Default 14.3@98 - 03 Touring Basic Mods

Not the greatest times, but not shabby for the best out of 2 runs.

Specs that matter:
Stock 18" Touring wheels at 36psi (2 faults right there)
Greddy Evo2 Exhaust
Megan Racing Test Pipes
JWT Popcharger

Launched at 3000-3500 and did the 'ol slip out, drop the clutch, and pray. Both runs = great launch (when compared trying to launch a Turbo 4cyl).

Here are the Times:



RT - .142
60' - 2.172
330 - 6.194
1/8 - 9.446
MPH - 76.23
1000 - 12.194
1/4 - 14.511
MPH - 97.03




RT - .218
60' - 2.119
330 - 6.101
1/8 - 9.323
MPH - 76.98
1000 - 12.050
1/4 - 14.347
MPH - 97.91

Whata ya think?

What is your altitude? Your 60ft's could a improve to 2.0's but they are not bad. I think you need to work on your shifting some, even with a mid-high 2.1 60ft stock, I ran 13.80, actually that was my first run ever. Keep practicing you will get better.

Base on your 60' ft time and you hitting the 1/8 your shifting needs to be faster. With your 60' ft time you should of hit the 1/8 at 8.9-9.0 and quarter at 13.7-14 flat. Next time try catching your gear in lower rpm's like driving normal, instead of feathering your clutch or dumping and see how that works for you...Good Luck!

Those slips, increment by increment, closely match what the group (six Zs, two autos, four 6 speeds) of stock to lightly modded 350Zs are doing at my track in Kansas City.

Hey man I see your in Orlando.. did you go to bithlo's speed world?? Its a frigging ice rink there. 2.1 on street tires is quite good at that track trust me. However your trap's are low... I did 99 stock, modded slightly I did 100-101. The humid kills us here though.

My best is 2.087 at Bithlo **** track

14.1 though. That's with my 19" Volk wheels stock.

Let me mention best 350z time i saw at Bithlo was 13.9 and looked pretty stock to me but i never approached the guy.

The test pipes are awesome. The Greddy exhaust wasn't very noticible at idle until the test pipes were installed. Now it is simply awesome and the car screams!

not too bad for the current weather conditions at osw, last summer my gt was running mid 13's in this weather AFTER I added another +/-15 rwhp and dropped 40lbs so the HEAT and HUMIDITY kills it here, sometimes in the 2500'+ Density Altitude range. OSW is somewhat spotty for track prep, that is mainly due to the rain not letting any vht stay on the track. IF you want the best 60's at osw, you should drop your psi a little bit and do a nice 5 sec or so burnout to heat your street tires up. I would usually cut low 1.9s there no matter the track prep and a few of my buddies would regularly pull 1.8s on regular street tires.(of course this is in a stang, but rwd launching is all the same when it comes to these power levels)

good luck, I hope to be back out there around winter with whatever I end up buying....

You're 60' times are not shabby at all at Spin World.

You could definately get more out of her though. I ran a 14.1 stock with my 19" volks! Let me know next time you go.
