Ok took the car to my own ex nissan mechanics this morning.
They found the tranney to be dowm 2 quarts.
This really ***** me off as i just payed nissan 180 .00 two weeks ago to flush and refill my tranney.
This why the car shifted so bad from 4th to 5th. The shift took for ever 2 or 3 tenths at least. the engine did nothing but die till it hit 4000 in 5th.
It cost me my 12.4 pass.
I had the oil changed to royal puple racing 5. 30 today and drained and filled the rear diff. with royal purple.
he also bumped my timing 2 degress.
Look out the car is now a living terror. It jumps and shifts way better than when i went to the track.
I have both skinney mounted on the spare tire rims now.
The saving is aprox 31 lbs of the front of the car.
will post pic of tire today.
Im still waiting for one fitting for the line lock.
light weigh rotors and brake pads ordered from racing brake
will change out real brake hose to SS so that i will have more brakes holding the back wheels on the launch.
will be at the track in 2 or 3 weeks.
Will not catch J naut but it going to be a fast !/4 mile time
Now if i can only figure out how to attach the seat belt to my racing seat.i can pull a nother 21 lbs out of the car.
