let us know the result once you 2 end up racing.

If i had to bet, it would be on the GTR.

Those few crucial seconds that its able to put most, if not all of the power down will see it ahead of the GTT the entire 1/4 mile. dunno about 1/2 mile though.

Yeah. the longer it goes, the more my money would shift to the GTT, but over 400m I doubt the GTT would have the power to overcome the GTRs better launch.

It'd be an interesting race, and bench racing this sort of stuff is fun.

As for RWD being more "developed" for racing, I don't think that counts in this situation. From what I can gather these cars aren't absolute straight line weapons running 2' wide slicks and build on a ladder chassis with a 4 link rear and such. They are stinking hot street cars.

if it was half mile the gt-t would win for sure. that's because it comes down to pure hp, weight, resistance, etc. traction off the line isn't as crucial.

[zebra]

If I were to bet, my money would be on both cars not making it to the finish line.

This really is a pointless argument.

Neither cars are really any good for drag racing, without going for a 4-link / ladderbar rear end and tubbing it, neither car will be able to take a tyre much bigger than 10" wide.

If you wanna have a drag car, buy a torana or a capri, you WILL run 10's with 450hp and slicks.

[Deano 1]

what colour are the cars? are any of em red? remember red cars are always faster

[Cowboy1600]

This really is a pointless argument.

That has nothing to do with it.

If it's so pointless, why are you here?

Seriously, GTFO if it's such an insult to your sensibilities.

[XRATED]

hay mate

ill have some pretty good suspension setup and wide as f**k rims on the back ill be investing heavily on traction and keeping it down as best i can.

mickey thompson drag slicks should be good enough lol.

also throwing the whole nismo suspension arms catalogue at it

A whole nismo catalogue of parts- dose not make "good suspension" especially not for drag racing... If that's your knowledge level, expect 13-14 sec 1/4 mile times.

Oh and "wide as f**k rims" are what 10 inches??? 12 maybe? Bahahahahaha!

The GTR will break a driveshaft or half shaft while launching while the GTT kicks to the side violently at the 60ft line and kisses the wall.

And destroys the pretty carbon parts and super custom awsome go fast paint job.... yet again Bahahahahahahah!

Unless you put an auto in it, youll never catch the GTR.

Correct!

Sounds like a dyno queen to me!

Shure dose... who cares how fast a dyno queen goes....

GTR= Win

GTT dyno queen- Fail

GTT well set up and manual- Close second, higher trap speed.

J.

[snozzle]

lol i just had a good read of this thread, quite funny stuff in here

gt-t will get owned, end of story, way to blow 150k.....

[Lithium]

A lot of people stand a fair chance of being made to look silly here Post results please!

[snozzle]

there are many variables as stated before, but assuming that both cars are setup correctly and the guy driving the 33gtr isnt a dudddd, theres no way the gt-t will make up for lost traction

id like to see fat racing slicks actually fit inside gt-t gaurds, they are pretty small

Who is sillier, person spending $150k on a 34 Gt-t and failing or a person keyboard bashing him for doing it who may be proven wrong?

Ohh touch a nerve did I?

How is spending $150k on any car any different, if the owner is happy with it?

[Cowboy1600]

No, no.

I've been doing this internet thing for about 15 years and am yet to understand why people involve themselves in a discussion to which they have no interest.

Seriously, if you think the discussion is pointless then remove yourself from it. It's not hard.

You wouldn't walk up to someone in real life and stand there talking over them with "I don't care" "You're conversation is pointless" "You're boring" while they try and speak. So why do it here?

If you find it pointless then f**k off. It's quite simple. Those in a discussion that you find pointless clearly don't share your feelings and quite frankly don't give a f**k.

Here is the rest of what i said, I clearly did have some involvement in the thread, by saying that neither car is really suited for drag racing in standardish form.

As a matter of fact that if I was talking to someone about this in person, I would say that it's a pointless idea.

So...how about you take some of your own advise and STFU, this is what forums are about...If no one replied to questions (even if they arn't what the OP wants to hear) than forums would cease to exist.

Curious, how fast do people expect the T04Z GTR to go?
