and the bay and where ever else i got but any way im still young^^

So I take it you are from Adelaide? since it looks as though it's got SA number plates also.

You say your young, but where abouts have you run an 11 second quater? We haven't had a running 1/4 mile track anywhere near Adelaide for around 5 years. Plus 250kw on a standard turbo (somehow??) in a boat like R33 doesnt really add up to an 11second pass.

I have a book about how to tune i read it and just add some thing else and still runin stock turbo :) took all stuff out of my boot u can do an 11 sec pass with 200rwkw all really need is a good set up

Ok, the "book" you are reffering to is the issue of HPI when they talk about doing an 11 second pass on a RB25 Skyline and how to achieve it.

First thing's first, if you are running the stock turbo with a great tune, good amount of boost and everything else is up to scratch you will be running around 200rwkw if your lucky.

Depending on your mods (ie if your car doesnt have a tune you have no hope) you could be anywhere from 170-200rwkw. So your figure of 250rwkw is WAY out.

Second that HPI issue was a bit missleading (probably possible, but very few cars perfectly setup can do such a thing, way to many variables), most stock turbo

skylines with a tune and good setup crack into 13 second passes. Yours would most likely would be in the 14's, so once again, way off 11 seconds champ.

Not trying to hang shit on you mate, just trying to educate you a bit so you don't go around saying stupid things.

There is not 38 grands worth of car there

I also know what a stock turbo'd R33 is capable of and it definently not 250rwkw and most definently not an 11second 1/4

    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
