Default My WS6...

Awhile back I was told that I would never boost the Z. Well they were right. After an unreal ordeal with a kit that never happened. It was hard to convince the wife that not all vendors are bad guys. I never could again.

But I've been dying to get back to the track. The passion we have as car enthusiast will never die. My love knew that and surprised me with this find. A 2002 WS6 out of Arkansas.

Engine mods:
Mahle forged pistons
Comp star rods
Arp head studs
All arp hardware used.
241 heads
Dual gold springs
TR cam 230/236 592/602 112lsa
Qtp long tubes
True dual exhaust dumped under car
Ron Davis radiator
Induction:
D1sc head unit
Custom fmic keeps fog lights.
Vortech bov
Aster tensioner/bracket
Has autometer boost fuel pressure and water temp
Fuel:
Dual intank walbro 255s
-8 feed like
-6 crossover between rails
Aeromotive fuel filter
Speed inc fuel rails
Siemens 60lb injectors
Edelbrock boost referenced regulator
Also uses a Hobbs switch for second pump.
Alky control meth setup running 100% meth
Drivetrain:
Strange Dana 60 rear 4.11 gears
Eibach 1.25 lowering springs
Bmr adjustable panhard bar
Sphon sub frame connectors
Sphon lcas
Sphon adj upper control arms.
Billstein shocks
Carbon fiber driveshaft
Stage 5 monster clutch
Trans built with upgraded syncros and forks.


Here's my best run first time at the track, on this run I lost traction after I shifted to second but kept it in the groove.


Watch "11.10 @ 115" on YouTube
11.10 @ 115: http://youtu.be/bYZPR-q3plA

We did pretty good but I need more seat time. I'm sure I'll break into the 10's soon. Just wanted to share with you guys!

^^ Very sweet build

I was kind of sad that the Camaro came back to life, but not the Firebird. I always loved them as a kid.

Jesus Christ. I've seen Chevy V8's shoehorned into RX-7's, but I haven't seen any built Supra motors dropped into a Ford

Well done! I had a 2001 ws6. Looks solid, but the trap speed is extremely low. Didn't watch the video though. We're you on the brakes going through the traps to sandbag the mph? Stock they trap around 104 to 107 and cam only is is ally 112 to 116.

No I was in it the whole way, I spun in second. We have another clip from the starting line and you can see where the car slides to the right when I shift then slides back into the groove. I'll try to find that vid. Getting with the tuner here in a week or so we noticed that all my gauges are either running behind our fast. Like my boost gauge is reading 17 when I'm only pushing 11. My tach is way behind, and my water temp is reading a temperature double of what it really is.

I need a driver mod also.... LOL

I'd expect 120+ traps once sorted out. Guy I know was running low 10s@130+ in a stalled auto with a tire, cam, and spray. Those cars are super easy to make fast. Your et and spinning agrees with your mod list. The trap speed is just super low.

I'm switching to a T400 and 28" DR next year hopefully that'll solve some traction issues
