Chrysler Crossfire Vs R33 Gts-t

[Shanu]

Hey guys was after some advise.i got a stock R33 gts-t.one uv ma work mate just got a crossfire and challenged me to a race,do u guys think a stocky has a chance or should put a few things in it and then accept the challenge

Try and get in a couple of F&F viewings for practice before your race, it helps.

Are you going for slips?

[Shanu]

Na just a few drags.plus the crossfire is an AUTO.If i get a boost control and run it at 11,would it be alrite?

[West]

In before lock but fyi the Cross Fire will munch you. Calder opens next month too.

[Birds]

Just make sure he doesn't have a stage 8 auto transmission, because if he does you're gonna be flat out of luck. Those things are animals with this upgrade. Do you know what he has under his bonnet? I think you should get a couple of parts from Japan before taking him on.

[Shanu]

Hmm dono about his transmition,but his car is stock,yeh ur right that wha i was thinking,should get a few under the hood and then take him.for a starter what should i get?

[dezz]

If you wanna beat him the cheap way, get yourself a boost controller and set it to 15psi. It'll be fine for some drags and you'll destroy him

[Mavric]

If you want to beat him buy my car...

see linky below

I'm assuming you'll be "racing" at Calder on Friday night yes?

Dude, OVERNIGHT parts from Japan, and a Motec Exhaust to say the least. I'd probably re-enforce the floor plan because they've been known to come loose when you're manifold pressure is to high. Keep it to 5 shots yeah?

i hear MoTec are releasing new turbo back exhausts designed specifically for 33GTST's that will be doing drags. they say gains of up to 45RWKW are easily achievable with stock turbo. try google'ing that shit brah

Yeh thats what he said Calder,still have a couple uv weeks before i take him on.so wil put a few things in the line.at the moment i got a Blitz Fmic,nismo turbo back,what else do u reckon should i get?

[adznight]

A nice 3" front/dump pipe and boost. Like 11psi worth

[dezz]

minimum 15psi or you'll get destroyed

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

LOL!

a "VS" thread.

Skyline GTS-T = 2.5-litre, I6, 24-valves DOHC, Turbo 184 kW, 294 Nm of torque.

Chrysler Crossfire = 3.2-litre, V6, 18-valve SOHC, 160 kW, 310 Nm of torque.

[adznight]

Better to be destroyed than destroy your turbo though.

[MUZT3K]

dont the crossfires come in v8's too?

Oh ok, so this will be a legal race...in which case I'll give you a serious answer:

Get a bleed valve / manual boost controller; don't run much more than about 11psi. If you get a chance do some supporting mods like a front mount intercooler and exhaust system.

Those crossfires are pretty quick (they sound awesome too). You can match one with an exhaust system alone but you will need to be perfect in your shifts and launch.

^^ Brids, he already has a FMIC and turbo back exhaust.

Boost controller is the next step then maybe a tune, get an APEXi Power FC...

Upgrade your Panel Air Filter to a high flow one, like APEXi, K&N just to name a few... Or you got an air pod?

I never new the Crossfires where that fast...

buy my car, show him wat an rb20 can do
