So yes you can 5.90'Dee the Mazda trans in the 1/8

Usally I 60' in the low 1.3, need to pull 2-300 from the 2 stem, and I got out of the groove in 3rd, the 8's are insight.....

I think you are knocking on ari's door right now, that's close man, keep it stock drive train untill u go into the 8s for the record books, that fucking awesome congrats.

CONGRATS man!

Update that signature!

Is that trans completely stock or Liberty modded? Damn impressive either way!

Damn, you're really cooking..... congrats :icon_tup:

Damn nice job! 120mph in the 1/8th, 5.9th is awesome. That car was making some power that night!

Very impressive. Awesome

120 in the 1/8 at 5.9 is very cool. :nod: :icon_tup:

Congrats! Finally a 5.9 pass in a FD. Link where I can refresh my memory on the mods? Mainly trans, diff, fuel and turbo setup?

S475 turbo, nothing crazy, just a lot of trial and error

Thanks everybody!! After many years feel good to be motivating people back to the track :wink:

Great JOB Bro!!! :icon_tup: You've motivated ME!!!

You are the man BACON

NICE! Keep up the hard work!

Nice work!

reallllll nice dude

very nice! fyi, Ari never went that fast with a stock tranny

Thing is there was so many fast passes that when he put the g101 in no one really knew when it exactly went in but him. Jim from JPR and he have had many conversations about that, and how the liberty faceplate affects "factory trans" rule.
It's really an incredible thing how fast he was 10 yrs ago, the factory trans is beyond its limitations then and now. That pass was on a liberty face plate box, factory gears and shaft assembled by ray Wilson @ PFS. But a week later we stripped the teeth off 3 rd on the dyno. Factory gear can't handle close to 500ft lbs of torque... Case flexes and cracks, syncros don't like high rpm shifting. And my car way lighter than his was at the same et, which makes his # even more impressive. for this season I'm gonna throw another 3 transmission at her, one junkyard, one low mileage, and one trick up my sleeve syncro, with finally getting a 150mph pass last weekend I know I have the power to run a 8, just need a clean shift to 3rd
Then the madness of the factory trans saga can end for me lol

Well bacon has done a great job and should be very proud.

I don't see a reason everyone wants to compare to Ari. It was ten years ago he was doing his thing. Everything has improved since, turbos, ecus, injectors, fuel, etc...

Man that's fast! Our 68 Camaro has a 434 small block, I've gone 6.0 in the 1/8 in it, and man it's over before you know it. Congrats on the run, rule of thumb, anything under 6.0 in the 1/8, is usually an 8.0 pass.
