New Edition of SPEED - Im exited

[Blitz]

Brilliant.

The cover was enough to make me buy it... havent had a read yet but there is a sexy red R33 GTST with 307 rwkw owned by Denzo the great with a carbon bonnet (woohoo) Vs. a Red RX7.

also noticed a modded RS Stagea wagon mm

Go buy it:uh-huh:

[ex-static]

damn you convinced me.. I rarely buy magz I just read them in the newsagent.. lol

I might buy this one tho.. heh :bp:

[matlowth]

:lol: C'mon Matt it's not too bad for an internally stock 2.5L

Mind you it runs a 1.2mm HKS h/g, cams, head work, & every other possible bolt on! I watched this thing do a few 290+rwkw runs that were pretty impressive (@ 1.5 bar I think?).

Important point!!! IF it doesn't still run stock internals, as quoted on the JMS site(& @ the Adelaide Autosalon) then I'm not that impressed.

Its reliability & longevity with ~300rwkw on stock internals is the most interesting factor :uh-huh:

Here's the car in question - http://www.japanesemotorsport.com.au/newr33.html

OK!

I bought it today. The red GTS-t with carbon fibre bonnet looks omg sexy :eek: ...I didn't think it would suit a red car but that's changed my mind.

pete, yeah that was funny hey! I'm glad they wrote about that...the newspaper article was total crap and it's good to see someone in the media giving them a bagging

[matlowth]

Yeah, it would be interesting to see how long she does it for... Bloody nice looking car in any case... It's convinced me to order the 400R front bar + carbon bonnet

How you been anyway Matt, I haven't heard from you in a while!

is that at the start of the magazine? hahaha saw that to, r31 "GTR" shown next to r34 gtr that was good

[whatsisname]

It sure does look nice :uh-huh: It's interesting to see just how far stock RB25 internals can go?!

It'd be nice to nail down the maximum safe hp level so we know how far we can push Not that it's relevant to you Matt

Yeah I'm not too bad mate The arrival of :gaga: has kept me busy though. I now look a little like this ---> :coffee:

i got my copy of speed today! was reading about the red rx7 and gts-t when i came across

"Both are coupes, both cost less than $30k..."

where can u get a series 7, 97mdl rx7 for less than 30k?? or are they really that cheap now? that sounds damn cheap to me.

[ice180]

the articles in speed pretty average - do they actually drive the cars or just crap on about them, last issues I am buying.. 307kw form a GTS-T weak!!! Good old SR20DET can do 301rwkw with no internal mods either and its missing 2 cyl and half a litre....

[Guest INASNT]

that thing has the same exact kit as my car, now all i need is that engine!

matt

u copied my lip rear wing, now u r gonna copy my 400r front bar?

y dont we just swap cars mate??

[matlowth]

You know I would, but white's not my colour

If you actually read the current issue..

SPEED has probably already receivde quite a few emails/mails about the Integra type R featured in it... (not that we really care about honduh )

This is what SPEED replied to one of the loyal readers/buyers:

Hi,

Yeah, quite a few people picked up on that blooper. It's supposed to be 169km/h. We'll publish a retraction next issue.

Hope you liked the rest of the magazine.

Cheers,

Curt Dupriez

I'v read it at newsagent.. Ralph/FHM seems to be good reading too..

[matlowth]

hehehehe, I couldnt' ask you to make that sacrifice!

I bought "Speed" and was not overly impressed with it... It took about 30 mins to read and then i threw it in the bin. Wasnt worth buying.. I think i will stick to the "Option DVD magazine".

This is just my thoughts.

Nick.

[NIZ30]

Now that Option has been brought up.... Can or has anyone got them or know were to get them from?

[EnricoPalazzo]

Wasnt the engine that Denzo used from a R34 GT-T??

Also theres another mistake in the magazine.

It has the S13 and there is a 180sx pictured instead of a silvia.

I didnt think it was worth the $7.50:rolleyes:

[_turtle_]

im not sure if its a mistake, but with the integra type R, it says "Power is now 108kw at the wheels, thanks to $30,000 of go-fast components" now that is a damn lot of $$$$$$ to spend to get 108kw at the wheels. i thought that the type R would have that much power normally. or are honda's that weak? hehe.
