Damn!!! Just got back from calder, 12.00 @114mph......

I want that 11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, stock turbos running 1.1 bar, stock ecu.....

Damn good effort.

Im running stock turbs @ 1 bar

Retuned Nissan ECU

HKS cat back and pods

best of 12.54 @110mph..... 248rwKw

by exactlly how much would front pipes and dumps help terminal speed?

Damn good effort.

Pawley, got standard dump pipes, but HKS front pipe, I would assume front pipes would make a noticeable difference, may push your terminal speed to about 114mph???

Don't quote me on that though.....

JagR33 - nice i guess we are in the same boat - both want a quater starting with the number 11 - both running pretty much the same power :P

i need to get down to calder soon - maybe we can meet up and exchange tips/ideas on how to get that 11 :P

Yeah sure, I know Dean very well and know the car you bought from him, that's how I know they're very identical....

Gotta love the 'Ben Special Tune'.......

When your ready to race at calder just PM me, we'll meet somewhere.....

Okay lads, I'm just concluding a new DVD being released through the same outlets as High Octane, and HPI in May called 'Car Crazy', and in it is a feature story about drag racing, including a story about tuning a near stock GTR to run in the 11s. In the first part of the story the car consistantly runs in the low 12s with 220 - 230kW at all four wheels as measured on C&Vs dyno. The 60ft times were between 1.7 and 1.8 seconds. At this stage the mods included:

HKS dump pipes and full exhaust

HKS cam gears

Japanese ECU (non-tunable)

HKS pod filters

1-bar of boost

Nismo twin plate clutch

From here the car is being tweaked to achieve a high 11 second pass while retaining the stock turbos, fuel system and engine. I'll be using unleaded ANDRA approved 105 octane fuel, higher boost pressure, a different (albeit cheap) ECU upgrade, suspension tuning, and a mild wieght reduction (spare wheel/jack, stereo system).

Should be running the 11 second configuration during a private filming session at WSID next week.

My friend ran 11.4 at 121mph, on 1.2 bar, advanced timing ,extra injector triggered by a hobb's switch and a cheap water injection setup. I then got him some R34 turbo's and it went 11.3 at 124mph!, power?, never seen a dyno! It's an early R32GTR., Back in the early day's when Munro and Willalll were only running low 11's with big dollar setup's.

Well doen Jack, so damn close to that 11sec pass.

You gotta nail those 60 footers in the 1.7s mate. :)

Thanx Emre, you probably know how it feels, been there before haven't ya?

Yeah my 60 ft times have been around the 1.85s, but that's with 265/35/18 hankooks, might have to get the original 17s with sticky rubber and I'll be in the 11s for sure....

What am I doing wrong...

I have 240 kw at all 4 and get a reaction time of 0.46 and a 60 ft of 1.7 (average) and a terminal speed of 108mph (average) my best to date is 12.365 but average about 12.50...by the way I tried my hand at a bracket meet last night and won $100 and a trophy...

so why are you all faster...i also have steel wheels and 1.3 bar

ricknismo, your 60ft times are superb, but looks like your midrange is suffering....

108mph is definetly not good for a flat 12, considering I'm getting 114mph....

With steel wheels usually u get more lag, so maybe that's your problem???

Don't quote me on that though.....

You got a decent clutch???

Yes Jack, i've been there before, but was able to get the 11 on my 3rd and 5th run. :kick:

It doesn't work out with the averages mate. What is your best 2-3 mph so far...?

If you are not pulling 114mph, you only have a dyno printout of 240kw.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
