Got my slicks on! <pix>

[Brownrice]

Hey guys! I realize using the words 240sx and drag instead of 240sx and drift is sacrilege but I had to do it :p Mods, please feel free to move this where ever you feel it is most appropriate. I just wanted to share my pictures and sizes for reference, search and feedback! Tires are Mickey Thompson ET drag tires 26x8.5x15. The wheels are 15x8 -19 offset. Yeah, i probably could of gone with a less aggressive offset and ran a 10.5 wide tire but circumstances (mainly finances, couldn’t beat price for set!) The rear are using wide body fenders (+30mm i think, could be +50mm, don’t remember:p) any who, here you go . ..haven’t taken it to the track yet. I'll keep ya'll posted. Pray to the parts God I don't have to make a sacrifice!!

mmmm . ..meat

Any feedback is appreciated, negative or positive. Please don't mind the dirty car, it sat for the socal summer (way too hot to work on it) and then recently i started working on it again. No use washing a car that i'm gonna be wrenching on i think. . .Background info: RB25 motor, [email protected] dyno, xs front mount, greddy intake manifold, apexi gt spec exhaust, rest is bone stock. ..HOLLA!

Damn man. Looks good. Not everyday you see a drag prepped 240, good luck with it. and keep us updated on your times.

[SlowCoupe]

looking good man. let us know how you came out with those slicks at the track.

[wootwoot]

Get a bigger turbo and lets see what you can do. I'd also like to see 60 foot times for that power level alone. I was thinking about getting some t/a comp II drag radials in 325/40R15 as a joke.....hahah, I dont have near the power needed for that

[HyperTek]

i remember your car!! still reside in moval? i dont reall the rb tho

[sideview_180sx]

Start the parts collection of snapping axles once the power comes on. Old issue of Dsport had settings, and alignment for there drag 240. Seemed really to help out with 60/FT times. I'll see if I can scrounge up the info you.

Good Hunting.

[DrIvEsldEwAyS]

looks really good!

you can still PM people after seeing pics in the picture thread.

[lucky7]

you can still PM people after seeing pics in the picture thread.

:rolleyes:
pm'ing is homogay. threads like this are always cluttered. cluttered with people saying, "THERES A PICTURE POST!!! ARRRR :blah: ". thats more annoying than anything else. and theres always, "pm them if you have a question." seriously, less thread nazi's please.

[NemeGuero]

thread nazi? there are rules and regulations.. breaking them is what is annoying
'sides.. I only pointed out the fact. if he had posted a time slip with it as well.. then it could be it's own thread.. however, the sole purpose of the picture thread is for *pictures*

[lucky7]

its fairly common knowlege that there are rules and regulations. so if you cannot control where other people post their pictures, keep quiet. the mods will do what they see fit. afterall, its what the'yre here for. so if we can all avoid posting the obvious, "theres a picture post", "pm if you have a question" bullshit, there will be much less clutter. your not changing the final destination of the thread, neither of us have any say in that. so we should just treat it as a regular ass thread until a mod does what they want with it. they will inform the "noob" of the rules, we dont need to waste the finger energy.
