Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

could you maybe, just maybe, try proper english, so we don't get headaches reading your babble?

FYI.
a 302 powered gt40 will not hit 230.
the aero packages on those cars will not have you hitting 230 in the 60's trim.
don't come here and BS about a car you clearly know not much about.
just b/c there are people here who know skylines, don't think for a second that anyone here knows nothing else.

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

ok so there are videos to prove that.. but there are many many more videos to prove that skylines arnt junk. they may not be really good wit what your muscle cars are good at, but dont condemn it.

but, to be more offensive, you took fords best or one of the best car. so i have the right to choose nissans best car. i choose the r390 gt1! hah, beat that!

What tranny are you running?

I take it you are useing the Aussie 351C heads, rather than the sucky US 4bbl heads. Do you any flow numbers?

What are your cam specs?

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

lets see them do it then??
GTR's are crap because they havnt got the all around performance...drag...corners...power plus they look like a civic on steroids..
you eva tried to hav a F^uck in the back of em???
not easy...and when isolated into a catagory like drag they cant even beat a corolla!!!
some people might find them a good looking car but they just dont do it for me.

Your intitled to your own opinion, albeit very biased.

Drag, yes, they really cannot compare, but they were never intended for the 1/4 mile.

Corners, ok this is where it sort of like the twilght zone? How do come to this conclusion?


R32, looks like a Civic. Yea, like the falcon looks like a Metro!

Re: 2 Fast 2 Furious GAS BLOWING

i have a video of a GT40 replica and the fastest Skyline In New Zealand (sure its a gay place but still) the skyline has a 700hp race engine.
it races the GT40 to the beach and back and the GT40 out runs it.
this may be becasue of the very low body roll of the GT40 and the mid rear mounted engine.
but its not a curcuit race so it might of been that the GT40 had more power ova the R33 and the R33 neva had a chance to out corner it.

and what is more fun. cornering is a sport, drag racing is for people that can't corner a vehicle in a save manner.

everyone can kick on a gaspedal. but few can get a car around a corner on the edge.

and what is more important. torque says some much more than power. and turbo engines have lots of torque. it is torque that propel you forward.

He and it is fine that you don't like the looks. (it wasn't good if everbody liked the same car) but say it on a more 'relaxed' way.

if seen that video, lets say it is a movie...everything is scripted. not a very strong argument.
