For my run, that calculator is out by 100kw.

What happened to the nitto engine in mercurys gtr?

I heard a few different stories, one was bent rods in 1 and 6 after running on the dyno with a headgasket leak.

This is what i heard to. Also heard it happened before that 1072hp run :wacko: .

Also heard there is a nitto rb32 being built for when the current bottom end gives way.

I'm not really an expert on the subject but if you take out an auto and put in a manual, aren't you going to make more HP at the wheels?

This would also coincide with your higher trap speed

of course..lol, but doesn't the moroso calculator work out weight shifted power at the "engine"?, engine power will still be the same

rwhp will be different, in my old car it would make another 50-60rwhp i would have thought manual, hence me asking the question..

guessing it doesnt account for that

cheers

Marko ur time and mph is very impressive for that power

My best is 11.30 @ 127.5mph with 340rwkw

And my 32 Gtr got weighed during engineering process and was 1620kg i think (full interior, spare wheel, etc)

With reduced weight it is closer to my power but still 70kw over the mark

Is it possible you actually had 500hp? And half a tank of fuel? Can you send me a PM with your setup so I can see what sort of power you should/would make?

my cat isn't too healthy at the moment unfortunately :( - i'm not going de-cat, so should i just get one of those 100cell 5" venom ones? haven't bought a cat since my last GT-T and that was years ago... just some little 3" catco one....

some SAU searching brings up Venom a lot but some uber german brand called HJS gets a bit of a mention...

don't know if there have been any major cat improvements over the years, bit out of the loop with these things....

EDIT: forgot about the ballistic cats... i do remember those from a while back

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
