Fastest Pumpgas Street Skylines

I'm running 93 octane USA fuel which I think is equivalent to RON98 and am curious what some of the fastest full-body, full interior, full accessory (PS, AC etc) skylines are running. I'm trying to get a benchmark for my setup. I'm currently on 20 psi boost and think that it will tip 130 mph soon and be in the high 10's on 255 hankook RS3 tires now that my boost control issue seems sorted. Curious what target numbers are out there.

If you have some pumpgas (non-E85, non-racegas, non-WMI) time and mph runs please post them here.

Thank You,

Patrick

Here's my last time at the track with bad boost control (spike, pull timing and boost, then slowly recover).

60'   =  1.772
330  =  4.837
1/8 mile  =  7.363 @ 99.14
1/4 mile  =  11.288 @ 126.26

E85 is only available at select areas here. I'm trying to see a comparison of how I'm running compared to others with pump gasoline. US 93 or RON98 please. It's well known that the sky is the limit on E85 - because it's 85% alcohol and only 15% gasoline (which begs the question if it's actually pump GAS). There is validity to this question because making power on 93/98 gasoline has significantly lower limitations of knock etc.

 

I'm assuming the big displacement cars will generally be faster in this category.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
