Well on paper there is more torque in a GTR - if yer talking 33 GTR then specs are:

Skyline R33 GT-R:

RB26DETT 2569cc DOHC 24 valve EFI Straight 6 Twin Turbo 208kw @ 6800rpm 367nm @ 4400rpm 8000rpm 1530 kg 5.30 seconds 13.30 seconds

Skyline R34:

25GT-Turbo RB25DET 2498cc NEO DOHC 24 valve EFI Straight 6 Turbo 206kw @ 6400rpm 343nm @ 3200rpm 7000rpm 1410 kg 6.00 seconds 14.20 seconds

So it will cost whatever is needed to decrease the 1/4 mile time to 13.3 secs. [assuming both stock].

Perhaps $1-2K spent on the right mods could get you into the mid-low 13's [full exhaust, intake, boost, etc]. look at rev210, he has recorded a 13.3 with standard turbo and cooler [r33gtst]. You would still have money left over...from not buying the GTR.

Of course the GTR is still a GTR!

gave a 2000 model WRX on 17 PSI a go put it this way i wasnt full throttle and i was beating him 1 car length i could let go and back off and then give it again and i was by his door that was on half throttle mines stock running standard boost 10 psi 5 pounds per turbo he had an advantage on boost but obviously not enough , he couldnt belive what boost i was running :burnout: :D

ive smoked plenty rex's standing start,the 3 times ive come up next to sti's standing start the passed be like i was stuck in reverse tho i smoked the bags a bit of the start, they all modded i suspect,just cant launch like them as for a gtr theyd have no F@#$ing hope!,anyhows we have performance history rex drivers have a subaru leone with a steroid shot

yes blk / std kit - but you wouldnt have seen it on chapel!

heathcote is June first - only a couple more weeks on a sunday, check the Vic - events section. Would be good to get a few 34's down there ;-)

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
