The factory quoted weight for the NA 2.5L is 1320kg from memory.

ditto

that's how mine's registered, whether it's the truth, well i haven't had it weighted but i have to take the skyline NA on this issue... i was in the process of buying a car just recently and i only bought the skyline coz it just felt faster and smoother on the road than the silvia's... (also the r33 just happens to be my favourite looking car(maybe slight bias here))

well i've lined up at lights with a sr - big arse BOV and by the next lights we were doing 160 and i was a car length in front (next set weren't too far away)

but of course it is all relitive to the driver....

gatty: true, in this instance you where probably a way better driver than the guy in the auto ca. :D

hahaha sorry i'm joking.. :D

Of course it has a lot to do with the driver, how the car is tuned etc.

Some people also dont know much about their cars powerband, when the perfect time to change gears is, and others are just plain retarded.

I'm sure the NA r33 wins the looks competition hands down, theres some damn bastard ugly looking silvias out there.

Infact I know a guy who has an N/A r33 and has dressed it up as a GTR.. pulls the ladies for only 15 grand! bargain.

I tend to agree with the guys who say a turbo silvia will beat a NA skyline. But when you have N/A silvia vs N/A skyline there's not much in it.

Have a look here compare a few times and you just might change your mind.

we are comparing NON TURBO silvias and skylines!

both the silvias i drove are non turbo, i thought that was obvious since we were comparing n/a silvia and n/a skyline. the skyline beats the n/a silvia in every possible way except handling.

and whats this about me driving a kitted up n/a to make it look like a gtr? i don't have a single aftermarket panel or badge on my car so :D

im gonna go against the trend and say i reckon the silvia would win.

sr20 vs rb25de i reckon the sr20 would win. im talking s13 sr20 the later series s13

in non turbo form i reckon the sr20 would. its a 4cyclinder, it revs harder and its lighter than the r33 n/a

a turbo sr20 would beat a non turrbo rb25de, well it bloodly well should, the driver must be very average

N/A silvia is the worst car i ever had.

i own r33 gts25 with pod filter and 3inch cat-back(too big? kicks ass on top end).

past drags:

ca18det 180 with exhaust and intercooler. 1st and 2nd gear was head to head, third gear i blew him away. and i dare swear on my family's grave. But i can blame it on the driver too.

s14 sr20det. same day i got my car i dragged with my friends 200sx. i got ahead but he caught up and stayed 1 car length ahead of me. i was a noob tho. didn't know i had to rev out my engine. never retried.

n15 pulsar SSS with extractors exhaust filter and suspension mods. i can say he killed me. hehe i will never underestimate that car again!!!!

in my opinion. gts25t's are crap. i dragged a few. some i beat and some i lose to. i dont know why but they don't impress me. i expected more of a turbo version of my car.

i had a NA silvia (auto) and now i have an NA skyline (manual) and my line EATS NA silvias. IT seriously no contest. Off them mark, they can probably hold you for abt 30 metres, then u'll pull away. Ive come up against heaps of Q's with exhausts, T-wings, Rims and rice stickers (wether or not there valid...???) from here to jamaica and they wont go me.

Theres a reason why a NA skyline costs 2-3 times more then a NA silvia....

    • Thanks, I'll have to cobble something like sonicii did, will report back
    • Agree! I still believe I have the quietest 400kW+ R33 in Australia.
    • ah gotcha ill go remeasure again, thanks for all the tips. when i measured the TPS 5v reference voltage, i put my multimeter leads on 5v power and strut tower bolt, it gave me 5v with boost sensor disconnected and with boost sensor connected it gave me 1.4v. ill try remeasure again this time with volt meter both on the 5v reference and TPS signal ground wire.
