Its the atmospheric drag generated by your car's body shape.
An streamlined car body with a low CD would measure in the high 2's. A 120Y coupe would be around 3.2 at a guess, a sedan may be .2 higher again.

this isn't a datsun specific question but can anyone tell me what "Coefficient of Drag" means??
 
I've used desktop dyno to build a virtual version of my engine I'm about to put into my 120Y and then I've imported that information into a 1/4 mile simulator to see how much difference there is gunna be between the new one and the original
I've got all the info in and finished except for coefficient of drag
I have no idea what it means
 
thanks in advance
Dave
