6000 no lift when i shift!



J/K
I launch arouns 3500 with some slippage i pulled 2.0 consitanly with bfr kdw2s
but now with the kds i cant seem to launch right it spins or even if it doesnt my best 60 foot was a 2.175

 

I never been to a track before. Went driving around last night and launch at 2500 thought it was pretty good. I also have 19 's C4's Racing hart.

 

damn what kind of tires do the 350zs come with on the 19s? cuz the stock tires on my G35 19s suck ***! I tried launching at 3k, 2500, 1500rpm at the track, slip my clutch, and I still spin as soon as im done feathering the clutch.

 

somewhere between 6 and 7000rpm's with mt et streets. i think my best 60 is a 1.69.

 

stock clutch, MT ets 4500-5000 1.7s, i will get 1.6s soon

 

how many of u have modified the clutch engagement point?

 

i like it high...

 

i do too and thats why i havent changed it yet, but i also find it kind of hard to feather with the stock setting. so im wonderin if other ppl have changed it for either reason.

 

woops, double post

 

Wow i didnt know all you guys launch from 4500-5000 thats seems crazy when i do that i just sit there and spin. I have 19's volks w/ t1rs i launch at about 2500 seems to work for me.

 

does anyone have a stillen sc set up? if so what do you launch at?

 

What air pressure are you running in your tires when you do these 3000rpm launchs? alberto? care to chime in?

 

26-28 somewhere around right there with the stock tires

 

i need to let alot of air out then

 

I actually went down to 16lbs on my potenza's and still spun lol...And I heated them up pretty good...2nd gear burnout...but then again...ive only been to the track once so what do i know

 

I have a stage 2, I posted earlier. But I don't have anything in my sig. I launch with drag radials 5000+ or I will baugh. On my 19's with toyo t1-r's I say 2000. or i will spin them all the way thru 3rd.

 

So when you launch at a higher rpm (4500-5000) should you dump the clutch completely? we're talking about a mostly stock set up here.

thanks

 

There is no reason to heat up regular street tires. A quick spin to get any debris off of them is all you need. A smokey burnout, although fun, only makes them greasier.

 

Anybody drive their Z's in the snow? I do with Blizzak LM-22's and with traction control on I can blow SUVs and semi's off the road. It's crazy when you are gonig around a turn and you feel like you are going to lose your rear end, the VDC kicks in and slops the slide. When you try to launch with the VDC on, you wanna talk about some bog down! You have to just take off slow and then let the tires catch and you can quickly move through the gears and next thing you know, you are 2,3,4,5 car lengths ahead of the car next to you with all-seasons.

 

what??
