Who would win between a 2001 r34 manual stock standard gt-t vs a ford xr6 ute.. 4l straight 6, 4 speed automatic from a standing start?

Sorry if this post seems out of place in this thread, but does anyone know the differences between XR6 sedan and ute in terms of weight, drag coefficients, performances, etc. with the same spec? i.e 4L straight 6, 4 speed automatic, etc.

The reason I asked is I've been in a friend's stock R34 manual GT-T coupe while cruising with another friend's modified auto XR6 sedan. They are both good drivers.

On the free way, they gave it abit go. XR6 auto won, hands down. :P

wats a stock 25 got 185kw?? standard 4ltr falcons are 182kw i believe so i can see it beeing close race... falcon is heavier but most likely has more torque.

LOL rowan......

I wouldn't know anything about R34s and Falcons. But my friend's Falcon was modified, has forged injectors, exhaust, blowoff valve, etc. and he used to take it to the Barbagallo on every Wednesday nights.

That's probably why his is alot faster than stock R34 manual coupe.

What are forged injectors? lol. Blowoff valve isn't a performance mod, but it does mean the Falcon was an XR6T not just an XR6. Of course a modified XR6T is going to demolish a stock R34 lol.

no it could be a na with a fake bov, mighty car mods style

Sorry, I meant forged pistons, injectors, etc., and yes, it was an auto XR6T. :P

automatic transmissions are always quicker.

Why are all drag cars auto's?

There is difference between a falcon eb auto gearbox and a Lenco drag transmission lol. In reference the Nissan turbo cars all the manual models from factory are quicker than the auto counterparts with stock ET's and thats generally across with board. Drag cars are a different story.

dunno what year the xr6 turbo was, but they come out of the factory with about 240 or 260kw, so i wouldnt be too gutted, those things are quite brisk even without mods. especially the latest models, bloody hell.

I think his is 2003-2004, not the new one.

But yeah, freaking quick.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
