Totally stock. Driver only, full tank. Launch at approx 2200 RPM.

How many runs did you do and what mode did you find works best?

Did you use manual or auto shift?

Did you use LC?

thx!

I am planning a run at Eastern Creek in about three weeks with an ADM with HKS GT570 Kit plus Cobb Custom Tune installed. I will let you know the time soon...

I had it set on RRR and let the car do the shifting. It was just the one run using RaceChrono software on my Nokia N95 with a Qstarz BT-Q890 nano 66 Ch 5Hz GPS receiver. It was 3.84 secs to 100 kph and the road was a bit dusty which may have helped, maybe not. Can't really tell but it spun a bit more than usual off the line but didn't bog as much as a result.

I stalled it a bit but not fully to 3000 rpm so again maybe theres a bit more to be had..

Good work Duncan :)

Nice trap speed too!

Thanks Martin, yeah 125mph is haulin for such a heavy car.

Here is a 125mph run (11.3's though) ignore the reaction time as the driver was frigging around with launch control

Hello All

Have any of you guys taken your R35 down the 1/4 mile yet? If so, what times have you recorded?

12.01 at 158mph (launch control)

158mph? wow that's a new world record!

- must have been at Heathcote, lol.

lol,

11.92 at 194km/h @ Eastern Creek. (Not one good Launch control start)

Mid pipe only, terrible 0-100 times (4.1) They kept wetting the burnout area which I had to drive through.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
