No more racing... I just got done pulling out all the E-Manage stuff, and taking the fuel system and plenum off the motor.

I am working on the complete install of the FCON V-Pro EMS and HKS 1000cc fuel injectors.

Lets hope I get this car boosting again within a week. Tuning the standalone that we have never used will take time.

Gotta build a basemap to break in the new motor on. After the car runs again it should be fully prepared for the new motor when it comes to fuel supply and tunability... just needs the engine and big power is mine. I have been thinking about taking the stock motor to 10-11 psi for a few passes at the track

How do you think a TT Z will match up to a Supra in a highway race??

 

Awesome....good luck with the EMS....I'm very interested to see the results.

 

i think if they were both equal HP i think the Z would definately take the supra out lets say 600rwhp for both and the Z would edge it out on the highway.

 

Good **** Phunk! I think I'll be building the block in my Z over the winter. I think it's about time to sell my other car and focus on the Z.

 

New engine to come.. Is what read in your post..

But but,,, 10 to 11 PSI on the stock rod's - Please go rich on the EMS... Initialy.. At least.. - Scarey Scary..

Your Core ( existing Block ) can be re-vamped with a different Compression.. for more fun and games...

Please keep us posted on the FCON V-Pro EMS work...

As it seems you have mastered the E-Manage.. Please give us pro's and Cons using the FCON V EMS... a Blow by blow is fine..

We sit in awe.. at your Pioneering Spirit... ( arrow in back and all that )

Cheers Amy -

 

How do you figure that? Better aerodynamics? Gearing? Weight is also less of a factor at higher speeds.

 

I believe weight does have something to do with it, the Z will defininately get to its top speed sooner than a supra will, being they are setup somewhat similiar power. The Supra will have to carry its weight by over 200lbs while accelerating. I think the major role player is the aerodynamics, even though the Supra has good aero i think the Z is streamlined better than the Supra.

 

i don't know, those Supras seem unbeatable in high speed highway races...

 

holy Carp what's you mod list? hahahahahahahahah JEez those tires must be hella grippy, are they bfg drag radials, ok must get, hahahah. did you put the drag radials on the stock rim's do you have a whole new set of rims for the Bf 's, including front, or do you have two sets of rear rims that look exactly the same, one ithe srag radials, the other without.

 

uhh the Z is way newer, it definetly wil have a higher tip speed trust me, just get an ecu reprogram, I bet charles's car can hit 180 with ease on the track!

 

orange peel: There are the 19" Volks for every day... and a set of just rear 18" 5Zigen FN01RC with the drag radials. They look nothing alike, and the 18's are bronze.

They pretty much are for now..but remember most of all the supras i have seen are modded. And the majority have way over 500rwhp and up with single turbo setup.
You get me a stock or a BPU+++ (about 460rwhp) Supra and a Greddy Z with about the same power and i will guarantee that the Z will pull on the Supra. That would be a great race..

Orange Peel:
Doesnt matter if the car is newer, and has to also do with gearing, the Supra V160 tranny has a great ratio and is pretty much bulletproof (can handle over 1100rwhp on the stock tranny). the stock gears in the Supra can carry you to 220mph if you have the cojones..there are many guys that have taken there supra to 200mph...
A couple of months Ago there was a guy with a Camaro with 514ci pushing 1300rwhp that wanted to who wanted to race a 1200rwp Supra from 100mph-200mph never got around to see if they raced..i will find out though..

 

wow charles... i really need to find u guys... even though im young (17) and have a slow Z... but i would love to see your car... i live in barrington about 10 min. away from schamburg...
