R33 Skyline gets raped

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

According to this guy, it was RWD and one turbo. He had said something about waiting for his "real " motor to get here from JAPAN. Thats all I redally know. That and he was talking baout only being able to run 3 psi.

Single turbo would definatly be the older RB25 DET which is a small T25 garrett and a 2.5 litre block. If he's whining he can only boost 3-4 lbs........somethings F---ked up or not working or he's clueless or lieing !lol :lol: There are plenty GT-s rb25's that run strong ....just doesent sound like his is a good example.
If you hand him his butt after he claims to have "his GOOD motor" in there and looses, he's a schmuck for showing up and giving bad representation and please bitch slap him for me. :rant:
I guess in reality " winning is winning"..........you could just deny him a run next time by saying..." if your not prepared to give me your best shot....go home and play a video game so you'll have a chance" :rotf:
.................Vinny :tup:

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

I blew my motor like 2 weeks ago. Im not really having job issues in terms of having one Ijust wish I had one that paid more. I am trying to get my business going but unfortunately its the slwo season. I finally got my ad back in the yellow pages but it wont come out til JAN and people probably wont really call until mar or so. Just gotta hold out til then. Then Ill be swimmin in the bucks again. I hope anyway.

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

It was turbo though. GTR or not, it was also a Skyline, secratary ornot, he got raped. When 20 people follow us to see whats going to go down between a SKYLINE and a Typhoon, youre damn right Im gonna soak it up if I killed him by 6 or so cars. I dont care how lame it is. . You sound like the guys on the local racing forum here, they make me want to croak.

I was just talking about how people think - Skyline is all that, but there are GT-R's and then Skylines. The guy you beat deserved to get beat.

Just providing some people some education.

I've had a Typhoon since 1992... I've been around a little bit

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

Thanks again Sean for letting me borrow your rims & tires to run those good times @ the last street legal drags. Seems people here don't believe what my Sy can run.

I think we're all on the same page now Sean.Its sad to see any car your passionate about being represented poorly,but it happens to all makes and models til they get their act together.
No one was really trying to steal his thunder of beating the Sky.
Sounded like he could use a boost anyway from what he said later...." engine blew" ! Major bummer.
I'll talk to you when I get in SoCal this week Sean !

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

Because I KNOW my RB26DETT AWD in stock form will make a mildly modded SY look like it was turned off. Its a hard pill to swallow ,I know, but its the bold facts.
Vinny

You sure about that? Are we talking quarter mile, or top end. Top end I agree with, but I'm not to sure about quarter mile, stock GTR to mildly modded Sy.

Also, the RB25DET ran from the R32 up to the end of the R34 I believe. From my clouded memory, the R34 years got a cylinder head upgrade in the form of the "NEO" motors. I believe they performed very similar to the earlier RB25's with some very minor gains in the power band. I wouldn't discredit an earlier RB25 just because of this though.

Also Tydango, have there been any updates on the Skyline import business lately? PM me if you'd like.

Sorry about the slow response...forgot to subscribe.
The R32 Gt-r was the lightest car with the R34 next in weight. The R33 was indeed the pig of the bunch by some margin and in stock weight and form,be the slowest overall.
You mentioned the RB25 and all my references tend toward the later RB26DETT only.
My remark about "SY slightly modded vs. RB26DETT" is of course a trash talk statement in that I realize these two compared are really quite similliar in make-up as far as weight,AWD. The main difference is auto-stick.....4.3 V/6 vs. 2.6 I-6........and any given advantages of aerodynamics which in this comparison , neither are too hot.
I'd estimate the R34 in stock trim with a competent driver (like Sean for example) could launch at 6500rpm and nail 11.80-12.90 with a trap of 104 mph ?
I don't see my SY with an Ultimate, 3-bar map,improved fuel delivery and the other slight mods getting that...would you ?
Please don't get me wrong here, I love my SY, I do. :tup:
Finding ways to lose weight in our Bricks and doing light mods to keep them somewhere in the "Reliable" daily driver zone will give us an edge towards edging up on the stock GT-R.
But the RB26 TT of mine isn't going to be in its heavy assed donar R33 chasis.......its going into a caged Datsun 240-Z shell with a target weight of 26-2800lbs. Along with some decent cams and turbos as well as exellent breathing exhaust and stand alone tune.
Certainly a more fitting test against a simmiliar built ,lighter SY perhaps ? Someday maybe if I'm lucky enough to complete the thing .........it could be invited to the KC nats as a spectator event to win or lose.
I would think we ALL would at least enjoy the Old Jap car with newer guts going against Americas best AWD !What a great show to see.
Maybe ,just maybe the 1.7 litre underdog can be balanced out by the weight of the SY's difference.
Just a thought for fun in the sun !It will be awhile before I'll get far with this Z anyway. Too many Irons in the fire. :rant:

Re: R33 Skyline gets raped

yeah, I was thinking of building a Nissan oldschool hard body pickup with an RB26DETT somewhere down the road for some fun
