she  reckons they did it on a air strip so room wasnt an issue, i just wouldnt beleive that the auto trans and let alone a 1600 would be able to push the car that farr, top gear in an auto would be redlining before it got up to 230 even wouldnt it? and it looked like a stock car pretty much...

They got a tow from a plane taking off. :lol:

Lets kill this one off right now, I don't have my Honda gear ratio chart with me, but from memory the manual B16A does 27 kph per 1,000 rpm. So 280 kph would be 10,370 rpm. So it's IMPOSSIBLE :)

But wait there is more ;)

If I remember rightly the auto is 8% shorter geared, so that would mean 11,200 rpm at 280 kph :lol:

:) cheers ;)

whats a r32 gtrs stop speed btw?

I don't have my gear charts for Skylines with me either, again from memory 275kph = ~8,500 rpm. If it has enough power to push it there of course. At Philip Island we get to around 265 kph on the main straight which is somewhat downhill, and that's with 380 4wkw

:) cheers :)

hey. Its 12.20am and just got back from a burn in my mates s2k. THAT can definately do 280.... We onli took it up too 250 before i asked him to back it off. Thats a h22 in there but...

We took his type r integra up too 240 as well without too much of a sweat so i rekon it could do 280 without too much hassle. BUT i believe thats a b18 or sumthing in there.

That being said, it would barely be able to do 280 without some mods so i definatley dont think that a b16 could come close.

***all done on a legitimate track**** none of that open road shit.....

Interesting, the F20 turns clockwise and the H22 turns anti clockwise, so that 250kph was in reverse, right? ;)

:) cheers :D

Theoretical top speed for a R32 GTR is about 250km/h. Don't need a rocket scientist to figure out that a RB26DETT has more torque than a B16A engine. I don't care what aerodynamic coefficent a Intergra is it'll never reach 250km/h (unless a tornado is blowing wind in the right direction and plumetting down to earth from orbit, YES, it may reach 280km/h).

Just cause the speedo says, doesn't mean it can do!

true but a type r teg is not far off. i was in my mates and we got it to 240km/h which i call close and damn good for a 1.8.

and yes i no at speeds like that that the speedo is not quite accurate but i am just saying what i have experianced. :P and civics have B16A integra B18C.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
