MPH NEVER lies!

There is more factors to it though:

http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/trap-speed-vs-et-explained-here.567417/

Naturally, patterns emerge again after looking at lots of runs and of course these correlate best to time, not mph.

(while 11.5 isn't the best time you need to remember the weight of the car)

Like when i did 12 runs at heathcote my 13.0, 13.1s etc were all over 111mph my quicker 60fts and lower ets were 105mphs (12.6 etc)

The link is a decent read

Yes i know all that :P

MPH is lower if the 60ft is better. Thats the basic summary of the long winded link :)

Avg 60ft is 1.9-2.3 for a typical street car. Such a variance will see 1-3mph diff having raced over 100 passes in my GTS-R years ago. Got it pretty consistent in the end and the 1.9 60fts were always 2mph down over my 2.2 60ft runs.

Still even if you add 3-4mph to 121 - 125mph for 400rwkw is ... A no. Car would have to be 2.5 tonne or there abouts.

Alex, levelled or not they still blind me just as much as any other xenons I see in Preludes etc. Truth is all headlights hit you in the eyes but xenons are always worse...so levelling aside I'd like to see an all or none approach to it.

Unrelated, how the f**k does Tim Cahill eat 9 weetbix...I bet it's not within the space of 5-10 minutes.

I got a few 1.9s with 105 106 ish and 2.0s and 2.1 are up past 111mph.. but i see where you're coming from.

I want to get into the 12s at heathcote :) you better come! or you going to other sprint thing?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
