I have Cattman headers, cattman fast cat, budget b pipe 2.5", straight through N1 style muffler, TS 3.0 ECU. I ran on street tires. Ecsta asx 225/55/16 at 25psi. Smoked them a tiny bit every time I got to the staging area. I got worse and worse wheel hop as the night progressed. I wonder if that has to do with how many cars ran by that time of the night.I hooked up really well on my 13.6 run with mild wheel spin and maybe an hint of hop. I'm not sure how much the ecu is helping, but it must be, cuz I don't have my VI rpm switch working yet. Still need to get a UDP or lightweight crank pulley cuz mine is wobbly. I think launching was made easier because I had no rpm switch. I launched at 2.7 -3K Not sure if i slipped the clutch or not though. I think I just dropped it hard and fast every time. I was trying to figure a good RPM to launch at. I will figure out all the details next time.

 

Great times buddy! If you can replicate that kind of 60', you'll be golden

Don't forget about that run where you trapped over 103

 

^^^^Word!!

 

You should be proud. 13.6 on STREET TIRES (not even DRs, street tires) is an awesome #. Those tires are very sticky if you were able to hook a 2.0 60'. Congratulations

 

Great times! I can only dream of a 2.0X 60 ft on street tires..

 

I told ya Darius.....

 

I guess the track did hook then........ Excsta asx are not the stickiest though. they are rated at 440 tread wear. I even noticed that they felt less stickey than the dunlop sp sport a2 I had before(but they wear out in 9 months)

 

dyno.....dyno......dyno.....dyno

 

man that is awesome ! i need to get my old bucket some new parts under the hood. my vq30de is getting old ! i wish you had some videos, i have been wanting to hear a 3.5 liter 4th gen race down the track and not only that pull out the sleeper hold move on some unsuspecting cars. simply awesome ! nice work. post up your times at dragtimes.com or somewhere ! long live the freaking 4th gen maxima !! 13.6 rocks !

 

I can't imagine your car with a 3.5

 

o dude, im in a slump right now, i will do it one day but for now will have to keep on trucking with vq3ode and that freaking lame usim.

 

Actually I was there when he ran. I have the video and I'll tell you one thing it sounds good. I'll try to post it up when I get home today. Its not the best quality though because my little brother was taping.

 

who all did he race ? and yeah the video make one and upload it to www.youtube.com that seems to work real good. i like how that 3.5 sounds inside and out of the car, makes the 3.0 sound weak.

did you race the green lantern ? i have a friend over here who races an auto, how can he get a 2.1 60 foot like you, if you have time just send me a pm so we wont do any topic hijacking !

 

ok cool I can do that. I did race but didnt do as good as I usually do. But I'm going back as soon as I get my tires on. I'll pm you soon with some tips for your friend.

 

Oh man, I didn't know you had a video of me running. Definitly post that. I'm kind of curious to see what it looks & sounds like from outside the car.

 

OK here is the video. Once again my little brother was taping so excuse the quality and the sudden cuttoffs.

cool vid

 

My third run is so funny! Look at the smoke flying out from one wheel. HAHAHA.
Oh and the part where I didn't stop before the the second light. Yeah...............

 

o man, you tube is doing something to the website and i cant see the video ! will have to wait to see the 4.5 gen laying down some rubber and nailing 13's

 

i enjoyed the video, man was that both you and aj racing ? i had a hard time seeing what times you ran, but on one race it looked like you went up against a new mustang gt and won ! did i see that right ? tell me its true ! what a kill, if not who cares. YOU ROCK !

 

I added a clip of me at the end of the video. They had turned the boards off because it started lightning. I had more runs but they all came out like crap. That was 95maxrider running against the mustang and he lost by inches. It looked like otranscendental won almost all his races.

 

Yeah, except the one against the 11 sec nova.

 

I guess you can't see it in the video, but I actually beat that 05 GT. He ran a 14.8 at 97 to my 14.7 at 96 I got a better launch than he did...2.2 to 2.3

 

Something must be wrong with his car.

 

Well, I don't think his trap speed is too far off from normal. I'll blame it on th driver.

 

maybe it was a 4.0 liter v6 and hey no shame in that v6 vs v6! a race is a race and you got that one, but the new gt should be able to crush the 14.8 second barrier?

anyways great times and cool video !

 

Yes, the new GTs should be around a 13.8. I really doubt that V6 is trapping higher than my car. Probably just a poor driver, judging by his 2.3 60'.

 

Oh I was going by the light on top of the boards. His came on first but you did get a faster time. I dont know how that works but it should say who won at the bottom of your slip.

 

His R/T was a little better than mine, so that did it.....

 

ooohh ok gotcha.

 

You should host those videos on www.streetfire.net I can never view videos from you tube.
