Actually he gets constant 14.3-14.4 on the track with his turbo back exhaust access port and uppipe. The best he ran was 14.2. I ran 14.1 with bad mount and im hoping for high 13's. 94mph trap shows you how bad is his high end.

I have to rush things up because he is upgrading the turbo to vf22 and fmic so then i wont stand a chance

His 60' was 1.9s

yeah 14.4 on the wife's and that was with an easier launch and at 5800 feet (and an oil coated intercooler also , need to get a seperator at some point )


and as far as mine, i think i got like 15.3 with out spraying which if compensated for altitude, would be about right with your times





and yeah at least you know as soon as that turbo is upgraded he will be gone

that was my old automatic car i had 4 years ago, and i ran a 14.59 at the desoto track, and consistant 14.60's all night.

i should hope to get at least a 14.0-14.3 in my 6spd.

AARONSredTYPE-S

umm, not so much, try 14.63...NOT winning...lol

^ You need those mounts

AARONSredTYPE-S

dont those mounts make the car vibrate @ idle though?

phee

iTrader: (5)

depending on the stiffness-yes. but i have broken mounts that are filled. my car vibrates as-is.

the 62a mounts should be barely noticeable.

i got the 75a tho because i go to the track weekly

and his friend needs these mounts...

man are they stiff fuckers , got them for the wife's WRX, and you can hear every little click/shift inside of the tranny (along with a little gear whine too.... ), with awesome throttle response (and even then i have only put in the tranny mount, because i had to order some mounting plates, from the older engine mount designs, so they will bolt in)

btw streetka, i would be able to get him one of the last sets made before Japan's earthquake, so they are already here in the US

14.27 @ 98.1mph
still not great, but 2.14 60ft and a 0.01 r/t wasnt bad..
i want 13's.
gonna change out my cheap intake and my cat and mufflers, then hopefully i might touch a 13.9 with better driving too of course....

Im going to Etown racetrack today. Gonna have race some subarus with new mounts or not i will break that 13s barrier ! Will post a video

phee

iTrader: (5)

with a 98 trap speed you may want an exhaust. your top end is chocking

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

With a better launch you should be able to get a 13.7-.8.

Jacobpockros

iTrader: (1)

^ Good job man!

I will be going pretty soon.... I want a 13.6 or 7 but we'll see what happens

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

actually it was 2.28 @ 60 foot it was 47deg
i messed up first run 14.5 @ 100, second one was 13.915 and third (with e36 m3 that ran 14.3)13.926

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

Jacobpockros

iTrader: (1)

Nice. What was your 1/8th?

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

9.08 was my 1/8 mile
what was your 1/8 ?

Jacobpockros

iTrader: (1)

9.3, but I was stock

civicdrivr

iTrader: (9)

I wanna go to the track

CH46ESeaKnight

Oh My Gosh! Me too! LOL

Have not been in a long time. I heard rumors they are going to be opening the Memphis track again. It was closed and sold recently. Other then that nothing but 1/8th mile tracks around here. I don't even want to bother with that.

Jacobpockros

iTrader: (1)

Honestly, 1/8th mile tracks are perfect to train on. Since it's so short, the whole race is determined on who has the better launch. I would start doing those 8th mile races if I were you, that way when you do go to a 1/4 mile run, you'll take a lot of unsuspecting cars out of the hole. I remember the 3rd time I took the CL to the 1/8th mile track, I had finally figured out the perfect launch (Just from all that practicing) and was getting so many people out on the line that still didn't know their correct launches. Also for you, automatics are always more consistent off the line and once you figure out how your car likes to take off, you won't even be able to practically mess anything up and all of your passes will be within a very close range of each other.

morgan. dave B and i will be going to the track at the azine meet.

AARONSredTYPE-S

damn, did he not know how to drive? lol
that should have been a 13.20-13.40 car all day

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

yeah later on he improved to 13.6

friesm2000

iTrader: (4)

some of it was probably was getting to learn the car and how it launches

civicdrivr

iTrader: (9)

Yea I saw that post.

Im hesitant to run so far from home just in case something happens, but we'll see once I get there. Ill probably decide to do a few runs. Youre going that Friday, right?

Jacobpockros

iTrader: (1)

I'm going to run after I find a comptech B-pipe (I know it will only add maybe 1 or 2hp but If I'm going to drive that far to get my 13, I'm going to make sure that my car has what I want it to have. (The b-pipe will be my last "performance mod")

AARONSredTYPE-S

streetka 13.9 @ 101 is flippin wonderful, especially with bad mounts. The only thing you have more than me is the pulley, but yet i cant do better than a 14.2 @ 98.7.
obviosly heat has a factor, but i think you just have more horsepower than me for some reason?

StreetKA

iTrader: (8)

Fries just texted me that he did 13.83 at high elevation track :P not sure if he sprayed but i think yeah

BTW im sure he can see this :P

civicdrivr

iTrader: (9)

Yea he told me too. I was too tired to respond though for more info, but Im sure he was on spray.
