Hi guys took my 86 NA 7 down to the quarter mile today for the third time = previously I have had pretty **** times, best was 15.9 - but i had a feeling she could do better!!!

today was much better -

Best 1/4 run was 15.535 at 89.15mph

I ran my best 60FT too - 2.297!!

While I was very happy with my ET - I was especially pleased with my 60FT - the best till today I could muster was 2.5.

My car runs a stock open diff and the slippery/shittiest tyres out.

What was of interest is I found my best Et times and 60FT came from launching at a lowly 2500RPM...

Previously I had stripped the maz out interior wise - today I couldn't be bothered and ran full interior 2+2..

90mph seems to be the quickest Trap Speed it can do - which leads me to think thats about as quick as I will go ET wise with this near stock setup.

Bridgeported 4port end plates and RB Holley 650 on the way!!

Hello 14s!!

 

u mean 13's i have the same setup except with a 12a bridge and holley on my 85

 

Kcik *** man corgratulations on besting ur time. I have an 88 GTU N/A stock and was wondering what I may be able to get on the track.

 

13b2quickny do you drive ur bridgeported engine on the street or do u only take it to the track? I was wondering whether a bridgeport would be able to be used as a daily driver or if it would be too loud or idle challenged.

 

Lol - baby steps for me!!

 

about how fast can a relatively stock turbo2 do the quarter mile??


valerie
91 white turbo2

 

I have previously owned a BP 13b rx4 - I wouldn't recommend it as a daily driver, you would have huge! fuel bills, and the pulsin idle is a bit of a nitemare in rush hour traffic.

But as a weekender/stip runner its perfect - you pull up at lights an people just stare - they dont understand the idle, messes with their heads...

 

i used to drive it everyday.. then i got a 91 na and started using that.. but mines is half bridge and its not that bad... its not recommended for street use.. but ive seen lots of daily drivers.. a lot of people give bridge engines bad reps...my idle is between 1000-1200 gas economy is around 15 miles a gallon if i really get it on..the power is incredible... specially from 5000-9500 rpm... anywayz guys i just came back from hot import nights here in orlando...... so many women so many cars...... ahh

 

I raced an 86 JDM GT Limited Turbo Auto - and he was running round 14.7

 

Congatulations, those are some really impresive numbers!! (for a nearly stock car?)

 

I remember the first time I ever heard a Bridgeported RX-3 . That is one sweeeeeeeeeet sound... BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP BAP

 

valerie a healthy s5 turbo II like urs.. should get around 14.6 14.7 with a good driver stock... i envy u... i have a red 91 n/a and everybody asks me .. Is that a turbo II????????????????? and i go no lol

cuz tha damn things looks exactly like one cept for the lip spoiler, turbo hood and those spoke wheels.. but people dont know....

 

Thats a damn good 60' time. My best in my n/a is a 2.38 and i was really happy with that. Last time I went drag racing I beat a TII with that was mildly modded but it was one of the guys first times drag racing.

 

what would a 90 Mazda Rx7 Gxl Automatic tranny with all stock everything run . i wanted to run the 8th mile and make people redlight lol or jump there time slips

 

Mid-16's, especially with that auto tranny and heavy leather interior.

BTW: Drag-racing is boring! Autocrossing is where it's at.

 

Very nice times. Get your 60' down and you can be taking out S4 TII's
