My car & me having fun in it!!

nice video. was that the same CRX on the drag stip as was on the road course? I like that last shot from above the car... Nice.

 

very slick looking Z you got there! You have an idea what the HP is?

Allen

 

Yes that is a buddy of mine. His CRX runs mid 13s at the drags & kicks *** on a road course. He has 217 whp & weighs in at 1900lbs.

I dynoed at 330 whp & 409 wheel torque with a 4 lb boost leak & 2.5" cat back choking my ride. I ahve since put on a 3" cat back to match my 3" down pipe & test pipe and have fixed my boost leak. It hauls!

 

that is one sweet vid. and your z is sexy, it has always been one of my favorite z31's in the looks dept. that kaminari spoiler is, IMO, the best aftermarket one for the z31.

 

great looking Z31 and it looks to be a very quick car. What are you running in the 1/4? (sounds so F&F...doh!)

 

at least you didnt ask about NAAAAAWWWWSSSS

 

I loved the music was it the new kittie??? Oh yeah the video was nice too.

 

Very nice Z, very nice video. Looks mean.

 

an sr20 would pull a premium! Well, that and some overnight parts from Japan.

 

Nothing like an SR20 swap into a Honda, lol.

 

^ it's not as far fetched as it may seem since the SR did come in fwd format in quite a few Nissans (not so many stateside though).

 

.... thanks for reading too far in....

 

I always do

 

awesome Z, i just got a 87 300 turbo yesterday. I wish it was anything close to yours.

 

Wow I've been away for a while. Best 1/4 mile time was 13.3 @ 106mph in the Vegas 105+ degree heat with a 4lb boost leak & 2.5" cat back. I have since gotten a 3" cat back (to go along with the 3" down pipe & test pipe I already have) and have gotten rid of my boost leak. I am putting in a plenum spacer soon & then hope to get to the dyno & track again for new numbers.

Song is I'm So Sick from FlyLeaf. Another buddy of mine is making a new video for me. I'm gonna mix a couple of songs together for it.

My car is in the MSA (Motorsport Auto) Z car calendar - October. My car will then be in the Nissan Sport Magazine in the spring.

 

man that post is really late, like two or so months..lol. that car is hella nice, lovin it. And to me that 1/4 time is kinda slow w/300hp hmm, prob. the leak and heat.

 

Naw... not really. I have about 270whp and I was runnin 14.4 @ 98mph (partially due to no traction). It takes a lot of power to get to the low 13's. My buddy's 360whp C5 Vette ran 13.1 @ about 112mph (see video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...ismopick&hl=en ) Of coure the Vette is also heavier than the Z31.

 

yeah but i think our prob. is the high altitude but no traction is also a prob. Especially w/ the stock rims/tires. In ca my friend has a 67 chevelle, w/ like 290 hp, and is heavy as hell, ran like 13.8 or some thing, maybe like low 14's. hmm, i'm gonna have to go to the drag before the ecu swap and see what i gain.

 

Better late than never, right?

Anywayzzzzz......My boost would come on & peak at 18lbs but fade off to 12ish right away. So my peak whp was 330 but it fell off sharply after that. With my mods list 330whp is a little low as well. That's why I'm itching to get back to the dyno & track to see the improvements. Not to mention that I am running 21lbs of boost now. Should make for some good numbers. I don't have traction issues at the drags as I have already pulled 1.8 & 1.9 sec. 60' times. I'm also putting on coilovers soon so that should help even more with the launch. Can't wait!!

 

traction is the biggest problem im sure.. even at high altitude it is turbo charged isnt it nismo? so thinner air is slightly less HP robbing with a turbo... thats why the turbo and supercharge high altitude airplanes that use reciprocating motors... thinner air...

 

dam boostin that sob, ain't you. dam that cars going to be bad when it's all set up. man i wish i had some money, i have a friend w/ a vette' that brags too much. Very nice indeed. and yes sno, she's gotta be a turbo, running them numbers.

 

Indeed. Altitude really affects n/a cars. Forced induction cars are still affected, but not as much.

 

I can attest to altitude sapping power. Guys here in Vegas take their cars to Cali. & take 1/2 a sec off their 1/4 mile times. Lower altitude there.

 

i was talkin to nismo... lol.. he got it.. sorry aboot the confusion i knew the z31 was with the SSQV i heard.. was it teh HKS SSQVBOV i heard?? what it sounds like
