  • he jumped the gun.

  • would not a awd drivetrain get you down the strip a bit faster

  • @Tj1056 NO.. awd only heats up rear tyres ,so front spins on launch...then horse power loss via front drive shafts...then you have torque steer isues like you can see, you dont get that with 2 wd...and you dont have big slicks,in other words a much harder system to go real fast with...time and big money

  • @OHNGAI I dont see why not FWD get down the tracks just as fast!.... you can put slicks all the way around...

  • @OHNGAI

  • @Tj1056 a fwd powers only 2 wheels,so only the drive wheels nice and sticky...when you have 4 wheels geting power but only 2 are hot and sticky and the other 2 are cold , you gona have problems

  • @OHNGAI you can do a burnout in a awd... -_-

  • @Tj1056 not to the extent required for drags...otherwise all GTRs would be doing what you claim

  • new zealand kick ass

  • Why does this have Australia written all over the video? There is a few like this on YouTube. It's from NZ

  • fuck me what a launch!

  • Thats not australias GTR its New zealands. They wish they owned it

  • you australians need to load these 7 and 8 sec skyline's up on a barge and bring them to the USA for our Imports vs Domestic's shootouts, you would represent hard with these beasts.....

  • Hell yes. Fucking sick races. Unless its in a class with the like outlaws n shit.

  • Over here on the east coast we have an awesome imports vs domestics at MIR raceway, these cars would compete is WS (wild street) and would be surrounded by 7 and 8 sec stangs and low low 9 sec street class honda's, alot of cars shipped from Puerto Rico for this event also

  • that car is not australian, its from new zealand :))

  • @TurboGSR96 Except that it's from NZ :) But yea, Au could sent their's over... if all you want in 8 seconds. :D

  • its 4x4

    60% rwd

    40% fwr

    ``BEAST``

  • I dont see anything special about getting a 5-8L engined car to go a 400m straight in 7 secs. Getting a 2,6-2,8L to 6-7 secs, now thats something.

  • Whats funny, is they can do it without turbo/nitrous/blower

    Its call n/a

  • I havent seen a single naturally aspired

    V8 doing 7 sec run while running on gasoline. V8s are just about cubic inches. They still are great engines overall, but i think the RB26DETT is even more great. Its about technology.

  • As was said bullshit.

    Any rwd old 8 that can compete with this has good money spent on it and isnt even in the same class as they will have massive tubs, slicks ect.

    Find me something running similar size slicks as this with a standard chassis. Doubt you will find one.

  • You're knocking someone about getting an engine in 7s without needing large displacement, but you're claim to fame is getting one in 7s without forced induction. It's a double edged sword... ie. not too many n/a 2.0 7s out there... It's just about which direction you're into personally. Unless you're a Spiro Pappa's type character...

  • I would take Skyline over a V8 anyday. Though i like V8s too...

  • that was pretty darn fast

  • Is it just me or did the sign say he did 245?

  • Its 245KPH not MPH

  • bye bye american boats :) import tuning the best!!

  • Not so much . .

    i'de like to see an import run in the 4 second range like top fuel American Muscle does .

    And before you judge me . .

    I drive an STi with 450WHp . . S i aint just an import basher lol

  • You think a top fuel engine is even remotely close to your standard V8? Do you know how much a top fuel engine cost? Over 50 grand. Let's be realistic in our comparisons here.

  • Didn't say they were cheap . .

    Funny car's cost about $2000/sec down the 1/4 and Rails are around $1000/Sec

    But there are still THOUSANDS of Guys out there running 7's with home built Small blocks

    (5 guys at my local track run 6-8 seconds consistently every Friday night)

    Most have less money into their car's then most do in their daily driver ;0

    Just some food for thought

  • "But there are still THOUSANDS of Guys out there running 7's with home built Small blocks

    (5 guys at my local track run 6-8 seconds consistently every Friday night)"

    Hmm... mind taking some video of these 6-second-Friday-guys racing, and posting it here? Im pretty sure that there are also THOUSANDS of Guys running 7 secs with home-built imports.

  • thank you! Thats like oh my friends turbo busa will beat a stock 94 civiv si-uhh duh?

  • my friend has a big block that runs 7.80 190 mph on cam 2 gas. no turbo ,nitros,blower all motor in a 1980 camaro i think it weighs 2900 pounds , ill find out when he racing next and post a video of it

  • That would be a tube frame, this car is sub chasis,, overall shape of the car is intact,,,any body can run 7s with a tube frame which will accommodate those huge Rear slicks,,,

  • you wish

  • what enginge? the rb26dett?

  • yes sirrr

  • rb26det mate

  • oh yeah that would be more accurate i guess one GIGANTIC fuckin turbo not 2

  • depends on the engine really...but for the most part 1 turbo will do the trick! :)

  • made from 100 prcnt kiwi boy. one of the hardest engines ever built on land

  • a 13b 1300cc rotary would kill most ur yank tanks out of the box looks speed conerning etc go the rx7

  • I totally agree!

  • Lol, really now?

  • its australia

  • dont get me wrong, i love rotaries, but why do u claim that a 13b would kill "yank tanks" out of the box, yet ur sn is vteca lol

    btw the r32 is in now way an american yank tank.

  • sounds like a rotary at idle

  • Please come to America so we can show you how to run the camera you made.

  • god damn that was fukin sick

  • Typical import drag car... You can make all of the HP ya want...but they can't hold the track... YAWN

  • ever see muscle take a corner

  • yup...

  • successfully?

  • The viper was winning Lemans for the pas 5 years, before the vette took over. That little import saver, "muscle cars can't turn" has no meaning any more.

  • Teflon...ya beat me to it

  • can you say the same about stock viper or any other muscle car.

  • yup...the Ford GT

  • Veyron anyone? Us muscle is all looks.

  • SSC Ultimate Aero TT anyone...?

    US muscle with the current world record as the fastest production car....

  • yeah but whos been leading for like ever up untill then? McLarren F1? Buggati?

    What Aero is what? 5 mph faster and like 500 grands worth of cheap plastic

  • Cheap plastic parts? It's mostly carbon fiber as are most super cars. Also, with the final drive rato at 3.4444:1, it has enough power to push it to 272.102mph...

    Doesn't matter who held it before...who's holding it now...?

    Next...

  • It has fuck all power to get 272, thats theoretical top speed, its recorded speeds 256 or someshit.

    All american cars are cheap and old technology, nuff said.

  • well...then how do you like the fact that "cheap and old technology" just spanked your new and expensive technology...I do believe it took the crown from the beloved Bugatti...and onlu using two turbos...not 4 as the Bugatti uses.. That's american muscle...and that's how we roll

  • fuckn hail.....what else need or rather CAN be said......keep on rollin babby!!!!!!!!

  • "thats theoretical top speed" Yeah...it was just a guess actually...noone actually did the math on that....note the sarcasm

    Don't be pissed because an American car beat out your British McLaren, and your French Bugatti...

  • huh...and not to mention...the French Veyron's German 16 cylinder, 8.0L, 4 turbo engine...got spanked by an an American Aero TT with an America 8 cylinder, 6.35L, twin turbo engine...

    Noone in the world squeezes as much power out of a cubic inch or a litre of volume as Americans do... Watch Top Fuel drag racing if ya don't believe that.

    And you'll pay 1/3-1/2 the price for the Ultimate Aero TT than you will for the Veyron.

  • The Veyron is still of much beter quality and will handle better as americans have never heard of corners.

  • wow...the whole "americans have never heard of corners" thing is played out. You'll notice the Vettes and The Vipers have been winning championships. Also...give me the name of a car that comes from the UK with a UK powerplant, that can smoke any American car...I didn't think so...Seems you have to rely on the Germans

    However...the day you brilliant brits learn how to make an airplane fly, or send a shuttle to the moon, then I might be impressed with your gene pool of engineers...

  • i agree that the jokes's been played out and that vettes are pretty good handling cars but a stock viper is a terrible handling car for what you pay and should expect. My friends unkle has one and agrees himself that it's a poor handling car. A fast car. But his cadillac CTS-V handles far better.

  • I agree..but you have to look at the true difference between the Caddy and the Viper...one being the power the suspension and steering systems are trying to hold, and two being the way the systems are set up...

    I think that the Viper needs to be completely revamped though. It was top dog when it came out, but the slight improvements over the years have been surpassed by complete redos by all other manufacturers.

  • LOL. Ok then...

    6.0L chevy produces 420bhp. A 6.0l V8. A BMW M3 produces 420BHp from a 4.0l V8. Yank cars are shit and most likely always will be.

    Plus I'd prefer a veyron. Also, why do you think vettes and vipers are winning championships? Because they aren't vettes and vipers! It's just a shell. All the internals probably have almost 0 relation to the actual car.

  • now...

    Consider how much power you can possibly squeeze out of that 4.0L V8 and how much more you can get out of that 6.0L...

    No replacement for displacement Holmes...

    Next...

  • anyone who doubts that needs to see a top fueler in action. Those things aren't measured on the dyno so much as they are on the Richter scale. There's no jap or nazi car in the world that outguns the Enola Gay in horsepower.

  • I couldn't have said it better myself. There is NOTHING as impressive as the feeling you literally get sitting next to the track while a top fueler is at full throttle.

  • Well then I guess yanks are just fucking lazy then, if they arent willing to try and squeeze it. They can't develop a small capacity engine engine for shit.

    Though they're quite good at developing their gut.

  • Who the fucks wants a "small capacity" engine?

    Besides, you're Australian, not European. What have the Australians contributed to the automotive world...that's right...nothing. The only car company in Australia that's worth a shit is Holden, which is owned by the AMERICAN company known as General Motors.

    You're just a little 19 year old prick still living with your parents...I'm pretty sure you don't own an M3 or an M5, or any BMW for that matter.

    Next...

  • Whats wrong with a small capacity engine?

    Yes, I do live with my parents.

    Yes, I do have a job, and so I can afford an E36 M3.

    And you want a small capacity engine for fuel economy, well, the rest of the world does. US fuel prices are like a dollar a gallon or something stupid. We have to pay $1.40 p/l in aus, so fuel economy matters.

    Anyway, gtg...........................­..........

  • you guy's are lucky, in uk, fuel has gone up to £1.08, in u.s. thats like $2.14. u.k. ids the most expensive European country for fuel so we're basically fucked with that kunt gordon aughhhh.....Brown!

  • Yea, that's really really bad. Thats equivalent to $2.50 a litre here. I know lots of people who wouldn't be able to live if that happened (unable to take public transport, unable to pay for fuel)

  • u guys also have higher quality gas that gets better gas mileage and power, bcuz our country is bigger and we need to go farther, we need a lot of fuel for cheap.

  • Its about a £5 a gallon i think plus the beer and fags go up aswell every bloody budget

  • isnt european fuel roughly a pound a liter? and theres 3.8 liters to a gallon so itd b closer to 4 bucks.

  • up where i live about a £1 a litre so 20£ in youre doesnt get you too far

  • good for you

  • Veyron that is cheating 16 Cylinder fuck that

    be a man use a oorvette 427 block with 5 in bore

    try flying that

  • try sucking cock while eating a big mac.

    Oh hey you HAVE done it before! you're a yank!

  • hahahaha nice. my question is how much is the top fuel blocks weigh? theres a reason why jap or nazi motors are small. they r suppeosed to be light u idiots. thats why u see american cars understeering into concrete barriers at turn 1. and to the idiot pointing out viper and vette racers. saab devloped the c5r. the mighty oreca viper gts-r was set up in england. idiots. and they are fully built racecars. and both lost to the skyline gtr and supras and nsx-r when they entered jgtc gt500.

  • The top fuel blocks weighs in at less then the RB26 asshole.

    You have no idea how light they actually are.

  • really where is the proof of that. and even if it does, how much does it cost to make a top fuel block. i can make a rb block design wit f1 class materials and it would be light. idiot talk f1 vs top fuel not street car vs top fuel.

  • Are you fucking stupid?

    I've worked with dragcars since you were an itch in your fathers crotch. An RB block design, inline six, is made in aluminium, which is used in F1. Seriously, stop talking.

  • u obviously r an idiot. all rbs are iron block aluminum head. what ur top fuels use billet titanium for ur blocks? u coudlnt answer my question what material is used in top fuel blocks?

  • You never asked dickschwab. The new line of RB26DETT engines are made in aluminium, if you want one with good quality that is. The cast iron block has it's flaws.

    YOU NEVER ASKED WHAT IT WAS MADE OF. Cunt. Learn how to spell and stop butchering the english language you fucking twelve year old.

  • ahahaha. idiot. now we try to divert random shit cuz of ur ignorance. theres no such thing as a new rb block. it died with the r34. the new gtr has a vr38dett which is a v6. haha u dumb shit. what are they made of then? third time i am asking u. what are the top fuel blocks made of?

  • Oh of course, so the new shortblock Rb26DETT blocks available for sale, made for restoration purposes are all bullshit right?

    I've worked on numerous, so stop trying.

    You never asked the first time, or the second time dumbshit. Wow, I am not even wasting my time on you anymore. You are without a doubt the most ignorant piece of shit I have ever met. It's people like you that sit home alone and never go out pretending they know shit, and will end up taking their mom to prom.

  • and u still did not answer me. what r top fuel blocks made out of? it is bulshit. real nissan rb26dett is iron block aluminum head.

  • every gen rb is iron block aluminum head

  • thank you. could someone tell that idiot that?

  • This Euro "Modern" vs USA "Old" is played out. But still, comparing the Aero to the Veyron is kind of ridiculous, because the build philosophies are different. A Veyron could be driven hard all day long as long as you could pay the fuel bill and tires, the Aero must need constant engine rebuilds in the same situation:P

  • Constant engine rebuilds? It's based off of a chevy engine, that I happen to own one of, and that engine has almost 250,000 miles...the only thing I have changed are the oil and a waterpump. I didn't break it in properly, and I haven't gone easy on that engine from day one.

    Now, the engine in the Aero is obviously more tuned than mine, but it's built with better components than mine as well.

    Also, with the Veyron price difference...I'd have plenty of money for rebuilds if needed

  • You don't need to rebuild it constantly... These are forged internals. I'd say if you do a duration run, you will need a rebuild, but constant 1/4 runs, no. Even racing on the streets isn't even equivilant to duration racing... so.. yea.

  • man...you really know what's going on... When the American car companies design a "muscle car"...they don't tune suspensions or anything.... they just put a 500-600hp engine in a brick and send it to the dealer... That was a retarded question

  • HAHAHAHAHAHA SO TRUE!!!!

    I thought the tt was german?

  • nope...the SSC Aero TT is built by Shelby Super Cars...based in Washington USA

  • lol i know now, like an idiot i posted that comment w/o research. SSC = Shelby Super Cars. well mabad! who the hell gave me a thumbs down? im sure there's shit you dont know yet! damn. but ya thanx for the heads up Warmoth.

  • It's cool... I also gave you a thumbs up to make up for someone giving ya thumbs down...

  • Performance car quoted that both the Heat Treatments and Croyden cars were around the 1400hp mark, saying that you can't exactly strap a car like this to a dyno. And for the record this car has been STROKED not bored out. Then again a team at this level isn't going to print down their specs to a tee for everyone

  • reece is makeing around the 1600hp mark but runs a subframe chassie no tube shit and it aint a 2.6dett its bored to around the 3.0 mark makeing it a rb30det the car would run alot faster as rear wheel drive as he loses alot of power through the gear box being four wheel drive but that would just defeat the point now wouldent it :D

  • Its not an bored out to 3liters.They have 2 race engines fro the GTR one id 2.6 ltrs the other is bored out to a 2.8 ltr.They run a Garrett GT55 on Methanol.

    Check it out forums,performancecar,co,nz

    For a check on the rebuild for this season.

  • Assuming this car would do better in rear which I doubt,because this thing had major trouble putting down that power on those slicks..In a 7.5 run this thing actually had wheel spin at over 190 mph!!! in 4wd..so why but it in rear when it cant put that hp successfully in 4wd.

  • rears faster bro ....put sum 15 inch wide tyres(slicks)and there will be no wheel spin.....yank are geting 8000hp down the track with no wheel spin!

  • True but then youll need a tube frame chasis to accommodate those slicks and that would be defeating its propose,and would not be anything special,if not all most tube frame cars runs 7s,but how many subframe runs 7s.

  • a narrowed rear subframe is how your typical american "door slammers" are built... It's just alot of work

  • now you're talking my language...aside from the "Yank" thing...but no disrespect I'm sure...

  • very very well said

  • Aucklander Reece McGregor has set a world quarter-mile (400m) sprint record for all-wheel-drive cars. McGregor launched his r32 Nissan Skyline off the line at Queensland's Willowbank Raceway and was clocked at 7.57 seconds and 190mph (307km/h). Earlier he had recorded 7.59 seconds over the distance. McGregor's best time in New Zealand is 7.81 seconds and 177mph (287km/h). The 1992 Skyline is powered by a turbocharged 2.6-litre straight-six engine producing around 1400 horsepower (1040kw).

  • hmm... not sure how much power it has but but i think it is not over 1000hp mabe like 600-800hp .....it dose sound bad ass tho when it takes off

  • u would not get a 600 2 8oo hp skyline sounding and launching like that its 1400 almost double wot u think

  • go the kiwi

  • Reece McGregor...he only gets faster. Currently the worlds fastest 4WD, meaning Worlds fastest GT-R

    He TRULY is a legend

  • John Shepherd has a First Gen Talon that has tripped the lights in 7.70 seconds @ 191 mph,(on youtube) and managed another slightly slower run with a 195 mph trap speed. Trying to say that only a GT-R could be the fastest AWD in the 1/4 is just ignorant, if John manages to hook things up just right on a run his car clearly has the power to beat McGregor's record.

  • I should mention I mean McGregor's 7.59 second run, not the run in this video.

  • Who said only a GTR could win?? He simply stated the facts. Sounds like it may be you who is ignorant.

  • and even when it ran its 7.57 record run it wasnt running at full power, it was running at roughly 1700hp and it capable of just a nudge over 2000hp

  • Where did you pull those figures from? They seem a tad bit ridiculous to me...

  • obliviously you don't understand drag racing....think about how much power loss there is in the drive train?

  • But it sounds to me that you just pull random figures out of the air. How much power does the car actually make? I DO understand drag racing, but I have never heard of any GTR making the amount of power you quoted.

  • yea i agree. go read the ignition magazine article. Even one of the builders ( cant think of his namee) agrees that it doesnt make anywhere near even 1700hp.

  • fuck your dumb learn your shit homo

  • Reece McGregor is the man. remember watching him at Meremere when I was a younger fella

  • im guessing that was reece McGregor?..

  • sure was :D

  • wow that was as quick as red victor 1,was that on unleaded or does it need race fuel

  • race fuel and a half...that car wouldnt even start on regular gas.
