WRXs are for girls, or dudes who like dudes, that live NoR. Its quiet possibly the gayest piece of shit with 4 wheels on Australian Roads.

What the hell is "stage 1" mods ? too much Need For Speed buddy.

Beyond all that, its pretty obvious the Skyline GTR will give you shitloads more power, 2 more cylinders so you can be a real man, and hey, its cheaper.

Silly question mate :(

Coming from a guy who owns a GTR and who has driven a few WRX's ? GTR all the way mate.

Just the way a GTR drives vs a WRX, the fact that the GTR is still older, yet it is LIGHTYEARS ahead speaks for itself. WRX (unless STI?) is fixed in all wheel drive mode all the time, whereas the GTR torque splits. WRX's are prone to understeer whereas GTR's even though they are AWD, they still give you oversteer.

Know which trait I would rather :(

Also, RB26DETT motor... seriously :P **drool** Love it.

LOL looking for an objective answer on a Skyline forum! :(

Seriously for me WRX's are for a certain 'type' if you know what I mean? Back in the UK that means a taste for Burberry and pit bulls.

They are good cars and a street 'pocket rocket' but I'd rather have a skyline.

Also the new WRX is seriously ghey even if it is mechanically a good car with a decent AWD system.

EVO's are stronger and more reliable.

This is about the same as asking you mates what you think of your girlfriend. You are the one putting up with it every day. Drive each and do whats right for you.

But if it really doesn't speak to you the truth is the GTR is more fun. The only reason you would go another way is if you'd had enough of that type of driving and wanted something else.

hahah too much need 4 speed funny, well it has a flashed ecu, turboback exhaust, greddy ebc, high flow panel filter, turbosmart BOV... pretty much everything other than changing the turbo and injectors.

Ive owned neither and yeh i know it will be a biased opinion coming from this forum but hey at least im getting some laughs

On an unbiased level (seeing as I drive something better than both, combined), the WRX is a "scene" at the moment, too many little racer boy fags who cant barely see over the steering wheel around, all they do is make noise, I really don't see the hype, they're not quick.

Personally, I dislike R33s the most out of all the later model Skylines (R32 onwards), the GTR being the only R33 I'll let off the hook....cause its a GTR...you know.

Depends what you're after - you could probably get laid quicker by some gullible under age slapper in a WRX, you'll probably get laid and not catch AIDS if you get the GTR, make sense?

90% of wrxs are slow.. owned by 15yo's and 40yo's, they all look the same and sound the same.

one thing i reallllly dont get with wrx's is how ridiculous the prices are! even for a shit 1996 wrx some P plater would want 15k when then engine has 240,000ks!? please explain

..(id take an r33 gtr with a wound back clock anyday)

p.s if u buy a wrx ill sell u my hks ssqv so u can stand out of the crowd

I donno... neither will get you anything... well, not the ones that won't get you in trouble later on for underage child harressment charges...

Also WRXs are ulgy.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
