** drag zilvians chime in**
 

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.

what's the point of this thread?

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

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

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....

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

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!

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Can i Get some more info on this ride. cause i currently building up a 240SX too which will mainly be for drag and street its got a mainly stock SR20 too

im building mine for more drag as well.

mostly stock srde. t67 garret, 1.01 HG, 72lb msd's, greddy EMU, 255lph pump- blah blah.

will let you huys know how it goes when shes up and running,

i will try to get photos of it and details next time i see him.

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

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?

you called?

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

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

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.

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.

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