    ive had it about 8 months and i took it down to kwinana and got a flat 15 with a pretty **** reaction time. i should imagine the skyline would be quicker than that

    yeah the old 32,s can get up and go when they need to but if you have a good cam and manual you will give him a good run

    Do you guys pay attention :P

    I don't know if this is a r32? I don't know much about skylines but it runs a front mount and 14-15psi so should be similar to the car you want to race. This Skyline in the video is good for about a 14.2 second 1/4 mile

    YouTube - VP V8 Commodore vs Skyline (VP 9.2 1/8th mile)

    That said the average VS 5 litre would get left several/lots of car lengths behind by that car or my VP so I don't think you would win

    if that was an r33 turbs its also an RB25det, not the humble RB20det... lil bit of a power and torque increase there to deal with the extra weight of the R33 body - my old cefiro was RB20det and i used to beat alot of guys in v8 commys - made me laugh aye they all thorght they would own my $2000 rice burner

    lol, who cares what each car has. At the end of the day the 1/4 time slip will tell all. Just run them and post up the results. Problem solved.

    They're like a 3.7 or 3.9 ratio or something. Something not considered earlier when people said the 5L would take the skyline off the line (considering the 5L is quite slow off the line).

    I would rather drive the VS, even if it gets hammered by 10 car lengths.

    Skylines are fast, but that's not everything when it comes to cars.
