as stated in topic.

how many rwk's would a r33 gtst need to make in order to be on par, or slightly better than a holden vy ss with 300 rwk?

i ask this because the 1/4 mile calcs dont quite add up.

would like some real answers

(both cars with equal suspension mods and tyres. no variables )

cheers guys :thumbsup:

300rwkw VY ? or 300kw HSV factory version?

If its the factory 300kw motor version then you need about 175rwkw (in the real world*) to keep up maybe beat it by a nose, both cars driven reasonably well.

300rwkw VY is probably around 230rwkw-ish. Depends on a few other things as well like gearing.

* by real world I mean that the car is making this power on the road as well as the dyno, bonnet 'down' dyno numbers.

i dont think a 175rwkw would be a 300kw vy ss

standard quarter times for my bosses senator was 13.7 last time i looked it up which is the 298kw version

skyline with 175 which is basically an exhaust and about 10psi i think would lose

not by much tho

this is a good thread to keep on the go.

I have a R33 gts rb25det conversion with low diff ratio, FMIC, pod 3" exaust BOV etc n i was wondering if i'd beat my miss's brother's VZ SSV V8 ute which just has basic exaust mods...? wat we think?

    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
    • Appreciate everything guys. I did go ahead and get an alignment... most of my complains are solved. Car is not perfect, but it's good enough. If I notice uneven tire wear or anything I'll just take everything back to stock.  Thanks again!
    • They still have not shipped the 550cc injectors as they weren't in stock, so in theory I could ask to get the 440cc ones instead, if those work better in my scenario. They're the same price so really shouldn't be an issue. Unfortunately I am not so knowledgeable in most parts of tuning so I wasn't sure what's best to choose between the two. 440cc ones are the lowest they have (not in stock, but available to buy nonetheless).
