These are the latest results from Superlap Australia @ Eastern Creek International Raceway in Sydney TODAY.

The Sierra Sierra Evo clocked a time of 1:32.2480.

Now the fastes ever lap time at Eastern Creek International Raceway in a V8 supercar was by Mark Skaife in a VT Commodore 1:31.7301.

The Hi-Octane R34 GTR is yet to set a lap time but my guess is it will be around the lap time of the Sierra Sierra Evo, if not a little slower due to traction issues.

Now if we look at this properly, the fastest lap time in a V8 supercar was set around ~10years ago, and the time-attack cars of today can not keep up with the V8 supercar's times.

That pretty much proves that a V8 Supercar would absolutely smash a GTR Skyline around a racetrack, regardless of whether its something small like Barbagello's of long and flowing like Bathurst!

.... and yet you missed the part where I said that the race prepped R32 GTR that skaife himself drove around bathurst, and drove again recently around bathurst, was only 3 seconds slower than the quallifying speeds of the V8 supercars of today. The car is 20 years old and STILL pretty much a match for the V8 supercars. Put that money into an 34R and I have no doubts that it would be closer.

At the end of the day, the current V8 supercars will be faster than a car such as the Mines R34 GTR Skyline.

HOWEVER, I do agree that if a team with proper engineers and real funding was to spend as much time, money & testing on a GTR as the current teams do on their V8 Supercars, then yes i agree that a GTR would be a good match for the V8's.

Yeah, the comparison between the MINES GTR and the V8 was always going to fail, it has to be fully funded race prepped 34R vs fully race prepped V8 Supercar to be a proper comparison. However doesn't look like we'd be able to see them on a track together anytime soon :P Such a shame...

a good comparison is the GT3 porsche , i think this would be a similar lap time to a full on GTR 34 given the r35 is slightly faster than a GT3, is this a fair comment . GT3 best lap can do a lap of Mallala in 1.14 secs and greg murphy commodore v8 supercar in 1.08 .

I was at the Eastern Creek World Time Attack, there was the High Octane R34 GTR that did a lap time of 1:34.1090 and a Mal Rose Racing Holden Commodore with a lap time of 1:39.3230.

Fair to say both cars were in the same pro class with a 5secs difference, so I would naturally think a modified R34 GTR is a faster car around a track than a modifed V8 Holden.

I have not mentioned the CyberEvo present at the event took the 1st place with a lap time of 1:30.5870, could potentially done a 1:29 but did not due to near blown engine which they tried to fix overnight nonetheless still managed to win the pro class event.

Not sure if you guys know, but the CyberEvo does laps around Tsukuba track in Japan in the 54secs range similar to that of the MSpeed R34 GTR, so we can pretty much use the CyberEvo lap times around Eastern Creek and compare that to the Mal Rose Holden Commodore, meaning a near 9 seconds difference.

Stock R34 GTR vs V8 Supercar, thats not even fair to even compare.

Modified R34 GTR vs Modified V8 Holden, as above R34 GTR clearly is faster.

GT500 R34 GTR vs V8 Supercar, I wouldn't have a clue but my money is on the GT500 R34 GTR

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.

      One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
