I got a redtop sr20det w/ upgraded T28 turbo, GP Sports Spec R exahust w/3"piping no cat,Blitz dp greddy hot pipe, Greddy Type-S bov, and Greddy FMIC and i got 17" Nismo LMGT4's wrapped in yokohama parada spec 2 tires.

eh.... drag racing.... hmm i predict a low 13 maybe.. prove me wrong, but i think u need to bump up the psi... any lsd? some people like to launch hard like around 4500, me myself i like the rolling start method.. u get about a foot after the last yellow so...

13.3 -13.7 As for the rpm launch, see what launches best. We are not computers.

Shift_Nissan · 05-31-2005, 10:43 PM

no lsd yet need to save up. how much more psi do u reccomend?

sr420det · 05-31-2005, 10:45 PM

raise to 1.1 -1.4 bars

TheSnail · 05-31-2005, 10:45 PM

13.5-14.2sec , 14psi if you want to see what you can do.

do you guys know any company that makes a bottom mount manifold that fits the turbonetics 60-1 turbo?

infinitexsound · 05-31-2005, 10:59 PM

buy a bottom mount mani, and buy a flange.. have a shop cut and reweld.. somethings might be a little off but.. might need some re-adjusting..to make it work... or better yet search.............

and u just gonna spin out and look like a moron. especially with no lsd and street tires.

420sx · 05-31-2005, 11:29 PM

btw, i havent ran my Sr on the strip yet, but launching a ka right at about 3500 is about right. with proper burn out of corse. i ran 15.7-8 consistantly after like 5-6 bad runs. just takes practise. u should launch at about 3200-3500k. but thats my opinion. anything higher u gonna spin out

We were just joking.

infinitexsound · 05-31-2005, 11:48 PM

looking like a moron is doing a smokey burn out to show off.. or not even lining up right... highly doubt the dude would spin out of control.. 3500 is ok, but if your gonna dump it... kinda wanna go higher... iono car condtion, driver skill, pavement all plays a factor.. but blah.. just do a rolling start.. works well and u wont break shit..

put it in 5th gear and sidestep the clutch
