went to the track again as i always do on wed/ every other fri and the best lap tonight was as follows.

tree speed - .500
R/T - .650
60 - 2.312
594 - 8.789
660 - 9.367
mph - 77.84

temp was 77-80 degrees
my 60' is still far from good but the tire's suck so that will improve in a little while. this time equates to a 14.6(my self i personally think this equation is not right but who am i. i guess i will just have to take a weekend trip to a good 1/4 mile track and see if this equation checks out.

 

Yes you have to go to a 1/4 mile track. I am not a pro at this but do you think that running your car hard every week will hurt the engine?

 

Nice numbers again Maxmale! You are just teasin' us with those 1/8 mile runs, we gotta get a solid 1/4 mile. Your mph looks good too! I'm going to make a few calls today, see if I can find out where the closest 1/4 mile track is to me. PEACE....

 

i've had higher traps, but this was the first 9.3 iv'e had to date.

also i really haven't noticed any diffenrence in driving or handling since ive been going. but i also only run once and then let her cool off for a good thirty minutes before lining back up. i hate heat soak.

 

you gotta get in the 60' marks to a 2.1x and you'll be seeing nicer e/t

 

i already knew this. but it is not going to happen on these tires

 

put the stockers on the front and deflat them to about 25 psi and keep dropping it a pound or two every run till u figure out the ideal tire pressure/traction setup

When i went to the track 2 weeks ago, my friends g35C 6-speed ( intake) was hitting the same 60" times as my car.

When I dragged my car last year with the 20's on it, I was pulling 2.3 all day long, the stocks definetly helped me rip off the line

 

i found a more accurate equation for a 1/8 to 1/4 conversion. it goes as follows.

your 1/8th mile time. plus .22 divided by .665

using this equation my 1/4 mile time should be around a 14.415 give or take.

 

my best run at the quarter a few weeks ago was a 14.59
60' 2.12
330' 6.173
1/8 9.428
mph 75.71
1/4 14.59
mph 95.56

Now if you notice your 1/8 mile pass is 2 mph quicker then my mark.
On a good day you should definetly see low 14's in a 1/4 mile pass

 

my 1/8mile pass was also .1 lower

how did you get a 2.1 60'? are you auto or 6spd?

 

using the equation i stated above your 1/4 mile time would be a 14.508

 

U can get 2.1s on street tire, Just need to practice more. The 6th gen seems to gain 20-21 mph after the 1/8 mile so u should be trapping around 98-99 which is good for a real low 14.

 

MAXMALE,

did you get the nitrous set up that dude was selling? get some spray already... 13's all the way..

 

man, im holding off on the juice. maybe when income tax season rolls around i'll get it. what i really want is some freakin headers, and new tires, and sub-frame connectors, and maybe an engine dampner.

 

freakin money issue... I hate not having enough also dude..

 

Here is some cheap "juice"...

Has anyone ever dared to buy this $25 dollar wonder? That comes out to one dollar per hp.

 

If, for some reason, you had any doubts as to whether or not it really works, just read his feedback. I bet there are people out there buying this crap daily. Wait, obviously some have because of the feedback. I'll bet the Maxima.org sticker has more hp per dollar.

 

When are you do to reenlist? Is your career field offering bonuses?

 

im due to re-enlist in feb 06. im not sure if were over manned or undermanned. they have initiated high year tenur, but i am constantly hearing were undermanned.

 

My original Date of seperation was Jan 06, but I had to extend to Dec 07 in order to crosstrain into a different job. I just graduated from my new tech school, so I have til 30 Sep to re-enlist to get a "nice" bonus or I have to wait until Dec 07.

I'm taking the bonus now, but I will owe 5 more years on top of my original 4 that is ending in this coming Jan...If that makes any since. LOL!

 

oh man.... let's not talk about reenlisting on the org. my contracts over in august '06 and i'm still debating if i should reenlist or not. it wouldn't be bad reenlisting for 3 years of shore duty, but seems like i'm wasting my life in the navy.

 

I hope you mean to say that you wish you were serving in a different branch of service.
