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

i wont post pics of my mates gtr until its finished

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.

for tyres ill be using something like this most likely

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

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
