nice times no doubt but I think your a little too cocky.

Blu

iTrader: (63)

your race weight was only 3200 with you in the car

BJS 3.5SE

at the track i'm humble. just cuz i know..there r alota vq cars that can be faster then me..but for now there not..

OH...and yes it was 3005 #'s ...without driver..i actually used both scale at the track to verfiy weight

Blu

BJS 3.5SE

Blu

iTrader: (63)

Nealoc187

iTrader: (23)

Looks like I need to punch my engine out .5L

BJS 3.5SE

i think there maybe one or two...but i don't know for sure

BJS 3.5SE

Nealoc187---that would help ur 98 mph trap speeds

Nealoc187

iTrader: (23)

I've got what's necessary to help the trap speed in the mail, I need something to help me in the first 1/8th mile too.

BJS 3.5SE

i must admit..my car is barely faster then some vq powered cars..and soon unless I do more mods i'll get passed up....but i don't intend to that.

what were the track condition btw temp,humidity,elevation,etc....

BJS 3.5SE

Temp...was 50- 55 degrees when i ran thoose 13.8's...i don't know what the elevation is..but i think it's close to sea level.... and humidity was low...overall weather was pretty good

But I've seen the track prepped slightly better..alot guys were havin traction problems worse then normal...

nice times, but you still dont drive the flagship There are plenty of other Maxima's that would hand it to you.

it seems you are bitter.

where in cali are you? hehe, hook it up with the illegal smog yo!!!

BJS 3.5SE

Well for a while i had a thing goin..where my older bro. had a 02 Maxi. 6 speed with intake and a crank pulley..and i had my alty..that was cool..all this internet S***...between altys and maxi drivers...i had fun with.
AS fas bitter..... naaaaaaa...i just love racin...either drag or NASA road racin..a cars only as fast as its driver

slickrick

iTrader: (12)

ive never understood why people take out seats and things of that nature for the 1/4 mile run. i know obviously it saves weight, but do you drive on the hw without a passener seat?? **** no. so why do it at the track? you cant pull out your seat when racing on the street so why lie to yourself by taking your seats out when going to the track?

Times look nice, but like I said before, let's see a time slip.

Track opens up here in April, I am looking to hit 13.6.

vqman

we're supposed to believe that no all motot 350Z has beat 13.87?

you did say...any vq powered car...right?

BJS 3.5SE:
my friend has an 02 3.5 altima that he plans on taking to the track this spring. what is your launching technique? i can only imagine your guys cars have a ton of torque steer due to a good deal of torque and FWD. i am curious how high you are launching and your clutch modulation as well. FWD is not my territory as i own a 90 eclipse GSX where a 2.0 sec 60ft is nothing to brag about. thanks and good runs by the way.

emax02

iTrader: (1)

If your driving in a straight line TQ steer is not a problem. TQ steer get's you when you floor it while turning. Atleast thats my take on it..

Jeff92se

iTrader: (82)

Torque steer is a problem in a straight line also. It's due to the fact that FWD cars often have unequal length drive shafts and due to the rotation of the axles(I think). It's usually not a problem on FWDs until the industry(or tuners) were starting to get over the 230-240ish hp and 220ish ftlbs torque. Probably why Nissan opted for the HLSD tranny w/ the VQ3.5

-I meant all motor vq's...and as of yet i haven't seen one post faster then a 13.82@102 mph....but i won't doubt if they would be faster vq's outt there runnin ALL MOTOR....

BJS 3.5SE

I still live in the stone age..so i have to go over a friends house to use his scanner or camera... then i will post them soon.......there was a guy there however with his 02 maxi 6 speed runnin mid 14's..that said he posts here on Maxima.org, and he saw me make some of my passes...i forgot his name..but i asked him if he would back me up as a witness....

GOOD LUCK to u EMAX...i plan on makin my car more unstock too

Blu

iTrader: (63)

more unstock that makes sense . Your time will fall to an auto 2-23-03 . I just got to remember to strip my car this time

BJS 3.5SE

ALL that stuff i toke off only saved me like 80-90
lbs...but converting to single exhuast also shaved 30-35 lbs off..
a stock base ALTY SE has a curb weight of 3197 lbs...mine was down to 3005 lbs + driver
If I wanted to spend some time i think i could take off another 75-80 lbs..i think the rear seatback weighs a bite

Torque stear, yea I got that!

BJS 3.5SE

Since i can't my have my slip scanned soon enough...I will fax my timeslips over to nebody if they wanna post them for me...

EMAX---i'll fax them over to U ...if u want

Blu

iTrader: (63)

got video

BJS 3.5SE

Yea i have alot disney movies for my 2 kids..but none of my car...DAMN..just timeslips..and witnesses

lvlaxima

You took out the rear seat lower cusion? How much does that way?

lvlaxima

hehe...weigh

Blu

iTrader: (63)

boy were just full of jokes . What takes so long to photoshop timeslips and make up witnesses settle down bubba we will believe you as soon as the slips post.

What if you don't race on the street. I've run my car in street trim and i know what it runs. When you are trying to push the envelope you do what you can. Taking 5 minutes to save 100lbs of weight is not a big deal. Stripping the car to bare metal is, but thats not what we do.

g9s0x

so how are you launching your car do get those 2.2 sec 60 ft times?? that is the only part of the race that matters...anyone can shift gears, it is the initial 60ft that makes or breaks your time.

BJS 3.5SE

Hey blu...I'll get around to it postin slips ..soon..i just have other things i have to do....

OH...Ewood420 (with his 02 5 speed alty runnin 14.20's with only intake) came by the shop friday afternoon...i think he goes on Maxima.org some.......and we talked and stuff..and i showed him all my slips...i won't lie bout my times.. i know u maxi guys would call me on it.if i did .... ..

BJS 3.5SE

i hold the rpm's up...and feather/slip the cultch off the line...until i feel it hook.....i don't dump it like some...plus featherin it has helped me avoid that nasty a** wheel hop some people get

BJS 3.5SE

i didn't strip the car to bare metal..just toke out the pass. seat, spare, rear seat cushion..next time when i go out i maybe remove another 70 -80 lbs...if i think i need to to drop my ets and push the envelope ...
Oh and with the weight of the car..that 75-80lbs...is worth only about .1 or less in dropped et....
I DONT STREET RACE ne more...i have my two young sons in the car most of the time..i used to street race big time for four or five years, goin out racin for money in San Jose and LA areas..but times change...
But i can understand what ur talkin bout knowin what my car runs...in street trim...alota DSM guys are that way to..,I RESPECT that...

Nealoc187

My post was directed at slickrick, not you. I read your original post I know what you took out. I was explaining to him that going to the track is not about seeing what youre car can run in street trim its about seeing what it can run given every possible advantage. Oh and BTW, I have driven with my front seat out for over a month because I went to the track multiple times every week (not just the drag strip, road courses too) that month and to put it in just to take it back out in 4 days was pointless.
