R33 Gtst Vs Ford Xr6 Turbo Bf Model

[zoomzoom]

the 4L is putting down roughly 20% more torque... And that is what wins a race.

Well, I was with you up to that point.

thread blows...

[MBS206]

The figures I read must have been old then, explains some of the 30KW gain from a slightly smaller turbo between the BF and FG. Im trying to look after this car so wont be reaching this overtake mode for a while, im interested to know more about it. Also Launch control wont get a workout.

Overtake mode works that from around 70KM/H if you open the throttle up completely, it'll add in an extra 10% of Torque for 3 to 5 seconds. I'm not sure if it's in the autos only or not though.

My skyline has a push to pass function.

And while your all gloating big numbers lets not forget the ford is near on 2 tonne...and 20k...spend same money on r33 it will flog that ford

[FordyR31]

1710kg is hardly near 2 tonne. Afik the 33 is approx 1370 so 340kg is a big difference but unless you have driven one you just see numbers. Aaaaaaaand your 33 gtst didnt come with Launch control. I love skylines and it disappoints me (on the skyline side) at how good the XR6T's are without any mods. I guess thats why Ford designed and built them like this, to challengebto Import market.

Hey Matt.

I was talking about the ba ford .

Up the boost bye bye apple pie.

[gtr jet]

The BF will munch your GTS-T.

[dyl33]

Isn't the stock turbo on the XR motor a garret gt3540?

[Mayuri Krab]

Not a chance.

Plus if your car is still on stock boost, even a N/A FG XR6 will almost keep up from on traffic light GP.

Straight line acceleration wise, stock R33 is no longer fast versus many of the large family sedans we have on the market.

This^

I'm even confident enough to say a stock V6 camry will keep up with a stock r33 gtr.

A bog stock FG XR6 is quicker than a R33 GTSt, my mates one ran 14.4 @ 98mph. No mods what so ever.

My old man had a similar race before

His GT35R powered R33 at 350rwkw vs a BF XR6T at 330rwkw. The skyline hosed it from anything including roll ons at any speed and off a standing start. For the mods listed in the OP though the XR6T will win without trouble.

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

I was getting rolled by a FG XR6 turbo automatic ute and sedan at the drags, running low 13's everytime. Also sat in a mates FG XR6 turbo with a full exhaust and the thing has so much grunt down low, its pretty impressive.

Overtook a BA XR6 turbo one day starting at 3rd position on the grid (behind him at the lights), he had a few passengers and i had a boosted stock turbo..

[Iron Mike]

I have endless Skyline pride but the Ford would munch you......only 1 way to find out for sure I guess

[famous33]

I have a BF XR6 turbo ute and my misses has a 33 gtst with exhaust, fmic and a lil extra boost and I can assure all of you that the xr6 will hose it all day every day!!

FORD FALCON/ end thread

[BeastVS]

There are so many variables its not funny. Stock for stock the falcon would obviously win.

Not sure about that one...

Unless you mean the current Aurion (Sold as 3.5 V6 Camry in other countries), those were faster than most 6 cylinder falcdores in a straight line I believe.

The older (3.0) V6 Camrys had pretty 'meth' acceleration espeically if they had the ancient slush box auto, my parents had one (2002 model) & overtaking at highspeeds (80km/h+) sucks major donkey kong ballz.

maybe your wife is just a shitty driver...

you blokes are dreaming, I ran high 12's with nothing more than a zorst a tboost and a safc. The old skyline with very minimal mods in the right hands can dust the ford no probs.

Obviously the henry has potential for more power with the cubes but dont under estimate weight, the henry is some 3/400 kg heavier than the line.

do the same mods to a xr6t and they will be in the low 12's with a decent set of tyres. it's all well and good to say a car with mods will beat a stock car, but that goes both ways. a modified xr6t will just be a pair of tail lights off in the distance when racing a stock skyline.
