There is a bit of talk about what mph a car should run at the drags with a given power output, thought be good to get sum results and discussion on this.

Be good to get sn idea of what mph a skyline should run with say

300rwkw

350rwkw

400rwkw

450rwkw

Etc.

So people post your mph results (1/4mile or 1/8mile, or both) and what power the engine made, and model of skyline.

400awkw 11.3 @ 125mph

500awkw 11.2 @ 130mph

Full weight R34 GTR:- spent lots of dough to get 100 extra KW and only dropped .1 of a sec and picked up 5mph in the deep. ( both with 1.7 Sixty's )

Should have let someone who could drive have a crack. Seen an 11.007 @ 127 same car 350awkw.

what time was that?

did you get half track MPH?

11.3 I think it was. It wasn't on the best surface. Half track NFI. I'll head back to the drags after my tune is complete and give it another go. Car has gone 11.1 previously.

125mph and 400rwkw don't really match, power is certainly down there. Even @ 500rwkw you should be sitting 134mph EASY.

R33 GTR 340rwkw

11.5 @ 123mph

Full weight (full tank & spare in the boot) with a larger sump (9.5ltrs)/brakes/oil cooler etc + 85kg driver.

I wish I'd put it on the scales to see how much over factory with all the extras.

HR31 GTS-R 220rwkw @ 1480kg

11.9 @ 110mph

    • Hey crew, Failed my WOF cause of a lower control arm, and I've decided to hit both arms, and also the compression rods at the same time(seems they're gonna be the most likely upcoming failure points from some discussions with the lads over on the G35 reddit). I've looking at these form Z1:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-compression-rod-p-40716.html https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-lower-control-arm-p-40674.html I asked Z1 if they'd work as it's the same platform, just RHD vs LHD. I basically got told "Lol dunno". Specifically they aren't aware of any difference but can't guarantee fitment as they haven't done it on a 350GT. So guess I'm asking is if there is any issues with using 2005 G35 coupe suspension parts on a 2005 350GT coupe? Orginally I thought it could be something in the way of the arms that each control arm is designed to be positioned around, but that'd be an engineering nightmare for Nissan needing two different shaped control arms 😅
    • ^ This. The mode door actuator is a common failure, as is the actuator and/or the actual valve for the coolant flow control valve. I also don't know how available the mode door actuator is these days. I've been meaning to look into it and get one from wherever is possible, to keep in the shed for the rainy day when mine eventually fails. Anyway, the advice to you is to search the usual NOS part supply places, or even just go to Nissan and see what they list.
    • Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"
    • I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?
    • Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT
