I think I'll be doing mid 12's in early spring. I'll do it with stock intakes & stock exhaust minus the cats. Good chance I'll take my new/used 2012 auto to Atco this Friday or Sunday. No rain Sunday then that's my day. Bracket day import vs domestics. I've got 2,000 miles now. All I need is an oil change :) I don't know how the base wheels/tires will react to drag racing.

Soon, very soon I'll know....

Goal? If it doesn't rain Sunday, I'll do 12.9's to 13.2 & of course win the bracket class over the domestics & other imports. :tiphat:

If you plan on mid 12s with stock intakes and exhaust I want to run whatever track you are on. That's highly unlikely unless that track is super sticky and downhill lol

12.89 @110.74 is my best and that was in march at 60 degrees outside. Only way I see myself lowering my time is with drag radials, camber adjustment, and/or transmission upgrades.

Andre has mentioned using slicks on his 350z a few times, so im hoping he'll do the same with his new 370z

Yes
 

I had to use slicks(it's a manual trans) & special ply front tires. Running with slicks(ply tires) & front radial tire gets you a very hairy(sp)??? & dangerous ride; not to mention the slowing of the car that goes from side to side.

I did have STOCK intakes & Stock exhaust except for test pipes, tune and of course gears. I've held the 350z bolt on record at 12.509@ 110mph for 2/3 years. Early this spring I bought a pumpkin with 4:08 gears(mine was with 3:90) from this 370z sight. After that I did almost all my runs in the 12.4's with the best(on 350z 25top 07/08 bolt on site) of 12.419.......

So with a stronger engine than the 08 hr, I'm confident that I'll do ok with only 3 mods & a tune + tires. No slick cause this is an auto trans and I don't need slicks and don't want to change 4 tires/wheels twice + drive 3 hours each way :icon17:

Now I know the 370z has a GREAT auto trans. but to be honest not modest, I was an excellent+++ 6 spd driver. 3rd & 4th gear I almost shifted without the clutch. So I guess my driving was my best mod ;) What can I say ???

IMPORTANT - mechanical pumkin info needed NOW if available
 

I'm at a Nissan dealership with my pumpkin(rear end) out & the mechanic shows me that the anti lock gear band don't match up.

I have a manual trans with LSD, and want to replace my automatic no lsd unit.

CAN I ?????? ABS???? Do I need to changesomething . Anybody that knows, please post.

Thanks...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yor run will be quick, but the draw back will be the 4th to 5th gear change.
the car just dies in 5th and the shift take .62 of a second vs .32 for the 1 st to 2nd shift.
Z

not for nothing but i dont see why people have trouble to get into the 12s with this car. my best time was 12.7 with just hfcs and exhaust. And every run after that was no slower then 12.9...

LAME people
 

100% agree

If the rain & humidity thing doesn't get that bad this weekend, then I'll go to the track and post my time slips.

Next Spring with 2 mods, tires & a tune, I'll do 12.5's/12.6's and that's without my biggest mod, ME DRIVING/SHIFTING a manual trans. :)

Will not use 4:08 gears
 

So I will NOT have to shift into 5th. Please understand, I wasn't born yesterday :)

no reason to shift into 5th with 7at, 4th tops out at 120ish and no bolt on z will trap that haha.

if you have the 4.08 gears you will be in 5th.

yea i just remembered you have different gears.

Just ran a 13.2718 @ 106.56 mph in a '10 roadster touring with 308 whp weighing in at 3440 lbs (sub driver) on a 1/4 tank of gas. 48 degrees outside and on Micheline PSS.

1/4 time street setup
 

Not bad for a non drag ready car.

Full weight full tank of gas.

11.437 @ 128.90 on MT et 2 305/35/19 R/T - 1.981

Wheels 19" by 11.5 sp3 in the rear also lowered on Kw variant coilovers.

No adjustments made from driving in the street to driving down the strip.
