just was curious,wanna know how fast i can get mine all motor..who they are where theyre from what mods they got

 

hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

 

I think Scott (aka FAST4EN) had the fastest VG. Best time was 14.3 -14.5? something like that.

 

damn, whats he running? what was your best time with skymax(R.I.P)?

 

blue bottle = good

 

i thought rancid was talking about all motor

 

a 13.99 on the bottle?? either way I guess he holds the VG/NOS crown....

 

I have the fastest VG.

 

I ran 15.9 with Stiilen Filter, Aerospeed Muffler and short shifter. Cant wait to get things like the Y-pipe or the UD pulley or maybe the VG30ET.

 

Scott said he was running 13's on the bottle and low-mid 14's off the bottle.

 

I think he was running intake, exhaust, UDP, adv. timing, stage 2 clutch, short shifter, flywheel?, and I think that's it. Seems VERY skeptical to me. I've seen pics of his so called "94TTZ" and it doesn't look like a 94 to me.. looks like a PRE-92 ZTT. Plus, I've seen him post A LOT of "newbie" questions on the "other" forum and he also says some other stuff that contradicts himself.. so I kinda doubt his credibility.

My best time was 15.4@91mph in "drag" form and my previous best time (with CAI, timing, exhaust, custom Y, wheels, new internals, ported intake manifold, & some other minor mods) was 16.1@86mph.

 

So dressing up like a woman dropped your 1/4 time by 0.7 sec's? Sorry.......

Quick question: Does timing really help that much? I know the UDP helps a good bit with low-end and overall. Definitely a great mod.

 

plus the fact that he's never prouced the N/A timeslip, only the 13.99 for the NOS run....

 

I hope your joking about dressing up like a woman. My 1/4 mile time dropped 0.7 secs because I did some more modifications (tranny, drag radials, weight reduction, etc..) my car was no longer street legal during that 1/4 mile run. To answer your question about timing.. YES, it does help gain a few hp.. maybe 1-2hp and throttle response is more noticable. I agree the UDP is a great mod.. never had them on my SkyBlue max but had it on my Pearl White max and it was very noticable.

 

woah you had a UDP on that bad boy? tell me you swapped it before you sold the car...

 

Yeah I'm joking of course.

 

Yup.. I had it installed with the Stage-II cams. That was back in Nov or Dec of 2000? I was able to return the UDP to the company where I bought it. Although it was the 2nd time I had to return it.. When I ordered the UR UDP, one of the pulleys was warped somewhat.. it was an imperfection so I returned it and got another one.

 

lol the cams were in the white one too? wtf? lol why don't i know these things.

 

Have you lost your memory?? lol.. When I bought the Pearl White max, I started modding it like crazy right away. JWT Stage II cams, JWT ECU, UR UDP, ported intake manifold, ACT Stage II clutch, WSP Y-pipe, PR CAI, and I ordered a Short Shifter which I never got to install. After I had all those mods I was street racing and I was losing!! My car was slow.. I was mad so I got wanted to get rid of this car. Sold the JWT cams & ECU to a .Org member.. returned the UR UDP, sold the intake manifold to a .Org member, kept the clutch, returned the Y-pipe (it was almost like new), kept the PR CAI, and returned the Short Shifter. I'm sure if you searched the .Org last year around November & December you'll see some posts where I was having trouble with my idle (from the JWT cams).. and probably some posts where I kept saying my max is slow.. lol.

 

lol. i remember the posts but i just remember you selling the CAI and the Y...oh well. i have faced the truth that the VG is slow as well. 8 more months till graduation...mwahahahahahaha

 

at least the 3 of us realizes that.

 

i went racing with nevin and i was like "where did he goooooooooooooooooooooooo" hehehehehehe VE's BABY!

 

isn't that why we snapped that shot at LSP?

 

I remember went you said your car was slow even with all these mods. I figured at best a VG would pull low 15's with I/Y/E/UDP/cams because of the weight of the car. I also know now that JWT has different programs for the ECU with/wo cams too. Its unforunate you couldn't dyno the car, from being on the SE-R mailing list. I've learnt that mods like that need to be tuned. Also the JWT S2 cams seem to perform just like the S4's for the SR20DE's. You lose bottomend power but gain alot of toppend power. I think the missing link to getting a quick NA VG is the compression. If the compression was raised to at least 10.1-11.1 you'd see a 8-20fwhp gain right off the bat .

 

I think the VG's are better off with the JWT Stage-I cams. I didn't know about the Nismo cams back then but I hear they are pretty good. I think DA-MAX knows more about the Nismo cams. I like how the JWT cams use blanks and grinds them to spec but other companys just take stock cams and regrinds them.. I don't like that. JWT Stage-II cams would work better with VE's since they are tuned for high RPM. It's really hard to make a VG breathe on top end.. I tried it with the Pearl White max (stock internals) but no success. I was better off with my low end - mid range power from my SkyBlue max (titanium internals).. too bad the auto tranny didn't like it After taking my VG max's to the track, I realized that you need to rev the RPM up to atleast 6k otherwise your 1/4 mile times will suffer which didn't make sense to me because you lose power after 5100 RPM.

 

I'm no expert, but I've ridden in Max O/D's car and the improvements are VERY noticable....for example, say I floor my VG, it pulls clean up to 5100rpm or so and then BAM no more.....unless I'm racing a Civic or something , the VG starts to fall behind quick and the power loss is a *****, BUT in Max O/D's car, the pull is continuous and clean up to around 6k or so(since his MSD is set at 6k limit I think). but according to my butt dyno the NIsmo cams definently bring life to the VG highend, maybe not as much as the JWT IIs might in a 5spd, but none the less, they pull strong all the way up to the 6ks!!

basically let me put it this way, on our way back from LSP meet this summer, he raced a VE auto(catback, y-pipe, UDP, tuned AFC, CAI) against his VG auto(catback, y-pipe, UDP, CAI, MSD unit, tuned AFC and ported manifolds)....on the open highway he consistently beat the VE throughout the whole RPM band and put a couple lengths on him into the 100's....now heres what I think, the VE he raced was a consistent 15.5-.6's car, so in a sense its qutie possible that Max O/D's car is either in the mid 15's right now even with a slipping trans! my guess is if he can fix up the trans pop in a highstall converter and VB he could indeed be doing some damage for the VG boys, but I'm not sure what path hes heading in now...

but Max O/D really knows his stuff and has done A LOT to his ride, but lately people were ragging on him about the "altezza" thing, so he kinda keeps a low profile on here, but the man knows his stuff, and could possibly have one of the "upcoming" fastest VG autos....

 

I didn't think JWT made cams for the VE.....

 

Considering there are those guys down south dragging Z31-t RWD VGs, I really doubt anyone here has the fastest VG. VG maxima maybe but then again that guy w/ the VG-T and the TechII or Haltech standalone was making good power. donno how fast he actually went though.

 

always crushing our dreams!!!!

 

Haha! Reality is a ***** sometimes. lol

 

I think what he meant is. JWT VG cams should go in a VE. Randy.

 

Ah...err.....ah.....hmm.....ah.....

It's pretty hard to install sohc cams into a dohc cammed engine.

 

what was the lift and duration on the JWT Stage IIs, cause I'm looking at the Gude VG30 cams and their setup looks pretty "aggressive"---> .500 and 228 and a 6.8k redline, compared to the NIsmo/Euro's .392, but another plus about the GUde package is that it comes complete with ported heads and intake, valve regrind and the cams for about $1300....seemes like a decent price considering JWT cams will run you $500, a good P&P on the intake will run you $3-500 and a valve regrind will run you some more loot...

 

Yeah it is. Let me re word it. Ummmmm...The VG cams dont really work well on a VG. They would probably work better for a VE (Even though they wont work) but as far as breathing on the top end. I make no sense online. I will call you and explain

 

woah, i'm confused. do they make cams for the VE? i thought they only made em for the VG. dohc and sohc. how would they work?

 

NO,Maybe custom.

 

dude, quit while you're ahead...you're making no sense right now....the VG cams work EXECPTIONALLY on a VG....what are you talking about??

 

see, he confused me!!!!!!!

 

mm maybe I should call you. hehe

 

Ahhhh, I know I am overly tired. I was going off your post that said something about how the stage 2's would work better on a VE...I will shut up now because I cant even speak well right now.
