At 534/496 1st is useless 2nd have to feather and 3rd is scary fun but I've managed to keep it straight as possible while sometimes spinning. Anything 600+ will be perfect for what I'm looking for. Roll racing. I'm on coils and a quiaffe diff. Has helped a lot. I believe with the right suspension and diff AND gears 600-700 is a great street car.
I don't really have the time to go thru the process to get on a track for laps. Would love to but, calling a few buddies and hitting up deserted streets is much easier for us.

What's you rim and tire setup?

elperuano 11-04-2014 02:48 PM

Actually is mild aggressive setup. 20x10 20x11.5 255 fronts 275 rears. Around -2.5 camber. Started off as show car then powa came on later.

Yep with a N/A build you're powerband is crazy good. Probably feels like 500whp with that tack slinging 8k RPM.

Yes and no. If you're full throttle you will blow all 3 gears with normal street tires.

I for one can get traction peddleing 1st and 2nd gear catching at the end around50ish MPH. Just my experince.:driving:

Best DynoJet number guess is 480whp/450wtq @ 10psi. I do have the diff bushing upgrade which seems to help.

10psi 480whp/450wtq is the perfect street use power. Just enough to run decent 11's with good driver or enough to blow the doors off a C7 on a 40 to 120mph pull.:owned:

It's your build, your goals. VQ37HR don't need to be built.

1slow370 11-04-2014 02:55 PM

Your running a 275 stretched on a 20x11.5" wheel at -2.5 degrees camber? You must have low standards for acceptable traction.

It blows the doors off a lot more than a C7, not that I would know :ugh2:

I'm running a 275. I thought maybe you had squeezed a lot more tire in a G and I was getting :excited:

Why did Nissan go and hamstring the G? Guess it's R-compound time:driving:

Yep. Even with my 8 PSI tune I took out a C6 on a 200ft, and kept up with a GTS Viper.

Works for me. I explained how i drive and have never had any problems i couldn't handle. Yes, they're stretched somewhat not that much. Also being a show stance car that is the obvious setup i wanted to run.
I think the quaife diff helped out a lot.

i guess your tires suck then cuz the ones that i have hold mine just fine and i run the piss out of it everyday....today on the way home i was running 13psi and did a pull against my wife in my talon and still didnt blow off the tires (after tires are warm) and went from 30 to 170 no spins...

My uncle is one of the owners of jegs and when i was younger i raced legend cars..we only did 4 to 8 races a year.i always said it had to much power...he said no car has to much power it just means your driving skill has to improve....he would always say control the car dont react to the car...is what i'm trying to say is we r not in a honda you dont just slam it to the floor and hope it goes where yu want...

1slow370 11-04-2014 09:24 PM

Eh to each his own i would rather have a car that can easily hook up what it has than one i have to contantly hold back. A 450hp z runs mid to low 12's a 700hp z runs low 12's. Up to 125mph its the same ****. One is just a lot easier to drive.
