So my r32 gts-t with rb25det got written off last year, got $10k from insurance somehow so I went to the dark side and bought a 2008 BF XR6T for $12.5k, anyway $5k later and it's making this power! This is K.P.Ms "flywheel figure" the real rwkw is about 320rwkw but this shows the curve. 380rwkw is doable on E85 and more boost.

FMIC, 1000cc ID, clutch, fuel pump, 4" dump & cat, custom tune, stock twin 2.25 from cat back, 265x18 rims

It is laggier response wise than the 25det with a 260kw highflow due to the GT35 being pretty big from the factory however full boost and torque at 3k rpm cannot be beat. Sounds awesome and it will make this power on the stock turbo and motor all day long with 200,000 kms on it.

So yeah, if you are thinking about going to the dark side let me tell you it is absolutely worth it for bang for buck! Also having all the creature comforts of a car that is 17 years newer really is nice, electric seats, leather, ABS, airbags, massive interior, cops don't look at it twice either! Around the hills it handles the same as my GTS-T, obviously one the track it isn't going to be as good due to having almost 400kg on the 32.

"flywheel kilowatts". Why not print it out in HP, then it will seem even bigger. Estimating "flywheel kilowatts" is like measuring your dick at 4" and estimating it up to 6" based on losing a bit between your nuts and your arsehole.

If it was actually on an engine dyno and MEASURED, then that's different.

Having taken the time to bag you though, XR6T is a decent package and easy to make power from given they're only running 4psi standard. I'm glad you're happy with it. But it's a red flag to a bull posting that sort of thing around here :)

I do like trolling. Forged internals, 4L and GT35 from the factory makes for about the best value motor you can get. It'll pass a roadworthy inspection every time, I also am far less likely to die when I put it into a tree due to the ABS, airbags and much higher safety rating.

ABS wont help you after you have hit a tree

Might help me avoid hitting it though! I tested it out in the wet and it works a treat with the DSC, can stomp on the brakes whilst turning hard and not only will it not lock up, it will still steer fine as well, 4 wheel braking is pretty cool.

    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
