Sam, you already know what I am gonna say :)

[whisper] Oo GTR oO [/whisper]

NB. you have time on your side, test a few, get up close & personal. Probably not a whole lot of 34 gtr's in the country to test but plenty s15 - perhaps the answer lies in that comment ;)

Horus... BNR34!!! NOOOOOOOT THE S15!!!

id take a R34 GTT and save on insurence & worry and still have lots of money left for mods... the GTT with a C-WEST kit and ADVAN MODEL 5 rims looks sweet :)

up to you... ;) bye bye

fnck that, it between gtr and s15. if he wanteda gtt it would have been between gtt and s15. besides if your losing awd, may aswell get an s15. could go full dorift and get s15 front on a s14, dont see that combo too much.

Have power restrictions come in somewhere in Aus? I heard whispers they are contemplating doing it here in SA :) ..... how in hell would they determine your power though???

/imagines

Copper: Excuse me sir, but I think your car has over xxxkw power - here have a canary

Driver: wtf how can you have any idea how much power it has?

Copper: I don't need to KNOW son, I think, therefore I AM .... muahahahahahaha you have 12 hours to reduce your power output, have the car on the police dyno and approved by the Nazi vehicle testing centre. Oh and here's a $500 fine 'cos I think you might be a hoon and would do heaps of burnouts and drag people everywhere you go.

Driver: /sells nice car and buys a $300 rust-bomb-no-brakes datto cos you get hassled less by the cops.

sam... jus play the guilt trip... give your dad shit for buying the merc. "You know dad you could have bought an jag, but noooooo u had to buy a merc, what made you come up with that decision?"

I dunno, jus get the GTR already, you know u want it, we all know you want it. If you're worried about hassles, buy a bomb to take to dodgy places, like a 1989 R32 GTSt. If you loose a drag, go home, get your GTR, and beat the mofo down.

sam engine wise and brake wise i'd have to say the skyline wins in those aspects. Even the 34 gt-t has better brakes, the engines speak for themselves. The sr20 in my opinion is one of the best four cylinder engines around although its not as tough as the rb engines. Watch high perfromance imports 3,4,5 and i think 6 coz they modify a 34 gt-t with a xaust, cooler, avc-r, boost and one the dynos just from that they are reaching 200rw kw's!

Ofcourse a gtr is better than gts-t but also make sure you think of the money you will save, and how worried you would be everytime you park the gtr and how pissed u'd be if it got keyed of something.

Just listen to the little man inside you and he'll tell you what to do!

my little mans an idiot! hehe

    • Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.
    • Tow a boat... people won't know wtf is going on 🤣 
    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
