I am thinking to update from T04Z to T51SPL..

With fully stripped chassis and with slicks how low time will I do with my car?

Can I will do 9.0sec? Or it is too low for this power? What power I need for 9.0?

I did 11.2sec with very bad 60foot 1.75 and with terminal 134mph with t04z 30psi and with full street interior.

Thanks for your reply!

Ok sure I will learn to drive it better but the t04z power can put me at 9's as you said... But can do very low 9?

I don't think so :P

So I am thinking to put larger injectors, t51 spl and new exhaust that will exit at front fender side.

Do you think that if I will do this setup I can do very low 9sec?

Something else do you think that I need?

I will put also full rollcage, front runners and I will strip everything of the car.

Weight of your car would be nice... As far as i can gather a stock s13 with engine/gearbox conversion of a stock rb26 would weigh about 1250kg compared to just 1170kg of a stock sr20det s13. Then i suppose you can add on some more weight for a larger turbo setup, more weight for fuel (not counted in dry curb weight) and then with any sense take some weight off because you would have removed HICAS on a drag car... right?

lets say your car weighs 1250kg anyway for arguments sake....

On a weight vs Horsepower @ wheels calculation you would be in the 8.2s range... with 1000hp @ wheels

Then take in to account the traction on your previous efforts and your terrible vehicle control and try and finish without hitting someone else would be a good goal. If i were you id leave your turbo setup as is and get the best out of that.

With that weight and lots of traction and good control you could get a 9 with around 600hp @ wheels according to the calculator which is not perfect but...

Also the car will full stripped as now will be drag car..

With 600whp that sure I have now I am not sure if I can do so low as you say..... :P

I did 11.2 with 1.75 60foot!

Ok sure I cannot do better launch than 1.5 with et streets!!!!! In an other race I did 1.5 in a decent dragstrip!

So how much better than 11.2 with 1.5 launch?? I was thinking that I can do 10.5 at best!

My terminal I think that it is good... 134mph!

I will prepare a new s13 chassis for drag car and I will stay with my setup for some races... but I don't think that I can go neighter for high 9!!

And I want very low 9 :)

T51 SPL can make 1000hp flywheel!

With 850whp what time gives your calculation with 1250kg?

I dont think the part that you have installed between the steering wheel and the seat can run a 9. hell, it cant safely run an 11.

forget about the bigger turbo, and focus on upgrading that.

i think your should turn the boost down to say 20psi, sort out the chassis, sort out ur driving! sort out the tune. get the thing running consistantly and safely.

once this has been done then start to increase the boost.

then and only then, once you have lots of experience with your current set up should you even consider moving to a larger turbo.

1250kg with 850hp @ wheels is 8.6s

Keep in mind these are examples and theoretical outcomes given perfect runs and perfect grip... Not to mention you should be adding the weight of yourself in to the equation.

Here is the online calculator http://www.race-cars.net/calculators/et_calculator.html

You can crunch the numbers yourself and take in to account traction loss etc but it requires effort and that calculator does not. have fun.

PS: when you get your car tuned next get them to weigh it with you inside and everything else you will race with, then you know.

The bloke has an RB26 powered s13, he took it to the strip (which was not perfectly prepared, granted) and he started to get fairly untidy around mid-track.

Rather than back off for his own safety and that of the S2000 driver in the left-hand lane, he ploughed on and end up swerving badly into the other lane (possibly clipped the s2000) and caused the S2000 driver to hit the wall = epic fail.

A perfect example of plenty of cash, plenty of power but no friggin brains.

I ask how to make 9sec! I have mam and dad to protect me to don't kill anyone or to kill myself!

Jesus it was just accident!

Put the car away until you grow up mate- Mum and Dad shouldn't have anything to do with this.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
