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..

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
