NIZR34GTT:

I managed a 14.7 in the wet at heathcote a few months ago, I am going back in a couple of weeks to have a proper go. My mods were: 3.5inch cat back, pod filter and approx 11-12psi.

A slightly modded 34 GTt should be able to get into the 13's I reckon - a high 13 that is :( My 60ft time was like 2.7secs and had heaps of wheelspin :burnout: even in 3rd [wet track didnt help really].

hay guys, wet33 here, to prove my 12.4 @ 111mph me and the car where in the latest dragstar australia mag there is a pic of the car at the start of the burnout. fuel pump faild last weekend so now we going all out with the fuel system, and we also putting a reverse pattern c4 auto in th girl, 4000rpm stall converter, with trans break, we hoping 4 flat 12's

hmmmm... shall i go for slowest overall? :D

before i modified mine it ran a 15.048 96MPH 60ft = 2.360 on a wet track. (almost a year ago rofl)

will be taking it back to calder next week now that ive done a few things to it to see what i can get... should be a bit more respectable :D

rofl i did a search for the same trap speed and people with less were running much faster! lol

wonder if the 40degree day and wet strip made a diff.... shouldnt make that bigger diff should it... mind u their 60ft times are damn near half mine lol

i think i need to learn to change gears properly :(

Thought I would just add that my Terminal Speed, which was 101mph, indicates my 34 should be in the same ET bracket as Franks' 13.8 sec 1/4...(2.1 60ft, 99mph)

That should hopefully make it look a bit better :(

Anyways...going to heathcote on Sunday [oct 5th] and hopefully will be recording a time in the 34 GTT category :D

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
