And people have gone mid 10s with DOT tyres in full interior "GTS" Skylines running 2.5litre engines and lowly GT3582Rs (under 400wkw). Hell one of my mates did a fair number of 10.6-10.8s runs with a stock bottom end RB25 25T, so one would imagine the same thing on full slicks - stripped out and a 3litre on it would go quicker again. Thats before you get into the fact this car would be making half the power again.....

Here is the rest of what i said, I clearly did have some involvement in the thread, by saying that neither car is really suited for drag racing in standardish form.

As a matter of fact that if I was talking to someone about this in person, I would say that it's a pointless idea.

So...how about you take some of your own advise and STFU, this is what forums are about...If no one replied to questions (even if they arn't what the OP wants to hear) than forums would cease to exist.

I don't think the question was "will the cars make it" or "are they good drag cars". The question was, ad-libbing, "Which car would be faster?"

How do you know the cars aren't set up to withstand the quarter mile?

u can see photos of my build thread here i dont have many recent photos to show, the pics in the build thread are about 5 months old just after i picked it up from dt panels

what tires u gonna use?

yeah im close to 150k... heres a basic rundown of the costs

car was 30k

engine is 40k

gearbox is 10k

clutch, diff, tail shaft etc 10k

thats 142k

also my best mate is building it and i help out where i can so im saving heaps on labour as well

Your mate is building it and its STILL costing 40k for a 26/30? :ninja:

I could see it being 25-30k total for big setup... but another 10k on top... that is some serious ouch.

You'd want some nice brand names for 40k, same with the clutch/tailshaft, that all should be 5k tops! ;)

A T04Z R33 GTR will be a 10s, a GT42R GTt SHOULD be in the single digits if everything is done right.
Curious, how fast do people expect the T04Z GTR to go?

A T04Z/Slicks GTR & dog box is a 9 IMO.

440rwkw+ will get to low 10's on semi's & a H pattern... So i could see the single digit ET for the GTR easily enough

Of course that's all the "variables" covered off and all.

my mate is not the boss unfortunately, he works for a workshop and the car is there and he is building it but i do have to pay his boss for his time.

and yes there are some serious brands going into it.

as well as many custom made parts.

Enough with the theory talk. Take them to the track and see. Also 140k on a car? Wow, do you still live at home?

ahh no mate i bought my only place when i was 22

i got 2 houses now ;)

and im only 25

Not being rude here, but seriously 40k for a 26/30?

I'm having a VERY hard time adding that up. Even with a billet 86mm crank and brand name parts for the rest i can't add it all up.

Mind posting an engine spec list please? I hate hearing of people getting ripped off

i agree with you on this my mate built a jun 2.7 litre t51r motor for less, sounds like someone is overcharging....

i dont feel as though im getting overcharged at all

engine will be able to produce over 1000hp

off the top of my head here is a spec sheet please bear in mind that this is not every thing

rb30 block

brand new r34 gtr rb26 head

custom pistons

custom billet oil pump

conrods

custom girdle

6 boost manifold

gt42r turbo

60mm tial gate

hypertune manifold - the larger one

hypertune fuel rail

hypertune throttle body - the larger one

ati 1000hp balancer

tomei cam shafts

tomei cam gears

larger valves

valve springs

1000cc injectors

machine work - porting, polishing

custom loom

oil restrictors in the head

ignition system

fuel system - 2 pumps, surge tank, braided lines etc

pwr radiator

pwr custom cooler (may change to arc)

pwr oil cooler (may change to trust)

all the pulleys on the front of the engine i think tomei

massive water pump

custom catch tank

splitfires

massive custom sump

thats just off the top of my head i have a 2 page list of all the shit thats going into the engine

then add fittings, braided lines and all the little bullshit stuff u need

redline will be over 9000rpm

i really dont feel like i need to justify what im doing either this is my project car and this is what i wanna do with it quite frankly if any one doesnt like it they can go f**k themselves

also to everyone saying go out and race - thats the plan but only when they r both finished i started this thread to have a debate about what kind of numbers car with this sort of power pull down the quarter, not to have a debate about wether or not i live at home etc.

cheers

    • Hi guys my 94 r33 gtst fuel pump has gone out. I have a walbro 525 ready to go in but am unsure if I need to upgrade the fuel tank bulk heads? Ive heard that others have issues with the stock wiring melting... Ive seen alot of people recommend this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-nissan-skyline-r33-r34-silvia-s14-s15-billet-fuel-tank-bulkhead-hat-top-an6-with-high-current-connector-apex-2-8-delphi-fpg-100?variant=42873255198898 My current pump that stopped working is aftermarket but I had no relay mod or upgraded connectors. Need some advice please. TIA
    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going.
