thanks
 
i take it imports are quicker

The figures I put above are for a standard import. I think the UK spec FD\'s were about 230atf so a little lower than the imports.

My not boosting correctly 1994 Type R2 dynoed at 215rwhp which is about 255bhp. It\'s an import 0-60 time is around 5.3s I think.

Its the weight more than anything helps the Jap cars get of the Mark Quicker i know the UK cars are about low to mid 1300kg\'s and the Jap R1/R2 is around the 1250kg it all makes a diffrence if you have a slight power advantage too.

Post 96, 16 bit FDs are 265bhp atf on Jap fuel up from the earlier 8 bit cars that were 255bhp.  The 16 bit cars also get an extra 10lb/ft torque

Then post 98 are 276+ I\'m sure someone will confirm, maybe 280bhp atf
