Ok, I'm writing these down, and I'll put $5 in my paypal account to have tansferred to the winner. You must guess the correct time though! For every .10 of sec your off thats $1 off the winnings...so if I run a 15.5 and you said I'd run a 15.4, then you only get $4...lol, makes things more interesting
oh, and only applies to the closest guess...can't be given everybody money

BTW, if it helps you in guessing. My average RT is about .6 to .9(I'm working on it, lol), and my best stock run was a 17.3 w/ clogged cats and original exhaust and a .85 RT. I'm hoping to get about a .6 and pull harder this time w/ my new exhaust!!

And he upgraded the rims.... sounded like maybe t2 rims...(heavier)

The wheels are Borbet Type E racings....16x7.5. The tires are Kumho Supras...however, I think I'm only gonna do one pass w/ those wheels and tires in the rear...they are brand new and I don't want to wear out my tires quickly...winter is coming. For a few passes I'm putting the stock 14X5.5 w/ 195s and deflating to about 15 to 20PSI...and of course, since I have new tires, I will have no respect whats so ever for the old ones in the waterbox 

My guess is....
Well seeing as you dont have a turbo theres no way you have a d/p so I guess you mean you have headers, if so I predict 15.4, but if you still have the stock headers then 16.2.
Good luck man
BTW donnot go in the water box unless you have slicks

Actually, you can have a Downpipe w/ an NA...its not exactly the same thing, but its still a pipe that replaces the presilencers and such, Racing beat sells one just for the NA 2nd gen, but mine is Bonez. Also, I know street tires aren't really worth the waterbox, but its still fun
I've added your times to the page...
