This seems WAY faster than youtube vids I've seen of sub 240rwkw skylines, but as Nismoid says, too many factors to judge the reality, nevertherless still a good means to get a good idea for people wanting to set their power goal.

You could expect the same sort of power/delivery from the 20g setups you are looking at.

Did anyone else watch the fuel guage in this. Lol. I only make 200kw and my guage drops like that.

It is the G forces shifting the fuel around making the needle drop, it using using 10L in 30 seconds trust me.

FYI its spinning through 1st and 2nd.

1. dont let that fool you to think it really instantly goes to 100kmh once you engage 2nd gear, it still ends up there before he shifts to 3rd but its not instantaneous.

2. you should consider if you have the skill to drive a car with that sort of delivery. That would easily go sideways with the wrong twitch of the steering. Imagine you fumbled a traffic light grand prix? Oooft.

if you want a car that feels fast, usually one with a shit diff and tyres that spins 1st and 2nd with 250kw will feel a lot faster than it really is, eg my 240kw one that had an opening up diff and the tyres were replaced a week later.

I have used 1/4 tank in the 24km to work a few times, it doesnt go back up. Mayb my guage is broken.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
