So value wise we're talking around $15K for a nice looking low 13s car.

I suppose that's pretty good value right?

Can anyone think of better bang for your buck?

I think a stockish supra will run a 13s 1/4 but you're looking at what $20K for a decent one.

If you just want a car to run low 13's / high 12's then you can spend less on another make for $15k. You just don't get the overall package that a skyline offers.

Hmmm so for interests sake, what else could you get/mod for $15K that would do those times?

RX7, Soarer, maybe Galant VR4...?

ive managed 0 to 100 in 4.88 with good 255s and usual mods 172rwkw

You suck !

I managed 5.08 or something like that on the rev/speed/metre with 194rwkws.

wanted badly to crack the 5.00 but couldn't do it.

Now on 239rwkws, tried again.....time for a new clutch ! Haha :)

Sheeeeeet, good work though.

Just bought a 32 gtr with 250kw....i can change between 4wd/2wd so what will be quicker down the qtr mile???

Considering the GTR decides when 4/2wd is needed, i thought's be best to leave 4wd for sure!

So for take off it will be 4wd, then it will be 2wd drive later on anyway, decided by the car, not you. :)

ran my car at jambo, only had 2 runs, best being 12.8 @ 112. with 1.9 60ft

i cant see how im gona reach 116 mph? and 11s? if i get my 60fts down to say 1.7, is the rest just in quick gear changing?

also 2rismo if your still there, wat tyre presure do u recomend on et streets? and do they like big skids? also what did u find best revs to launch at?

i wana push my car to the best it will do, i no practice makes perfect but a little advise will help:)

What other mods?

An R33 with fuel pump, cooler, turbo back exhaust, button clutch and standard ECU making 205rwkw ran a 13.1 on street tires.

LTHLRB I think where his plates.

Depends on the driver, depends on your tires etc..

There are a million different variables that could effect that time.

Yep thats me :)

the mods were

Turbo back exhaust, GTR cooler, Turbosmart boost controller, Apexi pod, STOCK ENGINE MANAGMENT SYSTEM AND INJECTORS AND AFM, Tomeii fuel pump, Exedy clutch, $50 tyres i baught 2nd hand from a tyre joint to pass rwc, a very good driver, Tein suspension (drift suspension, So stiff ass end)

Any questions about me making 205rwkw just ask away :) its possible to make 200kw on stock ecu.. i have done it before

Car also went 1.9 60 footer and 105mph

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
