Those things are blistering fast with their 85kw engine. Plus they sneak under 1 tonne and have lowered suspension over the standard models.

I mean power to weight they are crazy.... oh wait, no they arent, they still suck. haha.

Gtr fanboys on a skyline website, who woulda thought? blink.gif lol

Being serious though, it does say that the bloke in his gtr was only learning the car (taking it easy obviously) after moving from a modified sti. I would say its more of a case of the gtr squirting on the straights, mincing the little shitbox and babying the hell out of it in the corners, then the rest was dreamed up by the suzuki drivers. I mean look at that video, those suzies are slow as hell.

I just watched that video I want my 2mins back how slow is that car. why would you both filming it?

My first thought is what car did this person 'upgrade' from that made them think this car was youtube worthy?

In the end though im glad he did, this way it proves just how pathetic the comparison between the suzie and the gtr is, its not like i ever would drive one to find out.

What's the price of this car 19990 and your manhood drive away no more to pay?

If this guy thinks it's fast then probably best off he sticks with it if he jumped in anything with over 150rwkw he'd wrap himself round a pole

See this is how i know they are full of sheet - he had to lift off the throttle! :rolleyes:

lol @ 2 gears to go around one car too, it was like sloooow motion.

The GOR is a boring road these days anyway. The limit is 80km/h and no word of a lie, all i do anytime i go down there is turn the wheel. Don't need accelerator or brakes, just turn the wheel left & right. 80km/s be toooo slow and it doesn't get to 100 until after Marengo/Apollo Bay

Plus the cops love to hide out in any nook and cranny so its just silly to go there for a spirited drive.

HOWEVER... If you want fun on the GOR, take an old shitbox down there like i did - Ford KC Laser, manual - FTW! Now THAT was some entertaining fun.

i owned a 1.3L festiva. i know exactly what you are getting at. that thing was one of the most fun cars i've ever owned despite being the slowest. the reason being that you could flog the hell out of it everywhere and barely break the speed limit, and still getting great fuel economy.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
