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.

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.

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.

      Blue slip

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
