    Beat them at what ?? street, track, drags ?

    Not really comparing apples with apples but your GTT is more than capable or at least very close to it and it all depends on budget. I don't have no ever driven a 4wd / awd car but from reading bang for your buck they are hard to beat so hazard a guess you'll have to spend 'more' on the gtt to be the same to compensate for 1) new tech and 2) rwd vs awd

    There are a number of threads in the motorsport section and projects and builds section where specifically gtt's but other rwd skylines have been developed to the point where they'd match evo's and the like so take what you can from those also.

    You have enough power so it comes down to :

    Driver skills / seat time

    Brakes

    Suspension

    Tyres

    Weight

    Work out your budget and get the 'best' you can get of each of those as you go and it'll go a long way to where you want to be

     

     

    awesome man, looking more in the roll racing rather then track, driving an Evo before i definitely know that around a track they have the upper hand ! but down the straights they are still quite competitive @bcozican

    to be honest Ive never had stock cams always had poncams straight off ...  but if you look at all the results poncams on average increase your torque a bit and mid / top power a bit and move the curve to the right just a bit

     

    I say bit ... because every car engine is a little different

     

    Sorry don't know how to best do it 'legally' as Ive always had straight through pipes but Id say taking your muffler off is one of the least legal ways. By my thinking maybe just rotational Idle ... but it will just be dampened a bit compared to not running a muffler. Still get lumpy etc but nothing is actually illegal especially if  you still come under the legal DB reading.

    one of the end goals as well is trying to figure out ways these GTT skylines can beat your 280kw Evos, before i make a new thread any sort of suggestions ? i use to have an Evo and got the right offer for it so i chose to give a skyline a go but seems to struggle to beat 300kw Evos ?

     

    thanks @bcozican

    Sidepipe makes it louder and crisp but idle it idle if your going to run a muffler etc its always going to be toned down

     

    Ive run 500-550 rwhp on rb25s with poncams both with and without springs. Mose well go springs if you can

    what did you find the difference to be from stock cams to poncams ? and whats the most 'legal' looking way to get them to sound more aggressive, simply removing the muffler ? 

     

    thanks heaps

  4. PON CAMS V CAMTECH 272

    Hey guys,

    Hoping someone can point me in the right direction with either or link or shedding some light on my next modification. I am looking at purchasing Cams for my R34 GTT already pushing 330RWKW, can any one let me know what the cons and pros are going with Tomei drop ins 260 as oppose to the Camtech 272. My 34 has the following modifications:

     1000cc Bosch Injectors

    - Walbro 460 Fuel Pump

    - Full Turbo Back Exhaust 3 inch

    - Custom Dump pipe

    - Garret 3076 Turbocharger

    - Power FC ECU tuned on E85 ( UniGroup Tune)

    - Greddy Electronic Boost Controller

    - Tomei Head Gasket

    - Screamer pipe

    Would be good to get some ideas on what would be best for my setup and why as well as knowing which one would sound better on idle :P which is just a bonus.

     

    Thanks peeps.

  5. rear diffuser , intake exhaust temps on the mfd the cluster looking a bit more tighter etc. I would also be concerned 140,000+ kms ( genuine or not ) is a 16 year old car many things will start needing to be fixed up but that just my opinion everyone is different i guess.

    thanks for that mate ofcourse all is being considered - happy to see everyone elses input now i need to get as much opinion before i bring one back this saturday !!

  6. Needs more single. :no:

    Looks honest enough. Personally I don't like white 34's but if you do it could be a good thing. Would be worth having a look if its close to home. Not sure how much it would cost to ruin it with a single turbo, however.

    looks better then the grey one but i will see both and see which one is better - and no lol i wouldnt single turbo it - i prefer to keep it twin just upgrade them later

  7. I believe the points I've made here are relevant rather than typical "twin is better than single cos there 2 of em brahh". Only two reasons one goes single turbo on a GTR.. that's if the engine went bang or the turbos themselves went bang. I'm no expert with skylines but i'm fairly sure there's a few kits out there direct aftermarket bolt on twins that don't sit up against the rocker cover. Anyway regarding the OP's first question that car is in doubt not worth flying a state away and back to see it, I mean come on man look at it.. swede / coon / tryhard / top bloke ect not to mention cop magnet and a stock motor with the hefty price tag of $43k.. surprised no one on here can call it not worth it compared to some others for another 3-5k?

    price was negotiated with the one in vic to quite a reasonable price - have a few good mechanic friends up in vic who checked the car out for me all looks good - confirmed that the front has not been in an accident after thoroughly looking at it - still thinking of flying up since all seems well drives well and its stock which is what i initially was looking for - if theres some 3k more then point it my way and ill check it out asap !

    lol other then that stil enjoying the single v twin discsussion :)
