R32 weight is 1480kg, R33 1520 and R34 1540(just the plain GTR models)

well according to my hpi mag

but the new hsv GTS commo's(6.0L) do 0-100kmph in 4.9 secs apparently, thats a lil scary for a standard V8

v spec r34 have another 20kgs! i don't know what from but i'm guessing the front air splitter!

yeah under 5 sec to 100kph is pretty good for v8's because imagine the 3rd or 4th gear accelleration!

My uncle has a VT II 250i Manual Clubsport I think it is.

It goes ok does awesome no brake burnouts due to its long first gear but really it doesn't go that hard, first time I drove it I was massively disappointed. I've had a few plays with it and it is rather slow compared to mine.

But its stock, mine isn't.

The LS1's do go pretty damn hard with a few mods. I'm sure Chops's Calais will shock the hell out of a lot of us rwd boys. :)

4wd vs rwd.. well its takes a LOT of power to catch and pass a car that has accelerated fast at low speed even if the 4wd is down 100-150rwkw.

and don't forget average power. Its like comparing a 200rwkw rb20 to a 200rwkw rb25. Or even better a 200rwkw rb25 to a 200rwkw rb30. :)

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
