Thank you sir. The cressida has me ordering headers today... the heads/cam/manifold will come later... My goal is to break 450whp N/A by next hyperfest.

 

Give the guy a break. If it were me running him and he wasn't running at full potential the first race, then I wouldn't want to claim a win. Just saying. Not like the guy is trolling it up, the op would have called bs on him right away.

 

I assumed trubo spool. was a little less the second time... Once up on boost his car was back to even with me pretty quick and if he had taller gearing he would have passed me for sure. I could tell when he shifted and kept having to wait for power..

Now its headers(just ordered) and then later this year Z06 clutch/flywheel(ditch teh 50-60lbs stock flywheel).... should be a bit more potent like that..

God dayum money pits!

 

Thanks guys. I'll be lookin out for ya next year ha.

 

same here... Im waiting on funding for my NA build... nothing crazy but I think 450+ NA is a decent Daily driver...

 

went to Road America last weekend for the June Sprints and there was a CTS-V that stayed pretty well in the thick of it's class (loaded with 'vettes, camaros, Mustangs and so on). Only big issue with the caddy was brakes. That thing was HARD on its brakes and had to be bleed out after every race. But on the straights, it was a blast to watch. There was also a 350Z that struck me as the sleeper of the crowd - not a lot of flashy graphics or even a very loud exhaust, but it always did well in its group (top third at least, with I think one win during qualifying).

Good races guys. Keep 'em coming.

 

I have a friend with a cressida. He's working on rebuilding it now into some kind of hotrod.

 

Fixed for ya.

 

L92 head swap/big cam FTW.

 

Nice Kill..and the above would have netted a different outcome..

 

Those cressidas are very light. I would add nitrous to that list of mods.

 

@ biggie, I wanna run ur v before u mod it out to see where I stand with my header install

 

Goodf runs. We got soem 2JZ cars here..Some extreme some average. Never know what one you getting..HAHA

Nice CTS-V and nice 300

 

I see, thanks for the explanation. I for sure wasn't being a smartass, I was only wondering why you mentioned the first race didn't count. Understood.

willizm, as I mentioned above, I wasn't calling any type of BS on the guy when he said the first race didn't count. I was only curious why or how.

Anyways, nice races and nice to see drivers getting along and not flairing up BS excuses and smack talking. 300ZX is an awesome, desirable car and certainly a classic of a Nissan. As far as the CTS-V, how can you go wrong with that? Winning or loosing a race, at the end of the day your still driving a CTS-V. And thats a good thing.

 

lol

 

Gotcha, I shouldn't be so quick to judge others intentions when it's only text on the screen.

Sometimes I don't think it's right for some members to jump on others that are just sharing their side of the story. Lots of threads get ruined that way. Not saying you were, but you know how some of those threads get in this section.

 

Only reason i called him out is just because you are in the wrong gear and lose, doesnt mean you didnt lose. Not the other drivers fault you cant pick the right gear.

 

BTW you can add a chipped 335i(the twin turbo one before the single was introduced) to my FAIL column... Just a chip and I assume some exhaust work(resonators ermoved according to driver) and I got walked.

 

No biggy-I have seen cars like that run low 12s. Not fail on your part at all
