Fastest GTR and highest WHP GTR in Canada ?

I don't see why they'd lie but I guess it's the internet and you too could be a liar.

Maybe he has some kind of magical tune (pectel I think). What do you have? Haltech? Vipec? Motec?

How bout race gas vs race gas all in.

You'd be running in the 9s like them? Oh wait, I think they recently punched out an....

Go for a ride in Jon's GTR and you won't be so doubtful..

Go for a ride in Jon's GTR and you won't be so doubtful..

I don't doubt his sleeper (can't find any engine bay shots, parts list or anything), stock looking gtr with nismo rear spats (from what I can tell by the small user icon) is fast. More so, wayyy faster than my lump of kickass parts that sit on the floor, I merely meant that if someone else can lie (or we can bluntly accuse a reknown shop that they probably lied) when you don't know have proof, why can't you lie too haha.

I trust and think they're honest because if they were as questionable as a forum let's say, they'd surely lose business or lose credibility. I read their magazines every month since 2007 or something so I believe most of the propaganda... false or not lol.

I am always impressed by Jon's car because it's stupid fast without any fancy ecu's, turbo(s), gearbox or anything so it remains real cheap. This is a great feat when most people around him have nothing but issues with or without a built engine, he has awesomeness (other than luckygtr and his beastly 1000hp ego-booster on 4 wheels) that I can't surpass, even if I dumped $70k into a gtr because, well, I'm clueless....

I am really praising you, not sarcastic but understand that there must be a reason why your math is not adding up...

I see the Dsport R33 like the full race EFR conspiracy. Everything looks and sounds amazing but is it? I can only trust what they say...


If there's 1 thing that is kosher on the internet car world, it's motoiq. Here's a little write up on the car. It might not have 1000hp (800 or whatever you guess) but it did some not too bad 9.7 1/4mile back in 2009.

The quest for RH8 status has been quite but I think they are going to hit it soon. Last I heard they were at 1100hp. Maybe they are quick off the get go but don't see a good top speed?I dunno, I'm not into drags, I'm into couch roadcourses (watching youtube and top gear with my $350 steering wheel).

Hey Jon who tuned your car?

Hey Jon who tuned your car?

Infini Racing in Japan did the tune, I just tweeked it a bit for better daily driving. The full boost/power part of the tune is all Infini. The tolerance to Chevron 94 at only 1 bar is incredible on the 30+ deg of timing that is going on. That is why I think there is lower compression pistons in there. Just before I bought the car I did a little research on Infini and found out that they competed in the 0-300km/h comps that were really popular in the late 90's and early 2000's. They managed a stout 17.4 sec behind the record 14.6 that stood until the Henessy Venom just beat it this summer. I think they have their shite together.

There are a few things that you can use to gauge how much power someone is making without a dyno. Trap speed in the quarter is really good indicator. Fuel usage is another good one. There are a few cars running in the low 9's at 150mph with only 1000cc injectors. They must be running higher fuel pressure because I don't think 1000s can supply enough fuel to go 150 in a 3000lb car. As far as I know 1000s can supply fuel for 1000 gross HP if pushed to the limit. That translates to about 800whp and that's not enough in a car with a CD of about 35ish to go 150 out the back door.

But most of this is just fluff in the end, I wanna see that thing make a clean pass on Q16. And I need to cut the BS and make a pass on Q16 at 1.5bar (100% duty cycle) to see exactly what she's got.....next year, I promise.

north america? Would probably either be something like the DSport R33 or Ark Design R32 GTR, well, that are officially out in public.

my car(when the previous owner had it) cut a better time than the dsport car ever has. afaik the 9.37 @159 is still the fastest us registered skyline. that was on 265/35/18 bridgstone s02's and a very poor track surface.

Vids?

[bimmertech]

I'm not sure if the old owner has any of his pass. I know the time slip was uploaded a while back. i'll look through all my documents to see if I can find it, but he may still have it.

Nice.....$200,000 car though.....today you could do that for about $75,000 all in. Price of the origional car reduced to a reasonable $15,000 and $60,000 would be more than enough to put down 1200whp. RIPS has alot to do with that....$15,000 gives you a motor that will pound out 1400hp all day long.

[bimmertech]

it was a colossal money pit for sure. I think he put 3k miles on it in 8 years of ownership. he regrets that car badly, especially considering that his buddy blew it up and I prison raped him when I bought it lol.

it's all relative though. back then in the US you couldn't do what he did for $75K. If I cared about going straight I would bet you could do it all in for a bit less than 75K. auto trans, single, and a big shot haha.

[Dragon Humper]

Mmmm....prison rape.

Nicely done though, I would daily that bad boy all year long in a warm climate. Is that on E85?



Jon.

[Bruizer]

Creepy, I was just reason that turbo mag just last week for whatever reason. That's one sick drag queen

[bimmertech]

no e85. just a pump gas(91) tune that made 650awhp on 1 bar and the race gas tune on something around 38psi.

there isn't much left in the car of the old setup--the dogbox(will be gone next spring), clutch, front lsd, and some misc hoses is about it. the rest is just collecting dust in my storage unit.

[gtrkrauss]

whats wrong with the dog bimmer.? nice car btw

[bimmertech]

thanks, the dogbox is just not my thing. I already have 2 hardcore cars, and want the gtr to be a date night/road trip car. the front lsd will be removed and i'll be restacking the rear lsd at that time.

[Bruizer]

Maybe I'm wrong because I have a different sense of finances and worth than you but

You buy a 1000whp (if im correct) car and you want to turn into a date night road trip car. You don't call that car a hardcore car wtf you drive an huaeyra???? IMO that's sounding a bit odd trying to backpedal a high end car to a weekend thrasher.

You could have bought the same car (but near stock) to do that date nights for less than $20k probably.
