10s R32 GTR?

[wreckedhead]

depending on the way you drive, is what will make or break your gearbox. but to keep it the 10s with out blowing it up depends on how you maintain your car.

wreckedhead, that little phrase u got going there is almost going to stick in my mind as much as "Its not how you stand by your car..."

waste of money for the motec, stroked motor, forged internals, custom plenum, twin bosch pumps and surge tank, you dont need all that stufff to run 10s,  

all you would need is injectors, 044 fuel pump, cams, bigger turbo(s) power fc, cooler, standard box is fine, and some good slicks you should get into the 10s with a few passes, then after you get into the 10s then you have to spend big bucks to get back on the track.

I know, I think my mind is set on 9's But can just run it on low boost for easy 10's

I agree with BU5TER, and that was the underlying point I was making. One time wonder or long time contender?

Butler, could you please let me know any info you have regarding the Apexi cranks/stroker kits as I can't seem to find any info on them.

TIA.

You need 450rwhp and a good clutch and reasonable tyres.

Jade fishers R33 has Arias pistons ( all origional parts went back in inc the old bearings),smallish ITS plain bearing turbo and Wolf plugin ECU and ran 11.1 all last season with not one problem.

Single throttle kit going on now and i think 10s will be easy this season.

2530's you aint running pump fuel for 400kw

anything is possible if your not running  PULP

Straight Av gas.., around 100 octane. And that is not suppose to be the best. Have to when the best fuel here is 96.. and it's no good.

Be interesting to see what it would go like with some C16.

It's a testament for the GTR engine though, and it has done more than a few 10's runs without failure... I would call that consistent.

Not only that is was a daily driven street car.. damn I miss her

A note on the Trust 6 Speed box.. we removed it from the GTR running a T88 to repair it, he couldn't run good times with it.

With a stock box, he didn't have a problem running 10's.

I hated driving the dog box on the street, it's just a major pain in the ass. They don't like to change at low RPM.

btw, i have never heard of a 3.1L stroker kit for the rb26. biggest is the OS 3L kit and apexi 2.9L

The 3.1L that was previously mentioned I'm assuming is a RB30 block bored to a 3.1 to fit oversized pistons.

bingo...an easy 3.1

I'm struggling to get my 32R into the 11's let alone 10's and power so far is 370rwhp on paper and going off other cars should be into the 11's easy but it's not . Best run so far is 12.1@114mph with a 1.760ft , it comes down alot to your tuning as it's not alway outright horsepower that gets low ET's something that I've realised and am looking to correct.

[RNS11Z]

i know of an r32 with 430rwhp that went 12.1 @ 119mph

Hi 7heavn

Unfortunately the best times for a GTR are achieved with a "brutal" launch (this makes me cringe every time I do this to my R). Your 1.7 60' time suggests that you are probably not bogging down on launch (your at 6 to 7k before side stepping the clutch, right?).

You are right about the tuning - if you have adjustable cam gears and have dialed in for max hp (at the expense of mid range tourque), you may be dropping off below the max torque in between gear changes. A dyno graph showing power and torque vs revs would help.

I was previously rattling off 12.5s with only 320 rwhp (std terbs) fairly consistently with 1.9 60' times. It sounds like more practice (and maybe a little cam timing adjustment) will see you crack 11s fairly soon. Remember to pre-load the drivetrain using the handbrake and take that 2nd to 3rd change E-A-S-Y.

Good luck.

id think bout changing diff gear sets also, to maybe 4.3 like the gts4 has

my 32 gtst wasnt the same with 4.11's the 4.3's bring the 26 to life over the quarter.

my 26 has 272 cams NO internals and a big single turbo its run best now of 11.1 @ 126mph im sure as is 10's are possible.

[Gav]

Good point Sean - your car just remined me that weight has a LOT to do with low ETs.

[N I B]

My wifes GTR ran 12.0 @ 119.34mph with me being very soft on her car, as you can see 119.34mph means strong 11s driven hard.Her car had a cat back, gmax clutch and a Wolf plugin using the stock AFMs but nothing else. 338rwhp.

We have removed the AFMs now and and ive been told by the boss to take it to the plex again and not to come home with out some strong 11s so ill see what it can really run.

Hey

Yep 6500rpm sidestep the reason I mentioned the 60ft is just to clarify that not much is being lost at the bottem of the track you see 370rwhp and 114mph through the traps doesn't make sense . My mph should be something closer to steve-sst's wife's car . Only other thing I can think of other then tuning is mine is a vspec is the gearing differen't?.
