Chaser as well :D twin turbo 2.5L

hmmm wait a sec.. same engine as soarer.. are soarer's faster then r33's in stock form?

Same engine maybe, but the soarer is heavier... On power to weight it would go:

Chaser at 206kw in 1480kg-ish = 139kw/tonne

Skyline R33 at 185kw in 1360kg-ish = 136kw/tonne

Soarer at 206kw in 1560kg-ish = 132kw/tonne

Not that I'm suggesting that power to weight is the only factor that influences acceleration...

Hmmm.....Chaser for sure......

Does anyone Thought about the Tourqe from the TT motor should be significantly hight at Low reves than the R33...

Never really driven a chaser though... :D

Dunno about that - I've always thought the 1JZ twin turbo to be slightly laggy... Although that experience is from a 16 year old Supra. The late model single turbo VVTi 1JZGTE is meant to be far better down low.

chaser. if the skyline was manual it b close i think especially if you got a good launch (good tyres)...

Damn....i though a Manual R33 could keep up with it, given that the chaser is Auto, I know there good..but never though that good.

I have Owned Both a 1997 Series II R33 GTST and a 1997 Toyota JZX100 Chaser Auto.

The Auto Chasers Maul Manual and Auto skylines with up to 200 rwkw.

I had a Catback exhaust on the Chaser and a K&N Pod filter and with the auto ran a 13.2.

On the street, most of my mates 200 rwkw Skylines got dusted. They develop a shitload more torque than the RB25, even More than a Standard RB26.

Beautiful car - get a Manual one though, so so much better and they can pull 13s with no mods whatsoever.

Just to remind you - a JZX90 - Pre 96 Model with the Old 1JZ would be on Par with an Auto R33 - after basic mods though would eat a 33.

JZX100s Came with a Different Motor alltogether - Single Turbo 1JZ VVTi.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
