New Jaguar XKR-S makes 550 ponies at the crank.:yes:

Honestly what is the point if your RB25 - despite tons of work - is going to get you toasted by an exec in his flappy paddle luxo-barge on his way to work?:/

Troll harder, oh and IBTL

Just go buy one and spend your time driving it rather than posting pointless threads

If i'm not mistaken just doing some quick research around the net and it is looking to have a 1/4 mile of 12.5 whereas compared to stock R33 from factory ran about 14.4 which yeah I am sure a few mods will get you into the bracket with the Jag or the GTR boys will be right next to with only very few mods (32 GTR 1/4 mile time 13 seconds). Starting at $85 000USD I think the money would be better spent on a skyline which purchase cost plus the left over from the amount you spend on the Jag you would have not only a quicker but a sexier car.

New ford coyote 5.0l comes supercharged in the FG GT model. 335kw. Some tuner down south has added an intercooler, smaller pulley on the supercharger for more boost and has cranked out 500kw atw. Very cool motor, pity it comes in such a sack of a car. I'm waiting for someone to put one in a GT40 kit car or something, that would be awesome :cheers:

So I hear that the Bugatti Veyron produces 1000hp from an 8 litre V16 and does over 400kph. So what is the point of having an RB25 if you are just going to get blown away by Bernie Ecclestone on his way to sleep with his super model girlfriend???

You forgot there is the upgraded version (Veryon SS) with 1200hp & top speed of 420+km/h...

EDIT: Actually screw the Veryon (& the upgraded version of it) I want a German Lepord 2 tank instead.

As top gear has demonstrated with their Maurder review having an armored military vehicle as a daily driver has several benefits.

I no longer have to give a crap about soccer mum's in their 4x4s changing into my lane without looking or some douche tailgating or if you find yourself parked in by some moron who can't park straight.

More reasons not to bother with Skylines anymore...

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By MBS206 · Posted

      With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Scissor Jacks are an accident waiting to happen, the only time they should be used are in an roadside flat, even then a tyre and rim should be placed underneath

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
