Corzette Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Ran last night and finally got her into the elevens with the 350. Still only engine no NOS. NOT LOCKED IN THIRD Quarter 11.98 @ 110.94 Eighth 7.58 @ 89.33 60 Foot 1.64 DIDnt run in lock mode but tested MPH and ran 112.76 vs 110.94 Locked on a 3500 stall. NOS (Very Weird) 100 shot 11.90 at 117 havent figured it out yet I guess. Had problems launching after the 11.98 pass without NOS. Track was getting worse each run. I still have a better launch in there cuz I was launching at 2100 brake stall. It will stall to 2500 so maybe a 1.59 is possible with good track conditions. I gotta get to Ennis!!!! One step at a time. I know what Scotty means by tuning tuning tuning. The suspension tuning is just as important! Ok now what????? 11.8s of coarse!

datsunlover Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Very cool man. I had a friend over a few days ago wondering how old Z's did with V8's down the 1/4 mile.

Guest Magnum Rockwilder Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Great ET, but I can't figure out why the traps are so low. I guess the car has great traction but not a lot of sheer acceleration. Most cars would be in the high 12's with 110mph traps. Way to get the most out of your setup!

Corzette Posted March 6, 2005 Author Share Posted March 6, 2005 Hell I was running 12.3s at 114 with the 2500 stall. After changing to this 3500 stall Im quicker and slower...lol. Its an EDGE convertor. Best investment Ive made so far. If anyone can host a vid I can post my 11.9 run. BTW Im also running a 411 rear, that cuts the MPH down a bit too I expect. Im going 370s after I can find some axles off a 1988 300ZX. I have a 370 Viscous LSD, just need axles. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Meister Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Congratulations for getting into the 11's. But did you notice that the quicker the Z runs the faster you want to go!!! When you reach that point, throw on a turbo or two.:D Hanns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stony Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 You should post those on zeroyon. may impress some of the non believers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corzette Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 Theyll learn once they get back. We all get lost in the moment over there. Hell I was racing in 1982 with a L28 and Mikunis and thought I was the fastest car ever....Little did I know. It doesnt matter what engine your runing anyway, its all about money. If ya got deep enough pockets you can always be faster. I think Im gonna go with Turbo Meiser;s idea and twin an 8.... CZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corzette Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 I was just thinking if the rice crowd wanted to be impresed they should take a gander at JapTin or Ron Jones N/A Zs. Thats some fast stuff.... I wonder what a turbo or two would be like there....lol. The combinations are endless. CZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
