yeah but comparing a big single 3076 proper setup to twin GTR is a fairly different comparison

i vote for the 3076 setup on the GTR - 4wd, individual throttle bodies, lots of gearing

i think ANY car stock is fairly ordinary

the only stock car that has suprised me is a friends WRX here (non STI)

i think its maybe a 2004/2005 WRX, and it has tons of torque everywhere and its bone stock

it has more pull in every gear over my GTST with usual mods

Of course - but that's gonna cost you $30k more... :(

More pull than your car with 194rwkw? Really?

I've driven an (05 i think?) WRX with a big cooler, exhaust, intake etc (standard boost) and i didn't think it was any quicker than my 34 when it had 185rwkw...

It did have a more 'torquey' feel though, less revvy...

I have always liked WRXs - they sound awesome and handle a shitload better than skylines - but they are everywhere and I think the 34 just has 'something' that the WRX doesn't somehow...

yep my GTST which ive had for 7 years has exhaust, intercooler, aggressive tune, heavy duty clutch, pump, splitfires, good tyres, suspension work, camber, castor, all the other bits and 192rwkw

the wrx is non-sti bog stock and its got 62,000 on the clock, my gtst has 230,000 on it

even when i had my gtst with 100,000 i still think the WRX has a bit more pull

i dont know how it would go on the street against each other, but i can feel the wrx pull more

and this is on light cruise, full gear runs, up hils and bogging it down

ie 50km in 4th gear lots of lag and floor it in both cars

60km in 5th gear lots of lag and floor it

the wrx seems to pull more consisntently all the way through

its probably a bit unfair as the skyline has a lot of km's on it

but the skyline also has 10k worth of parts on it

yeah i should add the wrx feels like it will drop off quickly and the tacho redline starts at 6500rpm

the skyline seems to pull alll the way and not die off, but wrx pulls more

i dont know if its the 2L or 2.5L wrx, ill check

Fair enough. Must say the RB25 NEO I have is around 30rwkw and 50+nm better through the whole range until 5k than a non NEO with the exact same mods / tune (compared at Morpowa) so might have something to do with it... Newer engine in the Rexxy = better technology / flow than an R33.

Still surprising in a car that weighs the same and would struggle for 130-140rwkw (stock) vs 190+... Anyone got thoughts on this?

yeah not sure what it weighs or what power it has

and not sure if its the 2l or 2.5l, but either way it is 4 cylinder

so

wrx 2l = 500c per cyclinder

wrx 2.5l = 625 cc per cylinder

r33 2.5l = 415cc per cylinder

that might be why

Surely more displacement per cylinder does not equal more torque...? It's a whole system as our 6 cylinders = 1 crank rotation in the same time as the 4 WRX cylinders do...?

dont know if its the be all and end-all but think of the EVO and the SR20

both are 2 litre 4 cylinders and pull some pretty good numbers and have good cc per cylinder vs other in line 6's

check out the barra XR6t

and we all know those things pull some spastic numbers

4l = 666cc per cylinder

if we follow the CC per cylinder rule for most torque

the lowest is the R32 GTST and the highest is the LS1/LS2's

and the 200sx, WRX, EVO and XR6 are in the mid to high end

the R32 GTST, R33 GTST, GTR are in the lower end

give us some more engine specs / mods and ill chart them all up

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
