Evil S14

Get those Freezer Gel blue fake ice pack things. &nbsp;You know. &nbsp;Theirs squishy, go in the freezer, come out really cold, and still squishy. &nbsp;They go in lunchboxes and crap. &nbsp;Surely you know what I'm talking about.
Anyway, get a cooler full of those, and before you run, strap like 5 of them around your air intake tube. &nbsp;Hopefully you have an Injen or some other aluminum tube. &nbsp;Even if not, it'll really lower the temp. &nbsp;Lower temp air = denser air = more power.

lol.. jeff. &nbsp;nice.

Take crap out of the car. &nbsp;remove spare.. lower air pressure in your rear tires to about 20-25 psi. &nbsp;what kind of 60' where you getting. &nbsp;15.3 is a damn good time for the 240. &nbsp;especially with nothing but exhaust. &nbsp;Other than gutting it, buy more goodies! &nbsp;like a header, and cams, and ecu upgrade

CoasTek240

that is a dman good time.. i know i know it's no F&F times.. but it's very good for a car with nothing but n-1 dual exhaust.. i say buy more power with header, and ecu ,and CAI.. or heck just save and go turbo <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>

Well. &nbsp;If you don't wanna IcePack up your intake, which will really help... as long as you don't open your hood for friends, who will flame you. &nbsp;Anyway, like everyone else said, lose some weight. &nbsp;You car is light enough. &nbsp;But here, you are adding mass to the car. &nbsp;Go on a diet. &nbsp;Eat ice cubes and tofu, and excercise regularly. &nbsp;That will get you a better E.T.

I live in Indiana and the outside temp was 88 but prob, 100 some on the track, last week I ran a 15.3 too and it was 44 degrees outside, but i had a full interior, i ran a 15.3 again in the hot air with no interior, and i only weigh 130 lbs sooo... id say thats pretty light, my 60 foor this week was a 2.3 last week was a 2.1, but my trap speed was 2 mph higher than last week. &nbsp;I also got a hella R/T, a .525

I have a 98se with n1 dual, intake with cold air extension, magnecore wires, denso plugs, and some minor suspension stuff. &nbsp;Once I get my 5spd in, I wonder what I will be able to run.

If you're fighting for that .01 second you can check you're alignment. &nbsp;Is your car dropped at all because if it is, theres is a good chance that you have negative camber. &nbsp;You can also try a little bit of positive camber on the rear because when you rear end dips down, your camber will become close to neutral. &nbsp;also you can try moving your battery to the trunk, &nbsp;I know its not much but the little stuff will add up. &nbsp;You can try using narrow tires in the front and that should help too. &nbsp;How do you line up at the start line? &nbsp;Do you go over and then back up or do you just creep up until the lights come on without going over? &nbsp;That makes a difference. &nbsp;I forgot what they called it but you know how you have the plastic splash guard under you car? &nbsp;Well, I know some people that have something like that but it runs the entire lenght if the car to allow the airflow under the car to be smooth.

I dont want to flame here but depending on the sea level there i think you are bs'n your time. &nbsp;I am from the bay area in cali and i ran a 15.1 with i/h/e, crank pulley, and a jim wolf ecu. &nbsp;Now granite i had full interior, heavy 17inch wheels and a custom speaker encloser in the trunk but still, that seems a little low to me. &nbsp;
later

Junia it's called staging and the best way to do it is deep staging (creep up and don't trip the lights) &nbsp;you can get the best R/T s that way. &nbsp;"But you don't have to take my word for it" Lavar Burton (reading rainbow circa 1987)

Thats an extremely low trap speed for that time. &nbsp;But really nice launch there! &nbsp;That probably explains it. &nbsp;Are you crossing in 3rd or 4th? &nbsp;At the top of 3rd gear, most basically stock 240sx's cross. &nbsp;Kinda hope you weren't adding a shift.

Well, I dont drive a Nissan, so I'm here sticking up for my bud Jason. &nbsp;I can vouch for his 15.3 times. &nbsp;I ran him once. &nbsp;He's got a helluva nice car, and it looked really nice in the rear view of my Integra. &nbsp;Haha, anyway, I can have my timeslip scanned as well if you dont believe me.

that is one quick 97' you got there. &nbsp;Now you need to throw some more bolt ons on there and see if you can break into the 14's. &nbsp;GOod luck man. &nbsp;Keep us posted on your progress.

I think he can get his time down a little more with his current set up. &nbsp;He just needs to hone his drag skills a little more. &nbsp;But he's definately getting there.
