A Nismo is designed for road driving, drag racing needs weight transfer. A Nismo's suspension is too stiff, but with much soft rubber of a SLICK, good drag racing is still possible..........
A 1.8 or 1.9 and some more grip through first and second would give him a 10 second et... So meaningless is obviously relative.

Of course, a 1.6 would be great! But it's not going to happen on KW coilovers and 18-19" wheels.. Don't blame me for that!

And yes, using a soft slick and weight transfer is ideal... But that's exactly what I said in my post
