R33 VS C4?

Im stationed in Germany and have my '88 Corvette with me. Longtubes, true duals, 4 spd manual. A guy I work with just got a '97 skyline gts-s with the RB25DET 5 spd manual and stock. Also hes learning how to drive stick and the cars having a few issues. Anyways I was wondering if I had a chance with my C4.These R33s arent much more power-around 240-270hp from what Ive read, though I know my TPI would be slow from a roll. Any ideas?

Not sure about from a roll but with AWD they launch hard and scream from a dead stop

GT-S = RWD/5spd instead of AWD/6spd.

The only Skylines to be AWD are the GT-R models.
