scottyMIz Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 hey guys i just wanted to post what happend tonight.I don't get many races my car has a bit of a rep here in town.Well we went to a town close for a burn out contest i didn't enter afraid to break the rear or wear out my tires.Well after the contest they said it was ok to burn out more so i pull thru and say what the heck and let her eat i sit there for a bit and then let off with the bov going pshhhhhhh.The people where like ohhhhhhhh and i roll off.Some red neck says to me you broke something and i say nope it's the bov it suppose to do that.I roll on and wait for my friends getting complements from the young crowd and looks from the older people.One of my friends i haven't seen for a bit was in the contest and has a 5.0 really nice looking car with nos dunno if it has anything else.Well anyway i'm getting ready to leave and i see him parked at a house so i turn back to talk to him and he's already going out of town too so i turn again to catch him.He pulled down a side road and we talk i was wondering where he was going and he said he didn't know yet i said ok.he asked wanna run em? i said sure i'll try so we turn around on the road we are on and get ready making sure no one was coming we line up.My friend jd lined us up and says go.We both take off squealing and i pull out front as soon as i get traction and just keep on pulling.Jd said there was flames shooting out the exhaust between shifts.i get to about 110 or so and back off with him about 10 lengths behind more.I was like whooooohoooooo That was my first race of the year on the street and yes we made sure it was as safe as it could possibly be.

Drax240z Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Yeah... how do you like the new turbo? Got any more pictures of your car? The ones in your profile seem to be the wrong height:width ratio and are kinda smallish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 16, 2003 Author Share Posted August 16, 2003 the new turbo is great it's a t3/t4e with a .70a/r on the compressor 60-1 wheel and a stock clipped exhaust wheel and housing.I have pics alot of it on zdriver here is the link http://zdriver.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=2171&thumb=1 if those are too small i an email some:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Those pics are a bit bigger. Looking sweet. Specifically, how does the turbo you are using compare with the stock one for spoolup, midrange torque, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 I got one up on you Scotty in terms of tonights street race updates. Not going to name any names, dont want to get any members upset. Involves a Turbo75, and a certain JTR California Exempt model car with 5.7 liter and 250-300weight advantage. Good race though, I always lose to the N20 guys. Man your pumping some major boost if youre beating a N20 5.0 that hard. That turbo must spool up pretty dang fast with the stock turbine, thats a good combo with that .70ar. When does Haltec come into play?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Gad Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Hey Scotty, any chance on you making the trek down to SEZ3 Sept 14th?? I'd love to check out your car (it's come a long way) and it'd be kool to put a name w/ a face as well excellent story !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 18, 2003 Author Share Posted August 18, 2003 Thanks guys it does spool fast and hauls ass I won't make it to the z meet wish i could.It is a long trip and i'd like to have my friend go with me to be a ride just incase either of us have a break down.Yes fl327 i am going ot get the haltech but i don't know when.Have to fill me in on your race always good to hear another ya drax it spools nice starts at about 2500 and is at full at about 3k or so it's hard to watch the tach boost and the road The mid range is great i love the way this turbo hits it's like all of a sudden.The stock efi is totally maxxed out but it seems to run nice as far as i can tell.I need to get rid of that afm cuz when i rev it up and watch the afm it sucks in and then popps back out when i let off the throttle it is one major restriction.So when i can get the cash i'm gonna get the haltech......... hey i'll take donations the help scotty get a haltech fund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest comeandzpa Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Scotty, I was lookin at your pics on Zdriver. First of all, you have a really nice car. Second, how did you do your interior? I like the body-color inserts on the seats and dash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyMIz Posted August 19, 2003 Author Share Posted August 19, 2003 I had a friend who owed me a bunch of favors do it for me he's an interior guy.He did a very nice job it had some flaws and he took the seats apart and fixed everything to make them perfect.I picked out the interior color before i did the paint.I actually took a paint chip book and matched the interior and thanks for the complements all of you.Makes you feel good when others like all the time and effort you put into your car.
