1/4 mile help. Want 11's
 

Like the title says, I want to run 11's in the 1/4 mile. I have a Nismo with:

BP turbo kit, so4 tires, stock suspension at stock height, solid rear diff mounts, specialty Z clutch pack.

I don't want to spend more $$, just work with what I have. I know I need more seat time for one. Freeking car is hell launching with vdc off. I spin and hop all over!

Better tires and a good launch and you should get 11s no problem.

Whats your best time right now?

money will always be spent and you don't have the grip to get off the line with boost.

get drag radials.
still spinning?
go with 18s and more meat drag radials.
still spinning?
350z base rear calipers 15" wheels and 28" dia slicks.

:iagree:

still spinning?
7AT final drive ratio? 3.357:1

after all, if you can´t put the power down, it´s not doing you any good anyway.

he's manual I would assume. BP wont change their kit to fit the 7AT.

He is saying swap to the AT final drive to help put the power down. Iv thought about doing this but not sure if it would be worth it

yeaaaaaa misread that lol

I was in a meeting but still trying to keep up :wtf2:

Would help to know current times, but suspension could really help put the power down.

do you have a slip from your last best run?

I have some slips in my build thread. They are poop times. I plan to go to the 1/4 mile again tomorrow. I was thinking of drags but it's just not worth it since my car is a DD. I would have to buy another set of rims. That's $$ I really don't have. I started school again so I'm kinda broke. I was hoping there are simple things that I can do to get better times.

time slips here. I had lat off on some of those runs because it was just a horrible launch.

Driver mod...

BETTER TIRES for starters...your going to need ATLEAST a decent 60ft to hit 11.xx.... what is your current TRAP?

Get the rear end aligned by someone who has experience doing alignments for tractiin on high hp cars. Also noticed you said you wheel hop like crazy. Continual wheel hop will kill your tranny, might want to keep that in mind.

should be no problem with a SC or turbo
I go 12.34 all motor with bolt ons.

Your car is a AT, definitely a different ball game.
