S2000 would be running in the high 14's there really would not be much seperating them. Credit to Honda they are a very highly tuned machine from factory. Unfortunately going faster really costs big $ in the Hondas. most people who modify them usually end up going backwards. I have a good friend with an integra who just by fitting a full exhaust picked up 3 kw from 7000 rpm to redline. Unfortunately under 7000 rpm he lost 5 kw all the way.

So average power from idle to redline still comes as a loss

R33 though is SO much easier to improve power on however

I'm sorry but the S2000 will be quicker on the track and on the strip relative to an R33 GTS-T...an R33 GTR on the other hand is much more of a contest :P (assuming both are stock of course)

yeah it depends on who u talk to........

if you talk to a random skyline owner.......

obviously hes gonna stick up for thier car......

same goes for hondas.......or if you ask in a honda forum............

well the thing is..........s2000 are BRUTAL for a non turbo 4 cyl........and they are reknowned for that

and on the other hand the GTS-T are really nothing to sing a song and dance about... there isnt really anything special about its performance..... for e.g the simiallar induction/CC car i can think of is the Toyota Chaser.... its also a 6cyl 2.5 with a 1JZ-GTE engine (which are reknowned to be one of the BEST inline 6's in the world) & single turbo, RWD but only comes in auto......

those things do LOW 13 SEC!!!! and i think are actually heavier than skylines.

anyhow getting back to the figures....

i think its a close call......the HOnda Runs a 176KW @ the motor stock ...and im pretty sure the GTS-T is also around 176 - 178KW @ the motor stock.....

but a BIG difference in weight there.....

and the extra Nm of torque.......on the GTS-T may or may not make up for it.

I currently own a Civic Type R, and while V-TEC Hondas are pretty quick, they achieve their power with very high rev limits, and relative to any turbo motor, they have no torque whatsoever.

The upshot of all this is, they are very quick in the right gear and at the right revs, but not as user-friendly for real-world driving and for modifying. If I wanted to run an S2000 in an R33, I'd make it a rolling start and wait till he's in 3rd or 4th and catch him on the hop lol

yeah i hear ya dude

ive driven a Honda Integra Type R a few years ago.....

and mate.......what a SACK OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!

such garbage really.....

sorry to offend honda fans......but its true.......HIGH revs is something you dont want....

some people think its a good thing but it really isnt......feels like a WORN CLUTCH!

ive driven a 200sx with a worn clutch and thats EXACTLY how the hondas felt.....

your always constantly having to gun it to the floor to even beat anything or accelerate ahead of anything

makes you eventually feel like your not running enough power to what your putting down........

anyways, i dont like V8s..and i would probably never buy one.......but id chose that over a Type R any day...

but in terms of S2000 of GTS-t...............id go the S2000......

its probably a tad quicker than the GTs-t...... but looks alot better and more original..where every tom dick and his dog has a GTS-t or GT-t or watever the GT.......

S2k = 176kw / 1260 kg (curb weight) = 139kw per tonne..

R33 183kw / 1370 (curb weight) = 133kw per tonne...

R33 has alot more torque (294nm), S2k has 208nm but it probably gets evened out with the added weight of the R33.. so stock for stock, i'd give the win to the S2K theoretically :P

im sure R33's are alot easier to gain power from compared to the S2k tho and R33's nowadays always have some kind of work done so it really would depend

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
