Why would I want to do that I want to run 10's not high 11's to low 12's Yeah I agree funny how the thread has turned out as my 1st reply was to a comment about GTR not being beat and it seems that you GTR guys can't handle the idea of a gtst beating a GTR and why you don't see gtst's being compared to those performance cars is because gtst drivers don't have the ego that gtr drivers do and I bet every time a comparision is made it's by a GTR driver nothing like blowing you own whistle

For sure the moral of the story is buy a highly modded GTST for $30k and run 11's no other expenses unless you really think the rear wing cost $10k hahaha yep just because i'm using a GTR head in the new set up means I want my car to be a GTR the times and power quoted were all done with the RB25det with the mods that came with the car hahaha marginally quicker you really think i'd change a 330rwkw set up to be only marginally quicker, I'm changing to a RB30/26 with bigger turbo, bigger cams pretty well bigger everything so I can run 10's and because I bought the car with mods I was able to sell them and will get into the new set up for a fraction of the price as to what it would of cost me had I started with the same lightly modded GTR I could of bought for $30k So I'd say the moral the story is I will end up with a 10 second 1996 GTST for my $40k+ and be one of the fastest GTST's in Australia and you'll have your GTR hahaha I'm not saying GTST's are better cars all I'm doing is pointing out that bang for buck the GTR is not everyones cup of tea and as drags are what I choose for my car the GTST is better value to get what I want out of it

true true we are all Skylines at the end of the day and I'm sure we're all a bit one sided as to what we own is better for what we do with it, I guess its just part of being proud of our own cars

no no sorry I know it seems I'm anti GTR I'm really not, I love GTR's though they are not for me its the attitude of some GTR drivers that upset me not the car I'm even using a GTR head on my new set up hahaha and all I meant by the above comment was that there is really no comparision in my opinion between a modded GTST, well as modded as mine is and a stock GTR its not fair to the GTR to even compare

hahaha yep your right a modified GTST is nothing like a stock GTR, The GTST is much faster, better value and all in all more fun

Sorry I missed the STOCK part in your first quote I have no problem with the fact that a stock GTR is good from factory but its a far cry from what you said in the 1st post I replied to You know of a 8 second XF falcon?? hahaha thats great but what the f*ck has it got to do with what you posted I don't need to take a chill pill I just get sick of how one sided some people are and kid themselves that there GTR can not be beaten

No I chose not to buy a GTR as imo for low to mid $30k I was able to be a very quick highly modded 1996 GTST, I did look at a few lightly modded GTR's that were forsale for the same $$ but value wise the GTST was miles ahead of the GTR's in performance and value as I would of had to spend at least another $10k on the GTR to have made it maybe as fast as the GTST is I've ran 11.7 @ 128mph in a GTST what have you run? or have you and meshmesh raced a few boy racers on the street and come to the opinion the GTR can not be beat hahaha don't make me laugh I run exactly the same set up on the street as I do at the drags and trust me when I tell you I have no problem beating most GTR's on the road or the strip, I know there are GTR's and even other GTST's that are quicker then me but I was replying to meshmesh's blanket statement of Did he mention stock or out of factory, NO he didn't hahaha the big deal is I wasn't talking about any of the cars you mentioned, I was talking about other imports I have mates in anything from a S15 to a R32-R33 gtst that will happily beat your unbeatable stock GTR at the strip or on the road

Next time you visit Sydney come to the drags and I'll line you up against a few cars that will prove you dead wrong, its attitudes like this that give me the f*cking sh*ts with GTR drivers sure they're a great car but get over yourself they can be beat and dare I say it easily beat by a well set up gtst even

and its still using standard injectors and cams?

I'm thinking a 200 shot for the wifes falcon wagon should go well with the nitto's for a 12 second pass, might be fun as I can still race while I'm building the car

yep mate i've heard of a lot of people running 265's but it will all come down to if they have the same offset as you in whether it would be the same for them

275's wont fit without negative camber I'm 100% sure and if the offset is already a touch wide the will stick outside the gaurds with negative camber

I've got nothing but will be more then happy to help with display or anything on the day

:bananaman bwahahaha

yeah the standard box wont be up to the new power figure so rather then let it hold me back (or blow it up and waste $$) I thought I'd change it now so I can sell it Yeah at this point its looking like an auto is the best way to go $$ wise

Sadly I'd say it will take most of the year before I'm back mate, motor should be finished in the next month or so but then I have to get a gear box and ecu

because people are full of shit and thats coming from a someone that HAS ran a few 11 sec passes with excuses and f*ck all traction as to why they weren't high 10 sec passes, but I would rather not race then claim a time the car hasn't done or ever call my car a 10 sec car before it does run a few 10 sec passes thats if It ever does And I don't agree with the fact that a power figure can tell us what a car is capable of as a peak power figure doesn't mean sh*t Though its great of Harun to be so open with everyone with his setup and power figures

Bobbo

yep the RWD part sucks, its very unfair to them

He's got a couple of asian tuners over here for 2 weeks, though I think they may be coming back later in the year

UAS bought them off/through CRD who bought them off CNC who hasn't had any in stock for 3-4 months and isn't planning on importing any more in the near future

Judds tuners from what I hear are very good with the F-con and F-con pro and I'd say they'd be a hell of a lot cheaper then BD4's

Benm wake up to yourself with the fact of Nitto's will instantly make your car quick, what about suspension? camber? clutch? useable power? etc etc and last but not least the driver Trust me when I say just by using nittos it will help a little but if the car isn't set up right or driver isn't good enough they wont help to much at all as all I ever did was a 1.97 60ft at full power with nittos which sucks
