Hey Adrian..

thanks for the advice.

When i slip the clutch, the ceramic combined with the lightened flywheel doesnt make the car too happy...thats why i was dropping it (as best that i could) at about 3k...

Im hoping the extra power the car is putting out will be controlled by the clutch if i slip it out while revving harder..

Hey Cameron - i actually thought my 60' was a bit lame. I would like to get it to a 2.0 flat..

Hey Adrian - Yep thats what im hoping for next time i hit the drags...My tyres are (unfortunately for drags) 18's....but i have 265's on the rear, so i may have a sporting chance...

Thanks SiksII - its great fun !!

i believe alot of it is how you drive your car and the track conditions at the time. my car ran 13.85 @ 101 miles/hr in Darwin of all places. it has similar mods, except i have standard clutch and no suspension mods at that time. Also still have stock intercooler. Like i said above, every 1 is different as to how they drive there car down the 1/4. It was 29 Degree's that night and the track is pretty slippery.

209kW and good tyres should see a high 12 if you can drive.  My car makes less power than that (193kW) and ran a 12.799 @ 105mph.

Are u serious!?

first attempt at 1/4 about 6 months ago i did 13.8@104

spose that was launching at 2200rpm, but still your a second faster with 1 more mph :confused:

Yhe i agree with 2rismo. I ran a 13.4 @ 108mph wiht a clutch slipping in 2nd and 3rd gear, couldnt tell if it was clutch or wheelspin in 1st gear:( That was with a 2.4 6-ft time (i cant drive plus slipping clutch) and only around 180-200rwkws tops because if i ran more then 1bar then i had a miss.

So about 200rwkws (tops), slipping clutch and sh1tty 60ft i still ran a 13.4. Isnt the theory if i cut 3/10s of my 60ft then that equates to between 0.4-0.5 seconds thru the traps?!?!?! SO that means i woudl be looking at about a 12.9/13.0, then a clutch that didnt slip and im sure i would have been able to run a 12.8 (approx).

LOL, Splitfires and 1.4bar and i reckon i can give a 12.5 a nudge:)

There is a small but noticeable weight difference here. An R32 with 200 rwkw should run a fast ET than an R33 with 200 ya?

Looking around these forums I would hope to get 13.6 with my power except that then I remembered that I have a 4 door and it's heavier than a 2 door R34. Makes for better balance on the track but there is a little extra weight in it which may be making a difference on the strip.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
