Hi guys ive tried searching, Drag times but i found nothing i wanted to know for an "R33 Gtst" (post other cars if u want)

I was wondering if people could post up thier 1/4 mile times and how much power (rwkw) they had at the time.

doesnt have to be exact i just want a rough estimate of what power should get u into what time bracket.

from around maybe 9s - 14s, as my uncle has built a XB falcon v8 that runs 11.6 and he said ill never beat him

so basically i just want to know what lyes ahead :)

Cheers Peoples

STD GTS-t + 100hp NOS shot = 11.5

My experience. 400kw, full weight R32 GTR... Mid 10sec @ 138mph

Dude, you know there is so much more to drag racing than just hp....???

A torquey V8 with a well set up auto and suspension could easily siht allover a hard suspension, manual peaky import with more hp... Alot more consistant too.

Power to weight+ traction+power delivery FTW!!!

If you want to get around you uncle in your 33, ur going to spend alot of cash brother. I'd estimate 360+rwkw, gooood tyres, gearset/auto, some susp set up and lots and lots and lots of practice at the track to be consistant.

What he said.

I have a little evo 1 (light gsr version, with built motor etc.) at the moment as a daily work car. That would probably lay the smack down to your uncles car on the drag strip and to rub it in returns better than 10L/100km around town not to mention it's abillity to stop, go around corners and start first time on a cold or hot day. :)

This thread is going nowhere quickly.

lol i agree, i dont think its that hard just to input your pwr with a time...

and to answer the other guys question i know there is more to drag racing then power, its common sense.

all i wanted to know what wat power people had when they ran there times and no 1 can provide, common ppls o.0

A need for very deep pockets. :)

My advice is don't worry about a dumb dick measuring contest with your uncle, just do the stage 1 tune to ~200 kw and have some fun...won't break the bank either. Add decent suspension also.

I was being serious...2rismo ran 11.5 with a stock engine GTS-t...stock turbo as well. Just a Power FC intercooler and turbo back exhaust.

To the guy with the GSR, i hope you know the GSR is actually the heavier version. Nice cars though. You can get one in NZ for around 6k at the moment.

My car ran 11.9 with 310kws and a boost problem. That was on M/T Et Streets with a best 60 foot of 1.7. First time racing this car so times should improve on that.

I thought mid 11's wasn't possible with even 300rwkw according to the experts around here

:D

Half of you guys can't be serious.

Trying to find power results, and calculate 1/4 times. You're looking at +/- 2-3 secs.

You could make a 250rwkw car do low 11's, with the right way about it.

Power isn't all that in Drag Racing.

What you want to focus on is Suspension set-up and splurge on tyres.

You could have a 500rwkw car with positive displacement coilovers wheelspinning the whole track.

Generally 90/10 ratio front/rear is a good start.

Stock suspension in the rear, get some coilovers at the front with 8-10kg springs, wind the dampening up all the way.

Tyres, can't go past Mickey Thompson's.

You got an R33?

Buy some R32 GTR wheels or even 300zx wheels. Slap on fat M/T's with good side wall flex 265/40 R16.

Get a good clutch too, Brass button, or even twin plate. Rear wheel drive cars need riding on the take-off to prevent wheel spin.

Lift Handbrake up and (hold the button in obviously so it goes down again) hold revs just before full boost. Let the clutch out until you feel it starting to bite...hold hold hold..and let go.

Get ready to basically slam second straight away.

Don't hit limiter.

Take out everything (YES EVERYTHING)..spare wheel, jack, seats incl passenger.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.

Don't expect to get there straight away.

It's the battle that makes it fun!

ENJOY..

Hope that helps!

      Shifting questions

      Those 2 solenoids in that assembly I mention, are the PWM solenoids for torque converter lock-up clutch & EPC (line pressure control) ~ when most folks hear of 'solenoid failure', the tendency is to think electrical failure...but fact of the matter is, especially wrt the EPC solenoid (which is moving/running all the time), you can have an electrically 'good' solenoid, that's absolutely broken/worn out mechanically inside...ie; valve plunger return spring rubbing against spring retainer plate, lowering preload pressure.. ...and the solenoid armature extension limit spring wafer with bad wear/broken off petals... ...and if there's ever been any metal flying about, damage to the valve plunger end itself... ...the stuff one never really sees, unless you go the whole 10yards trying to answer the question "why is my line pressure screwy, but TCU isn't flagging any EPC solenoid fault?"...and carefully dissect the solenoid. Worst (and most probable) scenario is when the plate spring petals break off, they get held by the magnetic flux, get mashed up by the armature into little bits, which end up in the space between the armature & shading core bore, and things get stuck or randomly jam up, and your line pressure goes flat and doesn't change...and the TCU never sees it, as it doesn't actively monitor LP... ..then it gets into insidious land, if you end up with lower than expected line pressure...lets say high clutch..and the lower pressure causes it to slip ~ when I say 'slip', think say 2000rpm on the drive plates, and 1800rpm on the driven plates, because the slip is making them under-rotate by 200rpm ; you get all the usual nasties like heat and band/clutch wear, but even if it's only 20rpm slip the same thing happens...and... you'll hardly ever pick this up driving the thing with the torque converter active as it effectively masks these sorts of slippages that are line pressure related ...(the newer TCUs can detect clutch slip rate)...just  FYI as it were...

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys, so Golebys has good prices on Bosch injectors, and also sell an adaptor to go from 1/2 length injector to standard with the Nissan 10.5mm top seal.  Does anyone know if that adaptor is to suit the 14mm or 11mm injector tops?  And re. The bottom seal, to suit my standard RB20 intake, would I be right in saying I can just slip the 14mm square section O ring over the bottom of the new injector and done? Thanks in advance guy, Cheers, Rowdy

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      F my life. I was changing the oil on my R32 GTR today as usual and ran into a bit of a snag. I drained the oil out and was getting ready to finish the job by tightening the drain plug, however The stupid magnetic oil drain plug snapped in half, right at the magnet part. After about an hour of trying to remove it, I used a drill bit, which unfortunately pushed the magnet all the way into the pan, and just leaving the hollow threaded part of the bolt remaining. I was able to remove the hollow portion of the bolt from the oil pan with some pliers but the magnet is still in there.  So, the question is, should I drop the oil pan to get the magnet piece out, or is it okay to leave it in there? I really dont want to drop the pan, i'm about to go nuts.  PSA: Do NOT buy a BLOX magnetic drain plug. This is the one i had.    https://bloxracing.com/products/magnetic-oil-drain-plug-m12x1-25mm?variant=37131252859052&country=US&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw47i_BhBTEiwAaJfPpgti1D2JwO7TDuMpXuqeQPCuIQSAfwxpWQH5rF9MD7sm5SCZDWLR_RoC_YoQAvD_BwE

      I actually have an aftermarket hanger, the detschwerks x1 hanger, but my dw420 has never really sat in it correctly, good to know I can just modify it a bit to suit. Yeah cheers man will definitely have a play with it and hope it solves my dramas.
