And up to and over 5000bhp, multi stage clutches, full chromoly chassis and running on nitro methanol.

or people could be talking about circuit racing as opposed to drags??? =\

horses for courses..

I've just finished the manual box conversion to my Stagea. Next step is a brake upgrade, then I'll be hitting up Mallala for a track day.

Anyone wanna see how fast a "Volvo wagon" can go :)

didnt someone else have their 260RS out on the track day....that went alright

will find the consult port, got to use my laptop as speedo for a little while

until I fix up the connection to the tomei dash

If your speedo cable isn't connected to the dash then your laptop will not display speed - the sensor is in the speedo head.

I can run my car in both and 4WD is a f*kton better than RWD. RWD = wheel spin/limiter bashing at full boost in 1st & 2nd which = slow and gay, 4WD = over 300kw of traction and that throws you back in the seat like a mofo ;) No way in hell i would ever trade mine for a 300kw GTST.

Mine still spins and limiter bashes in 1st and 2nd..........in 4wd :P

its already an animal whats next :P

merry Christmas too Andrew will ring you soon about the simulation day would be good to see you in that

Cheers Steve, Merry Xmas to you too! I'll have to see whether I'm about for the Simulator day - already spend lots of time in sims.... but would love to come along!

2 litre SR20VET; 7.49 sec and the RWD's have it. Oh and that was the first full run ever in the car it running better times now.

Yeah, but yours is also running 1'15 around Mallala lol

Hmm, now I'm wondering if I'm faster around Lala with the 60hp proddie, or the Stagea! :( I've done 1m17s with 100hp.

Yes, I'm cheating and talking bikes again. :)

Remove slicks and replace them with street tyres and also take away the drag strip and put them on the street and the 4WD will kick ass!

Pretty sure we were talking about street cars driving on the street to start with were we not?

measure them, unless they are 296 x 32mm then they aren't GTR. R33 GTS-t's are the same diameter but 30mm. The regency inspectors will know the difference.

Oh and by the way the quote for the engineers report mentioned in that statement was $2500

dale you can fit 32 mm gtr discs under r33 calipers, I have done it on my bluebird. Inspectors wont know the diff, mind you gtr calipers arnt that expensive anyway. Also i loled at fitting r33 power steering.

selling the wheels and tyres it came with.

selling the 5-seats

selling the spare gearbox - we'd need to see if it is indeed a spare gtr box. its sitting in the boot still :D

pm me for details

great fun to drive, going to be heaps awesome out as a dedicated mallala track-biatch

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
