Anyone Going To The Drags Next Wednesday? (29th Sept)


Recommended Posts

anyone else go.. post times?

I'm pretty dissappointed again by my 14.2s pass

although I seem to be getting alot of tramping from the rear end up to 100km...

I think its my lowered suspension and 19" low profile wheels yeah?

My car was pushing 230rwhp, and now i have a decat and new plenum intake so should be around 250hp?!

What were your 60' times?

Managed a 13.7 when I bought my 33 and took it down stock. A good 60' time is going to get you a good ET as long as you don't bounce off limiter or miss a gear.

I'm keen to take my R1 down but too scared to take off full bore down a drag strip just yet.

13.9 @ 165 km/h (260rwhp R33)

not really happy with that considering my 196rwhp CA18 S13 did a 13.8

the Work 18's on the rear weren't a good choice - they either bogged down or span all the way through first belting limiter.

Anyone get any videos / pics?

13.7 stock? geez im putting out 280rwhp. the 60' was 2.39 on my best run. i guess the 18in wheels and stiff suspension doesnt help? some pretty bad axle tramp on 1st gear when i clutch dumped at 3k rpm.

Get Some Stockies on 16's n put Slicks on it.. n Stock Suspension @ da back if u can so it squats down so u get more grip...

I got 13.7 wif 2.2 60'@ 104Mph.. 3 years ago putting out i say 250HP on 17's wif street tyres..

With the Right Tyre, Suspension n driving skill a low 13's is a possible...

U can try decreasing ur Tyre pressure.. let's 36 to 32 to 28 etc.. n c what's best..

I got told to run stockies wif 225/50 put down to 16-17psi.. do little burnout to warm up ur tyres...

yeh i have 16-17in stockies off an s14 i think. wouldnt know how much roughly a pair of slicks are? i have HKS adjustable coilovers, could i myself fiddle around with them to make it squat more? not really clued up much in the suspension side of things.

I was in my 2003 350z

Anyone else know of 350z 1/4mile times?

LOL I had to launched from Idle... If I even tried to take off above that it'd just tramp and spin :S

:(

my best time that night was a 14.240 @ 160.6kph

reaction time 0.690 (slowest lol)

and 60' time was 2.367 on that pass (not quickest though)

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
