Where's the Power?????

[R34]

Well the Rex is run in and all I can say is where's the power?

First time over 4000rpm was a disappointment.

These little cars go pretty hard but not if you're used to Skyline power.

Guess I'm gunna have to address this problem

Cheers

ahhaha, that's an easy fix, just buy a skyline.. you won't have this "power" problem :uh-huh:

The Rex's are know for bolting hard then running out of puff, this can be rectified with some tweaks, but remember that the gearboxes aren't as strong as the Skylines, so not too much power.

So it appears that the dark side isn't sunny after all.

See'ya:burnout:

Sunny enough though

It goes dam hard in the mid range just got to work on the top end.

Won't go radical enough to need a heavy clutch though

The dark cloud does have a silver lining. I'm sure with a few minor mods you will have a much more powerful car. Just last week at the 'plex I was getting my arse kicked by STI's pulling 13.1's, quite depressing when you think you own a tough skyline to seen the back end of so many REX's.

We'll have to get better aquainted with your 'pretty' blue beast sometime in the very near future. I gotta say it does look good and it sounds like it fits your requirements well.

Knowing you you'll have a bayside blue R34GTR in the driveway in a couple of years anyway, the rex is a pretty good stop gap until then

You're a mind reader Ryan:)

If it's the new bug eyed version have you fitted the twin headlight conversion kit yet ? Looks cool and if looks count then it has to be worth something down the quarter:D

There is so much out there for the Rex I think it's a matter of what combo is going to work?

The STI lights are way too expensive.

Had a set of eyelids fitted instead...looks so much better another WRX driver almost pranged his car on the freeway trying to get a better look

[Pva_Glue]

If you have black skyline... electrical tape gives same eye lid look! :lol:

cheers

Only work on a NA Skyline Joe

Turbo cars go fast enough to blow the tape off;)
