160 is highest he and any Skyline in the UK has managed.

178mph is only 4mph down from the HKS mid-7second record holder car.

Even 170mph is the speeds the GTRs doing low 8s get, infact only 3 GTRs in the world have ever gone over 170 on the quarter IIRC, the HKS R33, the Veilside R32, and the Avance R32.

Did you know a new FWD drag record was just set?

11.3 Seconds @ 128 MPH

Fastest Supercharged EP3 in the UK 12.8 @ 109 MPH

This is an outstanding achivement for CPL and the FWD catagory
