1/4 mile help. Want 11's
Like the title says, I want to run 11's in the 1/4 mile. I have a Nismo with:
BP turbo kit, so4 tires, stock suspension at stock height, solid rear diff mounts, specialty Z clutch pack. I don't want to spend more $$, just work with what I have. I know I need more seat time for one. Freeking car is hell launching with vdc off. I spin and hop all over! YzGyz |

Better tires and a good launch and you should get 11s no problem.
Whats your best time right now?

money will always be spent and you don't have the grip to get off the line with boost.
get drag radials. still spinning? go with 18s and more meat drag radials. still spinning? 350z base rear calipers 15" wheels and 28" dia slicks.

still spinning? 7AT final drive ratio? 3.357:1 after all, if you canīt put the power down, itīs not doing you any good anyway. |

He is saying swap to the AT final drive to help put the power down. Iv thought about doing this but not sure if it would be worth it

Would help to know current times, but suspension could really help put the power down.

I have some slips in my build thread. They are poop times. I plan to go to the 1/4 mile again tomorrow. I was thinking of drags but it's just not worth it since my car is a DD. I would have to buy another set of rims. That's $$ I really don't have. I started school again so I'm kinda broke. I was hoping there are simple things that I can do to get better times.
time slips here. I had lat off on some of those runs because it was just a horrible launch. YzGyz's turn! YzGyz Last edited by YzGyz; 08-28-2015 at 01:40 AM. |

Get the rear end aligned by someone who has experience doing alignments for tractiin on high hp cars. Also noticed you said you wheel hop like crazy. Continual wheel hop will kill your tranny, might want to keep that in mind.

Your car is a AT, definitely a different ball game.
