If i purchased a stock auto 94 r33 gtst with about 100,000km on da dial and went up against a manual 93 honda integra vtir with a full 3'' exhaust system, air filter, extractors with 180,000km on da dial. i should win right coz i have turbo. dis might sound like a stupid questions but im still new to cars comin from bikes. how would i fare up. would i still rip him or, just, or lose. Newbie needing help.

well u "should" but i wouldnt' think an auto skyline is that great if i were u ... i got one myself ... the loss in power with the auto is too much i think ... but what can u do?? anyways hit the brakes and press the acc and rev it to about 3k just before u let go so u launch at 3k ... anymore and it might be a bit dangerous for the auto trans ... anyways u should beat him .. i doubt u will kill him :)

you'll blow him away

the only n/a that i've seen that it is remotely comparable to even coming near keeping up with my stock 1997 gtst manual is a honda prelude type r, and even that got a fair caning

Isnt a full 3' exhaust to big for a N/A 1.8 or 2.2 ??

and skyline will win

VTEC engines require larger then normal exhaust systems. The H22A redlines about about 7600 from memory and has a lot of exhaust gas that needs removing. If he has extractors, there will be no loss of backpressure.

My trueno for example runs 272 degree cams and has a full 2.5 system which allows it to breath at 9500rpm

A lightly modified Vti-R prelude will run 15.2 easily. 100kw's at the wheels with the H22A is easily acquired.

I think it would be close, turbo or no turbo, the H22A has balls of torque.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
