So the new CS400 has a time of 3.7 seconds. Lets have your car spec and times???

think this is just basic. gear ratios can change it all

 

recorded under 3seconds 0 to 62mph (I need time to go through all data logs from the ecu to be exact as I was looking at 0 to 60 times) .. Classic, stripped and caged, 2.35litre, GT35R turbo, last time on a dyno 604bhp.

It maybe stripped Simon but all the cans of coke weigh it down to newage size

 

it gets used as a daily drive every other week so has to suffer my coke habbit

Was 1216kgs iirc with 3/4tank of fuel with cage and before some stuff has been stripped out but new tyres may have evened out the weight removal being a lot wider so probably around 1215kgs

Well if all goes to plan that calculator thing comes out with (650 is what I'm hoping for once my build is finnished but this is the real world so will prob be a little less)

The main question for me is How much quicker will it be round the likes of Knockhill rather than how fast it will be up the strip

Just done my online calculations

Will be interesting to see what it will do once i get a chance to take it to the pod, be good to know how accurate the above figures are?

According to my G-Tech meter, the quickest 0-60 I recorded was 3.8s. That was when I had my twin plate fitted and sidestepped the clutch at 7000rpm. Normally it records about a 4.5s 0-60 and a 12.8 - 13.2 SQM with terminals of 108-111mph

your 55 plate STi weighs a helluva lot more than 1250KG, closer to 1500 I think.

 

LOL, Was just guessing..........

It's all well and good using calculations. However, on "the day" i.e at a quarter mile event, i find some cars perform far worse than they should and some better.
Down to ambient temps, driver reaction, gear ratios of different boxes, and of course the vital gear shift ability, which most people who don't drag alot seem to fluff.
Went to gti international on the weekend, and nearly 30% of people doing the quarter mile, pants'd their shifts!

 

Thats about right. best we could do with a bog standard STi was 12.97 @ 99mph. That was with NO mechanical sympathy at all.

 

You're right. Everyone thinks "how hard can it be", but it is actually easier to get a better time in a car with less power. i found i easier in my car with 400hp, than in my car with over 600hp. terminal speeds will give you a rough idea of the horsepower in your car as these tend to remain fairly consistant. getting a consiatant et for yor drag run is much harder. and when you are chasing 1/100s of a second a fluffed gear change (0.25 seconds) can mean the difference in a good time and a great time.

 

Blinding result you got there Bigsinky! Bet the car doesn't like you anymore
My best mate took his skyline r33 to gti, and the best he could muster was 12.49. Thats with 420bhp at the hubs!
Then again he only has a single plate clutch so he wasn't launching it! The big poo poker.

 

that was at jurby airfield in IOM. no matter how hard we tried we could never break the 100mph terminal speed. short shifted, launched in 2nd, rode the clutch. now the car smelled some what after ward and a new clutch was put in a couple of weeks later but hey we all enjoyed ourselves.

i dont know what skyline boxes are like but if they are anything like the classic 5 speed boxes, 420/420 will destroy a box in short order, so i can see why he launched it like my granny would. its ok if these cars are being trailered to events, but when a squad of us come from belfast, we get the boat over to scotland, drive down to york or santapod, drag race all day, pack up at then end of the day and drive home again, so we need our cars to work or we dont get home simple as.

 

Apparently the boxes are good for about 600 on the gtr's. It's the exact same issue he had as you do. The car got him to the event, it needs to get him home too!!!
Was funny, being a vw show we went to, everyone was shouting "JAP SCRAP" at us. They weren't laughing once he did his 12.49 though!

 

Not wanting to sound like a geek or condesending here, but with movies like "fast and furious" the "10 second car" is bandied about if it is something normal. people dont realise the time, effort and money that goes into these cars. if they only knew what it takes to get to the 10 second barrier. they think that this is the norm when in fact you look at the back of Evo magazine and see how many cars can do a standing 1/4 in under 11 seconds. 2 or 3 maybe. price of those car >£150,000. so i can well imagine the shouts of "jap scrap" and i would loved to have seen thier faces when he pulls of a 12 second 1/4. fairly shut them up i bet. did he make fastest car that day by any chance?

 

my best at TOTB a few years back 11 seconds at 135mph. using the calculator works out at roughly 600 bhp. the 50Kg deficit is because the car has been stripped. it might be more but it gives you all an idea.

Jim you got the graphs up on the MLR with the 35?

Banny

 

Unfortunately not mate.
There was some serious metal there, one vw had two 1.8 turbo engines and was pulling sub 3 second 0-60 and quartering just over ten. But these cars have had probably the best part of £100,000 spent like you said.
Though the 12.49 was a very impressive time, and was the fastest time from a jap car that day.
Not bad from a car that cost 10k to buy (second hand and already toyed with obviously)
and a further 2k to mod to it's current power/spec.

How much does a V5 Type R weigh? 1350KG?

 

JDM STi Blob with just a map and exhaust. 0-60 in 4.1, 1/4 mile in 12.8@107. 330ish bhp.
Ran with a degree of mechanical sypathy, so possibly could of gone a little faster.
