Smile went to track today.

It was a fun day and I wasn't actually going to run, we went there to check our new project car before starting to mod it the car is BNR34 GTR that had filter and cat back and that car went 12.3 that thing is freaking fast.

so, i wanted to check my 60' only and ended up ruining, my best run 13.1 @ 170kph (106mph) with 1.8 60', with the 2.73 and an almost full tank and my heavy *** in the car, and still managed to pass an LS1 camaro, and I'm really happy with that.

the excuses:

not tuned at all. (car is ruining rich)
suspension not setup at all.
full tank of fuel.
2.73 final drive ratio.
stock shift points (was hitting the limiter in every gear)
ZR1's.
i had a lot of extra weight in the car (food, drinks, cloths..etc) and didn't even bother to remove the spare tire and other ****.


with all that said, I'm not mad at all, next time I'm going to the track with the less than half tank of fuel (race gas), tuned, suspension set up properly, lighter wheels, back seats off.

and just for the recored the BBK 58mm TB craped out on me (whats new lol) and I installed the stock one back, hope fully i will fix the BBK or buy an as&m.

this Monday I'm taking the car to the dyno and will get it tuned by a professional.

hit me with your comments and idea's please.

Dude that's good, love your honesty about the "food, clothes, blah blah blah ...I still run mine on the track with a few hand tools, gotta cut that **** out though she's gotta get lean. Professional dyno-tune will make a big difference on your lt1.

thanks Bret, the car is going on diet from tomorrow, I will try to get anything useless out of the car, and hopefully dyno tune it Monday night and report to the forum with results.

Matts94Z28- told you it looks exactly the same haha, yeah is is lowred.

merv, they grip really nice, look very nice, but you will need all the BFH mod that you can do, i still take the wheels out and BFH new spots every few days, but if you dint take turns on a high speed like I do, you wont have such problems.
