SILNCR = 11.07.

I know for a fact that it was a WOF, rego etc. etc.

SILNCR is a great car i hope to see it back on the track again.

I think i saw it at Speed Source 3 4 months ago must be in the 10s now.

And theres a yellow 2door wrx thats done a 10.8 from puke don't know the plate tho.

+1

There was a mention in NZPC about 3-4 months back now (I think the one introducing Falgs in whatever capacity he has there now) had a small write up that said theres 3 Street legal WRX (or STI) Running in the tens in NZ now.

It was just a small write up but mentioned the Yellow WRX, and SRKMR or whatever the plate is on the above Youotube White one.

Might be worth flicking NZPC a email, they would probably have a list somewhere, there often more useful as a database than an actual readable magazine...

Also didnt speed source have a late model STI Doing tens??

Yeah they had a v8 Spec C, but you can't really count that car now as the engine from the car at that time, is now sitting in some race car somewhere. Had like 350kw or something stupid like that, with NAWS

R8TD R has a factory motor.

but my RA has 330kw on 98oct and 365kw on nos at 23psi but now we pulled the motor apart to drop compression ratio and a couple other things want to go over the 400kw hope to get it there.

nice

u should have a go at meremere with that much power u should be in the low 11s if not a hi 10 depends on traction

[marc]

why couldnt you get 365 do a ten? i know of 2 cars making similar numbers both in the 10s 10.8s at that too. and as you said 311 did a 10.9 in a heavy v7 compared to a v2/3 RA..

[DacerX]

Natural tallent?

[R8TD_R]

i was getting close but this was the first day ive raced it we were trying to get the traction right but there just wasn't enough runs to tune my tire pressure with launch rpm to get my 60 foot right plus i was having problems with the nitrous filter every run was getting blocked (looked like bits of thread tape were in the line) hopefully will get the 10 soon maybe on the 8/01/11 at drag masters, fingers crossed

Aparently this is a 10 second car! and nz's fastest legacy gt ;D http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Subaru/gt/auction-363799741.htm

[R8TD_R]

this mite be a 10s car but down a 1/8 mile only. no freaking way that thing would even be close to it, not even if it was being towed by a 10s car :D

230kw and 900nm of torque atw on 18psi and standard injectors (i have dyno sheets, currently the fastest road legal gt subaru in NZ) she had a couple of things holding her back such as seized rear breaks which i have since fixed and should be making 270-2780kw

loool i want 2780 kw man !!! but yellows could never get 270kw

[R8TD_R]

me 2 bro :D :D

some people would say anything to sell a car.

[WRXONP]

so many people on trademe say stuff that make u just go ... are you for real?? only some suckers gonna beleave that crap haha

[Guest vf20/21bg5]

But hold on! he is the the Managing Director and co-owner of Turbo Performance NZ and all mods have been done to the highest standard tho!

[R8TD_R]

how much torque did yours put out brad? should be close to 900nm, my mates pink 1 i know that put out 800 or 850 something like that.

[Guest]

i think he got like 1000nm of tourq.mine only ran 7psi and i stil managed to get 890 something nm of tourq.some cars make alot of power but have bugger all touqe ah.

A high powered car with a low peak torque just means it either has a stratospheric rev limit, or what little torque it makes is at the top of the rev range. Simple stuff.

[GC8E2DD]

Lower gearing?
