I'm pretty sure they are around a mid-13 second car from factory. So with those mod's and abit more boost you should see into the 12's.
Pretty damn good I rekon.

so you're saying having an engine that has 25% extra capacity for no weight gain is not going to make the car quicker?

With these paticular two - no. Every engine acts differently, and for the sort of power we're talking about (for a 13 sec pass), going to 2.5 makes surprisingly little difference to anything.

When you're chasing faster times though, the extra capacity is very beneficial. But by then you're also talking about a new turbocharger, fuel system... ported head... cams etc.

Best times I've seen for an R32 GT-R, stock down the 1/4 mile in 12.8s. Averages would be low, low 13s (13.05, 13.1 etc). Full exhaust and a big cooler will see it getting consistant high 12s easily, and dipping into the mid 12s.
