Hey,

Is there anyone that knows any 0-100 times for these non turbos, R33 manual, R34 manual & auto, cant find them anywhere.

I am purchasing one of these in the upcoming weeks and interested in the times.

thanks :thumbsup:

So basically the r33 manual is faster than a r34 auto, true?

thanks

Yes..

But by the time you reach 100km/h in an NA your going to go grey.. so dont bother counting and you wont feel bad about how slow it is =]

Life isn't a straight line.. its all about the twisties :thumbsup:

thanks for the help, went out today and bought a two tone 33 S1 manual coupe

Post pics up in the "Whos got the best looking NA Skyline" floating around..

Looking forward to seeing it..

Im intreeged by two tone.. IT did very well in the states.. Im curious to see if it kicks off here..

Only pics i have at the moment are my display and there are some still on carpoint.com i think, i collect it in a couple of weeks, just waiting for compliance etc, but will post pics after i pick it up

NA Auto 34's are painfully slow, I ran a faster 1/4 mile in my stock VN Commodore

Funny you should say that as HPI tested a stock R34 25GT and a VX commodore and the 34 came out on top with both straight line speed and the twisties.

maybe there was something wrong with the 34 you drove as I owned a VN and I think my family spec 34 would have more get up and go then my VN.

Was your VN manual or wasnt it stock?

I ran a 16.32 @83mph in my stock auto VN when it was 15years old with 180000kms on the odo (only had 2 runs)

The best i could manage in my NA auto R34 Sedan was a 16.96 @82mph (9 runs, all within .2sec of each other)

Both cars had stock engines, ~3/4 tank of fuel, full stereo and I am a rather large lad

That said, I still know which car I'd rather be driving :P

You'd be suprised on performance if you drive it right. I've taken a WRX off the lights as he didnt realise i had 4WD haha , He caught up But yeh they arnt 2 bad . My R33 GTS4 does it around 8 Seconds providing my car weighs 1480kg , which is around 110Kg more then a standard GTS25 providing i run 4WD Running gear. Here is a quick video of me doing 0-100km on some industrial area

i have a r34 25gt and i dont think it is slow i had a ford ba xr8 ute only just sneak past me and he was pushing it very hard i could hear it i had my windows down then i eased off cause i reached 100 and knew cops were up ahead and they chased him it was hilarious, thats what you get when your being a smart arse trying to race everyone you meet and sitting up my arse trying to squeeze through traffic just to get maybe 2 cars in front.

so in conclusion mine isnt slow but its not fast either.

That was third gear at 5grand,

My NA rb25de hits 100 just as i change from 2nd to 3rd.

Strange

GTS4's have shorter gears..

Dont get me wrong, NA's can be quick.. Even quicker than turbo cars.. Just aslong as there warnt too many straights.. A well sorted NA can breeze past a turbo with the right driveline/suspention/brake mods if the driver knows how to extract everything out of the ye ol' faithful DE. Through reducing unsprung weight an NA can be just as quick point to point as a turbo.

give the 1/4 a run and find out... a little piece of paper will tell you 'your' skills not the car's potential. which in my opinion is better.

having a car which can do 300km is different to actually doing 300km, and so forth.

man, i have apparently the slowest combo out there - N/A R34 25GT FOUR DOOR AUTO - BUT, i still dont see why people think its slow... get an exhaust on, and get SPLITFIRES :), and it will go hella fast enuff believe me. the autos do come with tiptronic too... :| i do 0-100 between 7-8 seconds.. it might be good to look into an R34 NA with 4WD system, coz dat will help a lot with the takeoff hahaha

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
