Probably your biggest problem will be if its dead stock or lightly modded, they make easy power and a well set up one will launch well too thats a gtst R33

Im so suprised at how many of you have a low 14 second car to be able to beat these skylines! A STOCK manual R33 GTST can run a 14.3s 400m time. 0-100 in 6.9s. That is as quick a new BF XR6T depending on driver skill. Take the car for what it is, a sports car built to go fast in comfort. Take the falcon for what it is, a family car designed to do 300,000kms+ whilst carrying 4 people and towing a trailer. Don't keep thinking your 4 door 1700kg falcon is a sports car.

A bit off topic but my auto BA XR6T did a 13.83 stock standard. A BF auto should be bit of an improvement over that.

Yeh there does seem to be ALOT of difference in times that XR6Ts and typhoons are running. some mags are struggling to get into the 13s in a phoon whilst some have reported mid-low 13s...

Seems to be a lot of speculation here.

Well, I don't know how fast you're going to run to, but I ran against an R33 GTST with intake and exhaust mods in my ST. My mods were just Xfroce Extractors. We were all but even at the 660ft mark but he pulled 0.3s on me after that.

Timeslip can be found here.
