portaz Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 And I rekon he could have squeezed a little more out of her but after a total of nearly 200 runs and a great result we had to stop somewhere and a safety margin is a good thing Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251820-got-over-400kw-atw/page/139/#findComment-7167017 Share on other sites More sharing options...
portaz Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Ok cool so I'm thinking cool air from inner guard and opening bottom up to equal surface area of filter should be ok ?

SimonR32 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I'm really concerned about traction even with semis although a bit hard she looses traction in 3rd gear on high boost, is this common with 400 plus Gtr ? No that is not normal... What tyres, what width and what suspension do you have? Without much information my guess would be you have a dead transfer case if you are losing traction in 3rd Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251820-got-over-400kw-atw/page/139/#findComment-7167127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
portaz Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 It was fine before tune they are 17" 255 I think semis hks coil overs I have tsc as well might disconnect it and give it another try Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251820-got-over-400kw-atw/page/139/#findComment-7167151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVS JEZ Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Depends how fast u were Changing gears Sime. Then gear ratio's come into play. Have u weighed ur car?

sime1 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Yeah was not changing gears that fast on that run. As for weight from what I remember it was 15 or 1600 kg with half a roll cage and just over half tank of fuel . As for ratios not even sure Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/251820-got-over-400kw-atw/page/139/#findComment-7167255 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bogan Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 sime1, It use to do 132 mph at 380 killerwasps on 98. best I got was 11.080, The box in it now has standard ratios and the diff is 411. When are you shifting, I would have a look at your torque curve and base your shifts around that, I found my best mph came from shifting at 7200 if I recall correctly, I cannot exactly recall but the iShift was set so that when I changed gears it would have the rev drop right if the fat zone of the torque curve.. Also what are your 60' times like, I think my best was 1.7. I am eagerly awaiting some good results, they shouldn't be far away, you just need to sort out the basics and it should give you the results you are looking for. Plus with a good box the reliability issue of the std box at that power and grip level should be sorted.
