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.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
