guys please. dont kid your self. 255 clubby yes we have no trouble taking them. i must admit from driving one they are bloody powerful.

now, if we say we shit all over GTS's !!? i do not think so, especially after 3rd?. cos they will pull away until around 260large!

this is the VX model im talking bout.

with good drivers and 6 cogs they will pull from the start to end.

they are great car the GTS.

dont believe me?, try race one

anyone eles agree with me on this?

Settle Down buddy,,,your comparisions are un-just,,,,My bosses SS wouldn't ever get near me in my old standard form and neither does my next-doors one. 1375 kilo's to almost 1500,,,Not fair,,,hows about a 300KW version ,,that would be more interesting.

As for compairing a GTR against any HSV,,,,Only if the Nations-Cup Monaro was sold for street use and then it would suffer against variable 4wd. Notice the new adventur is using the same style of 4wd as a GTR,,,Interesting.

Skyline GTS, GTS-T/GT-T, GTR

Commy S (supercharged 6), SS, GTS.

dunno why i bother skyline is the best anyhow **** it.

My friend with a 92' 180sx, minor mods. only making 143 RWKW and had a few problems at the time. he pulled up to an older guy in a 2003 Clubsport(auto) and the guy had his wife in the car. they both took off normally and then the guy just booted it and so did andy. they were equal untill they backed off. next set of lights the guys looked rather dissappointed and his wife looked rather annoyed :D

not the best place to test out speedand quickness,but you just get caught up in the moment I guess.

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it

      Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days

      RB25 Drama's

      By Julsmadrid · Posted

      Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By oxisau · Posted

      I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
