as stated in topic.

how many rwk's would a r33 gtst need to make in order to be on par, or slightly better than a holden vy ss with 300 rwk?

i ask this because the 1/4 mile calcs dont quite add up.

would like some real answers

(both cars with equal suspension mods and tyres. no variables )

cheers guys :thumbsup:

300rwkw VY ? or 300kw HSV factory version?

If its the factory 300kw motor version then you need about 175rwkw (in the real world*) to keep up maybe beat it by a nose, both cars driven reasonably well.

300rwkw VY is probably around 230rwkw-ish. Depends on a few other things as well like gearing.

* by real world I mean that the car is making this power on the road as well as the dyno, bonnet 'down' dyno numbers.

i dont think a 175rwkw would be a 300kw vy ss

standard quarter times for my bosses senator was 13.7 last time i looked it up which is the 298kw version

skyline with 175 which is basically an exhaust and about 10psi i think would lose

not by much tho

this is a good thread to keep on the go.

I have a R33 gts rb25det conversion with low diff ratio, FMIC, pod 3" exaust BOV etc n i was wondering if i'd beat my miss's brother's VZ SSV V8 ute which just has basic exaust mods...? wat we think?

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
