My lowly little 2 litre skyline which doesnt really have that many mods...

-3" exhaust from Turbo back

-Tuned ECU

-10PSI

-Stock Cooler

-Daiken Button Racing Clutch

-POD Filter

-5speed manual



had a drag at calder park raceway in melbourne against a 5.7litre V8 SS Automatic with a full exhaust and extractors which was putting out 300kw or 400HP to those who have no idea what a KW is https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Was a legal drag which me and my gf went to (girlfriend owns a twin turbo soarer with a 3.5" catback with a 5" tip and a HKS pod filter) not long ago.



Ended up lining up and getting a pretty good launch... he got a little ahead but then i started pulling him in and passing him quite easily.



Ended up running a 14.08 sec @ 93.4MPH which is a decent ET for that low MPH

he ran a 14.7



Then lined up against my gf... i ran a 14.5 (ouch) and she ran a 14.8 (didnt help she didnt do a burn out before lining up after they wet the track for her and she had traction control on and power set to norm https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...)

However the next one i got done with a very bad launch https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png i ran a 14.8 and she ran a 14.2 @ 101MPH with the same things still turned on.



I jumped in her car and turned everything to power and OD and no TRC and ran a 13.8 @ 102MPH

Damn dude, that is freakin awesome!!! Great kill!! There is nothing about a Skyline that is "lowly"!! And your gf whips a Soarer! How hot is that!?!? Most tuners don't even know what a Soarer is! You're living most tuner's dream man, keep it up!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

Dude they are seriously both sweet as hell man!! Nice old school wheels on the Skyline, and the Soarer is just completely menacing! Props to you both!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif I would love to do the same with my gf, but her 94 Honda Accord just doesn't have the same effect beside my FD... Oh well....

i love FDs

i was going to import one for race use but then i found the perfect FC3S GTR https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png has a T78 and V Mount triple core intercooler and heaps of other stuff...



so the skylines going and im buying a crap everyday car and using the FC for the track.



still trying to get the money together in time before he sells it... hopefully he doesnt

Holy sweet ass, intimidating, blow your doors off, and looks better than most cars on the road FC!! Must... fight.. envy.....

^ NO DOUBT, HEARD THAT!!!!!!!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif

WHoa! That ride is sweet as hell. Well done watson! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png Im fucked up..... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png man that thing is pretty...good luck getting it.

nice kill....nice fc

wait, 14.7 from 400hp? How the **** does that work?

tried working that out myself...

they are quite a heavy car... about 1750kgs or something... and the auto box is pretty pox.



it says 14.78sec @ 98MPH on the slip...



Holden has a HSV GTS which is the same engine and supposed same output but with a claimed 0-400m of 13.7 for the auto... but HSV is the special vehicle section of holden.

thats one hot lookin car

50963

Holden always thinks there HSV are so great. Slow peices of **** if you ask me. Have you raced against a XR6 turbo (Ford), there not to bad.

But still Ford/Holden same ****.

what are extractors? i;ve never heard of that one a chevy 350

Extractors = Header pipes.

Don't mind us, were just...........Diferent.

I would agree especially since 400m is less than a 8 feet less than we run here in the states.



I think the guy was full of **** saying he was pushing 400rwhp. More likely 400FWHP which converts out to 325 rwhp with a 14.7 is still slow but a little easier to swallow with a bad driver.

its 300kw at the fly not rw... i thought i put that in the original post.



ive raced a stock ford XR6 turbo and beat it but i raced one with an exhaust and chip and got thrashed https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png but beat it again another night in my gfs car https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png so much easier to launch in her car and get a decent time.

thanks https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png....headers and an exhaust doesn't equal 400hp

ummmm... ive seen the dyno sheet... the guy that owns the car is my Team Manager. Has "headers" https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png and a full exhaust (hes trying to explain it to me now...) an S pipe... whatever that is... airflow box... im guessing hes talking about the air intake...



on the dyno it put out 298kw @ the fly which works out to be 399.62HP

I have seen that FC on japanese yahoo

thats the guy im trying to buy it off

sweet skyline

is it a holden?...ls1 v8 or ls6? what was the baseline hp?

300KW is from a V8 and you can get LS1 and II

what body kit is on that fc? very tastefull

Is the soarer red?

that kit is a mixture... the front bar is R Magic and the skirts are either R Magic too or G Sports.



baseline...



not too sure what they put out as a base... i think about 300HP at the fly... maybe a little less

was the Soarer sold in the US?

Nice kill!



Soarers are tight as hell but I can't remember if they are equivalent to the Lexus SC300 or Toyota Supra... Both used the JZZ 3.0 if I am not mistaken. Anybody know what this car is in America???

The Soarers I know of either had a 2.5T or a 4.0 V8 (Lexus SC400). As far as I'm aware, the Supras are 3.0 TT or non-T.



I'll vouch for the Commodore's sluggish performance from 400 rwhp, they are a big car and the LS1 lacks some torque down low compared to other motors...
