Happy New Year guys... I hope '04 will be vastly improved over '03, I've got a feeling it will!

Yeah both diablo and skyline 1/4 time is slow.. the gtr mostly run high 12- low 13s fastest gtr i seen run is 12.777 in a R33 in a cold month but thats during cold months, so. Anyway aveage GT-R run 12.8-13.0s and the Diablo is quite fast around low 12s thats a big difference but the power is a big difference too.

The top speed isnt 112 on the GT-R im very sure about that and yeah that is pretty weird how the GT-R was very slow.

the top speed on the GTR is electronically limited to 112, simply cutting the #53 wire on the ecu (yellow and silver one) will effectively remove the limiter. You also have to remember that the skyline is running on 1/2 the engine. As for it's poor performace on the skidpad, you seem to forget that the reason the skyline does poorly is because of the Super Hicas that greatly hampers it in that area, removing the Hicas fuse will yeild greater performance. As for the fastest GTR I've seen a [email protected] and the Croydon Wholesalers R32 GTR ran a 8.69 @ 158 mph on street tires. I've also seen the HKS GTR putting out over 1500 Hp and running 51 psi of boost. There is also the 1360 hp fully road registered and street legal (yes it passes emissions) veilside GTR. Considering all the factors epecially price the GTR is more than a match for any diablo. Oh yeah I forgot to mention that the skyline has also been detuned. See nissan only sets the injector duty cycle at 80% from the factory, meaning the skyline can only run at 80% efficiency. Another little issues is the boost restrictor plug placed inside the engine that forces all the boost through a tiny hole, simply remove it and you get instant free power. Take RazorGTR's R23 skyline for an example. He removed the plug, bought an aftermarket chip to take care of the 80% duty cycle problem and he runs an 11.82 @ 112 mph in full street trim including spare wheel and all tools and full interior...ooh wow only 300 bucks and hes running 11's in a car that was built in 1992. BTW incase you are wondering...he only paid 14K for his car, nowhere neat the price of the diablo.

Skyline GTR

Horsepower costs money, how fast can you afford to go?

Whats all this about a boost restrictor? And the duty cycle? All you guys with R32 GT-Rs have done this?

Am I reading this right? I had quite a few :( last night...

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
