Just found this picture....so much for building airboxes or ram air set ups...if you want air this is the way to get it!!!

I feel sorry for the flies.

 

[Bean]

Flies ?

You'd probably need to watch out for cats and small dogs getting sucked in

The compressor blades won't last too long, that's virtually guarranteed.

The NACA duct is the best way to tap into the high-speed airstream, but running a turbo with no filter is plain daft (I think!)

Maybe, but it still looks the dog's!

 

[JohnA]

dwarf batmobile?

LOL!! :smokin:

JohnA the man who had indifferent views to the skylines when i got one, fancy seeing u here!

 

[JohnA]

JohnA had test-driven an R32 way before you bought yours, Richie.
But that was the wrong forum, meant to be for Calibras.
This one's very nice, I have to say

 

[Rich J]

U never said before, u should try an r33. Bias on my behalf maybe, lol

 

[JohnA]

I've tried several Supras, as well. Nice to have some extra cubes.

R33? I thought you had another version!

Maybe we could get together sometime, perhaps with the Hairy One too!

 

[Rich J]

yeah its an R33, just not GTR, just a single turbo job. But hey all the big boys use single turbos! lol

 

[JohnA]

So is it the same 2.6 block then?

single turbo - one less thing to go wrong, you can look at it this way!

 

[Rich J]

No John it uses the RB25 block not the RB26. U've not seen are new skyline since the black one last year have you?

Yeah one less thing to go wrong but always an expensive thing to wrong.

So where ut at now with the calibra?

 

[JohnA]

So where ut at now with the calibra?

I do like the low-profile and practicality of the Calibra. That's what attracted me in the first place.
But I would prefer a bigger engine and more turbos. Unfortunately the offerings out there are not sufficiently better to lure me away from the CallyT. I'd like something that would blow my socks off, or at least get my pulse going.
Hey, feeling faster than the POS I've already got would be a good start!

 

[Rich J]

Plenty of cars that will blow your socks off mate, just budget I guess isn't it.

Quite a few R33 skylines and supras around 500bhp going for around 18k to 22k with supercar performance for far less money.

Can just imagine what that would run like in the rain.
