This is probably a repost but I did a quick search and didn't see it.

R34 GTR Z-Tune vs E46 BMW M3CSL vs 997 Porsche 911 vs E90 BMW M5 vs Lamborghini Gallardo

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3...08689&q=skyline

the japanese driver very most respected.....they can control the car when slideways...it just awesome ..... and also the M5 driver is the one of the D1 judge called Keiichi Tsuchiya, if not mistaken....must respected racer in JP...anyways always love to see the japanese option video !!!!

sweet vid! by the looks of it, the Z tune driver might've been holding back a little for most of the race. he seemed to find more speed on the 2nd half of the last lap.

Tsuchiya was the driver of the M5. the Drift King was at it again!

I havent clicked on the link, but if it's the video Im thinking of, the underpowered (relatively) CSL hits the lead right near the end. This holds up traffic when they hit the straight, as the slowest car is at the front. That is how the cars further back could get such a huge speed advantage on the last straight - they were the only ones who could use full power on corner exit. There was no 100hp gain for the Z tune, just traffic for the others. Who knows, the M5 might have won if the CSL didn't block it. It has 500hp and 7 gears afterall.

Or it's a different video.

If he did it would have been a bit pointless.

Nismo's brief was to build a GT-R that could handle a 15 minute track attack session at max attack without going off, so all the ingredients to ensure that the car wouldn't overheat and chuck a wobbly were meant to be there.

I think everyone is taking the race a bit seriously, clearly it's a demonstration done for TV/camera crews.

It's not an indication of their various speeds around the track an M5 can't keep up with a Gallardo or the Z tune.

For relevant times wait till the very end of the clip and the time attack ones are listed in blue.

Lambo: 1:37.537

GTR Z tune 1:37.554

M3 CSL 1:39.938

911 S 1:40.298

M5 1:41.885

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
