MPH NEVER lies!

There is more factors to it though:

http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/trap-speed-vs-et-explained-here.567417/

Naturally, patterns emerge again after looking at lots of runs and of course these correlate best to time, not mph.

(while 11.5 isn't the best time you need to remember the weight of the car)

Like when i did 12 runs at heathcote my 13.0, 13.1s etc were all over 111mph my quicker 60fts and lower ets were 105mphs (12.6 etc)

The link is a decent read

Yes i know all that :P

MPH is lower if the 60ft is better. Thats the basic summary of the long winded link :)

Avg 60ft is 1.9-2.3 for a typical street car. Such a variance will see 1-3mph diff having raced over 100 passes in my GTS-R years ago. Got it pretty consistent in the end and the 1.9 60fts were always 2mph down over my 2.2 60ft runs.

Still even if you add 3-4mph to 121 - 125mph for 400rwkw is ... A no. Car would have to be 2.5 tonne or there abouts.

Alex, levelled or not they still blind me just as much as any other xenons I see in Preludes etc. Truth is all headlights hit you in the eyes but xenons are always worse...so levelling aside I'd like to see an all or none approach to it.

Unrelated, how the f**k does Tim Cahill eat 9 weetbix...I bet it's not within the space of 5-10 minutes.

I got a few 1.9s with 105 106 ish and 2.0s and 2.1 are up past 111mph.. but i see where you're coming from.

I want to get into the 12s at heathcote :) you better come! or you going to other sprint thing?

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
