300kph at 300rwkw?

probably a silly question but could a 5sp man 300zx break 300kph with 300rwkw
or is more a matter of gear ratio's?

 

Yes it can, it will do it easy.

I recken even 200kw will get you there. If your crazy enough.

 

Won't hit 300kph with the standard 5 speed gear ratio's. TT auto will though.

 

I thought it was alot more to do with gear ratioes than power

 

300 kph is about 7400rpm in 5th in a 5 speed TT.

I dunno where you'd do it........

 

Bonneville salt flats prob...

 

Lol, on a serious note, is there a similar dry lake in S.A that people use for that purpos?

 

haha there will be lol

 

You may not get to 300kph in an auto because of torque converter slippage?

 

Second time I have posted this surprised there wasnt more interest.

So who wants to be the fastest Z32 in Australia ?

Hers a link to a french guy doing something that would be better tried on teh salt flats.

290+ Kmh odd dont know if its manual or auto.

alot of the zeds i have seen would be lucky to do over 200 without rattling into a million pieces ,be sure to let us know where you try,spare parts galore lmaooooooo

 

well atm my project plan is;
300kph
300rwkw
300zx
so i may have to suss out some different gears

 

Yeah, driveshaft vibrations that are a slightl niggle at a hundred are downright intrusive at 200! Can't see out of the rearvision mirror as it appears to hit it's natural frequency

If you've got a built and balanced engine you can rev high enough to get there.

 

well ive hit 6500rpm in 5th before having to back off due to traffic up ahead.. felt like it could have gone to 7200 quite easily, wasnt slow either.. moving quite steadily

 

Thought I remembered an article of the first bits of tuning played with was removing the speed limiter and on a testing ground, a stock TTZ hit very close to 300KPH.

 

i hit 190 a while ago in a small race (i wont say where) with an older model supra and a blue rx8, car felt fine to me, may have been the fact that my brain was pumping so much dopamine into me that things felt slower but at that point all i wanted was to go faster

 

190 down, 110 to go

 

From memory it was 268kph. Wheels magazine did it here in Australia using a stock TT manual.

 

Diff: 3.692
5th Gear: 0.752
Using 245/45/16

185 mph = 297.7 kmh @ 7k rpm
190 mph = 305.5 kmh @ 7.2k rpm

It'll get there.
