yea 201.3rwkw with a Manual trans.

the Drag racing thing is not as easy as it looks haha

i was launching at 3500rpm and dumping the clutch and then changing to 2nd as quick as possible to stop wheel spin.

Disregarding the time, the trap speed of 97mph (converted) means you don't have anything close to 200rwkw. With that kind of power you should be expecting at least 105mph, and probably closer to 110mph.

Then again your run wasn't done on a Dyno Dynamics but still, that dyno that was used seems pretty optimistic.

That 60 footer is pretty horrible.

Backing of a little instead of changing to second might be better. This is what i do, the RB just feels so much happier in the high revs.

With a pod, boost controller and cat back exhaust,

I managed a 13.6 with a 60 footer of 2.0....

14.78 is half a second slower then the official time for an r33 gts-t isnt it?!?!

Go back again with better tyres.

What tyre pressure do most of you use.

What Revs is a good level to launch at.

Whens the best time to change gears

What 60ft time would i need to get a low 14 or a high 13

and when you say backing off a bit wouldnt that hert my time even more.

from the look of your sig the rear of your car is too low... very hard with the IRS to get traction when it's that low, no room for squat or weight transfer

also are you running any kind of fuel controller? if you are running those mods off the stock ecu it will be way too rich, esp. with an aftermarket pump in there

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
