IN question of SKYLINE GTR preformance...?**?


Tommykaira ZZII

........Ok guys since most of you..owns..(?) or knows about skylines..
I have a few question

..first is ( what is the biggest tire size can fit
on a r2/r33/34 without using wide bodykits?? )

....Sencond is ( what is the highest Gs recorded on a skyline gtr
in the 200ft skidpad??? "stock & tuned" )

...third is ( What are common problems on skyline such as maintianace
or any problems like tuning.." I heard something the computer controls
gets messed up..the active differentials dont work properly or somthing like that ..i also heard there is a lot of problem of r32 hydrolic ADC or
was it the 4 wheel drive system the HICAS of also r33......"?????? )

....Fourth is just my opinion ( do you think longer wheelbase on a skyline
such as the r33 preform better in handling or topspeed..than shorter wheelbase..?? )

Longer wheel base will be better for high speeds.

.95g on a 300ft stock

Moded I think I have seen a little over 1

Only probs that I have heard of is the tranny.

I've never had any problems with the actual engine or drivetrain....however, the internal electronics (as I believe you were suggesting have problems) I had pretty much everything fail within a year of each other....window switch, folding mirrors, rear window wiper, air conditioner temp reg, and the flow meters. Pretty much everything happened right after it hit the ten year mark.
No tranny problems ('cept it's a little stiff on cold mornings) or problems with AWD.
Oh....the car (even the new ones) will leak brake fluid if they sit for long periods of time without driving (2 months) but will seal again properly after a couple short drives.

We used to have a guy like this on Scoobynet!

Always thought he knew what he was on about, but in the end just drove people mad because of the pointless questions constantly being asked!!!

Tommykaira ZZII! What car do you drive, serioulsy???
:confused:

Guiddy

Oh look, I have been reading a bit, and what have I found???

"but settled down wid my civic.
which soon is goin to hit high 10s or low 11s wid a turbo upgrade
soon.. "

We have a phrase here in England!

It goes "What a load of bollocks!!!"

Have you ever been up a drag strip?

Do you have any pics of your highly modified fast RX7?

SkylineUSA
08-17-2001, 06:56 PM
Hey Guiddy,

Is that a pic of your car? Very Nice:) How many km do you have on it. I had a VTEC Integra, very revvy engine, loved getting into those extra valves and hearing the pitch of the engine change.:cool:

R33
08-17-2001, 08:14 PM
Yeah...that's a nice car Guiddy.

Tommi : biggest tyres for the 33 is 275. I am now using a set of 275/35/18. Do not know whether a 19 wheel would fit. Haven't seen one on a GTR though.

Highest G? No, GTRs don't wear G string! They also do not have G spot, if they do, I have not found the spot yet!:D :D

Common problem: my 33 is so good there is almost no problem at all. The gear fluid leaks a bit after track duty when I used the stock shifter (apparently the seal is not good). After changing to C's short shifter, the problem's gone.
Hicass/Attessa/electronics - no problem whatsoever. (my car is 6 years old).
Other normal problems? YES. SOME JACKASS IN HONDA CIVIC/BMW/PORSCHE/FERRARI WHO THINK THEIR CAR IS SO DAMN FAST WOULD ALWAYS TAILGATE MY GTR ALTHOUGH I AM IN NO MOOD TO DRIVE FAST. THIS IS ANNOYING!:mad:

Handling : R33 is the longest of the 3 models. The 32 handles better. Top speed? Don't know.

I huve a 94 civic DX hatch...wid a b18c swap and a few bolt ons..
I had my civic since 97 and the rx7 was my brother which he gave to
me in 98 when he got a truck...back then my civic was stock..until
in summer 2K i got a b18c...but b4 that i hooked up the rx7 with my
brothers help we got it around 306hp @ wheels/it had awingwest
knight style bodykit/koni shocks/eibach springs/RH rims c5..it was
all my brother and freinds who hooked it up...cuz i dont know anything
about rotaries...but it had 69K miles on it and i was later goin to college.i sold it...so now im planning to turbocharge my civc
a t4 garret should put out aleast 400hp or 500hp to get me 10s is my
goal..but now im having second doubts cuz now i want a "subaru wrx"..

If you knew rotaries eng dont last to long..atleast when its around 80k
you need to replace it..

Yeah, It's mine. The pic is a little old now, as the car has been lowered more since and it has a few cosmetic changes.

The engine is at this moment stock, but sounds great when it gets to 8000 rpm! I have ordered a Trust Airnx Induction kit from Japan, which should be here next week.
She has 61,000 miles on her now, it's a 1997 car.

I want to spend a bit of money on the engine now, but unlike others on this site, I will always be aware of what it can and can't do!

lol I know the feeling. :) lmao... I had this Civic Si try to "race" me in my R33. Needless to say I put him in his place. But alas... no more GT-R for me... mmmm.... I could go for an R34 right know...

BTW, Tommy, what kind of turbo does you RX-7 have? Just wonderin'... :)

Here you go! 19s on an R33...

Tommykaira ZZII
08-18-2001, 10:16 PM
the reason i asked these question is becuase it relates to handling preformance.....I was asking the largest tire size in width not rims/ diameter..

the latest i readed about skyline was in ssc mag ...when a R33 registered
9.6g with nismo 18x10 275/18 and the Blackbird R34 only 9.5 with the same tire size as R33...

I want to know if there is any skylines making 1.0g or over..??

I have been searching around websites the biggest i seen yet used
was the yellow vielside R32 wearing a 315s on the rear but with wide bodykit.

Its cause my cousin friend supra runs 1.10gs on the skidpad wearing
275/17 in front..315/17 in rear ..with tuned sport suspension(i dont know
what kind his using)..

Also the problems of HICAS 4 wheel steering...it usaully accurs in racing when handling become a is important..so they usually lock up the HICAS.. Like the Rhsy Millen UPRD R33 this problem accured when he
was racing on pikespeaks stock class...The R33 handling became dangerous..so he lock the HICAS. He also had problems with the trans..

I was wondering if that occurs more offen in skylines?
also if the HICAS is locked how does it affect daily drivin or its behavior?

And one more thing..I was reading my old mag...About a guy in Hongkong brought is skyline to the states..Blew his motor..cause
of a faulty fuel pump..it was basically a stock GTR..so he had to bore about 1mm then replaced then scorched piston with a nismo..and mostly everything was replaced.

I was wonder if that also occurs to other R32`s so, when you get a
a r32 you have to replace the fuel pump immediatly...???

ATTENTION!!: this is dearly important to all readers, Remember that EVERYTHING you read in magazines and on the internet is 100% true and accurate, and shouldnt be questioned at all(THE SAME GOES FOR WHAT YOUR GOVERNMENT TELLS YOU)....hahah, sorry i just hate getting email notifications telling me there is an update in the forum and its just some dumb shit from tommy again, =Þ

Tommi, in your earlier post you mentioned ADC - what's that?:confused: Or do u mean ACD -active centre diff like the one on the evo7. If u meant acd - well the gtr don't come with one. U can however fit one - like my HKS ETC.
Problem with HICAS & fuel pump? As far as a daily driver gtr is concerned, I have not heard of that! If u consider a one-off incident as normal, then I have nothin' to say.
Even on my gtr, which I trash around the track and also drive it to work almost daily, no problem with the HICAS or the fuel pump. The secret is to maintain the car properly. Ensure all the fluids are in good condition and always sufficient. GTRs need to be treated with respect - just like any other performance car. Don't expect to trash it around without getting to know it and taking care of its needs. In real world, treat it as you will your pretty girlfriend! Then, she will reward u well and u will never have to look any other way no more.
:D

Guiddy, that is one hell of a GTR I say! The wheels really look awesome. I wonder what's the tyre's width? I know that car belongs to a tuner with about 800 bhp, if I am not mistaken. Last read, he wanted to have 1000 hp. Wonder whether he has achieved that.

plus you gotta consider that the reservers on ebay are most likely near 45 grand for the r33 and at least 65 for the r34. and tommy, once again, please stfu, you drive a civic, nuff said, and on that note, none of have ever seen any pics of these cars that you supposedly own or have owned, and i know that anyone with a fresh car takes a picture of it and carries it int their wallet right next to their girlfriend/wife and kids...:bandit:

It belongs to the guy who does our tuning, just up the road next to the Silverstone Racing Circuit, Option Motorsport

He has various levels of power output, depending on the amount of boost he wants to run! Around 630bhp for day to day, 800bhp for those moments of madness!:D

The wheels are the Blitz items, I'll find out width, offset etc for you next time I See him, as they fit really well!

1000bhp? You bet! Nana can't leave it alone!:rolleyes:

Guiddy put up his 1/4 mile time here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t5678.html). I haven't seen yours yet.

And by the way, it's the "Assclown Award," and so far, you've totally earned it. :rolleyes:

1/4 mile times won't count without a timing slip!

Who said I wanted a car to race? And I don't tend to stop by Santa Pod on my way to work every morning, so why would I buy a car for that?

The common view amongst the motoring press is the 5th Gen isn't as good looking as the 4th Gen, but handles even better.
The H22A engine is one of the best Honda ever made, you were right about that, and the Prelude was too expensive compared to other cars in it's class to sell.

I tried an Integra Type -R when I bought it, but it wasn't suitable for the computer business I work in, the image wasn't right.

You don't know my circumstances, you don't know why I bought it so why make such a stupid comment?:rolleyes:

It just all goes to prove I am trying to reason with a child!

I mean, why does your Profile say you own an 11 second Civic HB? You don't, simple as that!

If it is such a great car, which it will be if it can run a 13.8, why isn't there a nice little pic with your sig, and why don't you hang out in the Civic forum chatting about all the mods you must have done to get it that fast?

I know the reason why, but are you going to be man enough to admit it?

Finally, your name doesn't happen to be DAMIEN does it?

So, i am now gay? That really shows the mental level you are on. I am not the one running around here quoting text book questions. Bragging about something that I cannot prove I have. I must say the Prelude is in a much higher class than a old Civic HB.


On the other hand, anyone interested in starting a fantasy car club ;)

Tommykaira ZZII, aka [][][][],

What question never got answered?

Do you just write about what you read? Have you ever had a wrench in your hand, if so what have you done? Have you installed a turbo system, rebuilt a rear end, install a tranny, changed a cam, heck have you even changed a set of spark plugs.

What mods have you done to your CIVIC to acheive a 13.8 1/4. Did you see F and F, just install bigger N2O bottles, that will get you there:D

And if i did have a car i liked to boast about and brag that it was better than everyone elses, I WOULD HAVE A FUCKING PICTURE TO PROVE IT, but that obviously is too hard for you to comprehend. why dont you go back to your stupid Matchbox Cars and get the fuck out of this forum.:finger: :finger: :finger: :flipa: :flipa: :finger: :finger: :flipa: :flipa:
