My first time at the strip

[snowman95]

Well i had a fkn great time, got in heaps of runs, met a few new people, my best run for the night was

1/4 MILE 15.257
TRAP 92.11
RT 0.241
60' 2.456
330' 6.561
660' 9.922
660' SPEED 119.53 KPH
1000' 12.803

Track temp was 30.1oC
Ambient temp was 26.2oC

Pretty happy for my first time at drag racing, I think I could have dropped into the very high 14's possibly very low 15's, given a few more runs... dropping my tyre pressure from 44psi :thumbdwn: :thumbdwn: :thumbdwn: to ~34 psi knocked .350 off my time...I think if i dropped it further to ~27-28 psi I would get very close to high 14's... ah well next time

stopped my runs at 6 cause all the wheelhop from my first few runs at 44psi shook a few bolts out and detached the cat from the header

ah well easy fix...actually I probably should have run, I guess it would have been running open header

95 vtir, mods: intake, extractor, 2.5inch exhaust and hiflow cat

Nice ...

One Q. I have to ask, how come some places have reaction time that starts from 0.400 and some 0.500.. your RT of 0.241 seems to state that it starts from 0.0?

Anyway... Good time!

[snowman95]

Im not sure to be honest man, at first (from what i heard) a ET of .500 was the closest you could get to being perfect, but OBVIOUSLY ET is based off a 0.00 time here...I dont know man, maybe a more seasoned drag person could enlighten us

[egSi]

nice effort mr snow. let see some drag pics :D

[wynode]

Nice time!

No update your details in the timeslip database (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/timeslips.php?) :)

[Hondavirgin]

nice run, out of curiosity, what pressure were your tyres when cool down to have a hot pressure of 34psi? (if you measured it) coz i got major axle tramp as well when i was down the kwinana and got a 15.179.

Like you i reckon if i could knock out the problems i could run a high 14.

[tinkerbell]

i think diff tracks do diff ways of RT timing. doesnt affect your ET though.

GREAT times there! get some 15's with 205/60 tyres and drop em to 25psi, your 60ft will be about 0.2 better and your ET will be in the high 14's (IMO)

BTW - is it the JDM 4-1 extractors?

and which track???

reaction time got nothing to do with your ET
you can stay on staging line for 20 sec and it doesnt count until your car starts to move from it

the first 3 runs, tyre pressure was 44psi (from the road in straight onto the track) (44psi measured on a tyre gauge), after the 3rd run not hooking up in 1st and shaking the shite outta the gearbox and everything else, dropped the pressure to 32-34 psi (using the tyre pressure gauge as reference again), im assuming when warmed up, the tyre pressures would have been slightly higher. (so the tyre pressures I stated were all "cold")

Yeah thats exactly what this guy i was talkin to said, try dropping down to 25-27 psi and possibly drop a rim size as well and should be good for very low 15's/dip into a high 14, It would have been good to see what I would have run on 16's at 25-27 psi.

4-2-1 5zigen extractors....just found out today ive got a 2 inch bottleneck (the cat) in my exhaust system...stupid exhaust shop..:thumbdwn:

[EG_2_TEG]

weighed car this morning, as raced lastnight including me = 1640kg

[locote]

so what would a stock standar teg VTIR do down 1/4 mile wit hwhat term speed???
as im thinking of buying one.
took one out for drive today it was stock but felt slower than my GSI(modded).
i plan on putting all the mods to the vtir once i get it but.
still wanna know what times to expect???

[2MPRSS]

fly_vti ran a 15.4 at 89 mph stock vti-r

That's not bad man, that's a pretty heavy car there.

4-2-1 5zigen extractors....just found out today ive got a 2 inch bottleneck (the cat) in my exhaust system...stupid exhaust shop..:thumbdwn:
That bottleneck could be doing you well
Some headders that have a 2 1/2" flange have a 2" reduced and then flare back out to create that little bit of back pressure
I have got these on my headders and know of a few others
I also have 2 1/2" exhaust with custom 4-1 headders
all on a N/A B20

I'm probably going to the runs on april 5th, my car should be complete then
I'll be trying for 13's

[preludacris]

how did you weigh ur car ?

[EG5]

weight bridge or if you are in syd , u can take your car to race at wsid and weight it there. they measure it in lbs

[totti]

yonas, where abouts do they weigh ur car at wsid? in scrutineering?

sorry for OT,

but are you SURE that the 2in 'bottle neck' is not restricting your power???

[totti]

i agree with you dave, surely he is loosing power especially being 2.0L

when i upgraded my catback from 2.25in to 2.5in i gained 13KW at wheels in midrange power, feels like a different car to drive

[EG5]

WSID scrutineering , go to the left lane .

[locote]

Would 12s be posible on a N/A vtir teg with Exhaust, head, cams, intake and tuning mods + LSD and real good driving????
Im looking at buying a vtir teg.
just wanna c if the right combo of mods will net good power.

[yourfather]

wouldn't think so locote. you need to have a turbo to get into 13 second range. And they're putting out like 150-180kw @ the wheels. You'd have to at least open the engine up.

[SKREMN]

I think you woild have to build a better bottom end then the stock vtir one
and if you want 12's you will have to spend a hell of alot of money

i'd have to say no to that, blackdc2 ran 12.9 with full slicks with a lot, lot more mods than what you have mentioned. Definately requires upgraded bottom end, if not boost.

[VTECACCORD]

To put it into perspective a Ferrari 355 runs 13.5's

[tinkerbell]

to put it really in perspective... i ran 13.7 with a $7000 B20VTEC in a LS integra...

[tinkerbell]

(on street legal drag radials, not slicks)

[hondaboy]

thats ****ing quick!
