I am so ready to go for a rip in my car.

The goal this time is to take several people for a ride so they can experience the craziness. No flucks will be given. Be for warned. Only one person
rode in the car last time it was up and going.

awwwww yea! 10/24 it's on!! 1/2 mile races, can't freaking wait! Need the car done first week of Sept, high tail it to Seb for a final tune and then she'll be ready! Can't wait to see if we can break the 170s! (from a roll). https://www.facebook.com/events/315028779745626

From a Roll :ugh2:
Only from a standstill :happydance:

It's a measured 1/2, roll racing at NFZ is dead, just hammer down when they say go :driving:

That will be fun as hell.

Our 1/2 mile event sucked because of the old airstrip. It was old dusty cracked up concrete. You guys have asphalt last I looked. I spun 1,2,3,4 and didn't traction until 5th.

What really?? I didn’t know they shut down the roll racing aspect! Interesting. Still going to be fun, just probably won’t break at 170 mark. Haha

Why not both! :P I like both personally but some drivers prefer 40 roll, some prefer launch. Going to have the GoPros ready!

Ah man, that wouldn’t be much fun. I do have to take off in 3rd from a 40 roll just Bc of how bad I’d spin in second. But from a launch it was just 1st and 2nd mainly for the traction issues. Hoping with this new tune that seb did with the boost by gear, that’ll help a lot! Especially when she’s turned up to 23lbs :happydance:

Expensive fix you traction is a standalone. I’m hoping a tuner implement a race grade TC with Ecu tek.

You can still roll if you want but they had to take the pacing distance out of the track last year.

I'm not sure what you mean on expensive fix you traction? Sebastian at specialty Z is my tuner, he's fantastic at what he does ;)

Thanks for the heads up! I guess it'll make them true Half mile runs now though so should be interesting.

Decided on the APR GTC300 wing with gurney flap! Super excited, going to order here shortly. But to compliment that downforce in the rear, anyone know if the APR front splitter can be chassis mounted? Have seen too many TT Z's have those things fly off once they get over 130 bc it's just attached to the bumper. lol Trying to avoid that.

NP. If you've been to NFZ before it's still the same deal. Drivers still set up their own races. Just no pacing distance and no more glory runs from the back of the runway. There is just over 6,000' of runway at NFZ midwest so it was close to an extra 1/8th if you backed all the way up to the grass with plenty of shutdown. But the insurance man shut all that down after 2018.

With the APR splitter. You have to make your own frame mounts.

Elmo was talking about a true Motorsport traction control. The only way to get it is with a MOTEC Standalone M150 package. Ecutek is limited to the factory ECU and logic. I personally use nothing. I turn it all off and drive with my right foot. Boost by gear will help.

I am crying the blues, my Motec money went to my new engine.

I know Battle Aero make a "supposedly" decent chassis-mounted splitter. I can't say I'd choose their spoilers over APR/Voltex/INGS+1 but it may be a viable option for what you're looking for.

Well, talked with Vince. It will be the end of this week or the first of next week. It's not a tune that can be rushed through as we all know. It will take some time on the dyno.

I have no idea what this new motor setup is going to do. Guess we will all find out together. Since I decompressed from 11:1 to 10:1, that is what has me baffled on the outcome. That and the ported heads with larger valves and ported lower intake manifold. Those are the big changes.

940whp

I don't know if I can make that on 24psi of boost. We shall find out. If I get into the 9xx's, I will stop at 24psi of boost. My wastegates springs are 12psi, 24psi-25psi is about the limit of my external gates without a spring change.

Are you still running on pump e85? So something around 78% ethanol?

Not this time. I will be on Ignite Red. It is what folks call Ignite E90.

E-90=114 octane!

I got my eyes peeled back, watching you guy’s :icon08:
Ordering miscellaneous stuff for the build, that probably will go on for quite some time :rofl2:

Yeap, Ethanol One is 117 octane.

:iagree:

If you have the Fast Intentions crash bar, the rods come up way short. Jarred/AkumaZ made his own vertical mounts that I believe are sandwiched under the crash bar.

Also, 9 Lives Racing just released a splitter for the 370Z. You may want to check it out, too.

The real bonus factor is that the tuner can add as much timing as the want with out fear detention.

Mark and I have had a long conversation about this. E85 will detonate and you won't pick it up on your knock sensor. His recommendation is to only run E85 out of the barrel on high boost for consistency. He has seen many blown up engines that when he takes it apart, he finds detonation traces and then finds out they were on pump E85. Pump E85 is just not consistent enough to risk your engine over. I will stay at 17psi of boost on pump E85.

Won't your ethanol gauge show the consistency? My gauge shows consistent e83 from the station I go to.

9 Lives Racing. It's for a Nismo V2 bumper. Just a splitter. No mounts or hardware. Have to make your own.

It is the other stuff in there that you can't read that is the problem.

Agreed! My comment was strictly regarding Ignite 114 or similar race ethanol. Ignite and others have other additives which also help.

It is not so much about the percentage of ethanol at the pump to a certain extent. It all about the impurities in the percentage of fuel that is not ethanol. I had to have a fuel pump replaced because there was so much junk in the pump ethanol I was running and it was over 80% ethanol. I started running nothing but e-90 after that. There have been improvements made to fuel pumps made for ethanol since then.

Yup. That’s exactly what Jay from real street stated.

That is the reason why Injector Dynamic's came out with their fuel filter for E85 and Bosch injectors. ID-750 I think it is. That is what is on my car. I did have my injectors cleaned and tested before being put on the new motor because the car had pump E85 in the tank since December of last year. Paying that bill was a no brainer.

Here is the filter setup.

Remeber, every two- three fill ups with E run a tank of gasoline through the motor.
