Didn't know where to post so thought I'd post up here..

My sisters fiancée purchased a 2011 VE SS and has put extractors on with full exhaust,cold air intake and chipped it with a retune,he has also done some suspension work but nothing crazy..I'm not a hater of v8s and actually like the sound of a niiice cammed one but lately i can't stand his constant shit smack talk bowt my 32 and in his words ' these shitty 2 or 3 ltr rice cookers' thinking they are all this n that when any v8 could destroy em etc etc plus not to mention the teenage hoon mindset he has behind the wheel.He hasn't told me his dyno figure but I'm guessing it would be around the 320 kw give or take. NOW this is my question would my fairly moded 260 kw td06 equipped R32 beat the commo?, I work f.i.f.o in the mines atm so can't take my car to kwinana drags any given Wednesday so am trying to find if they still do Wednesday night drags? And what you guys think the out come would be, 1 good win for Japan or a win to the loud mouth punk in his 6ltr..

Post away your replies I don't get offended :-)

260 in a 1.3 ton car or 300 in a near 2 ton car. but then you have to take in manual vs. auto, 1/8th or 1/4, drivers of each car yada yada and the result is usually too many factors to decide without actually taking them to the strip.

No the VE will pump your R32, TD06 or not.

The only solution to this is to fit a L98/77 6L to your R32.

Keep the replies coming :-)

Lol sorry but that's not the only solution bozodos a rb25 or 26 is a more natural progression not take a back step and fit a v8, my brother has the 5.7 ltr VY SS with extractors, full 2.5 inch zorst and some chip and I blow him away every time he gets serious and the 2 times we have been to the plex but seen as tho I know jack bowt the 6ltr I thought someone else would and can give some first hand help or experience with em..looks like the only way this is gonna be settled is on the track

The 6l is a different animal to the 5.7 - more comp, WAY better heads and different ECU etc, tend to see better gains out of them once modified; from 240-260rwkw usually (on a Mainline), so yeah around 320fwkw or thereabouts.

Bolt on Gen 4 6Ls often run mid to high 12s on the quarter FYI.

Hmmm makes me wanna get down to Perth ASAP and take this to the plex,my car can run 12s flat all day and I have the slips from the plex to back that up as well, i may run a few more psi and see how I go then..also forgot to mention I'm driving a gts4 so grip is no problem and il start working on my launches :-)

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
