It would be an interesting contest but i reakon that the skyline would have better final drive ratio than the commondore, giving it more acceleration. With the same, power in a lighter car, with better gear ratios i think the skyline would do it. But, obviously the commondore i would expect to have a fare bit more torque so as i said , it would be an interesting race.

It would be torque Vs ratios!

The VT will get a better launch thanks to an auto but if its a decent drag strip where you can go for at least 400m or longer, the GT-T will own the VT as its a good 300kg lighter.

Mind you 300rwkw VT Auto thats N/A is pretty hardcore.

theres a tone of factors. what mods to the diff etc of the VT? is it a series 1 or 2. is the transmission been kitted or anything? what tyres are they running?

what time would a 300rwkw r34 run?

oh and autos run quicker and more consitent times than a manual. :laugh:

this would a very close race.

i can tell u guys now that the ls1 is going to be pumping 300rw/kw just by doing exhaust alone (my mates dad spent $3500 on extractors alone on his vt series 2 and the rest of the exhaust and got 300rw/kw) remember in europe and US ls1's come with 400bhp from the factory :)

and yes i would like to know what a 300rw/kw gtt would run

you sure?

ive seen alot of LS1's get 300rwhp from exhaust/intake/mafless tune, but not 300rwkw

hmmm maybe i remembered incorrectly. with the LS1 unlock theres ure 300+rw/kw(would be either europes or US's ecu map) right there. either way its shit cheap to get big power figures out of the ls1's

Edited by yoshimitsu9
also aussie ls1s are 5.7L compared to the yank 4.8L or whatever it is...

with an ls1 all you need is extractor exhaust intake and tune and youve got 250+rwkw easy as. not bad for $3k mods or so.

The problem with the Aussie Ls1's are the tune. Get a good tune, extractors and twin 2.5 exhaust and a decent OTR intake and you'll be pushing 250rwkw, good easy bolt on mods. Injectors won't give you anymore power. With cam will make you around 280rwkw.

    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
