The only thing That would come ANYWHERE NEAR the VR is a Z-tune..

Even then, it would still get is arse handed to it..

or.. would it?

Yes the GTR has titanium this.. bollocks that.. electronic jizz control..

But the Z-tune is still pretty hardcore!..

I mean Nimso poured 5mm of Carbon fiber on the floor plan to stiffen it it..

it uses a the GT500 race engine..

Carbon fiber pannels all round..

10.04 or something like that quarter mile..

Same power.. not sure about torque..

I think the Z-tune is ligher..

The gear changes wont be as quick in the Z-tune as in the GTR.. but.. could a Z-tune make up for this?

hmm.. discuss.. im curious..

I am almost sure, I think perhaps if the work to upgrade the engine RB26DETT much better than the engine VR38DETT! !

Because LINE ENGINE IS BETTER FROM V ENGINE !!!!!!!!!

In what way?? Have you seen someone modify the VR38 yet??

And what makes you say an inline motor is better than a V engine??

A 'V' engine is much stronger and stiffer than an inline engine...

Can you back up your comments with facts???

It be appreciated muchly from you.... :thumbsup:

The unfortunately reality is that the inline 6 has probably had its day. The packaging benefits of the V6 makes them a better proposition for the run of the mill car companies - particularly those running transverse installations. Even in longitudinal ones the gains are there in making the car easier to engineer for crash worthiness.

But to defend the old inline six (Which I have a soft spot for) they have the following advantages over their bent up brethren:

* Inherent first and second order balance - the V6's either run funny vee angles or need an extra balance shaft.

* Easier packaging when you turbo charge the motor.

* More room on the axhaust side which allows better cooling for the turbo chargers etc.

* Cheaper head castings as you only need two cam shafts & on head.

* They sound much nicer.

how easy would it be to take out the TT setup and throw in a, lets say T51R SPL onto an engine like that (VR)? Maybe compare it to a 300zx engine...I have never had experience with that...is there enough space...how does it all compare to throwing a t51r on a 26 ?

================================================================

I have no experience with the engine VR38DETT to you that expectation proved largely true! !

Despite the dramatic difference in STROKER! !

But in terms of the experience of the RB20DET and RB25DET and RB26DETT is better in all respects use or promotion or maintenance or endurance is much better too! ! !

There is no engine V6 6 Slander advantage proved successful only relatively Tourqu be a little better and I say this advantage! ! !

But respects mentioned above inline much better health and days will prove myself! ! Despite the size difference stroker !!!!!!!

NOTE: inline engine only for the 6 slander !! V ENGINE GOOD ON THE V8 ONLY !! OR MORE!!!

Thanks ALL .[/b][/size] :yes:

What race engine are you referring to?

If it's the GT500 from SuperGT, then your probably wrong, cause they have been using a V engine in these for many years in the 350Z and a few seasons in the R34's before that.

If it's the GT500 engine from way back when the R34's first came out( In JGTC), then that's a pretty old engine, and I'd still take the VR over it any day.

the z-tune costs a lot more and will be a collectors item. The R35 will be mass produced. If I was to chose b/w to two, Id go the z-tune.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
