u could look at a mid 13 to low 13 u mite be pushing any 12 but it all the driver and a good take off u could hav 2 drivers same car 1 get a 15 1 get a 13 so noone could giv u a good answer but the car should be capable of a mid 13

[RB SANDY]

i was just reading the (13.4 second 1/4 for your 'stockish' R33. (A how to guide).

my car is lighter runs more boost and has a fmic.

that is A very good time 4 a stockish r33

[brassil]

it is a how to guide but it is the driver. u could get a better time but have more power in a lighter car your next prob is traction. i got a 32 gtst when i ran mine had about 190 rwkw and ran a 13.5 but bad traction launched at to high revs. does the how 2 guide tell u what to launch at because what if 2 drivers do differant launch 1 at 4g and 1 at 7g they both goin to get 13.4. it just doesnt make sense but best way is run it u mite surprise yourself and get a 12 i hope u do. just run it a thew times each launch at diff revs to test it out

[PWND]

doubt you will get in the 12's.

probably a mid 13.

[RB SANDY]

i think i should invest in some slicks

[brassil]

could be good just watch gearbox axles and diff i dont know wat your runnin so be carefull if there standard

[chris_r31]

lol 40 profile on 17inch rims is only gonna get your mates going "pwoaahh sandy you got no traction down the quater" lol, get some nice street/racing slicks, and then what ever you run will only improve on the launching department, as your traction department will be covered...

[PWND]

when you do end up taking it out, post your time on here. i keep meaning to take mine out, but little things just keep going wrong.

got a boost leak at the moment.

before that it was the rear camber

and before that it was the clutch

and so on and so on.

never anything major, but enough to keep me away from the track.

I rekon the Typhoon was on crack... The typhoon runs crazy times for a stock car.. 12s with ease.. 11s with a few bolt ons.. But I suppose for a 40g? dont quote me car id hope to get 11s lol

[R34GTFOUR]

my younger bro ran a 13.3 with simular mods to you in a r33 with a 2.0s 60 foot time.

If you can drive it hard and launch it well (his tyres were shit so theres no reason why you can better his 60 foot time), theres a good chance for a very low 13 pass. Put slicks on and launch it hard and a high 12 should be on the cards.

also bump the boost upto a bar for the night, it will help your cause...

[DECIM8]

1 bar boost, only if you have a aftermarket ecu otherwise hello boost cut/fuel cut etc etc etc

[R32_GODZILLA]

I'd say mid 13's should be on the cards at least - From what i remember a few years back when i got a seat in that thing it was mighty quick and had me smiling for a while BTW, I'm your mate Steve's cousin if you remember.

I'm hoping to tap into the 13's with my car:

stock RB20

+ 3" split dump&front / high-flow cat / 3.5" cat-back

+ FMIC

+ bosch 040 pump

+ APexi power intake

+ remap (boost restrictor/speedcut removed + ignition timing advanced with new fuel map)

160kw atw before remap, was quoted a 10-15kw gain after remap & between 10-12 pound ATM - car running extremely well.

Cheers,

Steve.

next to do to the car is a bosh 040 and a safc.

then it should do a good time with a bit of grip

[jas/slo32]

years ago when my 32 had an rb25 with 190rwkw std rb25det unknown ks 3in turbo back, pwr intercooler,microtech ecu 11-14psi no difference. run between 13.2 to 13.4 all day on 225 street tyres 108mph i think.would just break into a 12 with m/t street slicks id say

[jas/slo32]

put in a walbro fuel pump over an 040 cheaper easier to fit and quieter

[PWND]

got walbro myself. nice and quiet, and also reaches to the bottom of the tank, so can use the full tank of fuel, as oposed to 3/4 of it.

as soon as i find this damn boost leak, will take my car down to the quarter. expecting mid to high 13's....

at the moment replacing the front bushes, so won't be fixing the leak for at least a month or so. budget just does not allow it.

[kwickr33]

you are going to need a minium 230rwkws to make 13 secs, I did 12.7 with 245rwkws, and 11.15 sec running 50 shot Nos on 275 rwkws. You will need slick tyres perfered with wide rims, will help you to get better time.

[R31Nismoid]

You wont need 230 at all.

I ran 12.9's @ 109mph all day long (lots of practice and i was very consistent back in the day)

And that was with 220rwkw, RB25 in a car over 1400kg (HR31 GTSR)

This was using 225 Simex tyres, nothing special, nothing thick.

R32 is lighter by a reasonable margin, it should be able to do it with 200rwkw.
