Team Cowie - 12.474 seconds!!

At TOTB we broke the 4wd 0-300kph time held by Veilside Japan there time was 13s and we set a new record going from 0-300 kph in 12.474sec.

I took it all the way to over 200mph here is some of the data taken from the timing gear.

0-30 1.226

0-60 2.539

0-100 4.346

0-150 8.085

0-200 14.751

Some photos just before we took the Veilside 0-300 record.

ummm didnt the veilside car do it on nittos?

You've got to be kidding me?!?!?

This is an OUTRIGHT record. How can it be any clearer than that?!?! Besides, slicks do VERY little to improve how fast you can reach a particular terminal speed.

So the fact that the Heat Treatments GTR reached 300kph in under 7.6s isn't taken as a record because it wasn't targetting 0-300kph?

Very nice good to see the old R32s still getting publicity :thanks:

so fastest 1/4 mile street and drag, fastest 0-300 oh yeah :)

For the dude above, the Veilside car was an R34, did it over here in NZ, just below Taupo, think the same year a Porsche crashed spectacularly on the same circuit :)

GTR:

Couldn't find the porsche crash though :down:

yeh the one im talking about was the grey R32, 13.72 was the time beer baron, dont think it was on slicks when it did it and had a strange miss-fire halfway through second.

and i think slicks would make a differnce as to how quick you reach a certain speed, 0-300 is a timed event, slicks = less time wheel spinning, and more time on the power, means you get to that speed in less time. unless you want to get into maths/physics with rolling resistance at higher speed etc, i really cant see how it wouldnt make a difference

i know you like your drag racing, go run on a set of $30 retreads vs some real good tyres. 0-300 is basically the same format as drag racing, just with a different goal

    • Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov
    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
