It was no dishing. I LOVED the car before the TFTF films and the stupid NFS game. But now its a "common" thing. Every1 knows about it, that wasnt the case a few years ago when i absolutely adored it.

And what I said about fast of the line or not. Seen it with my own eyes. A Honda Civic CRX VTEC totally stripped plus some major NA tuning whooped the Skylines A** at a Show here.

That Skyline was putting out about 400 bhp. I just think she (the driver) would not take it to the limit I guess!

yes, true, but now how does a fully stripped out CRX with a mad modded engine truely show up a stock GTR? As i always say, compare apples to apples... You can mod out lots of cars to destroy stock competition, but the true test is how great you can compare two fully kitted out examples and then compare their racing pedigree... In all fairness, 1/4 mi. is only part of the equation in a true sporting machine... remove the slicks, and in a roadcourse, that super fast 1/4 mi CRX becomes a super finnikey unaccomplished car in comparison to that stock GTR, possibly even a GT-S... The GT-R is a true all around acomplished piece of atristic machinery in any version's day, wether it be the 32, 33, or 34...

That was what i meant to say. But forgot to post that part in my first post in this topic. Its a great piece of machinery but not for drag IMO. Road/track course it is!

BTW
CRX had 220 bhp vs Skyline 400 bhp

This satturday there was another race between st185 mk2 gt-four with a caldina engine swap and a skyline gts (tuned to 300hp).
The gt4 won! biggrin.gif Also if they were racing 1000 meters then the skyline would have probably won since it started to catch up after loosing about 4-5 car length of the start.

About all the video... if everything goes well pretty soon you will see lots of cool drag videos biggrin.gif
