why is everyone telling me to get wide tires and a lsd i dont have a traction problem. i said my tires don't spin because i don't have enough power to spin them.

Jakor

I think he was talking to me. Now I'm thread jacking...

@SlowRotor:
I break both tires loose, I'm not pegleging it when I burn out. I leave two rows of rubber for even amounts of length. I will eventually need a t2 drivetrain, but ended up trading my t2 tranny to get my car up and running. An lsd alone will not solve my problems. I'm starting my own business and money is tight right now, so I'm happy spinning my tires in the rain and beating 95% of the cars around this area when it's dry, I just watch how agressive I am in the corners.

i had a 1996 maxima 5spd and managed a 15.6 1/4 mile...

what motor? 3.5?

Slow Rotor

sorry to thread jack again but how much is done to your n/a my fc is making 230hp and the only way I could get it to leave black marks is if I sit it on limiter and sidestep the clutch. I also have very stiff suspension a 1.5 way LSD and coushined ceramic clutch so there's no real weak point when I launch it and it still grips up fine

jesse_fc3

you cant spin your tires??? with 230 hp??? a 80hp civic can spin tire(s).
maybe im misunderstanding you... i hope so at least...

Slow Rotor

well it spins if I side step the clutch or such but if I put it in first and floor it there is no spin when I launch it it spins a little but nothing that would leave black marks on the road or gets any smoke coming off the tires like he said his n/a does

jesse_fc3

oh ok. ya mine wont do that either i only spin hard if i try i.e. pop'n the clutch and **** like that.

Slow Rotor

Yeah I was talking to Jakor who has n/a fc with traction problems of a 350hp fc lol

jesse_fc3

ya no problems here but i did with my turbo civic! spun through 5th if i was just cruisin and floored it! that was the craziest thing ever! i did have bad tires though.
but rwd hooks better than fwd any day cuz all the weight shifts to the back tires when you get on it, and with fwd weight comes off the front tires when you get on it.

Jakor

Pinapple Racing streetport with exhaust porting. ported/polished intake, smog stripped, premixed, throttle body mod + elbow, ported mass airflow sensor, no smog pump, nothing in the sixth ports (need some pineapple inserts), no powersteering, no a/c, front / rear swaybars, engine mounts, transmission mounts, shocks/springs, s5 transmission (cause I needed a new one), vert wheels, 205/50 allweathers, full strip inside, no carpet, no dash, racing beat turbo exhaust (n/a header of course). oh and timing was set by ear as when I set it to stock, I could hear the fuel exploding in the header (even at idle) and was getting some hesitation on top, so I set the timing to just about eliminate the fuel in the header at idle.

I'm sorry but a 350hp fc should run alot faster than a mid to high 13.

Slow Rotor

Ummn i said mine had 230hp, and my mph for my fc means its good for a lower 13 i just didn't get there. Your car still wont be putting out that much hp and your strip may have saved u 100kg tops, that ain't gonna make your car a burnout machine like u say

Slow Rotor

Oh but i figure thats a decent output considering im still stock turbo/fuel system

Oh incase u didnt get it i said u had the traction problems of a 350hp fc with your leaving 2 black lines whenever u leave the line in a car with no lsd lol

Jakor

I shaved 136.4 kg as the car was 2700 now it's 2400 (should be 2300 but that's if I removed the extra 12 gallons of fuel when I weighed it last).

According to https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...76&postcount=5 post, you said 230rwhp. You sir are the inconsistent one. I hope to borrow a video camera in a week. I will post up video's as soon as I can.

If you look around at all, high 13's is not a stretch. https://www.rx7club.com/members/dvcn-83/ This member "13.96@97mph - w/stock NA 6pt 13b, RB Dellorto" I'm streetported at least and weigh a little less than he does. He also posted "Completely stock S4 13B, 2420lbs going down the track. 13.96@97mph" https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=204 I'm just guessing he has a bit more traction than I do. I'm only running a 205.

Slow Rotor

Ok, well first up I always said i had 230hp, all i said was YOU MAKE OUT THAT U HAVE THE TRACTION PROBLEMS OF A 350HP FC also your saying that your car might be good for a high 13, that means your car still has less of a power to weight ratio than mine, meaning its a load of **** that you leave 2 black lines down the road everytime you launch it (without the lsd mind you) and have traction problems through the gears as i have been trying to point out. How about you read the post properly before you start saying im inconsistent. So just stop talking crap. Oh and we are spamming up this thread big time sorry guys
