Ran my 32 gtr at heathcote today.

1st run i ran a 13.4 @ 113mph 2.38 60ft :(

2nd run was a 12.3 @ 109mph 1.86 60ft

3rd run i ran a 12.1 @ 108mph 1.74 60ft

Was kind of dissapointed i didn't break 11's today but it's my 2nd week owning the car and my first launch of the day was my 3rd time ever launching this thing... was also my first time at a drag strip.

On the first run i was shifting at 7k and the other 2 i was shifting at about 8, so obviously 7k is the sweet spot. How far into the 11's do you think i could go shifting at the right spot with a 1.7 60ft? Obviously i would be getting over 113mph.

Car is making 330rwkw

Tyres, suspension and ride height................ all have major effect at the drags.

Well i mean running it exactly the same as i did today but with a higher mph. 108 is pretty gay considering i got 113 with a poo 60ft. Cbf adjusting my suspension atm

Thats how it works... generally MPH is lower if the 60ft/ET is faster.

Sadly though, you dont have 330rwkw with only 108mph/1.760ft... much less infact.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.
