Ive got one! For about 2 more weeks :rolleyes:. I think the XR6 would get up...but as always it would depend on the driver. On the entry to a freeway once from a set of lights I was slightly in front but I had my best launch ever! and it was only to 100 maybe that extra power would start to tell once the speeds got up

Not even comparable. Straight line times the XR6 turbo would destroy a bog stock R33. There engines have so much more 1/4 mile potential as well as power is dead easy to pull out of them. As a track car it is a different story all together...

here is a link to stock vs stock 0-100km and 0-400m. Not a lot in it really at the end of the day if they are both manual the better driver will win. That said I have driven both in manual form and the Skyline to me was a much nicer car to drive. Lighter and smoother clutch and gear box. You can really fell the weight of the XR6 when cornering to.

cheers

A quote from that dude that owns the XR6T.

"Heya all i know this is an ls1 forum but a few people on here know me so i thought id let them know where im at now

Picked my car up from HPF today after having the engine rebuilt it makes 330rwkw at 3000rpm and max power 391.5rwkw with the factory turbo running out of puff looks like time for a bigger turbo

But what is impressive is the tourqe 12000N of tractive effort on the dyno which even HPF were amazed at

The car has a c9 3 speed fully manual shift auto in it now and in top gear at 100kph you can floor it and light up the tyres all you want

Hopefully is the rain holds out i will make it to calder tomorrow night now i got to get the power to the track"

330rwkw at 3000rpm.. Thats flamin awesome.

I've said before and I'll say it again..

There's no replacement for displacement. :O

Had a couple of run in's with XR6T's.. problem is they have all the power from the second they put the pedal down..

while I have to wait till 2nd gear to really start the power coming on.. my cars stock except cat back exhaust.. by which stage i'm doing 80/100 in a 60 zone.. not good..

maybe with the 8psi full time mod it'd be different.. will endevaur to g-up someone next time I see one..

:O

I would have guessed the xr6t. power to weight it has it, and then it also has a fair slog of bottom end grunt from the extra 1.5 litres or so. I still think it says a whole bunch for an up to 12 year old 2.5 litre car that it can more or less keep up with the new meat. .3 of a sec is bugger all!

How do you know there cars are stock? Lots of XR's going around with just the EDIT which gives them about 20-40rwkw more.

Who would win this drag race?

Both manuals, both bone stock.

I have only race 1 XR6T and it was auto;

Background info on my skyline its r33 but has rb20 size turbo (i was making 170rwhp at the time i race the XR6T)

It was equal untill i change gear, his was auto had a smoother change and pull ahead by abit, i think stop cuz gf gave me an eye look.

So basic 0-60km it was equal with my 170rwhp

i'd say 80 - 90% of them are stock that you see on the roads..

most people wouldn't void a warranty on a new car that's already pretty quick as it is..

    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
    • Literally looks like direct port nitrous haha
    • They are in fact just nozzles. They are there only to produce a spray pattern and limit flow. The injector itself is what I use to control flow to the 7x nozzles. My old system had no injector and only PWM the pump. This lead to a lot of inconsistencies, and poor atomization at low pressure when the pump was ramping up.
