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.

man i reckon it should be like that! if holden made the SS more powerful but more heavier tough luck to them :P. look at the classes of both cars:

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.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
