Really... They dont do 100km/h in 2nd? Rev it more man!?

I know the r33 gtst's do 100km/h @ 7000rpm.

Dads Euro accord is not bad, 120km/h @ 7000rpm

I wish 1st gear was more like 75km/h rather than 50km/h in the r33. I find 1st isnt very good for booting coz its just wheel spin, although if I was 4wd like ur GTR 'u basted lol' I spose 50km/h is fine.

Mines 'totally standard' bar a cat back 3" exhaust and pods and i'm pleasantly suprized at how well it goes in a straight line, should hold its own against most factory cars.

Certainly a big jump from your previous Lazer ;)

But dont get to excited as there not that fast, and theres still plenty of cars out there that will smoke you (and Me!) :)

And IMHO its not a good look getting smoked in a GTR as generally people expect them to be quick and win...be selective who you race :);)

Aim to achieve about 450rwhp which can be done with a turbo/injectors/afm/powerFC/exhaust/cams combination.

It is reliable on a good, stock internalled, engine and won't destroy the gearbox/clutch/drivetrain.

Then there wont be too many cars on the road that will smoke it :) :)

Cheers

Ken

yeah, I'm guessing some R8 commodores and TE/TS50 Falcons would beat it

but I am not that confident in changing gear fast yet :)....feels a bit bumpy in the change too

I rekon the fun thing is letting little excels, lancers and lasers beat you :)...and you in the GTR easing up to the speed limit

no factory standard R8 or falcon should come close, especially from standing start!

remove the boost restrictor and retune the stock ecu and not much will come close :crazy:

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
