Opinion on 1/4 times....
Ok, I do this all the time, but since my car has undergone a big change in the last 4 months, I'm gonna ask you all what you think the car will run in a 1/4 mile. The mods are:
1988 SE converted to 1991 GT-X Jspec
T2 hood & LSD
Racing beat 2.5" DP & PS w/ custom 2.75" catback
Jspec T2 Tranny
Stock GT-X turbo(haven't installed TO4E yet)
FMIC
Rewired FD3S fuel pump
Cone ramair intake
Crane Hi-6 ignition
TurboXS boost controller(will run 12psi for track)
UD pulleys
Removed AC and airpump
The wheels are 16x7.5 Borbets...w/ Kumho rubber.
That's really all I've going on right now until I get more $$$$. The car was an SE...so it didn't weigh very much at all. After all this, I'm estimating it to way 2500lbs...I've taken a lot of extra junk off too.
So what are you guessing. I'm shooting for mid 13s.

As far as weight on your SE, did you convert it to the 5 lug 4 piston brakes? If not it's actually heavier.
Sunroof? A/C? P/S? P/W?
Unless it has none of the above, and you converted it, then MAYBE your looking at 2600 llbs.

The car has nothing for power options except a sunroof..no ac, it does have PS. I still have 4lug. However, I've removed all the deadener pads, passenger seat, everything "in" the dash minus wires for the ECU, speakers, insturment cluster, and radio...all AC tubing and misc plastic junk was cut out. T2 AL hood...weighs a LOT less then the steel NA one. No airpump either. The car weighed 2710 brand new, but due to the conversion, a lot of stuff was left on or replaced w/ aftermarket lighter weight parts. I won't be suprised when I weigh it if its in the 2500 area. If its not below 2500, I'll probably remove more carpet and excess junk.
I know a guy who had an 89 T2 and he ran a 13.6 w/ less mods and full interior. I'm hoping I'll at LEAST hit a 13.5!
