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

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
