icecold:
ya going back on the thing about the octane and stuff for gas. here on the west coast(namely cali) we have 87 89 and 91 but we also have racing fuel here that is rated at 103 or 104 i forrgot which but only SOME gas stations carry it.
and ya also about the c33 laurel i understand taht its all about the driver its just for a 4 door car that is pretty heavy drifting like any silvia or skyline is just amazing.

lifesaver:
dunno if i am allowed to talk about other fansub releases or not, but nanashi has started on episode 5, they do FMA pretty fast, so i would expect IDep5 to come out soon.

--- Quote ---the car has an 11k redline and that  it pulls out 240 bhp but the thing that i want to know is how much torque that badboy is pulling out.

--- End quote ---


At 240bhp, at 11000 RPM, Torque can be calculated by the formula T=(30xWatts)/(RPMxPi) - 1Hp = 750W.

240BHP ~ 180000 Watts.

So, that's about 157Nm.

That's not a lot, but if you can get the engine revving that high, you can do other stuff like reduce the diff ratio to get more torque at the wheels.

Remember that normally aspirated also... So don't compare it to a turbo vehicle torque at much lower RPM

xyz.

p.s. I came to this forum to see when the next release of the fansub might be... I was hoping someone may have posted the expected release of Ep 5 & 6. :( I guess I'm not going to find out.  Still, I'll take a moment to thank LE for the great job they are doing :)

GilliamII:
*sigh*

I'm getting this feeling that by the time L-E has 5 & 6 for us people in Japan will be watching 7 & 8.  I think I read somewhere back in these many many pages that they were waiting for people to do "what they promised to do" or something of that nature.  I don't so much care what or why it is, but I do wish that they would at least fill us in on what all is happening with the delay.  I haven't read all 247 previous posts so if it has been said earlier somewhere feel free to point me in the right direction.

Delays I can handle.  I am a patient person but I'd really love some communication from the L-E team on what is happening.

hippopotomoose:
chassis and numbers and letters.
R32, R33, R34.  R35?  G35.  

whats the link between the R- thirty series and the G35 that everyone and their baby's babies seem to own round here?

PS.  This forum is bout initial d and the cars being talked about are considered drift cars so we're not off topic.
