she  reckons they did it on a air strip so room wasnt an issue, i just wouldnt beleive that the auto trans and let alone a 1600 would be able to push the car that farr, top gear in an auto would be redlining before it got up to 230 even wouldnt it? and it looked like a stock car pretty much...

They got a tow from a plane taking off. :lol:

Lets kill this one off right now, I don't have my Honda gear ratio chart with me, but from memory the manual B16A does 27 kph per 1,000 rpm. So 280 kph would be 10,370 rpm. So it's IMPOSSIBLE :)

But wait there is more ;)

If I remember rightly the auto is 8% shorter geared, so that would mean 11,200 rpm at 280 kph :lol:

:) cheers ;)

whats a r32 gtrs stop speed btw?

I don't have my gear charts for Skylines with me either, again from memory 275kph = ~8,500 rpm. If it has enough power to push it there of course. At Philip Island we get to around 265 kph on the main straight which is somewhat downhill, and that's with 380 4wkw

:) cheers :)

hey. Its 12.20am and just got back from a burn in my mates s2k. THAT can definately do 280.... We onli took it up too 250 before i asked him to back it off. Thats a h22 in there but...

We took his type r integra up too 240 as well without too much of a sweat so i rekon it could do 280 without too much hassle. BUT i believe thats a b18 or sumthing in there.

That being said, it would barely be able to do 280 without some mods so i definatley dont think that a b16 could come close.

***all done on a legitimate track**** none of that open road shit.....

Interesting, the F20 turns clockwise and the H22 turns anti clockwise, so that 250kph was in reverse, right? ;)

:) cheers :D

F20 (S2000) is a RWD and H22 is a FWD [i believe?]

so having a H22 in a S2000 sounds like rubbish. and sk pwnd ur mate.

Theoretical top speed for a R32 GTR is about 250km/h. Don't need a rocket scientist to figure out that a RB26DETT has more torque than a B16A engine. I don't care what aerodynamic coefficent a Intergra is it'll never reach 250km/h (unless a tornado is blowing wind in the right direction and plumetting down to earth from orbit, YES, it may reach 280km/h).

Just cause the speedo says, doesn't mean it can do!

true but a type r teg is not far off. i was in my mates and we got it to 240km/h which i call close and damn good for a 1.8.

and yes i no at speeds like that that the speedo is not quite accurate but i am just saying what i have experianced. :P and civics have B16A integra B18C.

      What do you do with all the spares?

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      I did a pretty ruthless clean up before I left townsville. If it wasn't a part to suit a car I currently have it was sold or binned. I have all my stuff organised in big tubs with lids that stack from supercheap and bunnings depending on who was cheaper at the time. Parts were sorted by either chasis/motor/Fabrication/general/electrical. I have a mezzanine that's 7mx2.3m and all lives up there. Easy to access when needed and out of the way.  I also have the issue of selling and dealing with scumplace/marketbook was actually going to list stuff today but couldn't be bothered as been stuffed around too much. I generally let a few people know I want to off load stuff and people pass it on to others to contact me, generally easy sale and I'm never looking to make big dollars. Rather it gets used than go in the bin. Next clean up will be around Xmas and if doesn't go on the s15 it's going bar 2 sets of wheels.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Did a little bit on the V37 today. I bought this LED kit out of the US https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/125953603618. Best I could find online but didn't look great, in the end the quality was pretty much right and it did come with locations for each light including rear number plate and a few spares. The factory owners' manual was also useful with information on where to pop each light out without damage. I prefer the LED look as I use it daily including at night and the LEDs are both brighter and the white light is easier to read with. Vanity mirror comparison, LEDs just look more modern The glove box was the only difficult one (and the only one that was previously blown.....), steps were Open glovebox 50% but not fully open Push up on bottom of the box to unclip it on both side, not screws or pins to remove Remove the top stays at an angle, right side then left, because.... Before dropping the glovebox totally, remove soft close clip on left Then, remove 7 screws to release the glovebox surround Twist the globe holder anti clock to release it from the surround In this case, the LED globe supplied was wider than factory and did not fit, so I ground down each side about 1mm then inserted it Last trick, start engine to check the LED polarity is correct, the globe only operates when the engine is running (whether the box is open or closed) I also moved the 4G booster and wifi across from the Fuga, a little frustrating as I could not find a good Accessories ACC source anywhere in the boot so I'll run a wire from the cabin next time I get a chance. Also, unlike the Fuga the external antenna wire does not quite fit between the rear windscreen and the body so I think I'll have to drill a hole in the roof to mount it. Probably not that interesting for most people so I'll just post once complete

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Pretty sure I could do but it would need to be exported and reimported as the current import approval is race only. But in practice there are plenty of other practical reasons it can't be a road car despite their potential value these days like stripped interior looms, cage to cut out etc Nah, no mods to it other than updating the roll age to current regs. It makes about 350 (laggy) kilowatts on the N1s at 18psi which is enough to push it around the place
