I know this isn't really the thread to be discussing this article, but does anyone else find it a bit weird that they claim the GTR with "stock" boost, will climb to 1.3bar (19psi) with just an exhaust and powerfc?! Does the vspec have the same ceramic turbos as the standard GTR? If so, this would be goodbye x 2 for the turbos. Anyone know what stock boost actually is for a GTR34? I always thought it was the same 6-7 psi as non-GTR skylines.

The article isn't really comparing apples to apples either. The STi and Evo are direct competitors. The GTR appeals to a different market than the other two and you will find that people in this different market (most of us) will view the GTR as superior for what they'd want in a car.

Good read however...

yeah mate I agree entirely - it is a lot like how the Aus Delivered 200SX/S15 won the Performance Car of The Year in 2002 - it won on the basis that it was $200k cheaper than the Porsche tested, and availability/price or parts is a fraction of the cost etc etc. Of course it isn't a better car than the Porsche, but on their comparative analysis which includes value for money, it came out on top.

no worries guys .... thanks really to Pawley (edit: not Paully) since it was out of his mag :) (I have one somewhere but was easier to grab it out of his collection).

LMAO

Ohhh, that box of mags. I guess I will need to find a suitable 'space' for it at some stage.

Spotted the hottest R34 GTR VSpec today, Bayside Blue, custom plates "34VSPEC" gave the dude a thumbs up. Never seen it before, has anyone else on here seen him or is it new?

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
