1/4 Mile calculator and trap speed, very cool

[drifty325i]

Check these sites out, very interesting indeed and i feel they are quite accurate with there findings if you type in the correct info ie your excate weight and flywheel horsepower, obviously the true figures my diviate a little but i think this is pretty spot on

ITS ONLY ACURATE IF YOU USE THE CORRECT FIGURES NO GUESSES OK

This is my car:

DRIFTYS E30 V8

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 340
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1250 that's including subs,spare wheel interior,1/4 gas etc
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 276.37
0 - 60 (Secs) : 4.31
0 - 100 (Secs) : 9.96
60 - 100 (Secs) : 5.65
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.57
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 112.35
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 12.47
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 113.64

STANDARD NEW E30 325I

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 170 When new, less with age
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1200 Factory straight out of the box
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 143.94
0 - 60 (Secs) : 7.31
0 - 100 (Secs) : 20.60
60 - 100 (Secs) : 13.30
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 15.74 I think this is pretty much spot on for a healthy standard 325i
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 87.39
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 15.64
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 88.40

STANDARD 3.0 EURO E36 M3

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 286 When new
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1510
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 192.44
0 - 60 (Secs) : 5.68
0 - 100 (Secs) : 13.79
60 - 100 (Secs) : 8.12
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.99
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 100.71
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.89
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 101.84

Here is the like guys enjoy

Post up your figures guys! And remember no guesses lol

POSSIBLE STICKY????

Sheesh 10.78 @ 142 mph... Discounts traction....
Best I can do with manual trans is 12.2.. 128 mph....

They look pretty close for me given traction issues

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 650Weight without Driver (KG) : 1380Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 478.580 - 60 (Secs) : 3.290 - 100 (Secs) : 6.3760 - 100 (Secs) : 3.08Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.24Terminal Speed (MPH) : 133.36Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.14Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 134.85


A bit too simplistic as gearing plays nearly as much a role as weight and hp....a nice toy but better models around.

so what should a us spec sc400 motor make with header back exhaust, filter, and only an alt as accessories?

If anyone is really interested in this kinda stuff, you need this software:

Dude, your old school Beemer with the 1uz..is faster then a new M5 BMW...It's amazing what an engine swap will do for a car.. If you can somehow find a way to boost that 1uz-fe of yours you would have a down right scary car to drive... As it stands your Beemer is fast and your N/A too...

Congrats...

The calculation seems very reasonable. I boost my SC400 at 6 psi. On the average 6 psi, the other SCs make an average of additional of 80 rwhp. This equals to around 100 bhp without drivetrain loss. Therefore, I assume my car is around 350 bhp. The fact is at dead stops, I smoked several 300 hp range cars that have from 5.5 - 5.9 sec for 0-60 mph and 13.5 - 14 sec for 1/4 mile. These numbers are rated by the factory. The sheet shows what I input for my car below.

Sons turbo car has run 11.02 / 122mph 430 h.p / 1520 kg
With auto... Same body as mine, 6 cyl and auto.. My car appsolutely kills his on the street...Auto and turbo cars are definitely quicker when it comes to consistant 1/4 times...
