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) :D . (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.

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 ;)

I hadn't yet seen the line up of events for this year's Special Olympics. Didn't realise they'd added this one.

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 :D

Is is school holidays somewhere? It's not in Brisbane... what's going on with the rest of the country?

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.

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

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
