Hey guys,  

I have to do an example prototype of a graph for this client.

and basically in this prototype, I want to compare 4 cars..

at the moment im comparing the  

R32 - gts, gts-t, gtr

r33 - gts, gts-t, gtr

i need another make of car that has 3 types to compare to

anyone know of a car?

How about an LH Torana?

First production car in the world to have a 4 cyl (1900 Opel), 6 cyl (173 and 202 ) and 8cyl (253 and 308) available ex factory.

Showing my age now!

As far as i know, a stock SS against a stock R33 GTS-T would be pretty even. Both low 6 seconds 0 - 100. Both manual and decent drivers i don't see much in it at all.

cheers.

oh yeah, i don't think i can add anymore variants, maybe BMW's?

325i, 330i, M3? - GTS, GTS-T, GT-R - 147kw, 170kw, 256kw.

530i, 545i, M5? - GTS, GTS-T, GT-R - 170kw, 245kw, 298kw.

cheers

Sorry to say guys but i can tell you many ss story's where my 32 has come out on top, but ill only tell 3 to keep everyone awake ;)

1. The other night I had a drag wit a vn which sounded pritty tough. We both took off and both had good launches wit lil wheel spin. With my taller 1st gear I pulled 3 car lengths in front of him and through 2nd,3rd,and 4th that didn't change. He didn't have a passenger in the car either. My mate that was wit me knew someone who knew the owner so out of curiosity we contacted him to see what was done to the vn. It was a freshly rebuilt 355 stroker ;)

2. I had 2 mates in the car on the way home from crown, and I bumped into two mates I used to go to highschool wit. They both own vn ss's. We had a drag and I ***ed up my launch wit the extra weight in my car so i bogged down, although reving through second I was passing them. They have exaust extractors, cai, stage 1 cams and im not sure bout anything else.

3. One night I was cruizing down heatherton rd wit two mates and stopped at the lights next to a vx r8 clubsport. I dnt rev my car or be a smart ass next to people, although it really pisses me off wen people do that to me. Anyways he launched and took off nomal changing to 2nd at 3,000rpm's and wen I changed into 3rd I cruized past him.

Dude.. a VX SS will smash a GTS-t R33 S1orS2. even with exhaust.. then put a exhaust on a SS.. and even with some extra boost. the GTS-t will not beat it .. sorry to say. i am a skyline enthousiest but this time your wrong  

Hmmm... no... If this is from personal experience then learn to drive...

Here we go again, another Commondore v Skyline thread...

From personal experience on a 250 metre run, my 146rwkW 33 beat a VYSS by a car length. Would have been more but I had a pathetic start. Both Manual.

It will always be close, but a good 33 driver should win.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
