what ever happened to this car. it wasn't around for long. I like how quick the build took, my brother inlaw is in his 4th year of building his and still not close to finished.
the nissan skyline r34 has really amazing handling, and it is just an all around amazing drive, i test drove one a few months ago...i couldn't get over the power, a stock one had...it was just an amzing ride
this just goes to show the brytal power of a v8 and the awsome handeling of the r34 not to metion the turbos!!! the rb engines still do the same shit hahaha fucking awsome!!!
@titustheman1 are you huffing gas??? an rb can NOT do the same thing as that ls1 can. sure dont get me wrong the rb is a great engine and all but it still dont compare to chevys ls1.
im doing the ls1 twin turbo in my r33. yeah the rb's are good but if your looking for big power it puts to much stress on it and a v8 tt you dont need to push it to much lol and you dont really need to spend to much to money, but the rb25 go's crazy in a r32 with the 25 box and diff for the longer legs
I bet all the rice-burner purists HATE this car! Well, I guess you have to feel pity for them, because their daddies never told them what a torque curve should look like...
its good to pump out even more smoke but whats the point when the car wasnt getting good results befor, will be cool to see again and i hope it does abit better with the new engine
thats exactly what its about racing is about whos the better driver and how well they can show it off in drag you can fuck up and still win and drifitng you fuck up once your done deal thats the real way to see whos a better driver
The best racers drift for fun not for money. Just FYI. I guess ken block drives his sube over huge ass jumps and crap because it proves he's a better driver? No it's because he's been there and done everything else there is to do. I guess he should really drop a chevy motor in his badass sube so he can drift better and prove to everyone what an awesome driver he is.
Its a kick ass car ! BUT !!!... Did u see the S13 or what ever Nissan it is, in about 1:47 or 1:49 ... Its On his ASS !!! .. V8, V12 ... Shit !... That Does'nt Mean NOTHING in DRIFTING !!!
very nice outcome for a skyline (not my cup of tea). perfect combo, the light weight body of the skyline and great handling combined with the mountains of low down torque the tt ls1 makes. no need to rev the ring out of it to make power and torque so less mantance is needed
4wd drift car = fail! You have never looked up skyline specs have you. the front wheel drive Mechanism connects to the bottom of the rb26 he and the rear wheel drive mechanism connects to the back of the engine via a normal bell housing. The rear wheel drive section connects to the front wheel drive section via a separate drive shaft. Basically it's a two piece transmission
im a massive muscle/v8 fan and dont mind a jap here and there (except fucking ricers)BUT FOR LOVE OF GOD DO NOT DO THAT tuners are tuners and v8 is v8 dont try to combine the two .if you want ls performance put it in the appropriate car
I'm white and I love the RB26 and dream of owning a Skyline. If ur gunna do an engine swap, make sure the other engine is beter than the one that's already in. This is a bad example
well your comments r useless mates, u know wat the fact is, LS1 LS7 etc out of corvettes using in australian vehicles like Holden Ford etc so low n high compression is not the matter atall Drift Drag Donuts etc requires RPM n thats all out Motoracing, V8 engines r naturally higher in torque bo low in RPMs so they cant reach the extreme RPM level normally found in Japanese sports compact motors.
A revvy engine is normally that way because it lacks torque, look at Honda VTech motors. Revvy motors are ideal for fast driving on a flat track, but there really is no replacement for lots of torque!
boys this engine is 6.6 litres with two turbos. an rb is 2,6 littres with one or maybe two turbos. sure an rb can make 920 hp but it will do it at 9000 + rpm with no power under 6000. this things makes boost at 2000 AND max power at like 6500. beat that for low down torque
bull shit dude. rb's need revs for the turbo so it can make decent power n torque. ls1 shits on a rb in low down torque...ahhh u do know ls1 is a chevy V8 right...ahh V8 5.7ltr u obviously dont know shit ay if u think a 2.6 turbo motor has more torque..... mayb if it was supercharged it could compete wit the ls1 in torque down low... stupid stupid coment
it was always a twin turbo LS1, but they did say they were building a bigger and better motor for it, and i heard very little indication it was turbo in those video's!
i only wish it was competitive, seems like it was taken a too far for drifting, grip is always good but that seems to have way too much
No but real life is about more than looking pretty. It's about who gets to the finish line first. Don't get me wrong I'm not knocking drifting, I'm a huge fan of both drifting and skylines.
I just think it's a bit of an atrocity to remove the race ability of a car just for the showmanship of it. Skylines are about getting there first. Drifting not so much.
"I just think it's a bit of an atrocity to remove the race ability of a car just for the showmanship of it." The engine Has NOTHING to do with removing it's "race ability" An engine does two thing provide horsepower and torque. Anyone who REALLY knows anything about engines knos that any GM LS type engine produces Superior torque at all RPM's But you could spend as much money as there is in the world on an engine and you will never prove anything in the racing world.
You do realize that Nissan makes the skyline in BOTH AWD AND RWD. This particular Skyline was NEVER fitted with AWD to begin with. Also Almost ALL of the worlds top track times are set by RWD vehicles. Just Look at the Nurburgring for proof. The Cadillac CTS-V holds a faster lap time than the R33 on the Nurburgring and it's a 4 door sedan with rear wheel drive.
What "removed "this cars "race ability" is the Purpose built drift suspension. And just a point worth mentioning the car that this particular type of engine came out of is a former Lemans Winner. Something no skyline has ever done!
