True. :) When the car is running properly i might take it down to Teratonga to see what sort of 1/4 mile time it'll do (i'm thinking 15 something).

Then take it up to Christchurch to run it on the dyno. I suspect it has about 217 hp which is basically what it had when it left the factory.

8O

Um.. That is way too low sorry. :o You are aware that it is turbocharged?
Exact same engine as the GTS-t - 217 hp stock.

I've beaten my brother in his turbo RX-7 at the Caversham lights and it's said his car has about 180 hp or 205 hp. :twisted:

Dad was catching up to him after they both booted it up Saddle Hill motorway one day - until the Skyline blew a head gasket or something. :?

Hmm. Oh well. :?
Must be 217 hp at the flywheel then?

I'm just as guilty of going off-topic too. :oops:

I absolutely loved Chch when I was down there for the first time in Novemeber '04 but I'm not a big fan of cold places and as far as Auckland goes there's always something to do and probably better job prospects etc so that's why I voted Auckland but I'm not a big fan of the house prices here that's for sure!

But for the record - Auckland Rules! Well, actually, I don't live in Auckland. The Auckland border officially runs along my fence line. I live in Franklin - but Aucklands close enough :D
