You keeping your car.....??? You moved in your house??

 

Turbo and nitrous makes for a very interesting ride on street tires..

I wasn't dobuting you...that is a sick *** ride....look at that turbo...

 

damn, thats a nice ride man.

 

bigBri how much did the built motor and TT setup run you? I may be looking to head into the same direction as you without having boost set to generate 700hp....

 

I'd say at least 5k, possibly more

 

Sounds sick man keep it up

 

That at least got him part of the kit which is a steal

 

Then why did you roll your eyes???

 

I rolled my eyes about the whole fun doing burnouts at 100mph comment....With this much power i'd rather be gripping than spinning at 100mph...He has a sick car..that much power and that car isn't heavy....By the way I wish I could get a 1.7 60ft like you I'd be in the 10's..you have stock axles?? I know you have camber arms...

 

Amazing car. (that's an understatement)
Just curious: have you ever tried launching in 2nd gear?

 

ah, ok.

I have stock axles...and the 1.70 60' was on stock camber arms with 1.5 degrees negative camber per side. It should hook even better now that I have the camber zero'd out, but I haven't been back to the track.

 

Thanks man.. your car is pretty tight too.. Definately a lot better looking than mine.. I ended up parting the car out, after going through 3 gearboxes, 1 ring/pinion, and a set of axles. The car cut a 1.55 60ft on 34.5x9" slicks, but never got a full pass, because of traction issues, and broken driveline parts.

I'm actually building/restoring another S13 (89 Coupe) as we speak.. It will recieve a 4 liter (stroked) VQ, with cams/nitrous and all of the bolt on goodies. I'll have to post some pics as it progresses. Right now, it's stripped down to the bare chassis, being prepped for paint.

Anyway.. nice ride man..

Man thanks..You new project sounds like a beast..keep us updated..

 

what type of turbo kit do you have to pull that power

 

Thanks and I havn't should I try second....?

 

That's a good *** 60ft...stock camber and stock axles..good **** man...

 

I ask because I remember reading a magazine road test of an insanely high horsepower car where they couldn't launch with first gear at all, but launching in 2nd worked really well. It might be something to try since 1st just spins the wheels when you're on the gas.

 

I read that also I think it was a mosler car....

 

Yea, good memory...that's the one. Let us know if you try a 2nd gear launch... I think your horsepower to weight ratio is definitely higher than that car.
