I'd like to see 8 seconds flat on a G tech timer with a standard N/A...won't happen...and if it does, you'll have to be bang on the mark with launch and gear change. It'll be closer to 9 on average. Still decent for a daily driver but don't expect to be beating Commodores and Falcons unless they are shit drivers.

Damn. That's as slow (or fast?) as my 2010 Mazda 3...and no it wasn't an MPS!

It's slower than my fat magna too, but speed really isn't everything. I think na drivers have a sh!t time of it, I was looking at gts's them for my p-plated brother and they're just too expensive. r33 s1 gtst's are now as low as 6k, and not for a shocking example either! Just gotta remember that it's an aweful lot more fun than the magna, and in any sort of traffic they're as fast as a veyron

Rofl.

Sure its not a 20E?

Maybe he's just honest, shifted lazily, didn't go to heaps of effort to time it, didn't get a formula 1 star start, doesn't have ideal suspension or tyres etc... did i mention honest? A lot more na skylines can do 12.4 than can do 8 flats.

My point being, sisters SR20DE auto, just punching drive got 10secs...

well i was lazy and scared of an animal runing in the road as i was trying it so it was not going to be the best. but i do need more practice of corse but hey it is what it is verry bad cant say it was good at all. not even for a first try ever for a 0/100 in any car so im going to try it again but not going to let it ruin my day cuz it was a slow time.

If you want to do it seriously do it at the drag strip. Otherwise you're just begging to get booked unfortunately.

Just because he did a 12.4 doesn't mean the engine isn't up to scratch, it just means he wasn't trying to put his license on the line or hurt anyone.

Hope you're not letting these guys get on your nerves. To to an awesome 0-100 you have to nacker the car, like really punish it. You also should do it on a hot day, on very expensive street legal tyres. You should be on stock suspension, or modified suspension for the strip, you have to have you're foot hard on the brake and build up the revs heaps, giving hell to the torque converter. Then when you go you have to make sure you're getting good productive wheelspin from those super expensive tyres (tyre have the most grip at ~10-15% slippage) etc etc.

In a manual skyline for example, you'd only get 5-10 hardcore goes on a stock clutch before it was ruined.

no no i know people are just havin fun im just saying its not going to ruin my day :thumbsup: . i knew i should have added a smile but left it out so my bad .

well i did it on an empty road where i could see if there was anyone around i dont plan to do it for the heack of it. besides all i need is a wallabe bouncing into my front bumper to make my day :yucky:

I don't get it.

I sat at lights on a highway, where the speed limit is 100.

Light changed, foot off brake, onto accelerator, push accelerator to floor, 2 hands on steering wheel?

Granny snail driver in their white box Corolla see you doing this & not taking 1-2 minutes to accelerate up to 100km/h (like the rest of the snails on the road), think to themselves "bloody f**ken hoons" & call the hoon hotline on you for hooning... :whistling:

Also I keep on hearing that Police can book you for "excessive acceleration", however I've yet to find that particular clause in the traffic hand book.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
