jevansio Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 very interested in seeing the results of this Good luck lads whats the highest mph a supra, in theory can make? See the gear spreadsheet Homer did, depends on which gearbox, diff, rpm limit & tyre size V160, JSpec Diff, 7200rpm stock rolling radius is a smidge over 200mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project Blitz Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I didnt know they were 200mph as near standard! that's cool. maybe next year i'll get in on the action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLicense Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I didnt know they were 200mph as near standard! that's cool. maybe next year i'll get in on the action They weren't / aren't. The spreadsheet just tells you what speed you would be doing if you could achieve a particular RPM in a particular gear. You'd still need the ooomph from the engine to get you up to those revs, and the stock Supra hasn't got it unfotunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest craigvmax Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 thought I might surprise you popping up here Lads I'm more than happy to have a couple of Supra's along, vmax has never been solely about the hypercars or excluding anyone at all. Sounds like you have some pretty heavy duty metal here too. That said, Bruntingthorpe has been under extreme pressure with noise so any pi$$ taking will simply mean you'll be stopped from running which could prove an expensive day out for you. I have to be strict sadly as any excess noise jeopardises the fun for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefgroover Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) I'd have a go at this, but when is it? Craig I'd be bringing this car.....http://www.bigsupra.co.uk/e_skillen.html Can fit my parrellel random techrace cats to make it even quieter, it's quieter as it is beside a lot of euro performance cars. Do you measure the exhaust before or during the event, as I am thinking most cars get louder when roasting hot?. I would like to be the quietest car over 200mph. (UK diff and 8.5K rev limit). Edited January 11, 2010 by Chiefgroover Just woke up and got thinking (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefgroover Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 How many members would pass the noise test here? I get the feeling very few? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 How many members would pass the noise test here? I get the feeling very few? Yeah, most of the high power motors will be running turbo kits with screamer pipes. Even re-circulating the wastegate and running one of the quieter exhausts available (rated at 91-92Db on stock Supra with cats fitted) it would probably still be marginal.

Chiefgroover Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Cant see how so many of the cars on the web site pass, 911 are not quiet, monaros either, RS4 and especially RS6 are very noisey. What we really need to know is this At what distance is this measured and at what angle and what speed or RPM etc? whats the criteria?

Chiefgroover Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 "Our noise limits are 98dba static test at ¾ max revs ½ m & 45 degrees from the exhaust and 87.5 dba track side drive by. " I can do that i think, Will check with a meter some time soon. Thanks Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 I wont pass that, Sorry i didnt reply to your email craig but not much point, im all booked up for thunder road though so looking forward to that now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel lane Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 unfortunately i dont think i can achive the max flyby noise limit with a open wastegate, even with a re-circ, unless anyone else has a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
