Gazr32gtr,

I would agree with you that every time a magazine post 1/4mile times they seem to change. The real problem is that it will depend very much on the conditions, i.e. surface,temperature, size of wheels etc.

I have heard claims of 12.8 for stock R32 GTR's, but if you go to the drags that simply isn't the case. Expect a mid to low 13 if you get the launch and gear changes right, spend a bit of money and 12's a quite realistic.

Just my 2c.

See'ya:burnout:

Hi,

could someone tell me what 1/4 mile times and speeds and R32 GTR would run stock? every time i read about it i see vastly different times.

Thanks

Gary

hows 12.34 grab you at 112 MPH.Only mods are boost controller, exhaust and power fc (not tuned only running a base map program). This car could have run even quicker if i didnt miss 3rd on final run (60' time was 1.732) falken 'el cheapo' tyres were also used. With some cam gears, proper tyres and a tune, 11 second passes are a certainty. Paul DIRTgarage.

lots of times vary because the company/publisher etc does their own test and states that time, especially in magazines

the factory nissan time is 12.8

obviously testing would have been done over many many 1/4 passes with brand new 32gtr's getting pushed to the limit by test drivers.

No one has an even near new stock r32 gtr anymore, and no one will drive it like the test drivers because u care about your car :D

hence no one is getting 12.8 from their standard 32 gtr

lots of people argue its upto the driver etc, but when comparing cars, your not comparing drivers

Stock GTR times are of little interest to owners of these cars because most of us start changing things the momnet we get our mits on them.

I know of one R32 with an exhaust (cat back) and restrictor removed otherwise factory that ran 12.2. No ecu remap or anything.

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
