http://youtube.com/watch?v=NiWERS288qI , thats me runnin a 75 shot first time to the track with it. actually i finished installing the kit the night before like 3am in the morning and ran it the at 1pm. it went 13.3 105 u can see i didnt launch hard. i have really crappy tires. my other mods are nismo cai and nismo catback.

 

Nice. Get some more practice, and improve!

 

friday i should have my colder plugs wither or not im goin to the track friday night and im probably gonna drop my tire pressure and try launchin harder but im goin to a better track. thanks robbie

 

careful with the rev limiter. what parts do you have with the bottle?? window switch, bottle warmer.... and do you spray 1st gear or start to spray in 2nd?

 

i have a msd rpm activator and a dynotune wot switch i heat the bottle with a torch. my rpm activator is set at 3000 - 6200 and i spray threw all gears. and that run thats on youtube was done on fouled spark plugs and not a hard launch.

 

o yea the colder plugs ain't comming this week so im gonna chill out and go to the track next week. so i should have a better run next week without fouled plugs.

 

My advice to you for a better run:
-feather out the clutch more so you're not spinning/wheelhopping WHILE controlling your throttle off the line
-don't do "burnouts" on street tires; it's pointless
-1-2 shift needs work

On days when traction is an issue, I suggest spraying in 2nd gear and up. It sounds like you're launching too aggressive then feathering too much to compensate, which in turn is causing you to bog. Work on messing around with both of your feet and you'll see better results. Good to see somebody actually taking their NO2 350Z out to the track and showing real results.

105 trap for a 75 shot of nitrous is kind of weak though and the 13.3xx has much room for improvement. Keep at it.


edit - What were the conditions like (temp, humidity, pressure)? Also, what's your track elevation and can you post your 60'? I'm guessing you pulled about 2.1?

 

it was a 2.1 60. 1-2 shift was weak i was tryin to figure were to shift during that run lol bad time to. i finished installing the kit that morning so i never got to really practice other than hittin it on the street 3 in the morning to make sure its works. as for the burn out it was only to get the water and sand off the tires this track is really crappy and u have to go threw the water box or grass and sand. as for the temp humidity and pressure they dont put it on the time slip. but i know the temp was at least 100. the launch wasnt aggressive i launched at 3300. i was trappin a few runs at 106 but my guess is that i fouled some plugs out either the night before or the first few runs cause my car feels like crap. but next week im running at a better track rockingham and at night time and ill have my colder plugs in. ill be droppin my tire pressure and tryin to launch harder and feather the clutch out the hole. Thanks for the advice 3hree5ive0ero. o yea i ran a 13.9 at 100 before nitrous. ps this track is a lot slower then the track im use to racing on englishtown nj. a lot of other faster cars were having a problem on this track. its a slow and crappy track. lol they were having a car show the same time and there was not even 10 cars racing and they pretty much just dusted off the track before anybody ran lol.

 

how much time is a 75shot supposed to take off your 1/4 and how many mph should it add to your trap? Ive always heard that a 75shot is equal to about a second off your 1/4. Im just wondering because my bottle is in the mail and am curious as to how much it will help me.

 

idk but i ran a 13.9 at 100. and now i ran 13.3 at 105 with fouled plugs and not really launching. im hopin to hit in the 12s next week. even if i hit a 13.1 or 13.0 id be happy with the crappy tires and open diff. but i would think around a second for a 75 shot not to sure. but i took off .6 and added 5mph to my et

 

There's no such thing as "how much." There are way too many uncontrollable variables (weather climate, your car, fuel pressure, nitrous kit design, etc). On top of that, there are even more controllable variables (jet sizes, driver's skill level in launching/shifting, tires, weight, nitrous pressure, spray window, etc).

See what you can do without nitrous first. Only when you are competent enough to do well consistently on street tires, you should think about getting some mods (i.e., drag radials/slicks, nitrous, etc).

As I told the OP, his time is on the weak side and so is his trap. Generally, given that most of the variables are at optimum/highest state, you should see a ET that is almost a second faster and trap that is almost 10 mph greater.

 

wow sounds good, cant wait to see what it runs with a better launch and good plugs

 

thanks ill be posting a video probably friday night

 

sorry to steal the thread OP, but whats the deal with everyone wanting an lsd? i could see the use for track racing, but you want even distribution in drag racing. correct me if im wrong please, but if an lsd was better, wouldnt everyone want one for their dragsters?

 

Touch my body !

 

411z the reason u want an lsd for drag racing is because ur able to have more traction 2 wheels is better then on wheel. when u launch. u cant launch hard with an open diff cause all the power will go to one wheel and most likely loose traction. the lsd distributes power to each wheel = better traction

 

well i ran it tonite i ran the car and i ran a 13.2 at 106. i think i ran a 2.2 60ft i spun bad off the line but thats the best i ran so far. the track was real loose. but its all good. i think thats pretty good for now its only the 3rd time i ran it at the track the first time i ran a 13.9 pretty much stock. then put my 75 shot on and ran a 13.3 then tonite i ran a 13.2 i might run it one more time before drag radials. oh yea i just put some regular ngk plugs. my colder plugs still didnt arrive and my stock platinums electrode were starting to melt. and my two rear plugs had oil on them. no video my friend forgot the camera.

 

Lmfao. I was like wtf then watched the vid hahaha

 

Are you serious?

 

Haha seriously... What kind of dragstrip plays that kind of BS music???
