Anyone see GT N1K Skyline?

[Steve]

The car wasn't designed for 1/4miles, I doubt you'd add 200kgs of stereo equipment if you want to go fast:p Besides I didn't see you racing at Drag Combat;)

would you add a few hundred rwkw if you wanted to go slow

Drag, bah, so passe, I like it sideways baby yeah!

besides, I dont think my 7kg rear springs would help much in that department, or my 235 tyres on 10" rims.

Haha, I've got 10kg/mm and I've tried drag racing, now I have something else to blame other than my own ability;)

Hot car.

Hot chicks in there too. Can someone scan the best of models article?

So gotta ask yourself, would you sooner have another R34 GTR (very tasty), or

A one of a kind skyline that puts down enough power to stop all over that GTR?

.

Sooner have R34 GTR no question.

Stock GTR would hose it in dry conditions not to mention wet with all that extra weight and aerodynamic drag a widebody would produce and that's without factoring cornering ability into it.

But park cars side by side in Murray st not many would notice the GTR.

Cars are a bad investment at the best of times

You also have to ask yourself when I sell in say 3 years time which car would be worth more AND easier to sell. The GTR would be worth say $45k that GTS substantially less.

Sure it's great to have a one off but there are disadvantages as well.

Some goose rear ends you and you have to source body panels. Car repair maybe takes 6 months not 6 weeks (guess only)

Time for sale 10 people looking for GTR's compared to 1 looking for an oddball car.

I admire anyone who has the guts to build a car such as this and in this case it is a brilliant example but it's also one of the fastest ways to do your dough this side of the high rollers room at the Casino

stock gtr is quick, but not THAT quick. If you didnt want to loose money on a car, you would have to buy the cheapest POS you could find.

It is difficult to sell a unique car though, but that is part of owning one - if that is what you want. good with the bad.

Is N1K quick? No one knows

Can't see it doing low 13's or maybe 12's with all that gear unless someone can show a timeslip

Do you think it would weigh more than a ford XR6, or a GTS commodore? I doubt it, but its pumping out a shit load more.

True no one knows how quick, but still, slower than 12 second 1/4? I find it hard to beleive.

[R34]

XR6 with turbo only manages 14's

GTS stock I read does high 13's to 14 depending on the day and tester.

I would be very suprised if that car weighing close to commodore more power less torque and traction problems could put down a 12.

Love to see it do it and prove me wrong though.

Anyway that's enough from me .If we all looked for the same thing from a car it would be a boring car scene

The weight analagy was for weight/power comparison.
