Hey guys,

i stumbled across an old article about a r32 GTR that supposodely runs 11.5 down the quater with the following modifications

Standard Garrett T28 Turbos

HKS Cam Gears

Trust Airinx Filter Kit

Custom Bleed Valve

Standard Dump Pipes

Trust MX Front Pipes (75mm into single 80mm)

Click for Full Image Straight through Cat Converter

HKS Hiper Cat Back Exhaust

Exxedy Single Plate Three Puck Clutch

producing a Best of 240rwkw

Is it just me or does this list of mods and power output seem like it wouldnt be enough to crack a mid 11?

Just asking out of interest...

Daniel

I knew this car well as it belonged to a fellow FangArtist (HiRisk).

Absolute animal of a car for the minor mods it had.

To put it plainly, Shaun drove it like he stole it in those runs. This included rev limiter launches, flat shifting and doing everything humanly possible to pull the fastest possible time.

As Leewah said ............. the car made 253rwkw on Racepace dyno ............... which one of the 1st cars at Racepace to make over 250rwkw with stock turbos. When the car was raced 1/4 mile it had no rear spoiler, spare wheel or anything in the boot. Shaun also would switch the car to rwd mode for a big burnout on old semi-comp tyres. It was great car and owner knew how to drive it hard, the car visited 9000 rpm a few times. :laugh: "Hirisk" always knew how to put on a good show :)

Car was in perfect condition when he sold it.

It just goes to show that you can absolutely thrash the hell outta a car but as long as it's properly maintained, there really shouldn't be any issues with it.

Those were the good ol days when we could cruise/fang where we liked and nobody asked any questions. Nowadays, you'd be nuts to go out and do half of what we used to do.

FangArtists FTW!!!

Hey cheers for the responses guys ... im suprised to see that a couple of you guys actually know him. He must have thrashed that car hard did it need a rebuild by the time he was finished with it?

Thats about the quickest time ive seen for stock turbo's....

Ive heard of a few NZ boys cracking mid 11s with stock turbo's, anything under 11.99sec is very good IMO.

Ive seen a R33 GTR with hi-flowed stockies make 280RWKW and run 11.70 @ 117MPH. I thought that was pretty impressive.

I also know of a R32GTR with R34 N1's that ran 11.20....

shudup :wave:

It was my 3rd run of 4 and first time at the drags. I'd never even practiced launching before :)

dial in limiter, drop clutch, hang on = fast :wave:

There is also a 32R thats dipped into the 10's with R34 N1's, although not street fuels :D

As Leeway and RPMZ have already mentioned, this was HiRisk's car.

The car did do that time with listed mods but driven very hard/well with semi comp rear tyres.

Those were the good ol days when we could cruise/fang where we liked and nobody asked any questions. Nowadays, you'd be nuts to go out and do half of what we used to do.

FangArtists FTW!!!

The good ol days....never to return...

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
