to run a 10 in a full weight gtst, you will need good tyres, try aim for something better then ET street radials because they wont cut it, about 375rwkw, a good clutch and also a decent launch control and ecu with a tuner who can sit with you at the track and play with boost control trim on gears, boost control trim on wheel spin, and ignition timing retard on wheelspin, and also the launch control must not spool too much boost off the mark.

you need a 1.6 or lower 60 foot before you will grab it also.

Its not easy to do on a full weight street car, but i never gave up until i cracked it, i ran 10.80 @ 135mph before i gave up.

if you want to run the 10 you need to put in some hard work!

Except it hasn't done a 10 yet :P

I differ in opinion to most people who want to run 10s

A single 10.9999999 is different to a car setup to run half a dozen in a row. That is where car setup is important

I also don't like to see people wanting a 10 sec streeter but not want to drag "race" ie something other than a off street Wednesday night

I understand not everyone wants to cage their car....

If you don't, set it up to run consistent low 11's and hit the track as much as you like

That's gotta be one* of the dumber things you've posted.

*aside from the 2JZ/Supra talk on a RB/Skyline based forum

If someone wants a street car, on DOT radials that can run a 10.

And drive it around daily, for a reasonable budget - who cares about a "real" comp.

LOL I agree with that one, that Zebra seriously needs to go back to the zoo! ..Saying after reading some of his posts..>_<

ahhh you guys are f**king retarded >_<

you guys want to spend 11ty $$$$ on getting a car to run a 10...ONCE..because you will be booted...then what....spend more money on changing it to a circuit car

Silly me for thinking people who want a "10 second car" actually want to run 10's more than once.

Its like buying a V8 Commodore.... Its no special supercar out of the factory, not unless you buy something really expensive..

But hey if you want a V8 taxi then thats good for you. On the same token if somebody wants a 10 second skyline for the sake of saying I have a 10 second skyline then good for them too LOL

Oh Noez!!!!

God Forbid any variety on the internet....Don't tell me you snatched the rights to "Nissan Skyline" too so you can claim it as your own and make money of others hard work

i thought WSID was introducing the new rule cause heaps of owners of new Fords & holdens where complaining about putting cages in there brand new $80K cars..

most these cars can run 10's for under $5000 of mods..

Ive gone the easy way and have a C4 and 3800 stall. But dont have the 10 yet but shouldnt be far away :thumbsup:

Most people also don't realise how quick a 10 second car is. Fastest car i've ever been in was my dads R33 with 350rwkw, did a low-mid 11 @ 125mph which was freaking quick. Not saying this about OP, but a lot of guys go from a stock liner and think "oh i want a 10 second car hepa derpa" without knowing how quick it really is.

Nope, they did a backflip on the decision unfortunately

never happen on street tyres

drag radials as a minimum and you would be looking at 550+bhp at the crank to get you a high 10 at around 130mph after lots of practice

Auto or manual?

Lots of practice.... PFFT I did one pass :nyaanyaa: But I guess it wasn't a 10 :pirate:

In a manual, you would need atleast 400rwkw and MT Streets and know how to drive. Really drive.

I had 360rwkw (dyno dynamics) or 410rwkw (dynapac with correction) and yes knowing how to peddle well and smash gears helps

I don't think you need a lot of the things you have listed >_<

Also on the street a 10sec car isn't really a 10sec car... Unless it's a GTR :)

    • Regardless, its peace of mind swapping the factory twins for something else. Personally if it was me: Link G4X Additional sensors for engine protection Twins Oil pump mods(maybe throw extension to sump) injectors/Pump Clutch Exhaust Oil Cooler Good pads/suspension Should be good for 3-350kw depending. Granted thats closer to 15k but still.  
    • I think you are over thinking it again 
    • My R33 never ran more than stock boost but it was unclear whether the turbos would last. Maybe OP's car is less of a question mark but for my stock turbos had over 175k km on them + 25 years of use. That's a very long time to hope nobody has ever accidentally put physical shock through them, no debris in the exhaust gas stream, no boost leaks that could cause the compressor to spin faster than it otherwise should, no oil coking in the journals, no wear scars for any reason, etc. You could pull the turbos and disassemble to inspect/overhaul as needed but for that kind of effort you may as well replace the ceramic turbine with something that can take a bit more abuse no matter what you find in there. Stock boost ceramic turbos really don't make that much power either.
    • A Pillar forward?   The part above I was just looking at was the reo bar, I'd replace it, UNLESS the panel beater is GOOD. From your early photos, it did look like the chassis might be tweaked, or at the very least there was tweaks in radiator support. I'd personally do a new / second hand unmolested reo bar, and drill it, only so I know underneath the pretty painted front bar, there's not a mess of other metal that's been hit and smacked.
    • Yes no yes. Pineapple rings do do a certain amount of subframe "locking up", in that they do add some resistance to lateral movements. But the primary reason they exist is to alter the driveline angle. Depending on how you install them you can either increase or decrease rear traction __ a little bit __ by changing the angle of the lower control arms relative to the car/pinion angle. The thing is, given what they are, how and where they are installed, their lack of engagement with anything in particular, there's a limit to how much benefit they can offer. The GKTech collars put metal into the space in the stock format bushes, thereby limiting how much give they have. The rubber is still there to take up some force, albeit perhaps preloaded a little by having some extra metal jammed up into it, but the increase in stiffness comes from making it so that the stock format bush can't deflect that large bit of rubber over into the space adjacent to it, in any direction. Top AND bottom. Which the pineapples certainly do not do. As I said in my other thread - I'm convinced.
