u do realise that a NA engine has more torque due to the fact it dosent have forced induction to get everything going?

That i do and would work in theory......but i would still like to compare your torque figures with mine.....regardless anything else....

I think Cara should just drop an LS1 into her R34 already... atleast then all this "N/A is the shizzle" talk wouldnt be as nonsense.

[MissR34]

thats if my bitch decides to be good......

Despite being able to immediately impound the car under anti-hoon laws, the driver was allowed to continue on his way. He has been ordered to take his car to a police station tomorrow, where it will be impounded.

"The speed he was travelling at ridiculous.''

Yet they let him continue driving to his appointment ... even when he showed no care for the 160kph+ speeds he was doing? What if he'd killed someone after the cops let him go???

[Krishy]

in the report the old guy even confessed to driving even faster before......he said lucky you didnt catch me before....i was going faster....

I mean seriously WTF is wrong with the police....i bet you if it was a 18 year old kid behind the wheel then he would be behind bars and car either impounded or crushed......talk about the cops always having double standards.....

Mate, I've seen 50+ year olds driving hyundais hooning thru traffic and they get away with it day in and day out.

Altho I did see justice last night at Regency Park. P-plater with mates in his "taxi" Falcon edging me to race him at the Regency Rd lights heading north on South Road. I gave it a quick squirt right up to 70kph (speed limit) ... 10 seconds later they screamed past me at about 100kph. The traffic cop (whom I noted was there earlier when I drove past) on his bike was hiding on the other side of the road, pulled out, gave chase and they got nicked Yeah, I set them up a bit, but they didn't need any encouragement anyway.

how was everyones day?

[Aberax]

how was everyones day?

Same as yesterday really, so-so. Woke up at 11, had breakfast, moved a garden shed, started surfing the forums, watched the chasers war on everything, and played some cod5 coop with a mate. Tomorrow i am back at work, i find that i am rather bored unless i am going something...such as working.

How about you?

[MissR34]

um did washing, ironing, cleaned both cars, did sum weeding out the front, had a doctors appointment

and now sittin on the couch next to floyd the cat

[Damo_R34]

finished off my brothers custom parcel shelf in his AE82, complete with 6x9's

[MissR34]

nice work damo

[scandyflick]

only na nissan engines worth driving imo are v's over 3.5 litres.

u do realise that a NA engine has more torque due to the fact it dosent have forced induction to get everything going?

wut?

[whatsisname]

yes solid lifters, lower emissions levels , and if its a series 2 it has higher torque cams in it. the output goes up to 206kw as well

• RB25DET - twin-cam turbo (T28 Turbo) (245 to 250 hp and 319 N·m)
  
• NEO RB25DET - twin-cam turbo (206 kW (280 PS) @ 6400 rpm, 362 N·m (37.0 kgf·m) @ 3200 rpm
  

________________________________________________________________________________

Released in 1998, the R34-series Skyline engines have a big emphasis on reducing emissions.

The existing RB25DET was reengineered to NEO specs, which apparently produce around one-tenth of the CO, HC and NOx emissions levels allowed under Japan’s 10-15 test mode. Further changes include a ball-bearing turbo, slightly larger intercooler, free-flow exhaust and revised ECU (which allows up to 10 psi boost). revised in late 2000 bringing extra torque (probably through a bit of extra mid-range boost).

Not sure where the RB25DET engine torque figure listed above came from, but it's actually quoted by Nissan as 30.0kgm at 4800rpm - just under 295Nm.

Come again please?

[whatsisname]

If one were to take the RB25DE and RB25DET minus it's turbocharger and compare the torque output, the naturally aspirated RB25DE would indeed make more torque, due to the 10:1 vs. 9:1 compression ratio. Now add the turbocharger back into the equation, where it rightly belongs on the RB25DET, and 230Nm vs. 295Nm tells the story.

Correct, however an N/A 25 will never make more torque than a turbocharged 25. Hence my "what the!?!?!"
