** drag zilvians chime in**

[[email protected]]

Ok first off I dont want to have anyt grip/drift is better etc non-sense

This is for our fellian Nissan'ians to share suspension set ups , engine set ups etc.

NO how fast is my car questions..

In my case i am currently doing a DD S14 that i plan on laying down solid 11's in full street trim.
right now its a S14 SR on 15psi
Walbro 255
FMIC
coming soon is a To4E with plans on around 20psi on the street/strip...

my drag/street car being built is a 72 Datsun 1200, already fitted with 8 point cage woth reworked tubs. working on rear diff right now.

again no drift/grip this is for the drag people to come in and enjoy.

[thisisastickup]

what's the point of this thread?

[bigOdom1]

i dont drift. i do like autox/road course and drag racing but this thread is pointless.

[[email protected]]

Like I said it Is to share motor set ups suspension set ups launch techniques doe fellow zilvians
There is little to no drag info here and not eveyone is on the drift wagon

[steve shadows]

Can we ban all thread that read the following?

1 How Fast is my car?
2 How much power is my car?
3.How much is this worth?
4.How much drift is this?
5.How much smoke will this setup make?
6.How much death will I inflict when I lose control of this sh*tbox and kill people trying to be F&F3/4/5/&6

etc...

And from a Drag guy...you should know, it's all up to your left foot and your right hand. (if you're in the US) go runt he bish, then come here for feedback not the other way around.

People ALWAYS ask me, "how much power will this setup make?"

Well it will make "500 hp if it was built by hand by HKS in Japan in a vacuum"

But built by you snorting blow all weekend, not sleeping, cutting your hands up and using 20 year old hand me down tools and using Air Cond Ducting for an intake and PVC piping for IC pipes? It will make ??????, I wont know until I get the rollers going.

Same line of thinking....

[David B S12]

you are an example of why i dislike drag racers... thanks

[[email protected]]

Drifting isnt the only thing our cars can do , HP isnt everything, suspension tuning and driving skill is key to getting the most out of a car be it high power or low power.

so those who want to say this is pointless, well your post is pointless in the purpose of this thread!

[VQMaxFan]

Mebey you should make a better thread about how to achive better 60' posting your suspension setup, what cluch you are using and hell mebey even some high stalled auto goodness.

Mebey you should make a better thread about how to achive better 60' posting your suspension setup, what cluch you are using and hell mebey even some high stalled auto goodness.

i would supply such things if i had them to offer but since my drag car isnt completed yet i can no offer things i have not tested yet.
i can give insight on toyotas but this is not a toyota site.

if you want some info then here goes

72 Datsun 1200
C18DET
To4E
Microtec Stand alone ECU
Toyota mini van narrow diff with 4:30 gears
relocated leaf spring perches
Comp engineering rear shocks
Aerospace componets front drag brake set up
weight of car with driver will be about 1800-2000 lbs.

as inprovements are made to my 240 i will supply vid and feedback.
this is for others to give feedback feed back for people to take in for their cars

[bigOdom1]

for drag racing purposes: stock springs or hks drag coils. the majority of other coilover systems are just too stiff and do nothing more than wheelhop or blow the tires off.

dont mess around on street tires. get some drag radials at least and stop ruining the track for everyone else who has drag radials and slicks

as far as motors go, its all personal preference/budget.

as far as launching goes that all depends on your motor, your suspension, your tires etc.

there are too many variables

[Este510]

I guess this tread is off to a bad start with some much negative people.

dd S13, Tein flex coilovers, sr stock bottom end w/2876r turbo, 22psi on methanol water injection, MT tires, running low to mid 11's.

[[email protected]]

good #'s
any pics
where did you make the runs at?

between some friends we have some serious 240's coming out this year here in socal to put down some good times

[s13dan]

im not a big drag person but ill tell you what i have seen or experienced.
A stock suspension S13, Mostly stock redtop, with decent street tires can pull a solid 2.0 60 foot.

Most people i have seen with a Kaaz 16 plate and supension, and DR's can pull 1.8 60' pretty easy and 1.7 is very possible. Again with a mostly stock SR.

I was pulling 2.0's and running 13.70's
Simular S13 with a mostly stock SR, kaaz pulled 1.7 60' and ran 12.40's
The exact set up i dunno. But this shows what small changes can do as far as drag racing. This thread could be very useful if there was enough info shared.

Three tenths off your 60' and it will make a dramatic overall difference in 1/4 miles times.

[[email protected]]

your 60ft will make or break a race,
a guy i know has a internally stock red top in a S13 with internally gated GT30 on drag radials lay down 1.4 60ft... i do not know his suspension but i will find out.

[[email protected]]

[s13dan]

From my understanding there is some restriction because of the Indy rear suspension, with a solid axle i could see a 1.4

I doubt that guy stuck with the IRS.

[[email protected]]

sorry to tell you but that car is IRS still, seen it myself.....

[mattro]

im building mine for more drag as well.

one of my close friends races an s13 with an ls2 with drags radial. that car MOVES!!!! you can find that car on youtube search nismoknights and youll see what im talking about

we have another S13 coming out soon after it gets tuned
S13
Z32 trans

GT30 bb turbo
Peakboost manifold
880injectors
Z32 maf..
looking at about 500whp

I'm making 487hp with a built s13 sr20.
T3/t04e precision turbo

on hand me down 245/50/r16 nitto drag radials that are wore out but all I have
I have ran a best of [email protected] 121 with a horrible 1.9 60'foot time which is also my best. I just put a new stage 4 spec clutch and bee*r setup on a button as a launch control.( making just over 5psi at the line) Tried it over the weekend and did absolutely horrible with a best 60' of 2.3. Hoping it was a fluke and that I havent gotten use to the clutch yet. I'm in dire need of some new rubber, any suggestions?

i am a fan of BFG's and buddy uses the hoosier's which has gotten him 1.5 60 fts

[rbrixe1]

ur buddy running Hoosiers with the 1.5 60'. Wat drivetrain mods does he have? Diff? Tranny? Driveshaft? Springs?
also if u kno wat size they are too? Thanks.

Why not go for full out 15" slicks

[didderson]

Funny thing about that 240sx coupe pic is he's redlighting lol.
I always wondered what my setup would do in the quarter, but I never make a day to pay someone to time me at the strip. I should because people ask, but whatever.

[DrIvEsldEwAyS]

my buddy ran a 11.4 spinning with his built 35r 240. he had tein basics and 275 m/t et streets. made 477whp on 21 psi.

i now have his bottom end with different head making a little less power but havent made it to the track yet.

[fromxtor]

I would PM mazworx on here, they are pretty much the kings of drag 240s. Besides AMS of course.

[rbrixe1]

I havent went to a full on slick yet bc of fear if my stock drivetrain can take it. But im really tired of getting beat by fucking honda hatches. I got the power just need to deliver now. Any one running slicks that could offer me some sizing and brand advice. I got a s14 shell.

i am not looking for insite on drag set ups i know my way around drag racing and setting up a car, this is for people to have a thread to share info for others to read and learn on.

the hoosier were on his 510 wagon with stock SR with GT30. he has a ford 9"

[Flicktitty]

[email protected] ([email protected]) - that white coupe you posted a pic of, did you ever find out any more info on the wheel/tire/suspension combo?

right now i have a 225/50/15 BFG G-force t/a drag radial on a 15x7. but i will be getting the wheels widened to run a 275 Drag radial for this next season.

currently on a Megan street coilovers, i've seen now that megan makes new springs that might be better for drag use, anyone know of a set of HKS hypermax drag's for a s13?

[Nismoknightska-t]

sorry to tell you but that car is IRS still, seen it myself.....

and that car is slow..

the driver cant even handle the power from that little sr...

tell him he has 5 off the flashlight.. lol

i run hoosiers on my s14..

mods:
ls2 with th350 trans, i leave at 2k on the foot brake.. and pull low 1.5s 60s

stock rearend

driveshaft is custom..

Agx's and sportlines

My tires are 28-10.0-16 on a z32 TT wheel

A M/T et street is pretty much the same thing is a slick.. I have run both of them..

Its been a couple of years since lost to a little Honda.. that shit must be pissing you off hhuh..

Best slick is a hoosier slick.. something like 26-9.0-15 or 16

You will need a z32 tranny and axles to leave hard..


o btw... if you are drag racing and coming off the line hard.. unplug your air bags..

this happen to me not to long ago...

the white coupe runs hoosier also, im 90% sure.. and tein flex.. if i remember correct..

you are better off getting a et street.. that tire works perfect.. and you can drive to and from the track..

your best bet is stock springs/ struts.. or agx's and springs..

[rbrixe1]

thanks for the great info nismoknights! Looks like I'm gonna order some Hoosiers and I kno an old man with a tt z32 shell.
After that it'll be time to go Honda hunting!

[s13dan]

im pretty sure a 240s drivetrain could take slicks no prob. Just like any other car you risk breakin shit, thats part of drag racing a car that make any real power, or tourqe actually. If you are running ET's then you should be able to run a full slick.

[VQMaxFan]

+1 for M/T ET streets as the radial of choice.


currently on a Megan street coilovers, i've seen now that megan makes new springs that might be better for drag use, anyone know of a set of HKS hypermax drag's for a s13?

megan has some lowering springs that are pretty soft, seems to let the suspension squat pretty hard.

hahah you funny, if 7.2 in the 1/8th is slow then by all means you can run against us later this year :D

Wrong.. dude we broke axles on burnouts!!!

Yup.. I loved those tires..

[VQMaxFan]

do the stub shafts tend to break first or just the cv joints?

[Nismoknightska-t]

much respect , we looking at 5's this year.....

cool, when i hook up the unit.. im shooting for 6.6x.. driven to and from the track..

hmm i have seen ever part of the axles break now..

with my auto setup.. i should never break one.. well hopefully..

[kognition]

It's called time attack. :snoop: That is the only way you get the most out of everything you just mentioned.


Drifting isnt the only thing our cars can do , HP isnt everything, suspension tuning and driving skill is key to getting the most out of a car be it high power or low power.

Hey I saw you at the track a few weeks back @ irwindale. I was in the silver s13 hatch on Volk mesh, what were you running in the coupe never got a chance to watch your run?


My best time there was [email protected](t25 sr20 @ 15psi ARC SMIC) but I kind of wish there were a road track around here because I would much rather run my car on some time attacks, Drag gets boring.

[undesiredshoe]

I ran a 12.8 @ 113mph on a stock block sohc:wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggl e::wiggle::wcc:

pretty sure he went 7.3ish..

9.1 isnt that bad.. get some et streets.. gt2871r and some race gas!!
im pretty sure.. in a few months i might swap my ls2 s14 back to 6 speed again and start auto x or maybe time attack for a little while..

I ran a 12.8 @ 113mph on a stock block sohc:wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggl e::wiggle::wcc:

now thats not bad at all!! :bigok:
setup?

[VQMaxFan]

So anyone know if or anything about getting a spool for our rear ends? I remember reading on FA a guy posted saying he had a spool but it was the only one he knew of for an r200 and didnt post anymore about it.

hrm both me and my friends cars were in the mid 8's with mostly stock SR's and 9psi, do you remember what kind of 60' you were cutting?

[s13dan]

I ran a 12.8 @ 113mph on a stock block sohc:wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggle::wiggl e::wiggle::wcc:

i have heard of this. It took a bottle and some really good 60 foots if im thinking of the same car..

[Dee]

hrm both me and my friends cars were in the mid 8's with mostly stock SR's and 9psi, do you remember what kind of 60' you were cutting?

crap mid 8's?! my 60' was 2.059 on that run, I've been having this problem with wheel hop every time I go so i'm not very consistent; most of the time my 60's are 2.3 :(

[VNG704]

back in '04 in my first sr s14 se at The Rock, rockingham, NC
hot day, temps had to be in the 90s+ (my safc was falling down because the velcro adhesive was melting)
full interior
don't laugh at my setup :)
cheapo new nankang ns2 tires 225/18s full daily driver psi
s13 SR20 [email protected] with ic, air vented bov, dp back exhaust, tune safc2, intake cone, sprint springs w/tokico blue shocks/struts, open diff, ...nothing special.

60' 2.3
330 6.0
1/8 9.0 81 mph
1000 11.6
1/4 13.8 105 mph

surprised me

[undesiredshoe]

i have heard of this. It took a bottle and some really good 60 foots if im thinking of the same car..

Nope, no bottle and a bad 60'....just pure boostage and e85. I think i am the fastest stock block sohc in the world! lol....maybe not but at least from what i can find.

Heres a time slip

http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g90/undesiredshoe/SDC10147.jpg

Setup consists of turbonetics t3/t4 50 trim at 18 psi, stock block, headgasket, headstuds, cam, etc, 186k miles, a lot of ebay parts, and some drag radials.

From the traps, im probably capable of low 12's.

Hey Papi!
Remember me? LOL Didnt know Id run into you Zilvia! I just picked up an S14 :) I wont be using it for drag, but we should grab lunch sometime and you can tell me all about yours!

[lewisfk]

Well, I'm building a dual purpose 240sx, and on the weekends I do drag! So any helpful suspension ideas send It my way! If your ever at San Antonio speed way look for Dr. Dave he is the mopar guru of south Texas, and he is helping me build my 240sx!

If you have coilovers put them on full soft and they might help.. or put on some stock struts and springs and I can almost guarantee that the wheel up will stop..

Cool thread, I was waiting for Nismoknights KA-T to chime in, he's got to have one of the crazier drag car's on here.

There's a dude who came to the 626 meet a while back with a VH45/high stall auto drag car a while back, wonder where he's at.

hahah you funny, if 7.2 in the 1/8th is slow then by all means you can run against us later this year :D

That's pretty quick.

My best 60' is around 1.7, my best 1/8th mile time (Irwindale, only run 1/8th once) was 6.8 @ 110mph or so, with a 2.0 60'... and my best 1/4 mile time was in Wisconsin, ran a 10.4 @ 139mph, with a 2.0 60' and lost to the Harley in the next lane.

... all of this happened on GSXR-1000's lol.

do luck ladder bar in the rear



What rear end are you planning on running? 9"?

Also does a rear ladder bar help?

i have one sitting in my garage,still debating to put it on or not.

[[email protected]]

mine is a full jun head
GT3582R with Tial ss housing vband everything
tial V44 setup
tikico D-spec struts with espilar lowering springs
cnc aluminum solid mounts and bushings in the rear
all solid rear end with adjustable suspension
no sway in the rear
do luck ladder bar in the rear
expect to see low to mid tens on 30 psi
haltech p1000 ecu
with a low port s14 notch top

low to mid 10's can be done without the rear end work. save yourself the $ and beef up the OEM stuff.

NEVER LS's DIE , hahaha imma stay 4cyl till i die, granted i wont be able to keep up with my dad but this bad boy is running sub 10's


yea maybe.. a stock one wit "bolt ons".. . i bet your dad is running a real motor right..? let me guess.. v8? haha

I think he is meaning solid bushings..

Cause 9inch is over kill for hes little setup..

A rear ladder bar like the du luck one, wont do shit!! Sell it and use that money for tires or something else..

Very true..

If I ever blow this motor.. and build it.. I will shoot for low 9s.. with the oem rear end setup!

V8's are for curising the Blvd in his camaro. last car ran 9.60's in 1/4 6.1 in 1/8 with a Auto 1.8L 4cyl. maybe you seen it at irwindale its the cream/off white 69 corolla.

new set up is in a 83 corolla 2.4L out of the tacoma 4 banger too.
this set up is looking at mid to high 8's
all in street trim :bigok:

You are pretty much correct!
We have made a few drag specific coilovers that have spring rates condusive to drag racing.

We also revalve the coilover extensively in the rear to have a faster compression rate and a slower rebound rate. This makes a huge difference in 60 ft times :)
for drag racing purposes: stock springs or hks drag coils. the majority of other coilover systems are just too stiff and do nothing more than wheelhop or blow the tires off.

dont mess around on street tires. get some drag radials at least and stop ruining the track for everyone else who has drag radials and slicks

as far as motors go, its all personal preference/budget.

as far as launching goes that all depends on your motor, your suspension, your tires etc.

there are too many variables

Too bad we dont have a track out here...we got a 1/8 course that happens every 3 months or so.

Anyways, I just got my GT3582R installed. Going RB25 tranny next before I start flogging the car again...

no tracks but there was always the bridge in yoko on Fri nights... :coold:

[jspaeth]

Old setup

-Stock blacktop SR swap in S14, boosting T25 to 14 psi
-Kumho Ecsta MX tires 245/40/17
-Weighed in at 2920 lbs. including driver

VERY LITTLE drag experience at all, I ran:


13.53 @ 100.8 mph, with a 1.92 60' time

- I was happy with the 60' time!

New Setup

-GT2871R with supporting mods, stock motor
-Same tires, same weight
-PFC tuned to 320 whp/300 ft-lbs torque

Went to the strip like a year ago, could NOT get it to hook up at alllllll
I need to practice more, but

Ran a 13.3 @ 110 mph, but with a 2.32 60'


I am thinking that with the same launch I had on the old setup (1.9 or so 60'), this should be down near the mid 12s.....also, my clutch was slipping a little on this new setup, but I have since upgraded.

z32 tranny or auto setup?

yes i know this don't plan on running a ford 9" till i throw a GT45 on the built SR24DET besides i figured i'd beef up the rear end seeing as i have a spare subframe and all the bushings and control arms in the rear are garbage and blown. so went with solid bushings ect. not a soild axel

[SILVIA_KIDs14.5]

Yes the Ladder bar does help and was going to be running a ford 9" haven't decided on what one quite yet but got some time before i'll need that much strength. I talked to spl on a drag set up they told me get soild bushings adjustable arms and the ladder bar no sway in the back ladder bar for the front and run stock sway up front. then choose a coilover set up i had tickio d spec struts and swift springs in there already so i'll stay with that seeing as those are adjustable dampining for now i'll keep it anyway good luck

unless its a full out drag car just work with what you got, might as well back half it if you go full rear diff....

[Zen S14]

Not much to contribute here but I do bracket race my 240sx as much as my schedule allows. I hit E-town in NJ and Atco when there are import events with bracket racing. Not trying to go the fastest in the 1/4 as each second faster seems directly proportional to the speed at which my wallet shrinks.

My setup is 10psi on a stock KA with a stock auto. car is 3035lbs with me in it and 1/2 tank of gas. Car runs 13.75 in the 1/4 mi at 104mph. I only get a 2.25 60' though as the auto launches at 1800rpms. I use Nitto Drag Radials.

hope to get this thread moving soon as my car is almost done...

[SixSpeedSleuth]

Not a whole lot I can chime in here about, but I do have a few things. I have cut a 1.59 60' on KTS Coilovers on full soft in the rear, and halfway in the front. (Without the 2 step on the AEM setup, all manual launching.) So, good 60's can be had on coilovers. Also, I'm running a Z32 tranny and stock axles with slicks and I lanuch literally at redline (GT30R, SR20DET block, stock internally other than cams and a HG.), and I've never had a problem with axles breaking in prob 50 or so launches on slicks.

Slip the clutch is best and preload the drivetrain. Helps a ton to have a linelock to soften the launch

Great reading guys!
I have a question - I read often about subframe bushings, what's that all about? Do rubber bushings really kill 60ft that much?

yup u do need a 2 step

[Vetal]

yup u do need a 2 stephow does it help? :tweak:

[[email protected]]

how does it help? :tweak:

allows you to have the pedal floored but the motor will not pass its set RPM, also timing is taken away to build boost

[Vetal]

So only kind of "comfort" thing, that makes your life a bit easier?
As I said, I don't need boost off the line yet...

[turbociv910]

allows you to have the pedal floored but the motor will not pass its set RPM, also timing is taken away to build boost

2 step and anti-lag are 2 different things.

timing isn't just taken away, it is decreased into the negatives, somewhere between -5 and -10, to combust when the exhaust valve is open. Thats why you get all the fire along with anti-lag.


2 step is just a early limiter set within your ecu to shut off at a determined rpm or clutch pedal release.

[zurud]

I try to launch on stock rev limiter but it doesn't built positive boost at all. I am thinking using rev limiter as cheap way for no lift shifting. I have rush anti lag but I am afraid to use it as I heard horror stories about it.

[[email protected]]

As I said, I don't need boost off the line yet...

comfort? i thin kyou just need to go back to the basics and not worry about anti lag/ 2 steps and work on getting the most out of what you got currently. with all the things in the word if you cant drive it it isnt going to help.

[2bad240]

i hope to get my sr s14 out the drag strip soon. i ran a 8.45 in the 1/8th the day i got it with my 26" slicks off my Z on it. and since then i replaced the clutch and raised the boost from 7 to 15 and fixed a bunch of other issues so im hoping for some 11.9-12.2s. but we will see.
i got a 1.74 60' on my 26" m&h dot slicks on a xtd clutch that was in the swap when i got it.

[ditchs14]

this is my buddys 240. he ran a 11.5. 60 ft was 1.777 on slicks

one is for th efront and the other is rear so you only need to run from the front to th eline lick sileniod then from there to the brakes

Great thread!

Question for you guys is what wheel/tire (other than those of you who have posted) setup are most of you guys running?

I have a set of NA supra wheels which are 16 x 9 and I am not sure which tire to go with. I am thinking I will pick up some 26x11.5x16 for the rears and contemplating running 17" GTO spare wheels in the front with like a 17x4.5 tire.

What are you guys using as a setup in the front?

FYI, this is going into an S14 body. Q45 3.69 LSD, 300zx TT axle + Q45 axle, Z32 TT Hubs.

M&H and MT both make a 26/11.5 for a 16"
unless you are a big brake front like me then theres no need for the 17" unless you want the look. I am running the 17" alumastars with the M&H Radial 185/55. I needed a spacer to clear my Brembos.

Wow front tires lifted without 2 step? Post up pics of your line lock. I want to see your set up without using 2 solenoid for the front tires.

No line lock either, that will be done next and if using the stock master cylinder you need to use two unless you change out to a different MC

[ForeignMuscle]

What suspension setup are you using? Sorry if this was mentioned already. And as for your motor, is it still 2 liters? No bore or stroke??

Stock suspension full functional not blown and front tein tension rods
+1 camber in the rear.

Motor is a 2.0l over .20 overbore stock stroke

[s13 drifta]

I thought I would post up my S14 daily driver setup and drag results.

S14 SE with full interior and full tank of gas
S13 sr20det with stock internals, stock cams, stock intake mani, stock exhaust mani, Gt2871r .64 at 16psi
tokico d spec shocks w/ megan springs
245/50/16 Nitto 555r at 15psi

60' 1.993
1/4 12.651
MPH 113.57

That was done at 4000 ft above sea level. If I were to take it down to sea level I should hit a 12 flat or better.

I was happy with the results. I drove the car to and from the track, 220 miles round trip.

Yeah drag racing is ghey that's why you come in this thread seeking attention. Are you just coming out of closet? I know nobodyelse will, but it will be my pleasure to gape your virgin silky smooth white ass a very big one.


hehe, it looks like you crave the attencion senoreh.. :angel:


I am glad that you can agree with my statement though.. It is ghey, spending all that money on cars/parts/NOS! to just go down a quarter mile drag strip with an intent on beating your buddies 12 sec times, it is so worth it broh.

What is this about coming out of the closet? Where did that come from? lol. What is on your mind young person from the interwebs? All this talk about closets and coming out, I would come up to the conclusion that coming out of the closet is something you must fancy about up in that drag feen monkey mind of yours.

but yeah I gave in, you called me out so I reply. You should feel lucky brah, cause I don't usually reply. I was just feeling a little fancy. ;]

OH and not to litter on this thread sry,,,, my intent is to settle your wild and uneasy vibrations so if you feel to take this to a PM then the more the merrier!

NOW continue on with yourrr drag um racing talk.

[ForeignMuscle]

s13 drifta, that is an awesome time for basically a turbo and tune car in full trim.

[email protected], I now have my coilovers for sale lol. I'm suprised that factory suspension is working that well for you. I hope I can see some improvement with my factory setup reinstalled. What size rear tire are you running? Rim width and offset would be great too.

[2muchboost]

To each there own....I have setup my car for drifting and now I am looking switched directions more to daily/drag whenever I get a chance. I think most the "drifting" craze has gotten out of hand but I also think creating a show car with super stretched tires and stupid camber...etc. is useless. So I can respect your opinion BFT drag racing isnt for everyone. I personally hope to build a car that will run 10's and still have the ability to be driven home 2-3 hours after a long day of work.

If you really think about it....most of what we do is pointless. Spending $$$$ on a car and modifying it is stupid either way. At the end of the day its still just a 240sx no matter what you do to it but damn it feels good to build something that "you" as the builder has put together. I have built a few cars but no matter what you think, its a shitty investment because when you go to sell it you always lose tons of money either way.....unless your talking about old classics or some high end cars.

Just my 2 cents :)

And honestly, no one gives a shit if you like drag racing or not, tool! Go back to trolling in the closet...

Lol You must have misunderstood me. I just want a picture of the car, with wheels on it. I want to see how high it sits with factory suspension.

here you go, i want to bring the front down a little since it sits more then i want in front due to the 17" front runners

thanx, working on it this weekend to put in the R32 diff after i weld it with J30 axles. welding up bungs on the VC to help with venting.
also hooking up the line lock
6.90's no way ill burn it if it does that after the line lock and 2 step are set up. Im looking at 6-40-6.50's in the 1/8th

I want more info on your engine. (internals, head etc.) You can pm if its confidential. Just the main building blocks of your setup would be nice. I would like to follow a very similar build with my car. You don't see enough high power sr's and I know the engines can make the power fairly simply.

Im new to the forum but not to the car scene I have a s13 with a 2jz 35r in the process of rewiring the car. And I decided to read this thread. I have 26x11.5x16 mt slicks and there's no way that tire will clear stock suspension is there any other alternative options and do you think a j30 diff will handle it

whats it measure out to?> i have see 28/10.5 on S13's without wide body
the J30's are small so they will hold a little but a Q45/z32 is the way to go which i will do later

[2js1392]

Well right now I have Megan's. And I will need spacers because it's right up on them with the 26x11.5x16 so without 40mm spacers or something I don't think it's possible and even if it would be the tire would be sticking out the quarter a rediculious amount

[ForeignMuscle]

I've seen 275's which are around 11 inches and they poke out of the fender. it's not happening without over fenders. Just not enough room. Anyways, welcome to the forum! Post some pics of your ride in the gallery.

Btw, my info wasn't completely truthful. You can always go to town with a fender roller.

Yes I took thT at the tx2k12 event in march. It has a 2jz running low 8's on the oem rear q45 diff etc

[2js1392]

Nice so the q45 is we're it's at. Have to invest and find these parts. Thanks [email protected] big help

[[email protected]]

No problem. Nice I start breaking the hell out the rear ends I'll make the switch to a solid axle

[2muchboost]

q45 Diff with Z32 TT axle + q45 axle is the way to go for sure if your looking to make serious power unless you like snapping axles.

[ForeignMuscle]

Driveshaft shop if shit gets too serious.

Those dss axles are too much I can build a solid axle set up for less

Yes, did you want more pictures of the wheel fitment?

I have quite a few on my dad's KA-T two tone, with just eibach prokit/agx suspension. If that would help.

[[email protected]]

Do you think removing front sway gains you even 0.01s?

push down on your car with the front sway on then do it removed and come back with the results.
removing the front sway allows for free movement by removing tension to help with weight transfer.

This year he's getting even more crazy. :2f2f:

[Briou]

So here is my set up and what I ran this past weekend.

S13
Engine:
redtop sr20det
Precision 5128
Greddy intake
fmic
full 3" exhaust
Tomei exhaust mani
full fuel system with 1000cc injectors
Enthalpy tune
20psi

Suspension:
Fully adjustable arms front and rear
Tien mono flex coils
Tanabe front sway bar
Stock rear sway bar

Tires:
Mickey Thompson
275/60-r15

The best run I could get was a 12.87 @109mph with a 2.0s 60'
i couldn't get a good burn out because my front brakes are all sorts of spongy (I need new lines) I still feel like I should be getting better et'....Maybe I just need some more practice....I know it will go down as I get better 60's but still I feel like I should be in the 11's

Idk...any tips??

[[email protected]]

what was your 8th mile et and trap?

[Briou]

Man I will have to get back to you...I lost my time slips but when I find them I will post it up...I feel like my springs are too stiff, I'm thinking about getting some swift springs but don't know what to get...

[[email protected]]

ya just want to see how much you gained on the back half but i thin kwith just a 109 you are in the 12.0's and if you get a good 60 you could break 11's but will have to drive the piss out of it

[Briou]

Found it
http://i1214.photobucket.com/albums/cc488/Briou/59d25290.jpg

[Briou]

I can't get this pic to resize...sorry

[jholman05]

The 5128 is comparable to a 2871 correct? I would expect one of those on 20psi to get traps speeds around 115mph? My GTi-R T28 at 10psi yields 107-109traps. What fuel are you running 91?

[Briou]

running 93...I don't know what it is with my car....well it was like 95 degrees outside and rather humid.....

[[email protected]]

if you can get it to 1.5 60ft you will be in the 11's

[s13 drifta]

Briou, Your trap speed doesn't match your setup. I can trap 114mph on a gt2871r at 16psi, which is nearly the same turbo as the 5128.

[Briou]

if you can get it to 1.5 60ft you will be in the 11's
I know I need to work on them....I am thinking a rude burn out will help with that...I think I can get into the 11's too....I know my car is capable of better times but I don't know how to get them?? I am spinning a little off the line but I didn't think that would put my time so far off from 11's....I will be at the track next wednesday so I will see what happens...

[Briou]

hitting the track tomorrow? anyone got any last minute tips??

Use your ebrake to preload a bit do you don't shock your drivetrain

[zurud]

make a long smokey burnout on that drag radial.

[[email protected]]

just installed my line lock and now wiring it up to the AEM to use the line lock and Drag Anti-lag with the same activate switch.

[jholman05]

Santos what chassis are you running?

I've been thinking about a line lock for my S13 but I'd have to run two solenoids.

[[email protected]]

Santos what chassis are you running?

I've been thinking about a line lock for my S13 but I'd have to run two solenoids.

running a S13, and you dont need 2 one is enough you just need to plug one of the front outputs on the BMC

[jholman05]

I've heard of that being done. Just wondering how it would mess with the brake bias? I run a stock BMC, wilwood dynalite 4 piston fronts and stock rears. I would imagine if I T'd off a front line I would have even less fluid going to my fronts and it would want to lock rears up without bitting the fronts?

My car is more multi-purpose so I'd like to not effect the brake bias.
