| You say you also beat an r33. It must of been a non turbo and probably an auto otherwise it would of flogged your backside. There must of been something wrong with your mates aurion. Take one for a test drive and then hop back into you car thats the best way to feel the difference. Nice looking XR mate. |

stock r33 manual gts-t's (hard to find that are actually un-modified)are nothing to write home about, but they respond well to mods and a good tune. |

| dunno, but "james88" 1/8th mile is impressive for what it is. Like i said, with that 660ft time wouldve been a low 14sec 1/4 mile |

| I reckon james XR wouldn't have a problem beating an R33 GTS-T, i raced one a few weeks ago, beat him off the line and to 100km and he would slowly pass me at 130km, also raced 3 times. James XR would ripp my car aswell. |

Dont know how you beat him unless the guy cant drive or his car is f**k. An R33 0-100 stock manual is 0-100 in 6.18 and thats on wheelspinning 16s. Autos are a fair bit slower but would still be below 7. A Ford EF or EL XR isnt that quick{unless quite heavily modded.} I have an EL ghia, Tickford Red Engine, Tickford intake, Exhaust, Extractors, LSD and its a slow slug in comparison. I know XR manauls are faster than Ghia Autos but i would be lucky to pull a mid 8 0-100. XR`s in manaul stock form are good for an flat eight or even high seven stock. obviously more mods the faster but i defenatly fail to see how your car can be that quick with the abovementioned mods. Cheers mate and keep up the good work on the falc. |

Regular Aurion's are supposed to have 200KW.
(I thought the TRD got 240KW?) |

they are still advertising for the supercharged trd aurion so i dont think they have been taken of the market.
although they may have droped the boost and maybe lowered the factory output to conserve engine life but they are still selling them... |

if thats the official nissan time for an r33 gts-t, i should get my a*** whipped every time i race one.
i haven't raced many but i've beaten a couple of manuals 0-100ish even with what appears to be a 10 inch cannon lol. |

A lot of owners are stupid and put big exhausts and kits on them and usually they are non turbo autos. An r33 turbo should flog you easily if they arnt as said earlier either non turbo, dont know how to drive, f**k car, or not bothering. Most 33 turbo manuals are modded to and usually with 17s or larger rims and air filter and exhausts reach 100 in the high 5s. I cant see how your ford is that quick. Cheers |

| I no they are quicker its just i think the ford can get off the line heaps quicker because its pretty much instant power when you plant it. With the skyline they have to hit boost to have any power. The only way i think a GTS-T would beat a falcon off the line is if hes spooling it up and drops the clutch, which isn't anygood either because there gonna spin like crazy |

0-100 is a load of s**t, because f**k measure it with the stop watches on there mobile phones.
I call shenanigans on stock GTS-Ts doing 0-100 in 6.18.
I also call shenanigans on lightly modded ones doing it in the 5s.
Give me quarter mile times. |

Man i wish my either of my fords could take off faster than a R33. The instant power is defantly there for ford but its to be expected for a engine nearly double in capacity.R33s would still be infront by top of first gear if not earlier. Even with fords low down torque. A ford manual would be able to get off the mark quicker than an auto sky but it would be very short lived until the skyline would rocket past like the ford was stopped.They mostly all have lsd and fairly good ratios which helps them get along. As Far as quarter miles go 14.3 is the time quoted for a stock manual. With light mods and bigger wheels as most have it will easily do it in 13s. Just to clarify times quoted arnt from mobiles they are quoted from nissan and importdriver and plenty of mags and are well agreed upon. Hope this clears things up. Cheers guys and keep it off the street.!!xr |
