Who told you that?

One of the companies that were helping with the build..they put all three on the flow bench and that was the results they came up with was the nismo ontop as the nismo and hypertune plenum are about the same price so thats not the issue

Ha, I got nothing to prove, have already run n easy 10 second pass with a lot less power then what u are aiming for n u will never get traction.

Runs day in day out with not a single issue 3 years on

U may aswell of just kept your gtr n put in a 2wd switch coz the gtst has all gtr body work, gtr motor but none if the traction advantage

Oh n atleast I'm not scared to drive mine down the strip either. Y build a car then what someone else to run it for u, defeats the purpose

I wouldn't be scared to run it if i was putting a cage in it but as im not going to i would like the best possible quarter that is official as i can get...i built the car because thats what i wanted to do if i wanted a strip monster it would have been that and i would have put a cage in it but i dont its a street car

Turbo modified T88, Par Dog Box, Direct Billet racing clutch, Going e85 Haltech platinum pro Not sure on injectors maybe siemens 2200cc but yea getting a list of what i need and the list keeps going hahah but intercooler and radiator i need to decide on now i have chosen the nismo multi throttle plenum and now all the other bits and pieces BC Coilovers Nashin Brake kit not sure on diff maybe kaaz 1.5way gotta get a good surge tank setup and thinking of the haltech racepak if anyone else has one hopefully with photos so i can check out how others are mounting it??

Im assuming you bought Dean's T88 kit?

Awesome turbo that one, but might be shy your target 600-700awkw.

Yea i spoke to him on fri i went up and seen him 700 no but over 600 maybe 630 should be possible so hope all goes well :) But buying these better parts always leaves room if i ever wanna take it to the next level

    • I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box
    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
