Default E30c versus Skyline GTS - lil video :D

Had a little tussle tonight with a rather tasty Skyline R33 GTS (with a gtr bodykit, or thats what the owner said)

After 5 mins of following him, getting a bit bored at him hooning about after he overtook me like I was stood still, I decided to show him who is boss


http://www.e30cosworth.co.uk/video/skyline-v-e30.3gp


The speedo was reading "off the clock" when i went past him (and that is 150 on the clock)

Stopped and had a chat with the owner of the 'liner too, got some of the usual excuses "its misfiring at 5500rpm, it doesn't boost properly, its not setup, i couldn't get grip (at 130mph no grip on a bone dry road? )


anyway, was my first kill, and I was chuffed He said his speedo was reading 140 when we overtook him



All I can say is "Gwaaaaaaaaannnn ya fucker"

Rhys - need wheel spigot rings matey

other people - use Quicktime or Realplayer to view


Crazy thing is, the E30 was picking up speed rather quickly aswell, it just pulls and pulls and pulls - Might have something to do with the new chip from the legendary Stu @ MSD

gtst are around 250bhp std and weigh more than a sapphire cos, stage 1 tune takes em to around 330bhp after that it gets expensive so most stay stage 1

either way the culling has begun

Single turbo RB25 engines can run ALOT more than 550bhp!!!!!

http://www.projectgtst.com

Thats going to be around 900bhp on Gas I would think...

Good little vid by the way

Lee - I aggree, they are a fantastic engine , but the way this chump was banging on about having 550bhp on a standard intercooler and turbo, with standard exhaust bar a de-cat and a backbox would make me think otherwise for his car
