Hello,

I have noticed the Car "GOLGO" R33 GT-R Midnight Purple in colour is really weak.

It ran 13.3 Down calder a long time ago.. and now on the Dyno only powering 180KW!!! .. i just wanna know is this normal or totaly stuffed up ?

thanks mate

Golgo is tuned to blow flames out the exhaust. :D

dave : i wasnt being a dhead.. i just wanted to know what modifications he had.. as in Exhaust and stuff.. most GT-R's pull just under 200 KW with a full exhaust.. GOLGO was just not all so good for the crown.. even James went red after he saw the results..

Thanks dAve :D

if its stock theres nothing wrong with 13.3, thats all mine did stock, but that was a 8000rpm launch too and not everyone likes to launch it at redline, 180kw at the wheels prob sounds about right too?

13.3 is about avg. for a soft launch and avg. reaction/60ft times.

Something well into the 12's is possible.

180awkW is also avg. for a stockish RB26.

T.

golgo isn't designed to be a rocket, just a nice machine all round, as I'm sure James would agree :D

With 200rwkw a low 13 or high 12sec bracket is about average for a 33GTR. Its the ATTESSA that makes it grip nicely and get the better times than the 33GTS-T

There is nothing wrong with GOLGO. Golgo is a stock R33 GTR with exhaust and that's it. The car's O2 sensors are pretty far gone and hence it is running rich and therefore makes a better flame thrower than a race car. The 13.3 was done with a slipping clutch so it is capable of doing a high 12 which is right for a stock GTR.

The 180awkw is an accurate figure of what the car should be making with the limited mods and tuning.

It is going to be worked on by ICE in the near future so things should pick up soon :rofl:

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
