S15 Vs R34

[TTT]

if you are planning on getting the car & modding it, id suggest u dont. I was in the same boat as u. Almost bought a N/A skyline 3 times but I took ppl's advice & I waited to get off my P's coz if i got it I would have thrown lots of money at it & then bought a turbo when i got my opens anyways.

Just my 2 cents.

Of course you were. You were in an NA R34

[Jonno34]

^ LOL

But I think he didn't get a n/a 34 and got a turbo one after he was on his full license

but still, good call.

[luke gtr]

^^^

youre both wrong, he said a 34, not a 33....

[Super Drager]

R34's are heavier than R33's.

[B-Boi34]

Nope I didnt get a N/A i waited 3 long, painful years & then got a Gtt. Well worth the wait.

[Hadouken]

Good for you, someone listened.

[mad082]

that's gotta be a first, lol

[adamskill]

i....we...ah...wow!

[Hadouken]

It's the dooms day year, maybe this is a sign!

[browneye91]

...and you will beat them with a Hyundai each and every time.

hey hey hey dont be haten on the hyundai's, my excel would scare all you N/A boys

If I had to pick a cheap N/A car it would be what I had when I was on my p's a ford laser ke tx3 all it had was extractors, some 14" meshies, and two seats everything else was stripped the f**k out my missus hated it shopping would go everywhere but I sure had fun rallying it though the bush every Arvo after work and only paid $300 bucks with rego.

The shit boxs are the most fun IMO ended up getting side swiped by some dog drink driving.

[Jonno34]

^ true, my shitbox was a 700 dollar 91 sexcel with chrome hubcaps and a flower on the keychain and alot of other girly accessories, but it was actually a ton of fun.

Kinda miss it lol no power steering was fun.

Had one of those aswell was my missus car but she didn't have her licence so I ended up having it went rallying one night with a mate and reversed it through a gate at peak revs lol the gate did not budge

[Hadouken]

Lol^^^^

that tells most of the story, but not all of it. how an engine delivers it's power will give a better indication of how fast it will be. plus gear ratios. for example, if a commodore had gear ratios similar to those of a skyline then they would give even mild turbo skiylines a bit of a scare because of the amount of low down power they produce compared to small engined turbo cars. they would also be a nightmare to launch without a ploom of tyre smoke.

we should also mention that all the weights and power figures are wrong.

[The Bogan]

we should also mention that all the weights and power figures are wrong.

And the correct weight and power figures are ?

[Cowboy1600]

we should also mention that all the weights and power figures are wrong.

Ummm, no, no they are not. Unless, of course, you know better than the factories who built them.

S15 - 120Kw 1200kg - factory figures

VY Commonwhore - 1522kg - 152kw - factory figures

R34 coupe - 140kw or 147kw - turbo is 1410kg so I did take a stab and estimate around 1350kg and used Wikipedia for the power.

So, apart from the R34, the spec are correct and I think it's fair to say the R34 specs are pretty damn close to correct.

[mad082]

yeah they are close enough to get a rough idea
