Which Car?

[Jimlad]

Ok... a bit bored of the MR2 at the moment, could possibly get a swap for a R32 Skyline.

What do you think ?

[ricomr2]

Dont like the wheels but apart form that its nice....

[Jimlad]

I can get Chrome wheels or deep dish wheels... there's a choice... lol.

Supposedly sub 4 seconds 0-60 car :)

[Chappers]

Looks like it's time for something different..?

Skyline is nice, deep-dished - oh yes

[gordypix]

Isn't the R32 the model that Rocket Ronnie breaks all-comers with at track days..... :bookworm:

You gonna spend a lot of £££ on it if you get it Jimbo?

Could be a real winner matey

Been told they are heavy on tit, & parts are hard to find, could be wrong though.

[Jimlad]

What ??

[Gareth B]

I'm saying go for the Skyline. I think your bored with the MR2 and have changed it's looks twice.

There is tons you can do to the Skyline so should keep you busy (and skint) for a while.

aye!! What mods is this thing supposed to have?? As I mentioned your other post there well known for there massive lack of traction, in an R32 that's a pretty mighty call....especially if that is just sacked on lowered springs.

That shiny saucer is indeed the top of a big fat heat sucking pod filter :P

For some REAL LIFE times here is some examples of some Skylines here in NZ:

R32 GTS-t

13.4 in the 1/4

Not sure of the HP

Skyline R33 GTST

Estimated 300hp @ flywheel

Best Quarter 13.9 @ 106mph on public road with Gtech.

210hp at rear wheels

14.2 1/4 at Kwinana motoplex on street tyres set at 24 psi (R33 GTS-T)

R32 gts-t 3 inch exhaust, K&N filter, headlight out, VR4 i/c,

12psi, hoosier dirt tyres 14.2 at 92mph

power? 130-140 rwkw est, compared with similar cars

R33 GTS25-t

13.3 @ 186kms (Gtech)

Mods - i/c, boost, unichip, vg30det turbo, exhaust, and 255's (which are bald).

14.3 1/4 GTS-4 with exaust/filter and a good clutch.

HP? almost stock

I ran a 13.4 at 111 mph. I have a slower 60ft time do to the lag problem. But she pulls harder through second and third. As you can see by the mph. (R32 GTS-T)

No offence intended but your talking a rb26dett engine, Its up there with the 2JZGTE for huge power and torque.

Im a big fan of the 3sgte...but you'll never see one of those running 1000bhp, there's no replacement for displacement

Jim, just go and buy another car and stop posting about cars you want ;)
