i think it would be too hard to determine as you would have to compare lap times...

i doubt any V8 Supercars or the Mines or MCR cars have ever raced on the same track...

response wise, MINES GTR FTW... man that thing is a monster lol

I go to bathurst most years and because of my Mums side of the family who used to race for bob jane i got to meet him and Harry firth who designed the monaro thats were i heard about a "Gt-r" if you go there everyone still talks about i think 92 or 93 the year the GTRs beat like every v8 there, Chances are a Tuned R34 vs V8 Supercar = GTR would win, one of the reasons gtr's won was because of Hicas they had awsome handling and were lightning fast.......So then they banned them because it wasnt "Fair" LOL :)

^what he said. The V8 supercar is a farken long way removed from anything to do with the road version. The falcon even still races with a pushrod V8 even though the road car doesn't.

Besides, I am yet to see any GTR get close to 298kph down conrod... :)

If you pored the same about of money, time and expertise into an R34 as they do the v8's, you'd have something that would rival most racing pasta-rockets.

:)

here's one we prepared earlier..

a V6 TT response compared to a V8's response, yeah okay, hard to compete with...

the MINES GTR in general though, i don't think there's many cars out there at all with the V6 TT setup that come close to having response like that machine, in all the videos and time attacks i've seen that car in, the way it revs through all the gears are insane...

i'm just basing my knowledge on how i've seen the car run on the track, that is all... there's nothing wrong with your theory, but i will stand by the fact that every time i've seen that car in action and how responsive it is is insane...

The Mines GTR is a road going car with road rubber. It's going to get smashed by the current spec race trim V8 supercars in a race on any circuit you like.

tru dat

even in the short run from hell's corner to corner 2 at bathurst the v8 supertaxis are getting to 255 kph

i would like the mines gtr do that

650hp from a 5 litre pushrod v8 NA vs a 800+hp 2.6litre turbo???

v8 would absolutely eat it

now - awd in a v8 supertaxi?

thats a different story and would be a very interesting scenario

that was written a year ago

even if they could beat it a few years ago, its still a long standing record

Super GT cars today better then V8 Supercars of today?

not sure, they should compare lol

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
