Mid 9. No farken way. It too heavy... I reckon a mid 10 with my rookie piloting skills....

Time for diet.....carbon doors, boot, lexan windows, rip interior out and go on Jenny Craig diet Paul :D

Stock R33 GTR weight is around 1550KG. Add driver, fuel etc and that will be at around 1700kg. This would equate to mid 10's @130+ MPH going by the calcs. However, I personally think that it will go faster and well into the 130's TS if Paul can get it to launch.

Guess there is only one way to find out, Paul ;)

Time to go practice your GTR launches :D

Look IMO mid 10's is ridiculously fast for a road car and I would be thrilled with those numbers.

Anything faster than that will create more stress on drive shafts, gearbox, engine longevity (maybe)....in other words, shit will start to break.

Something I would want to avoid and no doubt Paul would too.

Edited by Ants

It WILL be well into the high 130mph and low 10's

If my RWD boat could do a 11.080 @134 mph a 4WD with the power that his has will love that shit.

How many runs till he gets booted for doing 10's is the real $64,000 question.

I will bet a coffee on the third run, 1st will be a nice easy take off and shake out, 2nd will be with a bit of boost backing off at half track, 3rd will be BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATSHBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATSBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATSBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Tell me when its on and I will be there with bells on, I will even bring the Ford and race them for coffee and/or donuts.

Disclaimer: In a 150ishkw taxi I will only race for reaction time

Paul whats going on ?? Your knuckles starting to drag along the ground ?? :mrt: :mrt:

Jeez if you wanted to go dragging I could have got you the 1500HP drag head made up , same specs as the HKS Drag 33 before cams etc.

Harmless plug !!

"If anyone wants one of these heads like Paul or I have send me pm as old mate has quit HKS and is now doing freelance custom engine builds in Japan.

With current exchange rates and ability to pay for everything direct in Japan, now is very affordable time to get something very special made..."

Paul I can delete this if you want just let me know.

But how will a 1500hp car go doing cruises, hill climbs, circuit days, TEXI and such.<br /><br />Pauls car should/will be a excellent all-rounder.<br /><br />And unlike the other 95% of big power Skylines out there I dare say it will be used in anger on the black stuff, and I don't mean boosting on the public roads.

I agree with u 100% with regards to longevity. I had a friend build a JUN rb26 and that required a routine pulldown and rebuild every 5000km...that is nuts (belted out 650kw)

Thats my point !!

I got the head done for Paul in Japan specifically for the power and response he wanted , then throw in yavuz's bit of magic , when he gets it to the track thats where the animal will perform.

1500hp head is pure drag head only.

There's a spec 2 version of Pauls head which can be built but is purely for track car as would be a pig in traffic as a daily.

Haha. Nah Marcus, it's all good :D

What rear diff are you going to run? A queef one like the front one? :)

I was looking at the Quiafe rear (which has JUST been released for GTR's only in the last 2-3 months) but I decided to go the Nismo GT PRO. Thanks Marcus ;)

Is that the one with both the intake and exhaust squish pads removed? I wonder what it would have been like if we left both pads in?!?!

True, but there must be other factors in engine longevity than JUST power alone. Tune is obvious, but I make peak power at 6500. That just means I don't need to rev the guts out of it. Thats lower than the factory peak power of 6800 RPM!

Agree.

However when your at the track 7-8k rpm is going to be really tempting.

Not with so much area under the curve. I found that at Winton just after I went from GT RS's to -5's. 6-6500 RPM and grab the next gear.

Have you got a graph with the torque curve?

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
