This is one bad-ass FD!!!! Rotaries can definately put HP to wheels.

I Love That Car!!!!

[s13dr1fter]

damn that car was hella fast. How fast was that in mph?

[monooxide]

If that 650RWHP RX-7 can hook it up and go think about the 800RWHP S15 beside it

[logik23]

It's like 160mph.

[monooxide]

really speed means nothing in relation to how high the number is....I mean I dont want a car with a top speed of 200MPH... when i could have a car that would get to 60-160MPH in like 4-6 seconds....

[nissanfanatic]

I think I would take the FD over the silvia in this case. I'd just need to start learning about rotaries.haha

KPH-MPH conversion: http://www.aer-net.co.uk/edr/kph.htm

So 240kph I believe was his top speed. I can't remember as I watched the vid like 5 hours ago at work. Dial up here.

240kph*0.621=149mph
And he started at like 100kph? So he actually started at 62mph. Id say you found yourself a car monoxide. And it was a nine second car on street tires!!!!!!!!!!

The US really needs to just start using metric measurements and stop being different just to be independent.

[monooxide]

Actaully in the 70s the US stated they would change over to metric but never have...

[logik23]

And it was 260kmh, so that means 161mph, BOO YAH I'M GOOD!!!!

[SHIFT_KA24DE]

seriously... US should've switched to metric... i'm pretty fuked taking engineering courses here... if i try working in Japan.. i'll have to switch everything. lolz...

btw... the FD kicks ass... i simply love higher rpm range... no nissan can rev that far... (off the factory line that is)

[Scope240]

lol nice it is a sweet car, with a nice top speed, but just out of curiosity, what is the top speed of the 240 ka or sr engine.

[Hit_N_Run-player]

we dont know because the speed limiter cuts out on the KA at i think 117mph?? But you could probably take out the govener and use GPS to track the top speed...

[Scope240]

ya i know, thanks for the info, just wondering, cuz i mean the 240 are damn stable at high speeds.

[nissanfanatic]

With some suspension stuff they are. Stock, mine gets floaty at anything past 110mph.

[Scope240]

ya too mine to about that, and it felt solid, real solid, like i felt i was only going 80, but then again i looked at my surrounds and couldnt make them out.
