if his car is hard tuned....does that make mine a soft cock? Surely im right if things are all back to front these days.

Hey shane...dont go with your biased few on hard tuned gtr's and gtst's....i reckon they do compare and i think ours is proof of that...when its got its eye of the tiger going :P haha.

urs is a stripped out track car biatch, can we compare urs against, say giants? :huh:

P.S can i "borrow" ur dry sump setup? :happy:

if you want...on the national giants only a sec quicker and 2 on sprint...but next time we hit the track...we should be just as quick if not quicker....but i admit giants car is a very well setup beast.

No...the dry sump is MINE! Get your own. I can show you how to fit it up good and proper.

You will love the new 26/30's soon to be built...sporting t04z and a few other bits.

And the new gearset going into the box oh and autronic.

Series II,

You belong on boostcruising.com :)

Your replie's hurt my brain everytime i read them, and u ramble on about rubbish in ur posts.

Also, a 'hard tuned' gtst just doesnt compare to a 'hard tuned' gtr :laugh:

My GTST would eat most hard tuned GTR's. I'm running low 7's now.....on street tyres.

If you tastefully modify a GTSt for a track purpose instead of chasing XXXrwkw, you should be fine and have a ball. Hell, Jason has been doing it for years and has been quicker than most...

Here here. Skylines are pretty tough things, if you keep them very well maintained spend some dollars on suspension, brakes and cooling rather than chasing those big rwkw that you can't use on the street anyway, you can have fun thrashing around the track, down the quarter and at the skidpan without fear. I have only had a skyline fail me once and that was after picking it up from getting a full respray, for some reason the AFM decided to pack it in. . . . nothing really. I have done numerous trackdays at QR and Darlington Park, plenty of runs at willowbank and a few days on the skidpan and LVMA at Mt Cotton and soon Gympie, and have never had a problem.

Don't get me wrong I would love some big hp, then I could have some real fun I am sure, but then I am sure I would spend a lot more time off the road too as more hp means more stress on the engine and drivetrain and an inevitable failure. If you love driving you skyline then will be addicted after only one lap! Its great fun :happy: I highly recommend giving it a go.

And correction. . . . I am slow. . . .

I'm saving up for a parachute b4 I even attempt to hit the drag strip

It costs too much for me to go to Willowbank anyway....coz my traction level is so high it actually reverse rotates the earth on it's axis which turns back time. This is how I am able to run such quick times. The only downfall is that due to my high levels of traction, I tear up the bitumen and this has to replaced at my expense. If only I could find another way...hmmm.

Hey Andy, how did the new clutch go on that last 2 you pulled...she still running sweet. You know it's an NPC rebuild so Shane might get jealous that it didn't explode, causing your car to be written off in the process.

    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work. 
    • Potentially some interesting data for some of you here; Hank Iroz from Iroz Motorsport testing a new Xona Rotor 5964S on a Audi RS3 2.5L DAZA motor. https://facebook.com/share/p/14EU18MyDqZ/ Cliff Notes: Turbo has the new Xona XRE compressor aero with an X4C compressor cover, reportedly 0.64 rear housing. 900whp (670kw) @ 37psi, 170k shaft speed, motor is making 2bar (29psi) boost by roughly 3800rpm, 500lbft (670nm) torque by 3500rpm. They overlaid a stock RS3 on USA 91 fuel (red), and a "Stage 2" RS3 on E85 (yellow), and this 5964S (blue) - the 5964S isn't losing any ground to either. Apparently out-flowing their prior tests with a Xona 8264S (green), and this 5964S (white) also has a smaller A/R than that did.
