Yeah, I have found WRX's are either slightly modified or heavily modified. They have crap gearboxes and driveshafts, so you usually see close to stock examples (FMIC, Filter, Exhaust etc) to Extreme versions (over 260KW - These require strengthened boxes, stonger driveshafts, Engine Internals etc etc) - This really is a testament to the quality of Skylines.. My r33 is Heavily modified (Forgies, HKS turbo, FCONV, etc) but the gearbox/driveshaft is totally stock and coping easily...

Long Live the skyline!

beat a 2001 wrx yesturday. there launch is nearly unbeatable. i have only had the car for 4 or so weeks so im still learning but my gear changes i thought were pretty decent with small chirps right up through 3rd pulled away quite easy at top of 3rd.

won quite easy in the end

had a run with a rex last night, we both cruised off the mark, then went for it through first and second. when i threw her into second i started pulling carlenghts on him. Hahaha so funny, then he pulls up next to me with his chick in the car (who was looking over smiling) and goes 'oi, mate, my other car would smash that thing'. me and my mate just wound the window up on him as he kept talking. hahahahaha

yep with few mods and good launch Rexs are damn quick!

doesnt take much to get them into 12s.

rexs or GSRs that you guys have beaten are the one with shi t drivers. or they are relitively stock while skylines have around

220KW at the fly like most our cars do.

but belive me with good drivers and mild mods like 3"zorst and FMIC they will launch about 2 car length and may hold the gap until 400m mark against us.

allthis info are from pure experience myfriends :P good ol days

    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
    • I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
