Re: Hp rating of my V8 Nissan

[maldat]

Well I'm all F*&ked up now?.   Its heaps faster than a  dunny  I'll tell ya that,,But they have me in first gear off the mark but only by 1/2 car lengh,then as soon as I hit 2nd they are 3 car lenghs behind and the rest is pure history,, They never want to play again.   I think it goes very well for the money I paid,,with cruise control on and coming into hills the car dont slow down at all the feeling is like taking off in a plane sort of thing everyone in the car knows it.   Towing a car transporter with dans R32 on the back at 170Kph forgot it was their.   Just shows Ya dont belive what you read in books and on the net,,Find out for your self.(and even factory Nissan books,as now showen).   Would having the speedo cut out at 185Kph and not even being able to get 5000Rpm in 4th,let alone No way to dyno in 1:1 ratio because of speedo cut out having any means to this BHP reading today? They said it does 80Kph in first gear at 6000Rpm,, I find the engine cuts out at 7500.   100Kph is about 2000Rpm,160Kph is about 3000Rpm in top crusing.speedo cut out happens just as I change into 4th cog,still has overdrive and torque lock to go. They said we used 2nd because thats 50% of 1:1... But it might not be?.which would mean the BHP reading would be more..   Malcolm     ----- Original Message ----- From: E Smith To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 7:28 PM Subject: RE: Hp rating of my V8 Nissan Malcolm, The plates should be more like "SADSAK" with those figures - he he he he . 176 hp - that's only 131 KW's at the wheels.   My 2 litre sunny has 87.2 KW (117 hp) at the wheels with a real mild street cam. The Nissan eight should be much better than that : ) The real measure is not the KW's though but the torque!!!! These figures are magic !!! Its obvious the engine is a low speed grunter and still holds onto the torque up high.   Cheers, Feral Errol Get Serious  http://www.datrats.com.au/ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of maldat Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 4:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Hp rating of my V8 Nissan Hello , a while ago I said the V8 was rated at 270Kw and some of the ozzie people said no its not its 210ps,   well Dyno tune today  $350 quid later and I supplyed the new plugs, Being auto with ABS and 185Kph cut out dyno tune was done in 2nd gear   2000Rpm= 1080lb/ft torque =48BHP 4000Rpm= 880lb/ft torque= 128BHP 6000Rpm=780lb/ft torque= 176BHP   Red line starts a 7000Rpm  they didnt see a need to go to 7000  but the guy said it will be just over 200BHP at the rear wheels at 7000Rpm in 2nd gear..   So its 200Bhp at the wheels   Isnt 200Bhp a lot more than 270Kw?.   Malcolm "OZETA"  WOULD BE A GOOD PERSONAL PLATE FOR MY CAR. --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
