UPDATE:

I went to the track Thursday with the drag radials and the new clutch, no other changes. First run I missed a gear, which is very uncommon for me. I had high 12 second runs, getting a feel for the drag radials and how hard to launch on the next two runs. Then on the last run of the night.

R/T --------- 0.784
60' --------- 1.688
330' -------- 5.042
1/8 --------- 7.890
MPH -------- 88.97
1000' ------- 10.195
1/4 --------- 12.104
MPH -------- 114.86

Woot! Low 12s on just 3 bolt ons and drag radials! I knew it could be accomplished. The trap speed was there from the last time I ran the car. However, my 10 bolt is starting to make some whining. I think it's time for a replacement before I abuse the car again on drag radials. This is as fast as a full interior, fully loaded, M6 with T-tops will go with just bolt ons, in my opinion, as I drove the **** out of the car. I nailed all shifts points pretty good with the short shifting and the launch was excellent, in my opinion.

Next week I'm putting in the Moser to replace that crap 10 bolt. Along with it, is going to be a 150 shot. Should be fun!

Yup. It's knocking on 11s with just bolt ons as it sits. With the Moser and a 150 shot, 10s are a possibility, but not likely. We'll see, this car is running very strong and the compression is good. It should run very stout on a 150 shot. I installed the Moser and the 150 dry shot yesterday. I have not sprayed yet, as I'm waiting for tuning and nitrous fill-up. I'll be jumping to the 11 second thread next week.

I'm pretty sure it was around 3500-4000rpm range. I wasn't watching the tach, I usually just "feel" the cars traction.

I'm running 4.10s in the Moser now.

On a side note, this Moser feels alot different in the turns.

I post on there every now and then. Which of my cars do you want to get beat by, the Z28 or the 240SX?

Good luck man. My car stock was not impressive. I could only get a 13.5@104. It did have crappy tires and stuff, but I'm a good driver and that's the best I could get it stock. You're already running a 13.1, so you should be ahead of the game, but who knows. Maybe my cats or exhaust were clogged or something. There are so many factors that could contribute to average or worse stock times considering my driving. I gained 10mph in the trap and dropped 1.4 seconds from my 1/4 mile time with bolt ons, tuning, and free mods. I would say these cars really wake up when you mod them.

Well, my nitrous is on.

I just have to tune the thing. It might be too much Vtec for me.

Don't worry. I got the kit for cheap, just to throw it on and try it. It will be disabled when and if I decide to cam this car. However, with the 150 shot, look for me in the 11s forum soon.
