skylinelova07 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Hey everyone, my brother is doing up his datsun 1600 with a worked 1.8L engine and I myself, am considering buying an R34 GT Skyline (n/a). So my question is, would i win when we drag each other off the lights? (theoretically) . (remember i own the r34.). (note. the datsun weights 980 kg (or somethin like tha)t and the skyline weighs 1400kg (that's not real accurate i know lol). My bro's datsun puts out 80kw of power. Luke. Thanks in advance.

bozodos Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 lol sh*****t thread, and I'd DEFINITELY go the Datto over a N/A Skyline. If his has 80rwkw and 900kg that's pretty good power to weight ratio. To put this in perspective, the gf's 1200 with 35rwkw will go tearing past 5 litre V8s at the green light grand prix up to say 50km/h or 3rd gear Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/285235-who-is-the-winner/#findComment-4791256 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isola Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) would i win when we drag each other off the lights? I hadn't yet seen the line up of events for this year's Special Olympics. Didn't realise they'd added this one. the gf's 1200 with 35rwkw will go tearing past 5 litre V8s at the green light grand prix up to say 50km/h or 3rd gear Yep, and then at the next snap into 4th you're going to be doing the speed limit anyway, and the oh so thrilling "drag race" comes to a halt unless you're mentally retarded Is is school holidays somewhere? It's not in Brisbane... what's going on with the rest of the country?

bozodos Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 lol yeah thats right, its good fun though, I reckon it would have better 0-50 acceleration than my turbo Skyline quite easily too. I know this because when I had a V8, I'd always get chomped by Datsuns, which would always back off at 60 lol. These days I don't bother (and because I'd be going over the limit in my car before it really started to go anywhere). and yeah pointless thread, in summation, Datsun > later model Nissan at the Green Light Grand Prix based on the scientific evidence I have assembled.

mad082 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 LOL, a guy i used to work with had a 1200 ute and he used to be in 3rd gear by the time he got across the traffic lights, although he was only doing about 40km/h, LOL but tell him to ditch the 1.8L and get a worked L20. can get around 115-120kw out of them if you don't mind replacing headgaskets at every oil change, LOL Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/285235-who-is-the-winner/#findComment-4791966 Share on other sites More sharing options...
