SZ Z34 TT hits the drag strip......finally!

theDreamer · 12-12-2010, 05:26 PM

12PSI and 100 octane per his thread he made around 550whp & 400TQ
I would say 11PSI is probably still over 500whp.

Nice job Seb... Wasn't sure if you wound up going like you said you were gonna. That car had crazy power when you took me out in it.. How did the tires stick, cause you had them spinning the other day? Lol

Hi Kev

The track prep was very good. No spinning other than me on one run trying to get too aggressive out of the hole.

Nice! Any plans to try out some ET Streets? With that trap the car should be good for low 11s with maximum hookage.

your z was white with green rims wasnt it?

I'd like to get at least a 17" wheel and I know I can only get the ET Streets on a 16" wheel which wouldn't fit on the Sport Package Brakes.

ET Streets are available for 17" wheels according to the Mickey Thompson website. 26x11.50-17.

Nice, I'll have to find a rim with the proper offsets to make it work since its a pretty wide tire. This tire will dramatically help especially with the shock of launching a stick shift car.

serturbo · 12-13-2010, 06:55 PM

Oh yes, slicks are sooo much better dealing with the shock of a manual. My old 240 got consistent low to mid 1.6x 60s with tiny 24x8.5 15s. Let us know if you find a 17 that fits. I tried a 17 from my friend's G35 sedan and it barely doesn't work. There's a step in the barrel of the wheel that hits the caliper. It's not wide enough, but it gave me a good indication that an aftermarket 17 would fit. It would be nice if 16s would clear because it'll give us a greater variety of tire sizes. I tried contacting Bogart to see what they could fit. I gave them some measurements, but they shrugged me off. I even considered CCW, but their drag pak wheels are big $$$$.

m4a1mustang · 12-14-2010, 07:27 AM

Yep, ET streets will be great. I don't know how strong the diff and axles are but I'm sure you will find out soon.

If you can really get the car to hook up right then you should be in the low 11s. You definitely have the power to get there.

Good times Seb! I'm glad to hear you got behind the wheel to control all the power. I have some 1/4 mile times to shoot for now, J/K.
