Just trolling on YouTube and found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W4Fq0kAXqI

But 90.40mph Trap - ummmm

Grippy · 19-09-2014, 01:40 PM

That's a bloody quick time. Any info on the mods?

ebv8 · 19-09-2014, 02:13 PM

the dredded speed limiter!, my old EB 5.0l Turbo did a flat 14 @ 94mph, i hit 94mph in about 7 to 8 secs then held that over the line.
that was with the stock ECU, i didn't have the funds to get it tuned and was before J3 chips

90 mph isn't speed limiter. Speed limiter is at 180kmh in a AU which is 111mph.

ebv8 · 19-09-2014, 02:21 PM

oh but with 3.89 diff ratio it is
sorry forgot to add that point

Different models have different limits, not sure what the XR limit is but it's over 220 kph .

Question is that is it possible to do that time with such a low mph?

I do not know any details of the car and was trying to work out if it was gutted?

I ll take a guess and say he hit the nos half way down the track.that mileage is only good enough for high 14s.

I haven't tested the limits of my XR's but my AU2 XR8 ute was limited to 180 as i found out on the track (SMP) and google told me my AU1 XR8 sedan was limited to 180km but I never found out thats too fast to test in reality.
200-220kw AU's prob had higher

as previously said my EB 5.0 turbo did a 14.1 @ 94mph but it had traction issues too, so sticky tyres and some experience a high 13 @ 9?mph would be achievable.

I think utes had 180 speed limit cause of the 2 piece tail shaft. My T1 TE50 done 229 on the gps.

sounds feasible mate, the XR6 sedans probably the 8`s too have the alloy one piece tailshaft.

To add 2 cents, TL50s are speed-limited to 180 km/h as well.

Road Games · 22-09-2014, 03:46 PM

Lol.... Nitrous off the line and then empty bottle after half track... The time slip will tell the story... The member is on here...

That is surprising Dauphin, is the TL50 longer wheel base ?

Dauphin · 23-09-2014, 07:24 PM

Yes, long wheelbase model, based on the Fairlane. I had the 180 km/h limit shown to me firsthand!

My au2 xr8 ute was limited to 180, I never found the limit on my au1 xr6 but it was doing about 250 next to a mates clubsport. As did my ebxr8 and all 3 of these cars had single piece alloy shafts.
