ha Ha Thank guys...well if an extra 25 horses cant get me 2 hundreths of a second then i guess it wasnt meant to be. While were here I predict a 10.92 at 126MPH and a 6.90 1/8th at 103 or so...any takers??? Terry

One more day till the tens are history and car is put away!!!!!!!! CZ

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH LMAO...I know what you mean... Terry I have a 2+2 for sale, but I highly doubt you'd be interested -- I don't even want it. I can't STAND the way they look. WTF was Nissan thinking?

Hey guys its this coming Friday the 15th that I go out! My car is ready and I added an oil cooler to help with the heat. Mike thats great! Man are you gonna be excited when you go down the track! Did you fix the brake problem? 6 more days till D Day or 10-Day! Terry

Wow! I tested the 150 shot today on the back road and what a difference! I cant wait till Friday! More to come... Terry

Ugh....LS1????????????????? CZ

Thanks Guy! Welcome back. I know how you feel about not having Internet! Thanks for hosting the vids! Hopefully we can replace them with some 10 second runs next week! ZFAN hows the break in coming? Terry

Thanks guys. Maybe the link is dead now. Guy is gonna host it for me on friday. I also have a vid racing a Chevy truck 454 tubbed if anyone wants to see it. I got him at the end but it was a good race. The MOUSE wins again! Terry

Thanks guys and Scottie ur right. I started the night at 11.45 and almost gave up! Timing and driving will improve most ets! Terry

80LT1 you out there? Terry

Thanks Mat! I know I ran an 11.01 and was pissed...what s wrong with that scenerio!!!LOL. Ill get em next time out! Terry

Well I didnt kill myself...what a rush it is to spray a 125 shot... Guy I guess you jinxed me because heres what happened tonight. First I couldnt find the 150 shot pills so had to stay with 125. The warmer drained my battery but not before I got some good runs in. My first run was 11.45 so I retarded the timing a bit and ran a 11.25 just spraying in 2d and 3rd. I was hooking pretty good 1.6s all night mostly. Then i ran a 11.13 then decided to spray on the tail end of first just after the launch and ran a FRICKEN 11.01!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Its kinda funny though. If I could have hooked off the line I couldve ran a 10.99, however a 150 shot will make it right Im sure. Still no signs of any breakage. This little Z is holding together real good. Everybody loved the car tonight as I was the fastest there today. I beat another motorcycle...oops!!! Guy Ill send you the vid and you can here them announce my time at the end. I GOT A NEW SLIP to POST....OK the Friday after next Im gonna get a 10 sec slip! Like Scotty says....patience! Hope you guys enjoy the vid.....oh and you can delete the other two vids if ya want.. Oh here are the details: 60 footer 1.63 1/8th 7.03 at 98.65 1000 9.18 1/4 11.01 at 122.56 Terry

Im with Mike because my 240 weighing 2600 pounds way back when bone stock except for Alum intake, 750 Vac sec carb and block huggers ran a 13.7/9 all day with a flat tappet cam Comp XE262 at about 98 to 99MPH. Considering you have the same engine setup approx subtract about 1.5 tenths per every 100 pounds heavier it is than mine, Maybe only 1 tenth but just to be conservative and ull be close. If the ZX weighs 3000 lbs, I would say 5 to 6 tenths slower depending on launch etc. So 13.7 plus 6 tenths would be around 14.3 or so. If only 1 tenth per 100 lbs then 14.1 or so. This is just an example however. My car started life running a 14.30 with Comp Cams XE292 (Way to big for the heads I had) and stock convertor. With cam change and 2000 stall it went 13.7 best on SR torquer iron heads. Then I started learning about parts matching and I am where I am today..11.98 on Engine. Hope this helps.... Terry

Hey Bill! Im 3 1/2 hours south of Lubbock TX or about 4 hours west of San Antonio. I hope i DONT BLOW IT but it may be a learning experience if I do. Then I can join the club of blowing your engine....lol. Im convinced its the AFR heads that make it stout on my build. Terry

Thanks Mike...Im sooo glad ur car is back together! Thanks for the support but its not the same with NOS. Its like steroids for a competition. Ill be excited but not satisfied till I do it on engine alone. Can you imagine a skyline running a ten on just engine without turbos? Well it aint gonna happen....with that said its just a personal thing about doing it NA like your gonna do! So technically you will be the first!!!!!!!!! Im just gonna cheat a little....at any rate that HILL WILL BE TAKEN COMMANDER!!!! OOH RAHH!!!! Terry

Thanks Scottie! Will do. Pyro I ran an 11.9 with the 357 and low 1.6s all day long on engine alone. I ran an 11.4 spraying in 2d and 3rd. I really think I will only need 150 shot max. My suspension is really dialed in so no traction problems at all unless its cold out and I have only a half tank of gas...lol. My 11.4 pass was at 119.77 and another at 118.3. 45 more horse will def need the 150 shot. Ill keep track of what combos I use. More Saturday night! Terry

I got a better idea...save up and get a holley and be done with it. Id say a 750 Vac sec for street or a 750DP for all out power etc....You mount the carb turn the airbleeds out 3/4 to 1 full turn each and ur in business. The 3310 model is affordable and a good carb as well as the 4779C DP. CorZette

Thanks guys! On man will I be pissed with an 11.00...NOOOOO! Knowing my luck that will happen! I guess Ill take the 150 shot pills just incase! I hope the Diff doesnt break before a good pass. Ill get it on vid as well. Thanks guy for hosting! Terry

Well heres the deal. Im going back to Japan near Tokyo in July for three years so I am gonna try to break my car Saturday night. Well it will give the excuse to build my 385 Stroker. Anyways last track meeting I ran an 11.43 at 119.77 on a cold 100 shot, PSI was only 700 because my warmer was not working. I only hit the juice in second and third. REMEDY..... I went up to 125 shot and fixed my bottle warmer...nice and hot. I am gonna hit the juice in 2d and 3rd again on the warmed 125 for a base line and if Im not in the 10.9 range, Im gonna hit it midway thru 1st, then 2d and 3rd. Provided I dont break the diff pin I should be there. I figure 11.43 on a cold bottle was prob only a 75 shot at best. Any thoughts before this happens? My car will be put away for 3 to 5 years so I need to leave with a 10 sec slip!!!! Terry

Man am I late or what? Ok I feel better now....thanks! CZ

Why did I lose like half of my posts? Im only at like 433 or so...used to be almost 700..............

Mike thats great! I cant wait to hear the times. hey do u have any vids u can share? If so just EMail it to me. Id like to see ur car run. Good luck on the brake install! Remember to cross the cables to the opposite sides! Terry

Here ya go Mike... http://zhome.com/ZCMnL/tech/Calipers/zbrakeupgrade.htm Terry

Mike I did it and it works fine. Let me see if I can find some info for you. Terry

Thanks Hanns .....its just silly. If I can get a steel pin fabbed to replace the one in these diffs I will never go LSD! Dont need to! Out.... TB
