Wait-you HAVE, and in you replaced the bad one with a new PP

Or, you HAD, as in you had one before the tilton went in?


Let me know-I need something that will shift- and hold the 750-whp/600ft lbs Im making. And Tilton's are not that expensive.

Thanks for the info on the seals.

I use Atkins myself. I was just curious about these "unbreakable" seals.

Btw Aruba any updates?

was at the track last weekend and there was a Supra Auto running 6.6 in the 1/8th @104ish. He swears it only makes 575 RWHP. I am having a hard time believeing a 3400 car can go 6.6 with ony 570rwhp?? What you think...

and a good 60 foot, I completely believe it.

If set up correctly, he can leave in boost- pull a 1.5-1.4 60 foot, and be in boost the entire pass!

And you have to remember the Tqu of the 2JZ will be a much more, and a mile wider than the 13b-so it doe snot mind the weight as much,

You need to get that auto, bro. Mustangs are doing it all day long with C4's.

Jump on youtube, search for "20B RX4". He's running a C4 as well and ran a bunch of 8.80 passes and it's a streetcar. He's got a bunch videos of him leaving off the foot brake and also leaving off the transbrake.

They guy in the videos, I talked to him quite a bit. He said, that he had to send his stall back 3 times to get it perfect (Most places do this for free). He recommended I start out with a 5,000 stall for my setup.

You can peice together your setup or buy it as a kit, the guy in this thread bought a proven kit. https://www.rx7club.com/rotary-drag-racing-167/c4-auto-13b-rew-quick-question-747178/
