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 :-)

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
