Bobbeh Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 yes u are wrong, they have about 280bhp at the fly No you are. They're not all 280bhp as standard, they range from around 240- 280 depending on the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nismo_lp Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 bloody hell that's a quick car! maybe i wont play with him then Thats according to a web site 'bhp and performance' calculator .... ive tried it with some standard cars and it seems to be fairly close to the proper figures once the weight is set up correctly! Your supra must be running what.... 400bhp????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismo_lp Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 UK Manual Supra (326bhp) Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 326 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1485 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 223.05 0 - 60 (Secs) : 5.04 0 - 100 (Secs) : 11.76 60 - 100 (Secs) : 6.72 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.31 Terminal Speed (MPH) : 106.41 Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.21 Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 107.61 ....................................................................................................... Supra with (400bhp) Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 400 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1485 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 273.68 0 - 60 (Secs) : 4.34 0 - 100 (Secs) : 9.58 60 - 100 (Secs) : 5.24 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.54 Terminal Speed (MPH) : 114.40 Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.44 Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 115.69 but you would have to add about half a sec (i think) due to it being an auto Its not exact but it does show how power to weight works. The figures to the 326bhp supra is pretty much what i should be running and the 1/4 time and terminal speed are EXTREMELY close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 off the mark its going to basically come down to who is the best driver as both cars running the power they are will struggle to get the power down unless they can really drive.

Tom Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 lol probably?? if hes running 320 rwhp then hes runnin at least 400 fly, and with the weight difference hel be gone waaay in front! Like I said he will be pulling away? and the supe will be tipping 400 too but the supe has a HUGE amount more torque which is what will be needed, I dont believe the rex will be pulling away that fast.

Tom Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Heh - try another 100kg. It all works out anyway as the rx7 type r is 1270kg not 1100, but the supe is around 1500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I reckon he'd paste you from 40-100 then you'd sail past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Heh - try another 100kg. Plus the driver (in both cases) Yet another 100kg perhaps:whip: I've driven the '280bhp from the factory' RX7 and while it's nice and nimble, I doubt that it would touch a good supra over a ton.
