Fuck it...... Throw a ls trans in and go for 220mph+

[gringotegra]

As of right now i am thinking of doing a Final Drive. That will give me 5mph in 5th gear which is huge.

Really even keeping it how it is right now and just revving it a little higher isn't scaring me at all.

LS trans in this car would suck donkey balls.


I might upgrade it to a GSR 5th gear which will also give it quite a few more MPH. But man i just love the gear split it currently has, and it works fucking great.

[n/a mike]

Ls would take forever to get up to that speed.
the video says rolling start, at what speed do you guys start at?

Slightly different rear tire size (narrower) would create less drag, also someone on facebook mentioned wheel covers.

[ratcityrex]

Lol i was just fucking around with suggesting the ls trans. Reving it out to 10200 and ls gearing would suck dick.... So go with bigger tires, final drive, and 5th gear? After watching how fast this thing rips through gears I bet you could easily break 190.

[gringotegra]

The wheel covers would be sick im all about those!

As far as the tire, yes i agree but the tires i have now are perfect and hook the power.


the car will go 190, just like it is i know it. Just needed another run lol

Come to San Diego, I have a few roads/hwy you could take runs down

Badass vid!

Totally worth the time to watch that.   Good shit.  Good luck next year.

What are the tranny ratios and tire OD?

You have any time/speed/gear plots?

With some aero tweaks and easy gearing tweaks...yeah easy.

Any class rules to deal with like ride height, air dam height, side skirt height?

One idea.....

[gringotegra]

Stock GSR 1-4th gear, ITR 5th gear with a 4.4 Final Drive..

tire size is 225/50/16 Toyo R888's in the front.

No class rules that i run in, thankfully!

Yes i would like to do a final drive... There is also talk, i want to go 200 now. lol

[ratcityrex]

Better put a chute on that fucker to keep it straight on the big end.

[crttaz]

Gear-X 4.058 FD, WPC treated.....dunno of Kiwi has a straight cut version

before 10,000 rpm = 197 mph
after 10,000 rpm = 213 mph

10,000 rpm vs 9230 rpm for 197 mph....

THAT will put you in the proper rpm range, just need to improve the aero to get there.

Start by closing off the grille some but also need to vent what air is making it through. Seem your belly pans might be trapping that air. From what you have posted ECT and IAT are not climbing during the run so you can afford to block off more, just how much?

Canards are not for ricers, they would help if done right on the front fenders, but so will lowering the spliter and side skirts.

With an A2W IC you can afford to close off more frontal area plus put the ice tank in the spare tire well as ballast to help keep the rear end down at speed.

Even just playing with the rake of the body can help with stability AND aero....

just thoughts for now

[rawr]

Remove the pin in your speedometer that your indicator rests on. This will allow your car to go even faster due to the speedometer not being blocked as it comes around the dial face. Trust me,  I do science.

this is the badest shit I have seen in awhile. trega threw down with vets and lambos in the 1/2 mile, I fucking love it.

I could add some information:

circle jerkers have lots of stupid aero tricks, the best are the giant slow plow noses. (maybe not the best idea in your case) the cars have no fans and a very small opening for the giant radiator behind it. it works by slowing the air down (small hole to big hole) and using the increase in pressure. generally you get a much better transfer delta from a radiator then from an intercooler, so the intercooler needs tones of air to get it to produce near ambient temps.

id say your better off with an air to water and making your radiator opening much smaller (think bottom of a cereal box) that's just a guess on my part) and then design the ducting right. there are tons of circle track articles that talk about doing this.

also what everyone else said "wheel covers, spoilers, etc."

dumb question:
why the hell are the side view mirrors still on the car, I would ditch that shit like jury duty.

and maybe consider (if you haven't already) a jumbo depends from your engine, I'm guessing at 180+ there are only bad options once your engine is blown and barfing oil everywhere.

regardless, I fucking love everything about this car.

one more completely rationale suggestion, steel bisi's pile of wheel spinning cum, force him to race you at gun point. then when he looses make him drink the sweet from your balls of solid fucking steel!

I fucking hate that guy.

[92CXyD]

I see on H-T you will be going to the event @ Colorado Springs Airport in late Jun.,

I'm trying to work out a plan to go and at least hangout done there for a day.

Thanks man!


I agree, i wish i could do some wheel covers but not sure if there are any out there that will work on my wheels.

I would like to so an Air to Water and close up the front end but i think i am going to do a 4.266 FD and upgrading to a 6466 turbo. Should make gobs of power .

Deff doing a wing and will be closing up some of the front end.

Colorado might be the best place i could take this car to go 190, Thinner air will hurt power, but up boost is easy! Thinner air means car goes faster!

[crttaz]

4.266 FD will require a different diff due to the ring gear bolt pattern.

Not if you get the M-factory one

[PhilStubbs]

Maybe I'm missing something, but to me, aero doesn't seem to be your problem. It's not like the car hits a wall and stops accelerating. I would think gearing and traction would be the direction to look

Aero isn't exactly the problem but doing a rear wing would help the car.

But yes more gearing would help, just pulled the trigger on a 4.267 M-Factory Final drive should be here next week.

Traction, kinda seems like im a the limit in 1-2-3rd but 4th and 5th both can benefit for some more power!

I will also be upgrading the turbo to a 6466. I kinda think this will be the winning combo.

[n/a mike]

Is it going to be ready for the Colorado event?

[gringotegra]

Is it going to be ready for the Colorado event?

I could go right now to the Colorado event and not change anything, so yes its ready but i will be doing some more stuff to it for that event.

It should be ready unless i break it before then lol

[gringotegra]

Here's a datalog from my 187mph pull. Hondata Traction control doing its thing pulling timing. Im pretty sure 4th gear was just a bump in the road.



Also, it was 80+ degrees out that day and IAT's went from 114 to 97 deg by the end of the run. Good FMIC FTW.

[PhilStubbs]

It's pretty cool to see temps drop. Most cars I tune stay the same or slightly increase. Nobody around here puts together a balanced turbo kit

Thanks runs on E98, which might help it a little but i am using the Stock IAT sensor in stock location..dont think the E98 would show lowering IAT's.. So i am not sure HOW accurate it is, ive been told they are a little slow at reacting but i could be wrong.

[PhilStubbs]

I could see that contributing to the coolant dropping temp.

I have heard the iat sensor being slow too. Next chance I get, I'm gonna test it with a heat gun. I could see it being a little slow being coated in plastic, but I doubt all that noticeable.

I wouldn't think the fuel would affect it that much unless the sensor was after the injector ?
