Hi all.

I want to go to wsid, but I want to break into high 12's....

At the moment Hybrid FMIC, filter, mongrel exhaust, locked diff, 4 puck clutch, fuel pump 040??, Dr Drift Ecu, r33 turbo,no interior bar two front seats. 255 rears on 17's. adj cam gears to go on (180rwkw?)

I'm curious if this will achieve a high 12, or do I have a little bit to go yet???

What are your experiences in breaking 13's???

Cheers.

My R32 when i had the RB20 in ran a few 12.9 @116mph on 225/45/17" street tyres.

It only made 188RWKW with a small hi-flow turbo, intercooler, 3" exhaust and ECU, so it CAN be done you just need another 15rwkw or so.

That MPH is MASSIVE for only 188rwkw!

Yeah, the MPH is a bit higher than my VL which had 200rwkw and ran 12.6@112MPH.

Ill try and get the timeslip up, my car was car# 600, i cant find the actual 12.9 with 116mph, but here is a 12.9 sec slip and one when i started pulling 116mph.

sky30, thats a brilliant result

the best i managed was 13.1 @ 108mph with 225/50/16 street tyres and standard suspension. That was on about my 8th run of the day.

i was making 207rwkw with a hks2530 and ~1.25bar

but sky30's time makes my efforts look dismal!

173rwkw = 13.3@106mph (2.3 60ft) on 205 tyres R33 gtst. 33 deg ambient.

Dyno numbers don't tell you everything. I recently thought of tracking the time over the x axis for rpm. This way you can track the accelleration times under load in each gear. This will directly translate to a relative 1/4 mile prediction as things like rotational mass greatly affect accelleration and can be shown using this measurement, without it you can't see the benifit. The physical weight of the car and areodynamics are then the only factors left to associate.

Next time you go to the dyno get your stop watch out and see how long it takes to make the power. Bolt in a lightweight flywheel or lighter rims, change the diff ratio and see just how big an influence these things can have.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
