I'm curious to know what ET to expect from my standard JDM STi RA over the quarter mile once up and running? and 0-60.

Anyone here been on the strip?
If so please post your model etc and ET (1/4 mile time).

fanx muchly

 

A standard RA I would expect to get in the 13's with a 0-60 somewhere in the very high 4's to low 5's.

My modded Spec C has done the 1/4 in 12.5s and 0-60 in 3.85's.

Many more have done this kind of testing, so I am sure will comment as well.

 

I would hope it would get in the 13's, my mildly modded bug WRX did 14.1

 

Yep and my mildly modded sti (bug) did 12.4 1/4 mile .

 

I have run a 12.33 @112.7 mph, my car is around the 390 bhp, mark, and weighs 1480 kg, your car is around that bhp, but considerably lighter, did you get the 3.85 to 60 mph, or someone else, that is a very good time, i did a 0-60 mph, with another guy in weighing around 16 stone and managed 4.1 in the wet,

 

I managed a 13.0 in my STi type R despite missing a gear

 

Don't understand most of the stuff on it, but here's a pic of my slip from the JapShow finale at Santa Pod:


It was my first ever drag race so I'm happy with it I think I need to learn how to launch though, instead of getting quicker I got slower

IIRC PuffTheMagicWagon was slower on the day in his RA

MY94WRX btw

Micky

 

12.5 in the wet @ shootout last year . 376bhp type r. This year should be a different story if all is well

 

Ive done 13.09@104mph in my newage sti with tsl's 333 pack on it and managed a 13.29@107mph in my M3 E46

 

Been on the drag strip a few times when I had my 04 WRX and did a few runs from standard to modified

Standard 2004 WRX(backbox only) 13.9

Then did a few mods to her and she was rolling roaded at 308bhp 298lb/ft and managed a 13.2@106

Those times where on standard clutch and crap tyres!

 

12.9. Bog standard version 5 Type R.

12.0 after throwing a few mods on it.

 

13.1 @107 In a mildly modded 97Uk, **** 60ft time of 2.2 too!

gota sort that launch out

 

its worth adding the weather conditions of the run on. Hot = slower

 

managed a 12.6 in my STI3 RA running circa 350bhp

I'm a crap driver and didn't launch too hard so reckon it could do a low 12

Previous best was a 13.6 in my bugeye wrx running around 300bhp

 

I went in jan 06, waste of time, pod is very slippy, worse than the road if under a certain temp, best if temp is between 15-20 oC,

 

I think you two have different ideas of 'mildly' to one another

 

<--Mine must be more or less standard then

I haven't seen a standard STi RA run but with a exhaust and boost controller should be able to make 12.5s and 0-60mph in very low 4s.

 

wow thankyou everyone! TBH everyones cars are quicker than I expected! well done! cant wait to get on the road and strip now

 

not done 1/4 mile yet, gonna av ago at nxt years ultimate street car at santa pod, its in august i think. cant wait, this yrs was awsome.

 

2.Oltr stock legacy turbo ,in a vwbeetle 0-60 3.38seconds

but you will have me on the twisties (i`ll say it before someone else does)

but next yr i have another 200bhp
only 160 @ the wheels for that ticket

 

3.85s 0 to 60 was someone else but in my car, during some testing at Bruntingthorpe. Personally I have managed a 4.1s, but that was in damp conditions on road type tarmac.

IMHO my car is certainly capable of a lower 1/4 time, as time behind the wheel saw (in relative terms) the 1/4's get better. At Avon Park in cold conditions (i.e. the worst traction I have ever had in 1st and on cold 888's road legal circuit track tyres) I acheived a 12.6...... getting everything poised for 1/4m under the right conditions, should see a drop from the current best of 12.55 (which was done in the height of the summer at TOTB, when it was the first time dragging for 5yrs).

I like the 1/4m, but my car is really setup for track driving.

 

I agree with the right start in good conditions should see your car get a low 12, how did the other person get the better times to 60 mph, faster gear change etc...

 

Evo North,

For some reason on the day of testing, I just couldnt get the launch right (it kept bogging down).... it was one of those things (I seem to remember the best I could get that day was a 0-60 of about 4.2). Strange thing was, was every time it has mattered (like in front of people at TOTB and Avon Park) I was fine! For drag run's at the strips I normally manage a 60ft of 1.6s.

Congrates on getting a 12.33 with a weight of 1480kg and 390bhp!

 

Thanks alot mate, i am running standard internals, and bb standard turbo, carbon prop, autronic ecu, at 1.64 peak boost, my best is a 1.85 60 ft, which i will try and beat this year, your 1.6 60 ft is very impressive, well done ,mate,
