There are too many things to see exactly what you did thar! Possibilities:

-an hypothetical 9.11 crown/pinion ratio resulting in some ridiculously short gear ranges

-a 911S Carrera with a nice rear-mounted engine and a decimal point typo to boot

-a 9.11 second pass will pin you like glue to the seat

-a 9.11 second enema should give you a push back in the seat feeling

-a 9.11 long rod in the same place will have no problems doing this...struggling to find my unit of measurement though

:thumbsup:

That's a few good pointers.

Torque + small weight + short gear ratios = throw back in your seat feeling.

Big displacement V8 plus some altered diff ratios for the win :P

On that note one of the quickest feeling factory Jap cars IMO is a TT Soarer. When those two babies kick in you know about it - very non-linear power delivery.

LOL!

Just from my own experience as my R32 GTR came with a HKS twin plate and I was still getting use the friction point and I revved to about 4000 RPM (So I would not stall it) and as so as it engaged I was pushed back into my seat LOL!

Yes jase-r34 I am sure there are other cars as well, I am just speaking from experience :P

It's because you didn't expect it! :)

I reckon 9.11s in the rear end would give you a great torque multiplier and the push back in the seat feeling?

auto awd 250rwkw Stagea pushes you back in the seat when applying power

its a really awesome feeling - only problem being the "timing" due to the auto control, cant find the right zone to tromp it all the time

but when it hooks up wow the power, the acceleration, the rev/speed needles, good g-forces into the seat (so much so I replaced stock driving seat for gripy D1 Saas seat)

but besides buying a 20k R32 GTR (or 10k 1997 Stagea) and throwing 30k onto it, the next best thing is a bike.

just picked up this ZX-9R for 5g on ebay 2 weeks ago.

sweet

no knees hurts, but sweet.

jamned on braided lines, carbon bits, black bubble screen, jetkit, Art pipe, rearsets

bikezx9r.jpg

my cbr900rr with rebuilt suspension/engine with flatslides was a monster, insane acceleration from 0 all way to 300 + (6th gear 10,000 rpm)

saving for a 3-4mm oversize piston kit for the zx-9r, taking it out to 974 or 998 will unleash the beast within.

to me, having 300rwkw would be great day in day out, to feel really insane tho you cant beat a tricked-up 1litre sports bike for sheer flat-out 'ball-gripping" gforce & cornering glory

I reckon its the 1st - 2nd change in a GTR that really puts you back in the seat... ripping 2nd gear at 8500rpm... no wheelspin just bang, grip

powerful RWD cars usually have a little wheel spin on the 1st - 2nd change that softens the blow a bit, they tend to 'walk' around a bit trying to find traction... the GTR hits harder, its more violent

bikes are in another league though... in a straight line there is no quicker way to travel...................... to the hospital lol

9.11s..?
Did you not see what I did there? :thumbsup:

GTR + 4000RPM (or more) launch = Obliterate anything off the line.

^^ not quite...but still ok.

My mates capri feels pretty good i must say...makes my 9.5 feel like a nugget.

1.1 in the 60ft...has now gone 7.34 @ 186....soon to go 6's.

LOL!

Modified drag cars will obliterate anything.

  • 2 weeks later...

for aggressive acceleration, i'd say 2009 BMW M3...probally out of your price range though :/ ... but its got crazy torque and 'pushback' .... i had a massive grin on my face the whole time while riding in it. :down:

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
