13.4 second 1/4 for your 'stockish' R33. (A how to guide).

check out time slip.

Front pipe, cat and exhaust.

Boost up to 12 p.s.i

Unshielded Pod. (shield now on, but not during run)

BASS OUT

rev210 is correct. Standard Turbo, Standard Intercooler, Standard Computer.

I just had a bit of a test run on a friend Passport G-Timer to see what to expect roughly with my new mods, since running a 14.1 with catback and pod.

I now have a cold air box with HKS filter, 3" catback exhaust, S-AFC2 and bleed valve with the car dyno tuned to run 11psi - running stock suspension and 255" rear tires. With the boost set to 10psi (don't entirely trust the bleed valve since I found it gets boost spikes on the road) the more notable results were:

0-60mph - 4.93

0-100mph - 12.05

0-60ft - 2.05

330ft - 5.78

1/8th - 8.78 @ 83.2mph

1000ft- 11.33

1/4 - 13.47 @ 105.3mph

Run was done with mechanically sympathetic gearchanges, I think there would be a bit more in it :D

Thats a crazy 60', sure you dont have attessa hiding there somewhere? lol

Shame i dont remember all the rest of my stats (namely 8th mile data) to compare, looks like the whales could all have a good go with each other.

Lith,

If you look at my old time slip at the start of this thread thats a mid 13 time for sure. However the g-tech reading was not done on a drag strip surface? If not you might find the time is going to be generous by comparison. If you get the same 60ft time on the real drag stip you will certainly be getting that time however.

I agree completely, hence the fact that I am quoting my 14.1 @ 103mph time on my sig as my cars performance - despite the fact the car has a lot more power than it had when I did that time, as until winter ends there is no chance to prove its new potential :cheers: Anyone who knows me will know that I don't like to give myself false hopes, that time was just used to get an indication of progress and I posted it because it was an interesting comparative result.

Out of interest, the used road surface IS actually quite difficult to launch on (and there is the whole fact that being winter, its not going to be a nice sticky surface) - the launch method was virtually driving off from stationary and giving it gas when it was rolling (basically a 2000-2500rpm slip then floor it) which still resulted in some spin (despite quite good 255s)... but was easier to control from lower revs etc. 2.05 60ft indicates a very good launch, but because of the nature of the technique I wasn't carrying as much speed at the end of the 60ft as from slightly higher revs :)

How on earth can 107.6mph = 109mph??   Especially when 13.68 equals 13.6?   A

Talk about optimism

I thought it was 108.7? Ahh well, i couldnt actually remember, and i knew if i put up roughly what it was you would correct me anyway hahaha~ Hence the "optimistc" ness, you would notice it faster lmao

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
