hey guys and gals

A good mate and i have been having an argument about imports lately

he thinks that imports are hunk of dung , but i think commodores (which he likes) are hung of dung

so he challenged me to a drag race when i get my import

hes running a manual VT commodore with a exaust system otherwise stock

ill probably be running a automatic r33 skyline gts with only a exaust system

who would win in a 1/4 mile drag race?

cheers

if the R33 is NA then there is no hope against the commo, its is a turbo (GTS25T) then it will beat the commo whether its a V6 or V8...

LOL...I know its a Skyline website but it still amuses me how people will overate standard Skylines sometimes, a standard auto GENIII VT would cream a standard auto R33 GTsT ;)

My TJ 3.5 Auto Magna would cream a Standard R33 auto GTsT ;)

did i say it would be standard? have you ever seen a completely standard import? my response assumed it would have an exhaust of some sort

but i would expect the kind of comment you made... after all you drive a commonwhore so you think yours is faster, and i drive a skyline - difference is i know mine is faster than a genIII commonwhore (been there, beaten that) so i go on my past experiences with my comments

oh, and if you're childish enough to think up an abusive reply then don't bother

EDIT: just re-read... you don't have a commo, sorry, but you are still wrong

what sort of import would beat it?

but only ones that a p plater could drive and insure?

have you checked out third party insurance?

...alternatively just save up some cash and get some experience in a shitty old runabout untill you can afford a faster import

remember to factor in the cost of pertol (bloody expensive these days)

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
