Have you guys ever dragged a VZ Executive on a 3.08 diff, headers, hi-flows......... custom tuned (not by a tuner who just does it quickly in 1 day). They will eat a skyline for breakfast (if tweaked properly - not even near potential).
Your right alloytechs are good above 4k .......... tune them up (not avg tune).......... they flog a sv6.........
Mines strong off the line, once u get out of the 1600rpm (spark advance -1's) ....... (which I have for fuel econ) ......... the car plants into the road and takes off...... When I hit my 4000 range the torque jumps like 3-5% instantly on mine......... it's just like a turbo, suddenly engine free immediate pull even when going fast up the range.
I raced a few skylines, mostly N/A........ flog em everytime. One I come across was a R34T? ....... white, better looking them most, it had a mad exhaust, obviously all custom seemed like it was turbo......... he thought he'd be a smart arse........ so we didn't really drag, I just stayed in first gear and kept crusing up n then he decided to plant it......... second later I was gone....... smoked him. I think alot of skyline owners dont know about the above 4000rpm on alloytechs.
I respect skylines tho as u can do them up immensly....... but just like alot of commondore owners.......... they dont and hence they get wipped.
By now, most know the alloytech engine has been deemed a "torque monster".
PS. Funny thing with the turbo skyline i dragged, normally even tuned i thought it'd get me......... but that day i decided to adjust my ve tables, optimal engine torque and air demand for torque........... and pumped up my 4-6k rpm range......... and it seriously even stunned me how quickly i owned that guys face.
Alloytechs are very explosive, lots of fun tuning them............ as long as keep at it, u turn like a slug into a v8 effect off the line into a turbo feel above 4k rpm.
Personally I'm waiting for the SV6's to come out with direct injection.......... they'll be lots of fun in the coming years.
