Nice runs!
Is your Z a base or touring? sport package? And could you post a higher resolution pic of the time slip? Quote:

my car is a touring non sport.
Blades - I run on the stock 18 inch wheels with stock yokohama tires. As for launching I just sidestep the brake and floor it quickly but smooth. I've tried bringing up the revs on the foot brake and then launching, but it doesn't seem to help my sixties. Then again I haven't tried pulling the brake fuse yet. I've got exhaust on order and I just bought a pair of drag radials for the track. I wind the tach all the way to redline every gear. It's hard to time the shift perfectly before the rev limiter. I can't stand the soft rev limiter in this car. Hard to tell you hit it until it's too late. If I hit the limiter then shift i get a thud and slower et's. One quick - I'm not on chicagoz, never heard of it until now..haha. Havent been to any meets either, I'm out your way near Joliet. I've only had the car for a year now. |
Oh and blades... You have lowering springs correct? I think the reason you can't match your stock times are due to the springs. The increase in rear camber has got to kill traction.

.4 out of a n/a tune is as good of a gain as you could ever expect. I wouldn't of returned it.
My best Time in my 6sp 12.92 was done on open diff. Lol Seems base models always go .1-.2 quicker |
chuckd - best run on hypertech tune was at 33 psi. I decreased the tire pressure later in the day hoping for better traction. On the best mph stock tune I was at 28 psi ( more rolling resistance ) and the difference between tunes was 106.25-105.82 . Throttle response was better on the stock tune. Times were slower because I had more wheel spin on the stock tune runs. So even if hypertech gave me 6 hp or so...which I really dont believe, the car drove better on the stock tune. Plus I got my money back and may use it for uprev.

I also haven't tried pulling the brake fuse and I probably never willl. I usually put my foot on the brake and rev up to around 1500-2000 rpm and simultaneously let go of the brake and floor it. I think I tried just holding the brake and not revving up once before, but it didn't help much. I'll have to try it again the next time I go. I think tires are the main thing holding my times back. These all seasons just don't grip as good as a summer tire, but I'm still determined to get into the 12's with them. Just need to wait for a night with some low temps. |
370z bolt on -11.99 112 mph
I'm seriously thinking of getting a 370Z & next spring trying for that magic 11.90 1/4 time(bolt on class).

The Z is going to the track june 23.
only change will be art pipes i have the new converter but the VB is not ready for the built tranney. will install them at the same time. Too much money to install then sperately. the SC goes on right after i run the tranney and new converter. Z |
I went to ATCO Raceway NJ tonight the best I could lay down was;
R/T .618 60' 2.193 330 5.833 1/8 8.787 MPH 83.76 1000 11.320 E.T. 13.467 MPH 105.64 Other 2 runs were 13.8's @ 105's I have 2011 MT6 Sport w/ Post MAF Tubes, K&N Drop ins, Invidia TP, UPrev Tune. Car pulled 309.89 RWHP & 263.13 TQ on Dyno. I was shifting into 4th right @ the end of the 1/4 rest of shifts were @ around 7700 RPM. I am a little disappointed but I am sure it was just driver error. I have F.I. exhaust ordered and plan on getting Boosted Performance turbo kit as soon as I can order it..so we will fix this. :driving: |
Nice :tup:
Planning on going this Friday night. Finally have summer tires on my car now so hopefully I can finally beat my stock time :p |

So how is a tubo going to fix that? sorry, I can't help it :) |
Made a little fun, now I can help you.
Your 60' sucks & you're just getting into 4th at the finish. Solution, You get 4:08 gears & a good set of drag tires. With your H.P. & those two additions will get you easily into the 12's.... |
