hey guys i recently bought a 2001 SE 5 speed.... the only thing it has is a brop in k&n and a B&M short throw shifter.. they were on the car when i bought it.... i left the spare tire and jack in there....... my first run was: 8:33 73 degrees
R/T........ .167
60'......... 2.386
330........ 6.637
1/8........ 10.104
MPH....... 70.56
1000...... 13.097
1/4........ 15.639
MPH....... 88.96


my second run: 9:56 P.M. 70 degrees

R/T........ .365
60'......... 2.411
330........ 6.621
1/8........ 10.081
MPH....... 70.52
1000...... 13.074
1/4........ 15.613
MPH....... 89.05


the car has 77k miles on it and i think the origional clutch...... i just would like to know if i did ok, i thought these cars ran high 14's to low 15's..... but remember i have cali spec also.....

 

i cant say im up on the 5th Gen 00-01 stock times, but you could try looking in the timeslips database and see what you can come up with to compare times.

since its a new car, maybe check the ks, and check to see if your running correct spark plugs, of course run 93 octane. Then there is the VIAS check to make sure its activating.

Other than that with a bit more practice you might could lower the 60 foot a bit but still probably not looking at a 14.9x

do you have stock wheels or something aftermarket and larger ?

nice runs though !

 

Ya somethings wrong with the car/ your 60's

 

I got 2.440 60' in my 01 auto. They seem ok to me. well the rest is as follows

.2702 reaction
2.4408 60'
9.72 et @ 594ft
10.37 1/8mile et
69.24 1/8 mile mph
15.99 1/4mile mph
87.07 1/4 mile mph

I still had spare tire and some other stuff in the trunk, next week i wan going to clean every thing out and shoot for 15.8 or so. Wish me luck guys.

 

work on your 60ft. 2.4 is not good by any means. If you can get it down to the 2.2 range you should be much closer to low 15's. perhaps 15.2.

Also check to make sure your VIAS is working, your traps seem low. use the search function at the top and check the FAQ it shows how to check VIAS operation.

 

Ya, you should trap 99 or 98. Pull a 2.2 60' and youll be in the 14s

 

You should be trapping at least 90 mph, no matter what your 60' is. Check your power valve. Chances are its not functioning. When I ran my dads 96 auto years back it went 15.7@87 basically stock.

 

lol theres no way in hell a basically stock 5th gen 5spd is gunna trap even close to 98-99mph. hes gunna need all the bolt ons to start trapping 99, because trapping 99 for maximas seems to be knockin on the doors of low 14's. seems maximas trap low compared to other cars out there.

 

He is not but he should be atleast trapping 90-93mph my stock 99 5mt trapped 92mph consistenly.

 

sorry to say this, but 2.44 60's are not good. you are either launching to soft or spinning. you should be able to manage a 2.2x 60' with that auto, especially since you dont have that much torque to deal with. get some practice and try again.

to the OP: your 60's are also pretty high, with a low trap. tho 60' isnt terrible though and you can probly get it down without too much work. as for the trap, check your motor to make sure it is perfect since you ought to be trapping 90's, maybe 93.

 

W/ a DEK?

 

yeah with a good driver. even a stock civic can pull 2.2 60's with a good driver. i was thinking 2.29's but thats still a 2.2x

 

this is actually the first time i launched the car hard...... the first time i launched at 2000 RPM... the second i did it at 4000 but then i just mashed the pedal down and spun all through first..... but it just kept pulling while spinning.... i might go in another week and try again....

 

my bad, missed his mods, and i mis typed

 

W/ a DEK 4AT, since the OP is 4AT,

 

i know this, auto just means easier to launch.

 

You have little to no experience with VQ30DE/DEK 4AT's, so unless you can find in the database a timeslip to prove me wrong, I will continue to argue this point.

 

That's exactly what I was thinking.


Unless you have experience with a particular vehicle/setup you should be a little more selective with what you post. My best 60' foot time with my stock '99 auto was a 2.3. 2.2 60' in a basically stock '01 auto (which is about 100+ pounds heavier at least) is IMPOSSIBLE with no weight reduction. Good 60' times aren't just about traction, they're also about torque. A stock auto 3.0 just doesn't have enough of the latter for sub 2.3 60'.


This is all anyway. The OP has a 5MT.

 

I would say low 15,s for a good driver with that car. The trap seems to be off! But by no means will he trap 98-99 with a stock car or with them mods. Work on your 60ft and check your vias. If that pans out and dont think your clutch is sliping check compression and knock sensor.
I trapped 100-101 with my N/A dek power 4th gen. But that was with a lighter car ,full exhaust,pulley,intake,spec stage 3 clutch, ypipe,eu with advanced timing and good 13.5 airfuel. witch put me in the high 13's low 14's

 

i used to run with my buddy's 01 at kcir, he ran the exact same as u did, he has cai and 18 inch wheels
