Sv6 runs what a high 14 standard, a turbo r33 runs a low 14

Your 50hp turbo less r33 will not beat an sv6

So pull the other leg son

This!, I recently sold a VE SV6 & i've many DE daily drivers, unless the sv6 has something big time wrong with it, it will dish you a beating, an exhaust that big on an NA will just be a megaphone

That was just between driving one and drivin mine i will be taking it to wsid in next few weeks and il post pics of time slips

Please do, i'll come and watch.... hell i might even run again.

Il put up the date I'm going when I figure out work times, I must be very wrong in terms of driving one from the other and I will admit I'm wrong but from what I could remember didn't seem

That much quicker, il put a 0-100 vid up and you can see if it what I think it is or if I'm way off any ideas on what a normal de is?

Has oil return lines to sump and det on plate so I'm pretty sure it was det

Never put a car down quarter so I have no idea what it would be

Dunno why so many people are so negative I'm

Not out trying to prove its a monster I was just saying it doesn't go as bad as every makes out

Its still ball of fun to drive

Sorry of I upset some people by saying the sv6 thing but that's what I thought

the main point we are all making is that it will be noticably slower than a factory non turbo skyline, for the simple fact that the engine is running much less compression. so that, and the fact that other people have done this and put it on the dyno and made about the same power as a hyundai excel. however the condition of the engine comes into play a bit. a very healthy DET will have similar compression to a rather unhealthy DE. however an unhealthy DET (that may still seem ok to drive with the turbo still attached) will be well down on compression compared to a healthy DE (to the tune of about 30%)

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
