if i remember correctly it was on slicks, many bolt ons, 8100rpm, 4.10s, and he's an above average drag'er pretty sure there was built and tweaked tranny/valvebody and high stall converter in there too. Zeliminator are you going to go to the 350z rear subframe and arms for the increased anti-lift?

The car had drag radials, and it was a stock 7 AT. with a pro torque converter and a few bolt on's.
The gears make a big difference.
When the car was totally stock it ran 13.20

Well, with FI taller gears are preferred. Without calling for a pissing match...which street tire has the best 'out of the hole' grip? I know 1st gear is useless but I want a tire that does a good job of holding 2nd and gripping 3rd. Is it just a dream ?

2nd should be a non issue with a tire upgrade. My stock 19's break loose but it's not bouncing off redline like 1st. Centrifugals tq curve helps. 1st tho, it's slicks or baby the throttle.

^ hey SS any plans to take your Z down the 1/4 soon?

SS_Firehawk 02-02-2014 01:43 PM

When I have some time. Maybe during spring. It was 48 outside and I felt my car get loose at 120mph today. I need some nicer rubber too. These Bridgestones are not cutting it.

my best 60ft on RE-11's is 2.11. this is a **** 1/8th mile known for horrible traction though. to compare, a muscle car with drag radials did a 1.89 60ft against me. best times were after spinning in the water before launch. was running 27psi in the rear. will drop to 24 next time maybe.

i'm able to hook in 1st with minimum spin. if you heat up some good tires, i don't see why you won't be able to either.

you can always change your gears too and go taller:

do the 18" TE37s clear sport size brakes? i found a great looking and semi cheap set of 18x12" rears for drag runs but i have read that others have had to shave the rear calipers to fit. i would love to get have a set of rears with wide drag radials on it for drag runs without having to mod my rear brakes. just simple swap in and out with my regular wheels.

Keep going down on the air. 24 is not low enough.
