i see no slips??
i ran 15.6 in stock gsi and i have a slip to prove it.
even if i ran a 14.8 or .9 still not really a time that you would use to bag a car running .7 of a second slower.

the slowest 1 is the only 1 with the slip?
i done a 12sec run on a gtech last night i might post that up!
As stated, mine was done on a private track, allthough the track contained all the nessessary gear to get an accurate time there was no print out.
I live around 3hrs drive from a drag track. so its not easy for me to get an official one done.

HI locote, you did pretty well, just wondering when you shift your gear, i normally change it around 4000(sometimes 6000 just being a idiot) : ) with mine,the one with type r tranny i shft around 5000
if thats when your shifting then your not even reaching peak power...Quote:

and i dont care if you guys can run high 14s in your cars, 14s is f all,
and y should you guys get so defensive over the vtir being half a second quiker?
you paid more for your car, it was more expensive when it came out, thats obvious for a reason, the motor is different, it has more power so therefore it has to be quiker than a gsi.
if some 1 chose a gsi over a vtir why should you go and bag them and say that their car is half a second slower than your's over 400m, you paid the extra 1000s for that half a second and you shouldnt have to bag the ppl who didnt because they simply didnt think half a second was worth it.
just before 7k mate,
but now i shift at 6500 not worth redlineing it
mind you last time i went i only ran constant 15.8s
but i changed my exhaust to 2.5'
and its way to big for a b18b so all my torque is gone.
but im turboing soon so ill be saying hello to 13s :)
i peak at 6200 at the moment
And also i like to point out another major handicap for DC4,that is the camshaft. B18B has a really strong block,it is a really potential engine ,however the cams limit the potential a lot. I'm going for the all-motor since a lot of people think DC4 is slow and personally don't like turbo and supercharge is too expensive in australia. i'm currently changing suspension, camshaft will be my next step with IM and TB with a ECU, one of my friends in US owns a integra LS faster than a type r ,188whp i think it is pretty cool : )
