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

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
