I'm reading this UK 'jap car' magazine which has an interesting article with some GTR's vs GTiRs..

The fastest car of the lot was a heavily, heavily modified GTR, but second place was the 'least of all modified car', it was a reasonably standard Gtir, and the only mods it had where breathing + exhaust mods with a boost increase.

It was pulling 11.7sec passes!

Cant wait for my GTiR which has arrived to be complianced.

Or even quicker,

I know several people who have pulled a low 12 with exhaust/filter/intake in a GTiR

I have a GTR with exhaust and a GtiR with exhaust.

There is more lag on the GTR which slows the SS400.

there is only about ($20,000) and 0.2 of a sec advantage in the GTR.

After 400 metres the GTR keeps flying the Gtir takes a lot longer to get to 200Km/hr plus.

The GTR has better torque which is what keeps it pulling and gives it abetter time around a track.

The GTir has 250 kg less weight.

It takes more than boost, exhaust and intake to get into 11 secs on both cars.

BUT, A GTiR is the most fun car to drive on this planet. It is like a go kart and even at low speeds feels incredibly fast.

So it is correctly dubbed son of Godzilla, (Unlike the Aus spec 200sx which is its poofy half brother)

LOL (flame suit on)

The only problem with the GTiR is the gearbox is fragile. I don't think it would last that long if you were pulling consistent 11's. However get it replaced with something better (expensive) and the rest of it is pretty bulletproof and cheap to get into the 11's.

yeah i know, when i was car shopping it was either a gti-r or a 33GTS-T :D i decided the skyline over the GTI-R mainly because the GTIR is so damn ugly and the Skyline is so damn sexy :mad:

also when people ask what car do u have its much better to say skyline than pulsar :)

Well i guess you will be very disappointed after u get your gtir and do the same mods and cant get anywhere near the same 1/4 time. Dont believe everything your read in a magazine.

I agree with INASNT...

Im sure this car did the 11.7 - probably with breathing mods (remove everything up to the throttle body), exhaust mod (remove it !!) and a slight boost increase (say 10 psi +), and maybe some slicks.. :bs!:

Although, im sure it wouldnt be constant, and it wouldnt be doing it again soon...

    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
    • Yeah that looks like great caster, but I'd suggest trying less front camber some time and seeing if it helps with braking without reducing mid corner speed too much
    • I ended up setting the rear 5mm higher than normal to give some clearance.  My plan is to run the least camber I can in the rear which I think with the extra width is going to need to be -1.75 to -2.00° just to get clearance.  Guards have been rolled and pulled as much as they can/I would be wanting to.  front has the Acostal knuckle with the KPI change and the drop etc. So should be okay with the existing settings I have run with AR1s etc Front: Toe total -2mm(1mm out each side) Caster +7.5° Camber -3.8° Ackerman +15°
