Scottie-GNZ Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Way to go Scotty. Give us the details of the timeslip and what you did differently from the last trip to the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 Hey scottie my slip reads like this: 60' time is 1.913 5.555 8.648 80.047mph for 1/8 11.268 time for 1/8 and of course the et is 13.615 and mph was 101.122 The blanks next to the other times are there cuz our slips read I1,I2,I3 ect it doesn't read 60' or anything else.I richened up my feul mixture like i posted before and turned up the boost more like i posted i just finally got a chance to go to the track. It is running lean still i need bigger injectors do you have any or know where i can get some to fit the oem fuel rail?I put on the electric fan to cool the ic more but it ended up hurting me more than helping cuz it was taking so much power from the fuel pump it couldn't put out as much fuel as with it off.I met a nice guy at the track that was telling me about this thing used to make the alternator run full field at boost he said it was from the buick forum.He has a GN his self and was impressed with the performance of the zt.Do those things work?My alternator just sucks it's the stock one for the 76z and can't provide enough power so i'm planning for a better one.This winter i'm planning some stuff for the engine for upgrades and i should be able to get them by next summer and have them all installed.

scottyMIz Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 forgot to mention i'm still having traction problems i did those times with tire spin in first or the stock clutch slipping.The only time it slipped was after my burnout.The rest was tire spin i'd burn the clutch to take off but then i'd give it too much throttle and have the tires spinning thru the rest of first.Do you know of any place i can find four bolt rims that are 15x8?

Guest Anonymous Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 Lots of companys still sell 15x8 4 lug, usually double drilled. Centerline and Weld just to name two. Good luck, nice times, Lone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 I'm not expert at drag racing by any stretch... But an 11.268@80.477 (1/8mi) sounds really slow, yet you still pulled out a 13.615@101.132 (1/4mi)??? Am I totally out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 That's what the slip says i wrote down everything that was on the slip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 The slips given to us don't have anything listing the other numbers.Just like i said they have I1,I2,I3,I4 and the I4 is the time and it has a mph for the I4 time.They use to have it all listed but they got a new timer.

scottyMIz Posted August 13, 2001 Author Share Posted August 13, 2001 My bad i read it wrong the time for the 1/8th is 8.648 the mph is the same.I don't know what the 11.268 is for.You where right lonehdrider it was slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Bayley Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 Let's see, I'lve got my "Ubly" slip right here and that 11 second number appears to be to the 1000' mark. This is whay I've got: 60': 1.913 330': 5.555 1/8: 8.648 1/8: 80.047 mph 1000': 11.268 1/4: 13.615 1/4: 101.122 mph Very nice Scott! I bought a digital camera this past weekend and have been going nucking futs with pictures of the boat. Later this summer or early this fall I'd like to head up to Ubly and maybe run something (probably the Impala). I'd like to get a few more pictures of yousetup to add to your section of the page. I'm sure a lot of people are wondering just how quick something this simple can be. Good Job -Andy P.S. You Times should be updated by this afternoon. I also got a message from Lone Star 1 about with mid 12 second LS1 260Z. Expect to see his times up there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 14, 2001 Author Share Posted August 14, 2001 send me some updated pics of you boat that thing is sweet.I'm going for 12's or 11's by the end of next summer.This winter it's getting some more mods.Have fun on your vacation!

Drax240z Posted August 14, 2001 Share Posted August 14, 2001 Ah, thats better! I was thinking you hit the JATO rockets just after the 1/8mi with times like that. Scotty, thats a seriously quick car you've got going. How about giving us the rundown on it? Stock zxt engine at 14psi in a 280z? Any lightening done to the 280? Stock TB?

scottyMIz Posted August 14, 2001 Author Share Posted August 14, 2001 Hey drax it's just a 76 280z with a stock 81 zxt engine i put the 5 sp from my old 80 zx 2+2 in it no weight changes except for the front bumper.Acually that time slip was with a half tank of fuel and all my junk in the car.I have about 50 lbs of junk in the car including the spare tire.Anyone looking for 240 parts i have a bunch in my car.I took them off of my parts car and have no place to put them that's why i've been driving around with them.I sent a bunch of pics to andrew hopefully when he gets time he'll post them they are pics of my engine,ic and all that plus one of me doing a burnout at the competition. I posted the times on the mitsu page i've been talking to them about alot of stuff and one guy has replyed so far.It's weird cuz the car feels fast but to me 13's sound kinda slow but it really isn't slow.You guys should of seen it there was a zx2 out there running like 18's it was funny he'd even want to take it out there.I give him props for taking it out but it was funny especially against me.

Drax240z Posted August 14, 2001 Share Posted August 14, 2001 Well with a humble writup like that I can't imagine how I can not be in the low 13's when I get my car going... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 14, 2001 Author Share Posted August 14, 2001 from the discription of your car on your page it sounds like it probably could do it now.You have a very nice car i was drooling over it i need a body kit!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie-GNZ Posted August 14, 2001 Share Posted August 14, 2001 Scotty, cheapest, simplest option I know for an inj upgrade is the SVO 36# injs. I used those on my L28T and they should be good for up to 350RWHP. Go to the SVO or Merkur XR4Ti forums and post a wanted ad for injs. Make sure they are the 36# injs with he brown top. I have a how-to on my L28T page that shows how to make them fit the stock fuel rail. I have a pair of 15x8 wheels but they are 3.5" BS. If anyone wants them please get them out of my garage as I keep tripping over them and will never use them. They are mounted up with Firestone Firehawks 215/60s. If someone local wants them, come make me a ridiculous offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 14, 2001 Author Share Posted August 14, 2001 Thanks guys for all the help and good comments.I like this place better than zcar cuz everyone is nice to me and very patient.I also haven't seen any guys come and start talking crap about us(probably cuz they are scared of the hybridz).I'm constantly having to put up with a couple of guys on zcar talking crap about my times and my car pisses me right off.When i come here i get great advice and good manners from all of you.It's nice to feel like i have a place to go and get away from all the crap inthe world.

pparaska Posted August 14, 2001 Share Posted August 14, 2001 Ah, a happy HybridZ member. I feel warm all over, don't you . scottyMiz, it goes both ways - you are pleasant and mature in your posts and the membership reciprocates. Kind of like real life!

scottyMIz Posted August 14, 2001 Author Share Posted August 14, 2001 The car feels fast but like i said it doesn't sound fast compared to some of the members.It will get there though.I calculated and figured out that it cost me a wopping 500 bucks for the 13 second time.That's including the engine!Not bad for a car i bought for 1000bucks and only put 500 into the motor.I haven't found too many cars that will even race me they are all scard now that i raced that kid in the olds and spanked his car.He's telling everyone how fast my car is it's kinda nice but then not.I like to race just not in stupid places.The only thing in town that could take me is a 2002 vette man that car is nice but he's next There are some built cars really nice blown cars but they don't leave the garage unless it's a car show or something they are never at the track when i go.I can't wait til this weekend to see all the zs and to see how many cars will race on the way down.Win or loose it's still fun if done safely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted August 14, 2001 Share Posted August 14, 2001 Sounds like the best bang for the buck I've heard yet! There is nothing wrong with 13's. I'd be thrilled if I could get my 240 there...I'm still looking for a donor turbo car. When I built the motor for my Camaro in '88, almost NOBODY was in the 12's on the motor, much less who drove to the track, but admittedly, it doesn't sound as fast as it used to...
