so this guy i know is buying an sti wrx. the previous owner is claiming a wsid quarter mile of 12.1s with only 205kw at the wheels.

i call bullshit. how can that be possible? i reckon youd need the best part of 300 to get a gtr down the other end in 12.1.

thoughts?

Edit: just realised what i wrote.. 11.7??? for 300awkw?? oh god.. the stock R35 with less power does it faster.. all because of its super gearbox.. :D

300? I reckon you need to research :D

A GTR can get into the mid 11's with stock turbos if driven hard. So around 250awkw is all.

No, 250rwkw if that.

Its all about tyres and practice mate.

I went 12.9 with 210rwkw back when i was racing (1400kg), and that was 225 street tyres, semis/slicks would be mid-low 12 no problem.

phwoar. i reckon ive got about 250, so we might give it a good shake! smash all the hsvs there running 14s.

one more thing, since you appear to be a source of much knowledge. ill chuck v power racing in, 100ron. is it worth getting booster? much more powah? bad for engine etc?

No point without tuning for the fuel really.

But wouldn't it be a good idea to prevent pinging? I know its a good idea on the track but since the drag is soooo much shorter is it even worth going a higher octane fuel?

My mate does 12.2 in a 280awkw GTR, with 4WD problems. He could do even better.

Isn't it 5-10% ethanol? Not recommend for your car, can damage the injectors. A one off? Then i wouldn't worry.

      Rebuilt Rb25det issues

      By KyoyaR33 · Posted

      Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated

      Well, no. It's an 023, which is pretty similar to an 040. Although it is hard to tell from the specs, as given.

      My R32 Money Pit & The Headaches That Come With It

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hmm. Maybe the (other thing I forgot about!) Haltech removes at least some, if not all, of the problem I described. I guess there is still the possibility of getting it wrong if the AC is set up/wired up for the Haltech as if it was in an R34 (simply because it's on a Neo), and that's playing foul with the R32 AC computer.
