1:51.0 unofficial (phone) timed lap at the new DDT. A faster time will definitely be put down once I swap out these 19" heavy *** Varrstoens with stretched tires, and fit some nice sticky tires with rpf1's.
Haven't heard from Speedstar about what the issue is yet. Sounded like a valve or valve spring. A metallic clicking starting that was RPM dependant. Not what you want to hear.
Hopefully the shop will let me know in the next few days what I am in for. (Fingers crossed!)
Bottom end is pooched. That's the bad news. The good news is that I have this coming: http://www.importpartspro.com/st2vqloblni3.html. At the advice if the builder, I chose the JWT C2 cam.
More boost is on the way. Delivery time is about 5 weeks.
that was an interesting day. the weather turned out very good and was able to pull an under 2min time lol. using my non-sophiticated method, a friend stood at the start line and used their phone to record my best time of 1:37.7
definitely alot of room for improvement and maybe time for some mods. the car is pretty much stock except for nismo cai and is running pilot sport as3.
hey hey .. thats not cool ... I rounded my result in 2012 to the higher tenth digit 1:20.8x to 1:20.9
heheh im not surprise because the 370z are slow and a bunch of issue on a thigh track.
7at that gets sloggish and fuel starvation that is a known issues on high G right hander.
but yeah 1:20.85 is a good time with street tire !
My as3's and stock 03 brakes are definitely holding me back now
I just don't think so man.
If the GPS data you've posted is accurate your apex speeds are still very low.
Improving your brakes will improve your fade resistance more than your lap time. I wish I could help you in person sometime.
I can see a lot of areas for improvement without any modifications.
I'd try and get it down to a 1:27 without changing anything else.
Took the car to CMP (Calabogie Motorsports Park) past weekend.
2:28.02 on pretty shot BFG Rivals ended up cording the fronts after a dozen laps.
Car has Eibach Sportline Springs with Eibach Anti Roll Kit, front upper arm, aftermarket rear arms, hawk hp+ pads and Injen cat back.
Previous owner ran staggered tires, 255 in the rear and 225's in the front, will switch to a square setup next year and fix the alignment issues, will easily be able to get a better time.
Pretty please with the car though, except the lsd seems a little loose, need a better one of those too.
