Space Ace Member 446 Member For: 20y 2m 30d Location: Melbourne, Victoria Posted 08/06/05 03:43 AM Share Posted 08/06/05 03:43 AM I had a very interesting run yesterday with a Skyline GTR.I've mashed the pedal and the Skyline is struggling for traction and sliding all over the place.Obviously wasn't a GTR then...<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yes, it was. It had GTR on it. And as I said previously, just because its a GTR, doesn't mean the bloke driving knows what he is doing or that the setup isn't right....

Cained him so hard he had to turn off down a side street. So awesome.Skylines... next! - John Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18046-xr6-turbo-vs-skylines/page/6/#findComment-260954 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I said previously, just because its a GTR, doesn't mean the bloke driving knows what he is doing or that the setup isn't right....being an all wheel drive... it should get traction pretty easily and smash you of the line... sounds like you were up against a gts-t with a gtr kit/badge Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18046-xr6-turbo-vs-skylines/page/6/#findComment-260956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBB Member 55 Member For: 20y 6m 27d Posted 08/06/05 03:55 AM Share Posted 08/06/05 03:55 AM just because it has GTR on it does not mean it is not a riced up non turbo GTS or GTS-T with a GTR badge. GTR is actually a 4WD vehicle, so the only way they don't get traction is where they have 400RWKW and poor driving.

If it was a GTS with GTR badging, then the guy in it is a bigger goose than before....

Next time take a look at the rear sides of the car. It should be fatter than the GTST.

wados Member 617 Member For: 20y 6m 1d Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 08/06/05 04:22 AM Share Posted 08/06/05 04:22 AM hey im sorry but if someone said to me what would you prefer (if money wasnt an option)an xr6t or an r34 gtr than I would take the gtr anyday, not modified this things are running around 13.1 1/4 and will runs rings round a xr6t anyday on a race track.But in saying that I love my falcon and if I had alot of money I would have both, but hey you guys can argue all you like but if it isnt a skyline it will be another sort of car that will beat you, there is always something faster and better on the roads Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18046-xr6-turbo-vs-skylines/page/6/#findComment-260964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
