Smoked a 240sx sr20det today

Well, not really, had lunch with gregshin from the board here and we checked out each others rides. His 240 is soo sweet, and I don't think I've seen a car so friggin clean!! We tried to go out and play, but there was no room on the road.

We'll hook up again, and maybe post some head to head results.

The thing with his car though, is it can handle and go in a straight line. Not fair.

wait a second, you said your turbo was just peaking, that is different than kicking in. LOL I guess we'll have to settle it at the track.

You know, if you spent more time on mods, instead of keeping that thing so purty, you might have a fast car. LOL

I guess you're calling me out. LACR next week, lets try to hook something up.


Oh, ya, it was great to meet you too.

.now the pressure is on bud..hehehehe

Has anyone every raced against one of these SR20DET swaps? I saw one at the track running about .4 faster than me, but now I have headers. I don't know if he had the mods that greg has though. I never thought I'd be scared of a little 240sx before. But at least I think I can outdrive Greg. LOL

Think I have a chance?

Sorry Dave but Greg will probably beat you by a few cars. I'm guessing his car runs low to mid 13s.
Why don't you guys come down to Carlsbad?

That will be more than a few cars, as I am a high 13s at best. I guess you were bring nice to me huh?

Carlsbad is a bit of a drive for me, and I've heard such wonderful things about it. NOT. A few of my GTP buddies go there a lot, one of them just finally got his 1st 12sec slip. I think it was a 12.94 or something.

In a perfect world it might be XXX cars who knows...

Carlsbad pretty much sux but it's only half an hour from my house. Just make sure you bring some DRs.

I got ya beat, I live 3.5 miles from LACR, its a nice track, other than the elevation. Kind of slippery too. But the convenience factor gives it an A+.

Those pictures of Gregs car do not do it justice, it is way nicer in person...you know, for not being a Buick.
