13.4 second 1/4 for your 'stockish' R33. (A how to guide).

[judd]

Rhino please post :-) i want to know how to get a 12.4 with my R...very interesting...altho quite happy with 12.9 with std trim.

[rev210]

gts-vspec,

You didn't have the wing on when you did the 13.5, what about the other times you went down?

And didn't you take 10% out of the mixtures while you were there too?

judd,

You should just PM Rhino, he's a WA boy so have a look for him on the WA side of the forum.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

rev,

No I haven't bothered ever running with the wing on, apparently it does make a noticable difference, slower when its on due to the drag.

The only mixtures I've change is to take out some fuel at idle, nothing related to the power.

Judd

this is how Rhino does it

launch at 7000-7500rpm

hold on for the ride.

he has turbo back exhaust, tein suspension, boost restricter removed and a chipped ecu.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Judd,

Rhino's previoous best was somewhere in the mid 13's, so don't be too dishearted. Once your comfortable with the car you can start launching and shifting harder, you will see your times tumble.

Ive run my best times with no BOV

Will put one back on once i fix some problems associating it,

I dont get any lag..at all! Just puts a little extra pressure on the turbo between gear changes and sounds a little poofy!

Rev i think you need to do a few mid 13s to back up most of the how to do a 13.5 bla bla with stock bla blas, or maybe im just Jealous

I should be ready for a squirt next wednesday at kwinana for steady high 12s

[rev210]

I have done 5 mid 13's including the 13.4, mate. Three 13.5's, one 13.6 and the 13.4.

Geez how many do I have to do already, I'm sick of going that slow now!

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I wish I was that consistant, but on my last time down most runs were under 14, which is good. My 60' times are getting better with 2.1's and 2.2's mainly.

Works Auto ran a 13.3 the other day, and he said that his MPH was higher and thought that it may have been becasue of removing his GTR rear wing. Do wings, if there not very high, cause much drag?

See'ya:burnout:

[rev210]

hard to say if they create all that much drag when that small, but generally they do.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I suppose any little advantage is worth it, I think the drag affect gets more pronounced as the speed increases, so a quicker car will get affected more.

[Guest Works Auto]

Just adding my 2 cents worth here.

On ,y 32 i decided to stick with the stock BOV until it started leaking boost. But last night ran 17psi still not leaking.

It works really well , never gives any trouble and the mixtures stay perfect. its staying for a while now

[giz01]

boo

[giz01]

i cannot gain acess to your time slip!

[rev210]

giz01,

try again mate the skylines downunder web site keeps overloading as of this post it was working fine.

[PVL-747]

40RCD ran a 13.4 @ 108mph with automatic trans, 15psi boost, avgas and toulene, timing advanced, 3 inch exhaust about 3 years ago before it got heavily modified. oh it was good fun on the streets!! wheelspun all through first into second for abit then took off. had many good race against my other mates VL turbo with the same mods.

[VISHES]

rev210: i reckon you'll break 12s if you strip your rear seats to the boot

i ran 13.4@103mph with full exhaust, airfilter (pod style no shield), bov, 1bar with EBC and stripped interior from rear seats to boot. everything else is stock including drivetrain, suspension and tyre pressure.

i believe a street car should run 'as is' without deflating tyre pressures or changing suspension setup

[Zdenko]

i ran a 14.01 with a stock as a rock r33

except pod filter and BOv

bloody BOV i could have broken 13's f i didnt have it i recon

[rev210]

VISHES,

I agree with you about 'street trim' thats why I haven't put slicks on the car. Everything else I do is 'street trim' including the tyre pressure. I drove around after the drags with 20psi in my tyres, I just don't fang it around corners.

The 12 pass is there without stripping weight, the mph is high enough if I can reduce the 60ft to 2.0 or 1.9. That would probably require some better tyres, which I can't be bothered buying till these ones wear out, after all its a work car.

[Guest <NIS_02>]

Hey Rev210,

Just curious, why u only running 10psi?? Couldnt u say run 14psi, for the strip if u wanted to??

[rev210]

I don't run higher than 10psi so my turbo doesn't go prematurely on me, it's my work car.

I could run 14psi, when I'm ready to swap the turbo to something a little bigger.
