You misunderstood him... he meant SR20DEN got into the 12s with a 1.94 60'... he's in North Carolina not Canada.
Actually, and this is just coincidence, but two of the 3 maximas that have made it into the 1.7 60' are in Canada so I doubt those tracks were any worse than those here in the states. JClaw and Jime have both hit 1.7s in canada. Mardigrasmax is the only one I know of that has run a 1.7 in the USA.

He turned out a 13.89@98.5 with a 1.92 60ft I believe. We varied launch RPM's along with tire pressure but could not bring it down any further???

BTW I have pulled 1.7's at St Thomas, Cayuga and Grand Bend.

Yeah an NA 3.0 doesn't have the power to weight ratio to get into 1.7s I'd say. My best ever is 1.87. If I'd had a grabby clutch and a launch from redline I bet I still wouldn't get lower than a low 1.8... POSSIBLY a 1.79 or something but I doubt it, and I've got more experience on slicks than anyone here except Jime probably.
My average 60' time at the end of my NA 3.0's career was probably 1.90 (don't have my spreadsheet on this computer so I can't say for sure).

Your slicks are too tall to pull a 1.7. I have 23-inchers (that spin easily when they feel like it, sometimes 6500 dump will hold, most times it wont) and will be going with 24.5 when I get more power and raised rev limit.

I don't think SE-R's are much lighter than 4th gens. My car weights 2840 lbs when I remove spare & jack and I have sunroof, full interior, no CF parts and basically only engine bay weight reduction.
