congrats trance! great times

Nice congrats! Welcome to the 12sec NA club :)
DAN |
NICE! I too am aiming for 12's. Can't wait to hit the strip..
|
Great runs. What are your thoughts on the flywheel. I've been getting some temptation to swap mine. How much more freely does the engine rev?
|
Congrats! Great times. Fantastic 60' there, magic shoes. :tup:
|
Nice times!
|
Congrats. I hope to hit 12's as well when I hit the track, but the last three times we had reservations to rent Atco in NJ it rained. Maybe next time.
|
Damn!
Why aren't you modding some more?! |
Thanks everyone! When I finished the run I thought I had a 12.9xx - little did I know I did slightly better! Feels good to finally hit my goal.

BTW, I'm very pleased with the mods installed. Great job by Jnaut's shop. :tup:
my best stock time 13.127 @ 105.27 mph DA = -421 temp = 54 degrees F with high flow cats & jwt flywheel 12.899 @ 107.64 mph DA = 620 temp = 70 degrees F The numbers don't lie. Even without taking into consideration the DA's I picked up 0.228 seconds on the ET and 2.37 mph with just two mods. |
What exactly does the flywheel do for you?

Those are huge gains over stock for just the Berks hfc and flywheel. Were the primary gains due to the flywheel or HFC's? Did you do any runs with just the HFC's?
|
rayray puttin it down 12.8's is awesome!!

The cost is about the same cost as a clutch job. It's a perfect mod to do if your clutch is toast, you save on labor. Quote:
I didn't do any runs with just the cats alone. Quote:

A light weight flywheel had to be one of the best mods I ever did on my G20 and I'm sure it will b on the Z when I do it, but I only got 6400 miles so its probably going to be a while.

I'll let you take my Accord down the track if you let me drive the Z :stirthepot: |

Congrats on the 12 second timeslip.
|
Congrats on the time!
If I'm correct, flywheel is only for manual transmissions? Is there something that would provide similar performance enhancements for a 7AT? I know 4.08 gears is DB option, but I DD my Z and spend most of my time on the highway, so I don't think I want to go that route. |
Wow -- open dif too! Congrats!
Has anyone found any real advantage to having the LSD? Quote:
Having a tune so that the shift speed/firmness is tweaked (it's tunable with uprev). |
is your track level ? lol

He has the sport pkg |
Quote:
So are all the faster times from folks with a LSD then, OEM or otherwise? |
Probably doesn't matter for drag racing. The limited slip comes into play much more when you're powering out of corners and the rear tires are unequally weighted.
|
I ran my 12.9 on an open diff. Havent went back with the 4.08s and vlsd
