Stock R33 0-100 Times

[32GTRB]

hi, could someone please tell me the 0-100 times for a stock GTR and a stock GTST. both 33 series. i know the GTR34 runs about 4.6s. dunno about the r33 though. thanks

[paulr33]

try a search, its been covered a few times

[Big Rizza]

ballpark figures, 5 seconds, 6 seconds.

I'd like to think the R33 GTST does it in 6 secs though I think 7 is more like it (based on experience in other cars where reliable times are available). I know import magazine did it in 6.2 or 6.3 though I don't know how reliable their figures are.

Motor magazine time the R33 GTR at 5.65 to 100. They had a passenger and a full tank of fuel. They thought that it could be reduced by another half second if they were close to empty.

well paul has done 0-100km/h in 4.88 seconds with maybe 180-190rwkw in a 33 GTS-t...so id say a GTR with more power and 4wd can beat that

0-100km/h quoted times depend on so many factors, which is why I only gave ballpark figures. Quoting the times from one magazine means SFA - there is no guarentee that on that day in those conditions they acheived the best the car is capable of.

Also, a seat of the pants experience is not quantifiably comparable, as so much of how quick a car feels depends on the power delivery and torque curve, rather than peak power and outright acceleration. A car with a very flat torque curve from idle to redline might feel slower than an equally quick turbo car with a huge mid range surge of torque that pins you into your seat.

For your Motor reference, remember that a few years back at PCOTY Motor clocked the Bentley Contineltal GT at over 6 seconds for 0-100km/h. Does this mean that this is the best the AWD 411kw Bentley is capable of? No.

So I stand by my previous ballpark figures.

I agree that quoting one magazines time is no indication of what the car can necessarily do though it is what it did do on that day. So it is capable of what I have quoted. I have never seen any other reliable source provide a figure.

You are right in that a seat of the pants feel is not necessarily accurate. The cars that I compare it to have flatter torque curves than the Skyline and feel very similar in speed. Given that these cars in numerous other tests do it in around 6.8 seconds and using what you have said above, this would indicate that these cars are slightly faster than the GTS25T.

Don't get me wrong, I would like to think the GTS25T can do it in around 6secs (as I own one), I just don't think they can. Maybe I just own a slow one or I can't drive.

im guessing that the figures mentioned for the gtr are with dumping the clutch at 7K rpm. I think if you had to be nice to the car the r33 gtr would be in the low 6s when stock. This is also what autospeed found. The gts25t would be easily in the 7s (its not a quick car when stock).

[koleka]

im sure tyres would then again make a big difference

Didnt really answer his question the key word here was stock. There are so many factors involded in times and remember when they are tested they use professional drivers and the give the car its all.

heard the new hyundia v6 190kw does it in 7.2 secs.. impressive for a hyundia..

5 flat with a 7k clutch dump, maybe even just under with a decent clutch and sticky tyres.

gtst probably under 7 but not by much

I easily managed to do 0-100 in 6.5sec in my totally stock standard '98 R33 GTS25t (other than wheels/springs)....I didn't do a tyre/clutch frying launch either.

This was measured with a Greddy turbo timer in 0-100km/h attack mode (it's hooked up to ecu speed sensor).

So I definitely believe they're capable of low 6's in standard trim...

in my s2 r33 gts-t stock ran 6.9 and with a pod, cat back, hi flo cat , fmic, no tuning nothing, i ran a 6.5...
