thanks guys! Nice to know Im in line to run times like COOP :tup:

I dropped the car off at a transmission shop here in silverdale, WA about 1hr ago to get the OS Giken installed. There is a "Discount tire direct" store about 15 minutes from me so when I get the car back ill be stoppin in for some toyo R888. Skinnies and slicks would be cool but I am going to need something to throw them in when I go to the track, wife has an eclipes :/ and they are not going into the Z. Coilovers will do me wonders too, I am still on the stock suspension and the body roll is rediculous. I did have coilovers at one point and with nothing else done to the car yet, I increased my trap speed by 3mph :)

I am going to try and get another tune also, maybe 12psi (seems to be ok for stock block others are doing it??....) and setting the boost controller's valve controller (HKS EVC) to open up sooner. The valve controller is setup for 4,800 rpm as of right now. The only issue I have with increasing boost is that I am only at 9.5psi but I am also making good power, the compression in the cylinder due to power output at that psi level sort of makes me unsure about doing it.

Speedy: Great driving! That heavy car exploded off the line, and you were bangin' those shifts. Props.

I know this is a 1/4 mile thread but just thought i'd share as i haven't gotten to take her out to the 1/4 mile yet.......did a few passes last night at the 1/8th mile.....hopin its a sign to look good when i finally get out to a 1/4 track :-)

2012 Base, no sport package. stock 18's (wheels and tires) and no LSD, 6MT

Went to Ennis today and got some actual 1/4 mile times. Really hot and humid out but got a decent run i guess. My mods are just a CNT exhaust now. I'm car 914.

The 350 guys 1/4 thread is impressive at this point. C'mon guy!!!! Get your boosted cars with some real rubber to the strip !!!

What's crazy is the 350s nitrous list. A ton of 11 second n20 cars. Vqs seem to like it.

workin on slicks boss :driving:

Nice time Chris :tup:

I wish the track here would open up so I can finally go drag racing again :(

It's already getting hot down here in south FL. :shakes head:

congrats! you're on the list now. That was a nice launch for street tires. :tup:

Wating for my GtM built 7 AT.

I agree with this :tup:

I will be adding my self to this list over the summer.

When are you getting your SC installed?

The SC goes in right after i do the 1/4 mile with the GTM tranney and i have a new 3400 to 3500 stall Pro torque converter for the car.
Hopefully it will beat J nauts time for all motor N/A.
I will be looking at 12.1's to 12.20's
Sam called me lsat night. the VB parts are done and they are in the final stages of assebly and will be tested on his car. My tranny is finished and so his my heat treated flex plate. Still trying to get ARP bolts for the converter install.
it cost about 600.00 to install the converter withj fluid. so im going to wait for the tranney.

Cool, can't wait to see the results :tup:

I'm still trying to beat my stock time. I think I can get it done now with full bolt ons and a bit wider tires than before. The local dragstrip has been shut down most of the season because it was taken over by new management. It was pretty crappy before and supposedly the new owners want to actually make it nice. I hope so because then I can finally run some good times.

Edit: Looks like they are opening up this Friday night :happydance:

I missed the good weather lsat weekend. it was cold and sunny. 42 to 48 with a fully glued track and a 12 mile /hour tail wind.
does not get any better than that.
