Default SRZ vs Procharged WS6

Not sure on the setups but it's a pretty sweet race!

Thanks for the edit, Ju1ce!

That race is took place last year and is me vs NXPRSS from about a 35 mph roll. My car was heads/cam/100 shot at the time and his car is cammed with a D1 Procharger. We did 3 runs that day, but the other 2 have been posted up previously.

I always hear people saying they can hear when cars spray, but I cannot pick out the sound for the life of me. I may have heard a little bit iof it for a split second, but I doubt it. No idea what I'm looking for

I was going to say, you told me it wouldn't be up and running just yet. Can't wait til that bitch gets back on the road. Sounds like a powershift at 0:15.

Shouldn't be long now. I finally got off my *** and got some good work in on the car the past few days.

FAST 90/90 (hopefully I'm not one of the people that loses power from this mod)


Rebuild my Eaton Posi (ditching the spool)


New axle bearings and extended ARP wheel studs


I also removed the nitrous for now as I need a 90mm nitrous plate for the new intake and I want to totally redo the system. Should be a good mid summer project.

Thanks guys!

NightmareTA, looks like it's coming along nicely

The spool was the worst thing I did to my car. It caused the drag radials to get all torn up and once they were then the car wouldn't hook. It ended up causing more traction problems than it helped. I'm guessing it would work better with a set of DOT slicks instead of radials.

You have to change your driving habbits with the spool. My DRs have alittle bit of wear on them on the outside more but nothing at all to worry about. Let off the gas going around a turn and if you need to use throttle take your time. I daily drove my spool and LOVED it. I can see where its not for everyone but I'm that idiot that would rather have that little more performance over comfort. I gotta keep staying away from this with the Integra. *cough* wife *cough*

Oh Ron, I'm about to send you a pic...

There is really no way to get in and out of my parking space without jumping the back of the car around like crazy and if I didn't give it gas then the car just wouldn't move. If I did a big burnout they would clean up ok, but after my next sharp turn down the next street they'd be **** again. It sucks punching the gas at 40 mph and thinking your clutch is slipping because the tires are spinning so bad.

I also find it hilarious that people told me I'd barely even notice that the spool was in there when they were talking me into installing it. I didn't move the car 10 feet right after and was like WTF!?

I installed it then had the wheels turned alittle and couldn't get the car to move like normal and I thought the brakes were semi locked up.

Haha, that's awesome I could see that. It was really fun pushing the car the last time the rear broke!
