+1 Dyno number mean jack , Its how you put it down at the track. 12.5@115 on 275/35/19 toyo T1Rs last sunday on crappy track. Can't wait to run it on 11PSI tune, and some DR's.

 

Does anyone have thier stock wheels I can use for two days, will pay $50 for use of tires and wheels. I just sold my heavy Volk GT-C's, and the TE 37 Time Attack wheels will not be here till the 22nd + or - 2 or three days for customs. I need to get down to Sharif's this weekend to make this happen. Someone help a brother out. Anyone???

 

115mph trap is not "proving" 450+whp. Regardless of wheel spin/ET you should be 118+traps. Chances are with DR's your trap will decrease slightly...although this is not always the case.

 

I agree.. My car weight is 3420 with out me in it so it is a little on the heavy side. I have trapped 117 with a 12.7. My 60ft suck 1.9 to 2.2. So someone more skill full than I can surely make this car performe a bit better.

 

450whp is probably more like a 118mph-119mph trap speed..maybe more depending on the dyno and the track.

 

Well weight explains it, thats pretty damn heavy Im 3125 when I race. A 1.9 60ft is decent, especially for street tires, for what its worth Ive gone 11's with a weak sauce 60ft like that. Im sure you will do better with traction, once dialed in with some tire you should see huge improvements.

 

Nice job Sharif, beautiful Z (love that bumper).

 

ive got some oem 17"s you can use to get down to sharifs if you can pick them up and drop them off again.

 

I had trap speeds of 118mph with a 430whp tune on et streets at 515whp he should be around 125 mph shouldn't he?

 

We were making 445"corrected" DD numbers with our stock motor car, and he trapped 117 on average.
515whp depending on vehicle weight, regardless of traction should trap in the area of 123 ish..
If the thread starter is making 450 UNCORRECTED DD HP then his actual HP is closer to 508, in which case his traps should NEVER be below 121mph on an average vehicle weight plus driver.

 

You are correct..and Joe is a pretty good drag racer. Joe...show them what you can do. He did 118-119mph, IIRC with 425whp on our dyno. Left with 453whp, so there should be a nice bump in trap speed.

 

So based on that, he would be maiking around 510 whp on a Dyno jet. Based on personal experiences and HP to weight calculations if his car weighs 3440 and he is an average male at 160lbs, we can say the vehicle weight would be 3600lbs or so.he should see 122mph trap speeds..Thts haulin ***.. I just wish our cars were lighter, I would see the old Z32's trap 123 and run mid 10's on DR's...Sick..

Well, I weigh 215lbs and have a very small stereo setup in the car... Also have added some rotating mass with the Wilwood BBK... I think I can get her to go in the 120+ range, just not sure how much more. I will see if I can get the car weighed at the same time I do the dyno on a dynojet. The last time I ran at the track it was a 12.532 @ 117.94mph... That was with 426.8 hp before the new mods.

It is test and tune night at Indianapolis Raceway Park on Tuesdays, so as long as the rain holds out I should get some numbers for you all tomorrow!

 

Sharif looks like it on! KTAYLOR is going to save the day, and lend me his wheels.

 

good luck, just don't waste your time on street tires...run at least dr's

 

sweet ride man, i love the yellow Zs, how come they are so rare?!

 

Not sure on that one, but that is why I got mine...

 

so you are selling your TN kit... you going TT? or going back to N/A?

 

Joe-any track times man? Spill the beans...

 

I just spoke to Joe, and he was too tired to go last night. He said he will go next Tues.

Commmonnn...we all need to egg him on to make sure he goes! Go Joe!
