Z eliminator vs the GTR

That camaro didnt know what hit him.

Z Elim, if I remember correctly, you once said you weren't gonna go all out on the kit. That you weren't going to run the crazy boost pulley combination because you wanted the motor to last. I hope you do make 475hp, but I disagree when you say that's in any way conservative. I saw you talking about 500+whp in another thread also. Compared to that, yup, its conservative, but in reality to make 500whp on the SC, you gotta be making like 550... I just don't know that the SC will pump out that much power man, specially on the non-extreme setup you're going for. I'm not trying to put you or the kit down, I hope it makes as much power as you want it to, I'm just skeptical that SC is the best way to do it. Frankly, I'm really surprised you didnt go TT on a drag car.

If you do run against the GT-R, we need vids!!!

CrownR426 · 07-09-2011, 10:17 AM

You can do it Z!
I think super charger is best for a Z in auto!
Rip them up!

Z eliminator · 07-09-2011, 10:54 AM

Nice video. Great run.
i hurt my drag radials the lst time i went to the track. i have cracks where the top of the tread meets the sid of the tires.
I have to get them checked to see if there are safe to race with.
Update, No supercharger from GTM yet. It looks like at 8 psig i will make 450 SAE RWHP.
But as i will have to get the smaller pulleys for more boost.
will keep yopu guys updated.

With your upgrades....I think you have a really good chance if you can get Godzilla out of the box. It definitely will be a good run to see...Best of luck to you and make sure you film it!!!!

RCZ · 07-14-2011, 12:29 PM

please do keep us updated!

Z eliminator · 03-15-2013, 08:51 PM

updates
running 12.34 now,this winter i installed the GTM built tranny, going to the track either last weekend of March or April 6th. to run it, Going for Jnauts record time.
it shifts at least 3 to 4, tenths quicker than my stock on and i'm running uprev instead of the cobb,
I see 11,9s .
right after that im putting in the stage 2 GTM SC,

will keep you posted

NYBladeZ · 03-16-2013, 12:23 PM

Great time for an N/A Z! Is this time with slick tires?

SPOHN · 03-16-2013, 05:29 PM

I feel a TT kit would be better at the drag strip.

V8Killer · 05-22-2013, 09:53 AM

any updates?

Z eliminator · 05-23-2013, 07:44 AM

I ran slower with the GTM buitlt tranney /
12.500 @ 114.7
the 1/8 mile times were 90.4
fastist time to date
It was the first day that the track opened. I spun the tires on the 3 to 4 shift.
Not the best day to run the car.
I feel that the track timing was off that day as they were having trouble with the mph sensor at the traps.
The car needs to be tunned as the uprev is not as freindly to my car as the Cobb is.
it boged at 2200 rpm and boged on every gear shift.No excuses but im working on. The tranney is a beast when shifting gears (bone crunching shifts ).
driving the car that day it feelt a lot faster than a 12.500 pass.
Hopefully the tracks timing equipment was faulty.
On the good side of things there was a guy there with a brand new SRT hemi charger.
14.45 to my 12.50. He was not having a good day. we had a heads up drag race.
best 60 ft was 1.86.
thats the latist up date

G37Sam · 05-23-2013, 07:55 AM

VQStryker · 07-14-2011, 06:07 AM
