Hi all.

I want to go to wsid, but I want to break into high 12's....

At the moment Hybrid FMIC, filter, mongrel exhaust, locked diff, 4 puck clutch, fuel pump 040??, Dr Drift Ecu, r33 turbo,no interior bar two front seats. 255 rears on 17's. adj cam gears to go on (180rwkw?)

I'm curious if this will achieve a high 12, or do I have a little bit to go yet???

What are your experiences in breaking 13's???

Cheers.

My R32 when i had the RB20 in ran a few 12.9 @116mph on 225/45/17" street tyres.

It only made 188RWKW with a small hi-flow turbo, intercooler, 3" exhaust and ECU, so it CAN be done you just need another 15rwkw or so.

That MPH is MASSIVE for only 188rwkw!

Yeah, the MPH is a bit higher than my VL which had 200rwkw and ran 12.6@112MPH.

Ill try and get the timeslip up, my car was car# 600, i cant find the actual 12.9 with 116mph, but here is a 12.9 sec slip and one when i started pulling 116mph.

sky30, thats a brilliant result

the best i managed was 13.1 @ 108mph with 225/50/16 street tyres and standard suspension. That was on about my 8th run of the day.

i was making 207rwkw with a hks2530 and ~1.25bar

but sky30's time makes my efforts look dismal!

173rwkw = 13.3@106mph (2.3 60ft) on 205 tyres R33 gtst. 33 deg ambient.

Dyno numbers don't tell you everything. I recently thought of tracking the time over the x axis for rpm. This way you can track the accelleration times under load in each gear. This will directly translate to a relative 1/4 mile prediction as things like rotational mass greatly affect accelleration and can be shown using this measurement, without it you can't see the benifit. The physical weight of the car and areodynamics are then the only factors left to associate.

Next time you go to the dyno get your stop watch out and see how long it takes to make the power. Bolt in a lightweight flywheel or lighter rims, change the diff ratio and see just how big an influence these things can have.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
