It was close!!

I worked out the theoretical top speed of an R33 manual is 294km hr

This is how i did it.

Put into 5th

1500RPM = 52kmh

2000RPM = 74kmh

2500RPM = 96kmh

Then i guessed the gap is 22kmh per 500RPM in 5th, so i worked out that at 7000RPM, speed is 294kmh. Have no idea if this is correct thou!

What colour and model was it? I might know him as I used to be a Honda Integra Type R freak.

Pushead... you used to be scared to drag me:)

They only make 141-147kw at the motor... but they shouldn't beat you in a drag. Watch out for the really done up ones, I know a couple that will take us slightly modded skylines anyday.

hey, i musta been misled got this from some site "With its 147kW four shifting 1160kg, the Integra Type R has a decent power-to-weight ratio. Top speed is reputedly 225 km/h." not bad eh.

cr34tion the car was white, and i'm from newy....so no chance

The Type-R owners up there are very into there cars just like us with our Skylines.

Anyways, I wanna see what this Mondeo can do.. might cruise by Monash today as I took a day off work.

i do remember some wanker in a blue mondeo with yellow crap on it trying to race me but he got his ass handed to him on a plate with 2 passengers i was dropping off at the casino.

I am not sure about that yellow thing, but I have seen the sky-blue Mondeo, with a very loud exhaust. He was always in the South Yarra - Doncaster route and always giving the car a hrad time. I'd be on strike if I am the engine... Hehehe...
