yeah its only a r33 gts....its not a gtr
I fairly sure hes not gonna be that good a driver either as hes going from a big old dirty 4wd into a r33 and hes had no experience driving performance cars

I put my money on the xr6. Those skylines are tricky to launch and very laggy stock. I say you'll have a car length on him to 120 km.

I have driven GTR's, and standard GTS's as me and my brother used to import jap cars. And if he knows how to keep it on boost and actually use some revs you won't get a chance to get in front. GTS's are good on boost and the rb25det also has a little torque to help it get there...

If he takes time changing gears, doesnt keep it on boost and isnt a skilled driver you'll have a good chance if you don't miss a beat yourself..

What are the skylines running stock over the quarter?

At the drags i had a perfect launch with quick reaction time, and a 14 sec skyline beside me took his time had a 2 sec reaction time and still caught me over the finish line lol.

take a much weight out of your car...but without the other guy realising...spare tyre, jack, oil, floormats, coolant ect. it will save weight and make you faster
