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

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
