I think it's ridiculous. What the hell is the point of all that power? If you want to see big power go look at industrial trucks/tractors, highway trains, jet engines- friggen rocket ships for f*cks sake!

What i like to see is fast lap times, balance, massive traction, an ALL-rounder.

Making massive power in a mass produced engine is great, but it's a waste- WE get it. We've flown to the moon, and sent satellites to Mars. Mankind has made more than 2041kw. Many a time.

Move on.

Its all about the application...sure its not going to be a suitable setup for track...since apparently thats what you like to see...but for other applications like drag it might actually work really well...and its all about showcasing what you can do with a certain engine/setup...so to call it ridiculous is rather narrowminded...

GAS Motorsport got theirs to 1999* horses I believe... Pretty impressive seeing as how we haven't had one single jap engine to over engineer for the last 15 years unlike the yanks :)

*In an engine testing facility, not in the car.

Still, great engine... thanks for trying to start yet another turf war :)

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
