Re: Skyline Gtr??
sorry for the late reply I was away on vacation. When I said "nowhere near stock" it was a little of an exaggeration-(spelling?) I meant it as in comparison to the camaro. The evo claimed he ran mid 12's at the track and I didnt get the specific build of it but basically lots of bolt-ons, turbo, cams, tuning. The skyline is an R-32 GT-R. Its a legit GT-R imported from England long ago. Im not certain of everything and there is more done to it than I can recall, but it has Turbo back exhaust, intake, ecu, new rear end, I dont think he actually had the turbos put on when it was at the shop. I imagine a big part of it was the driver. I havent met many people that were more capable at the wheel than my friend with the camaro meanwhile the kid in the evo didnt know what the hell he was doing. I know for a fact that the LS-1's are underated. I dont know how fast the R-34's are stock or running max boost so idk. Like you said unless there are axact specs and time slips its hard to really say what would happen. The camaro also smoked the evo from a dead stop. It didnt even get the launch on him. With good tires and a good driver, they can hook up just as well. Ive only managed maybe 1-2 car lengths on a launch againt the camaro, then hes right there. :dunno:
CarbonFiber AWD said:Keep in mind there are several combinations available for the Skylines. Was it a R33 ? R34 ? Are you positive it wasn't a GT-S and NOT a GT-R ?
Whats nowhere near stock ? If it didn't have uprated turbos and full exhaust swaps etc.......its most likely just cosmetic engine mods.
From what I've seen with regards to any LS-1 cars on juice and heads.....a stock max boosted GT-R R34 would step out 4-6 car lengths on awd launch and continue stretching to the traps.
These bench races are impossible to gauge with out real specs of the builds.
Still fun to hear about them though.
Maybe Sean can post up some modded results in the 1/4 for the differences in a GT-S to the GT-R to get a better understanding of these curious animals.??
