but why would you want to go that fast?

Because he is a Kriminal.

Pay what ever it costs you test your top speed at your local track.

Its a lot safer and will prevent you making the news WHEN not if you get busted.

"Yet another Skyline clocking 200km/h"

Its not some thing we really want to hear.

Now that you have reworded the origional post. :cheers:

That really depends on how much power and rev's you have.

I would say 240-250-260km/h is within reach.

My little old VS Commodore 5 speed with a few mild mods used to only 'just' crack 250km/h so no doubt a mild RB25 which makes around 380hp will be able to crack it also. Depends if you run out of rev's.

Do the Math. :D

The standard soft limit is fifth gear at 5000rpm. at that speed you are doing approx 190kph

If you divide by 5000 and then times it by the redline (7200), you get 273.6kph.

Didnt you learn about ratios in school?

The standard soft limit is fifth gear at 5000rpm.

Soft limit? What's that then? Haven't heard that expression before.

so at 8krpm you'd be nudging just over 300km/h? Must try that out!! (Private closed race track of course. :cheers:

You don't even need 250hp to crack 250km/h.

haha.. Come on buddy.. This is a VS 5ltr Slugger Commodore we are talking about. :P

250km/h is a fair speed, most new cars even the ones making 250hp at the fly would be pushed to get 250km/h.

I was actually referring to the bit where you said "no doubt a mild RB25 which makes around 380hp will be able to crack it also."

...and im saying you dont even need 250hp to crack 250km/h (and you dont even need 7,000+ rpm).

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
