the quickest i ever got was 7.26 seconds, this was the most perfect launch revved to just 3000rpm and sort of ride the clutch abit then drop, got a bit of wheelspin. Shifted redline in 1st, then early in 2nd so i could hook away in 3rd as it is in the midrange area. i was shocked as i was gettin mainly 8.3 seconds all the time which was was my mates honda acord 2.2 SOHC was gettin :S and i was gettin cut at that

just so you guys have something to compare to:

r33 series II manual with apexi rsm

0 to 100 5.70

stock standard, just good tyres and a pod filter (no cold air kit etc..) and a 4" muffler, stock exhaust

yeah for sure. just thought i'd give you guys some figures to compare to. i have stacks of fun in my turbo. much prefer it vs non turbo and alll ive got is a pod filter so you can hear the turbo wind up and the factory bov. sounds sweet as. my peak is 141rwkw as per dyno run with stock everything, normal gtst is stock 125rwkw so im a little bit more, not sure why. rb25det with 96000 on the clock

yeah its better than the turbo specs, funny that he only has 75horsepower nitrous.

the stock turbo is 6.10 or thereabouts according to most magazines, or 6.18

as a reference the brand new police cop car hsv gto 5.7 litre v8 does 0 to 100 in 5.8

well the one holden lent the cops for trials in vic anyway plates are "HSVGTO" which is used exclusively for the cops does it in 5.80. my friend got 5.70 in my car, i can only manage 5.98

yet to try again, maybe i should soon :)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
