Based on gear ratios, I worked out the top speed of a R33 GTS25t to be ~270kmh. This is assuming the car has enough power to push it along, so probably not applicable to a completly stock car. I'd imagine it could do 240kmh comfortably stock.

I hear that 5 speed GTRs can do 240kmh in 4th gear, now thats some long legs.

I've done 260km/h @5500 rpm in 5th in my R33 GTR with stock gearbox. I slowed coz I didn't know the road too well so pushing it further wasn't a good idea.

I reckon it's got the go for 300km/h but needs a fair bit of straight road and a long braking area.

On a cold night I had the needle just past the resettable odometer on my R32. I'd had the car not even a few weeks from Japan and it just had a cat-back fitted, however this did take quite a run up to achieve! The lines on the private road just looked like one big white one at speed. I slowed as soon as I saw tailights in front. Can do 180 in 4th before rear starts hopping, urging me to grab 5th.

I have this thing, after I run someone or do a silly speed my right foot goes all jumpy and shakey and I have to either stop and walk on it or just mash it into the firewall to keep it still, any one else get this?

Now you all know my darkest secret.

Prolly the ignition has been replaced cause they were sold over there. See how they got that dumbass "help me turn the key with my big fat yank fingers" thingy. they only use them in america i think.

      Install a MAP sensor pre and post throttle. Best data you could have for NA, then play with the bends and/or air box and see how much of inflection is created at WOT on the plot.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.

      Factory oil temp sensor in a RS4V without gauges?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
