rushturbo Member 3 Member For: 13y 11m Posted 21/08/11 02:41 PM Share Posted 21/08/11 02:41 PM Mate I just stepped out of a 160rwkw Skyline. (Standard only 3.5" cat-back exhaust); And I test drove a FG XR6 Turbo Ute with Exhaust (dunno if it had anything else done to it, I'm pretty sure it didn't) and it scared me. No doubt I'd soon get used to the power because when I got my Skyline I thought it was too a rocket! But the FG spun through first and second to about 70-80+km.I can't imagine what 350+rwkw feels like... tbh unless you're going to do track days I'd say it's pretty much pointless for the road. Either way mate if you do end up getting a car with 300+rwkw all I have to say is, don't do anything stupid. Now this part is a given because the temptation will strike you but just don't put other lives at risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in these torque happy sixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STAINLESS again plz You've changed man.... Donating Members 8,142 Member For: 13y 11m 3d Gender: Male Location: 2 Fuchsia Court, Narre Warren. 3805 Posted 22/08/11 07:10 AM Share Posted 22/08/11 07:10 AM (edited) He should be askin what needs to be done to make it a stable 500rwk +1 for detune. If your asking the question, for mine, that's enough to say you will kill yourself and/or others with 450rwkw. But good onya for havin sense enough to bring it to discussion mate.

wagnman Member 567 Member For: 15y 5m 9d Posted 22/08/11 12:07 PM Share Posted 22/08/11 12:07 PM (edited) My question would be "how much can it really be de-tuned?"I mean the thing will flow so much air with the hardware that's on it that there is no real way it could be detuned too much surely? otherwise it"ll run like a bag of shoite!I could be wrong but the lowest power tune of the three that he has in the flash box is probably about as low or "de-tuned" as a set up like this will be hey? No matter what that is always going to be a very powerful car.Looks great by the way mate.I say buy it! just take it easy as everyone has said and try to be as mature as you can. If you want something that's fast on the street get something alot less powerful as a 400+ rwkw car will be slow at street speeds anyway (ie too much wheel spin below 100KPH).These cars should be on the autobahns in Germany.
