and how much do you weigh if u dont mind me asking...
does anyone know if its wise to drop the tire pressure to 20 psi on low profile tireS (40 )?.. b/c i got my rims on already..
will my 18s slow me down even though its much lighter than the stock wheels/tires setup??!.. cant get better than 15.0xx last year.. but it was pre headers and i had almost 1/2 tank and the spare in trunk... and 18s.. and im not light.. +) help pls....

i only weight 135-140ish so that helps i guess
18's prolly will slow u down, it matters how much they weigh though
i didnt break torque on my 2.2 60 foots, when i break torqued i went 2.4 and sometimes 2.6 on my 60 foots

Strip all the windows, take the trunk lid off, remove the hood, and put on some mini cooper spare wheels for the rears. I bet you'll be the fastest auto. But when you do, be sure to take some movie clips!

Not saying it isn't possible, but doubtful if the Z is well driven

my best run is a 14.3....it was around 60 degrees outside also. i cant wait to get back to the track when it begins to get colder...although i hate the cold. how much does it cost to have the crank pulley installed at the dealer compared to an import store?

if you can hook up well(2.2 60') at 25psi thats even better, cause the lower the tire pressure the lower your trap is, so u wanna experiment and get the best level

the spec for your tites at www.tirerack.com, it prolly has the max and min #'s for the psi on your tire
if u cant hook up at 25 psi try 20 then, but if u can pull 2.2 60's w/ 25psi thats your best bet
