What a tool 'rorykinz'. GTRs are arguably the best Japanese production performance cars ever. Dam fool doesnt know what he's on about and probably is jealous of GTR owners & their income. Ask any mechanic with no bias and knows about jap cars, they'll agree that the skylines do really own the rest with GTRs having amazing potential.

There are also quotes in this thread where people are saying "people buy skylines just so they can say they say they own a skyline", hmmm maybe some people do, but it seems just about all skyline owners mod their cars because of the cars great engines & parts. I bought a GTSt because of its good power for money... whack a bit of money into it, next thing you've got a 12 second car for under 25k. Doing up a car is a hobby and im sure all other skyline owners would do it even if it wasn’t kool because it’s a passion.

The real problem with the GT-R is that it is not Drift Spec, so it is not cool...
I really hope this dude wasnt for real? lol

There are so many wrong things about that thread I wouldnt know where to start.

Hahah has that thread been closed? It's because that fool was getting his ass kicked with better points. I would have joined to slap him some sh!t.

but why is it these days most of the owners seem to own this car for sheer wank factor and nothing else? A minutes worth of discussion with them and you can tell they have no idea what they are driving, that they think they are 'cooler' for owning it, and in the middle of a Nerd life crisis

This i have to agree on with some drivers not just gtr drivers but alot of import drivers. My 2 cents.

Hey, im not gona give shit to anyone is less fortunate with there car or has less money *because there's ALWAYS someone who has more money or a faster car then you do*. But what i do have a problem with is them making up shit and ripping off something better simply because they are jealous. Jealousy is a bitch.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I have no hard data to report, but I have to say, having driven it to work and back all week, mostly on wet roads (and therefore mostly not able to contemplate anything too outrageous anywhere)..... it is real good. I turned the boost controller on, with duty cycle set to 10% (which may not be enough to actually increase the boost), and the start boost set to 15 psi. That should keep the gate unpressurised until at least 15 psi. And rolling at 80 in 5th, which is 2050 rpm, going to WOT sees the MAP go +ve very quickly and it has >5 psi by the time it hits 90 km/h. That's still <2.5k rpm, so I think it's actually doing really well. (I edited this from a previous version where I stated 80km/h was <2000, but that was a false memory. If I am rolling at ~1700 in 5th and floor it, it will start making boost before it goes over 2k - which is a separate "experiment" leading to the same conclusion. Which is that the boost threshold is actually quite low. It's not fast there, obviously, but it certainly makes progress towards going fast, which is not what it's been like for a long while!!) Because of all the not-quite-ideal things that have been in place since the turbo first went on, it felt laggy. It's actually not. The response appears to be as good as you could hope for with a highflow.
