Our lite weight is the only advantage we have...So I have makde it even liter on myne.( i actually thought of buying carbon doors too at one stage but its definatley street illegal in NSW )

Power up mods wont really help as we 34's be skidding when 2 much power. So to get some grip some Expensive 18 by 9inch( or wider if u can find/fit) wheels at back and nicely tuned suspension. But then again really depends on many conditions at time of race including weather and such.

Any ways good luck with the race and Hopefully you will enjoy the carbon bornet as much as i did... :)

"May the bornet be part of your Victory"

hahaah

Wow i just read the whole thing to kill time...Very interesting.

Was just adding my 2c earlier but after I read all I realised its one serious 34 u r building there. I first thought it was for just Mild mods but yourse is going to be ONE SERIOUSLY AWSOMELY WILD 34 there...!

And wow 12inches cool.

Umm mate he is drag racing. Not circuit.

He won't be running 18" rims, more likely something around 16" and putting some nice big drag rubber on, and certianly a bit wider than 9" :D

Low profile 18" tyres are not going to be much use at all, plus added weight of the rims, not doing anyone favours.

yeah figured it just then too hehe

Nice topic by the ways u got lots of hits and replys on this "who would be faster"

"Power up mods wont really help as we 34's be skidding when 2 much power" Yeah i agree, dont waste your time with the 30/25

f**k lucky u got involved in my thread mate,.

just on ur advise im gonna scrap the whole project.

idiot

if u read correctly it says 26/30 dude

Wow someone won lotto...

With awd the gtr can launch harder and get his turbo's spooln quicker? and I'm guessing after the 34 gets traction It'll catch up and maybe pass the gtr?

Has anyone thought of calling it a tie yet? lol

not really dude, just work hard every day, i dont remember what it feels like to have a day off, but thats what it takes to have the cash to blow on the cars and house u know.

the gtr is also single turbo.

and no there will be no tie!!!

If you get the suspension and weight transfer sorted you will spank a gtr mate. The quickest drag cars on the planet are rear wheel drive for good reason. WEIGHT.

The cream can hook up with over 8000 hp. With a bit of experimentation you should be able to succesfully launch a rwd skyline.

Have you thought about aerodynamics?? You could have a look at getting the east bear front + rear under body carbon fiber diffusers, although they wouldn't come into play until about half way down the track..

hay mate got most of the aero stuff sorted.

have a tommy kaira front bar for the street and a carbon bomex bar for the track,

i havnt decided which one to modify yet but i have, carbon canards, carbon front splitter, and im looking at a r34 gtr rear diffuser also.

I think he was just being sarcastic man...

yeah i know lol

but im a smart ass so i like to have the last word :D

You haven't considered the obvious problem comparing an 8000hp top fueler with a 700hp "street" car?

My money is still on the GTR.

Youtube "fast skyline" and there will be dozens of vidoes of quick Skylines, 95% of which will be GTRs, and they'll make up 100% of the really, really fast "street" cars.

Sure there will be dozens of them, but the fastest 1/4 mile skyline in the world right now is a gtst and it resides in England.

Average street car is always going to get its arse handed to it by an awd but a prepped track car is a different animal and I believe that is what the original poster was talking about.

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
