ive always been a fan of the 1/2JZ but holy crap.

All I want for Christmas is to be able to do third gear rolling burnouts.

Meh, give me 300hp and I will be totally happy. Its no fun driving a car that roasts the tires so easily.

I'd rather drive a slow car "fast" then a fast car slow.
And let's be honest, no matter how great we all think we are behind the wheel, most of us cannot come close to taking full advantage of the power our cars came with stock. More power is just a mask for the part of our car that could most benefit from improvement.

I has a big turbo 2JZ in my E30. Its fun.

Exactly. Have you ever done a track day in an e30? If you do, you will pass almost every Corvette on the track.

Bretts turbo m52 embarrassing a gtr.






I believe hes close to running 9s.

Thats because of drivers not the car. Equal drivers, Corvette would destroy an e30. More hp, more brakes better cg. Come on.

That's exactly the point I was making...

Most people can't utilize higher power, better handling cars. Hence the reason why I'd rather drive a slow car fast (e30) vs a fast car slow (corvette).

Because they start with a car above their skill level. You have to make that jump some time. My car is 2700lbs 350ish hp. Just cause you have all the power does not mean you have to use it. I guess that's just common sense to me and some people miss that. There is something to be said for ringing out a car to the max though. I loved my s14 for that but getting passed sucked. Lol

I would still rather have the GTR. You can make a Yugo fast it's still not a GTR. I got stuck in the hp wars. Now I I'm thinking of selling my M3 and getting a GTR. I'd still probably get 700 hp out of it though. Lol

[delatlanta1281]

you people bore me. Ohhh id rather drive the car to its limits than limit the drivability....
dude shoved a ton of fun into a light car. it's fun dummy. He isn't trying to beat vettes around VIR.

Did someone say 2j?



This is actually my friends car. Stopped by yesterday and he had the motor ripped out, melted a couple pistons. Apparently his boost controller wigged out and maxed the s256.

In it's current form: Except now a s256, the turbo he was using was waayy too big and wouldn't even hit 7psi until 6k or so.

Keeping off topic.. The GTR is an amazing piece of engineering but I would never want a car thats going to correct mistakes that I make on the track. To many electronics. I dont see it as a drivers car. More of a rich guy that cant/doesnt want to build a car and cant/doesnt want to learn to be a better driver type of car.
