i want to see were all the fast fc are on here i cant find many running 10s or low 11s . im in the process of builing my new motor and hoping to hit high high 10s or low 11s with under 500whp in my 87 fc . i want to see peoples suspension and tire set up too clutch they used etc ...

 

This is what I'd do if I were rich, lol.

Coilovers, 3" exhaust, some weight reduction, v mount ic, stage 2-3 clutch, lightweight flywheel, some really wide rear tires like 245 width (biggest size you can fit), wide lightweight rims as wide as you can possibly fit with rolled fenders, ai injection, fuel cell instead of fuel tank, battery relocation to rear, efan, koyo rad, lightweight drive shaft, very high flowing fuel system, standalone ecu,carbon fiber hood, get rid of any wiring in the harnesses that is not needed, lightweight racing seats (anything else you can get lightweight ), gut the interior as much as you can (especially the metal out the doors) , modify the frame by taking off some metal to reduce weight , get rid of the sunroof , and at least 440 hp to the wheels with 480 being ideal, if your car runs a high 10 or low 11 you'll probably need a 4 point roll cage too.

I'm probably missing a few things but thats what ive come up with lol.

After all this you have streetable race car

 

Should consider slicks, skinnies, upgraded axles, rebuilt or upgraded diff, extra trans on the side.

 

i already got my hoosiers i just want to hit a 10.9 once ill be happy other than that i want a 11.5 car on pump gas n meth . ur car is a 11.8 with only 414 now u got 438 lol . wat kind of clutch are using ? i want to see peoples set ups

 

Suprisingly I am running a Sachs performance clutch that I picked up at Orielly's. It has a sprung six puck disk with a Valero pressure plate. The pedal feel is really light but I have never felt it slip. It does chatter a little and is very touchy when going from a stop. I'm also running an ACT light weight flywheel and KAAZ 1.5 way diff. Stock axles with Hoosier rear slicks and M&H 17x4 front runners.

Also running BC Racing coilovers, but for drag racing I had an easier time/better 60' with a tokico/eibach combo. The coilovers are to stiff and doesn't transfer weight to the rear wheels as easily.

 

thats good to know . i got a act 6 puck hd pp should hold up . i have agx with stiffness adjustablee feels way better for street i had cusco coilovers before too stiff

 

up

 

I just ran a 12.005 @ 116 in my S4 NA turbo swap. Its was a base model 4 lug. Now T2 engine, BNR Stg 3 turbo, Full 2.5 RB exhaust, Vmount, MS2 ECU, ID1000s, 5 lug swap, still has(now broke) the open diff and FULL NA drivetrain, PS deleted, A/C deleted, Manual steering rack, manual windows. 1.7 60 ft on slicks. 15 psi. 93 octane. HP is around 280-300 judging by those HP calculators. I need to get on a dyno and get the car on a scale to see what it weighs.

 

not bad i was hoping for that in my bn4 stg4 in my fc now i got a ebay gt45 hoping for midd 11s on pump

 

Nice times drift....

I dont think the ebay turbo is gonna last long enough ..getting some seat time in and dialing in your car takes some time u arent gonna hop in a run 10's right off the bat..


Silverturbos car i see at the track all the time and is the real deal im sure there is more left in his car but i never see it break.

 

seat time to me is the key i know im not jump in the car and run 10s off the bat without breaking **** lol . turbo is just for now till i save up for a bb turbo

 

i ran 11.42@122mph 1.71 60ft with bald and heavy as hell bf goodrich drag radials 225/45/17 new stock rear shocks and springs i bought for the drags my coilovers would give me way to much wheel hop
streetport
S5 hybrid probably close to a stage 2 bnr
550 primaries and 4 550 secondaries
megasquirt 2 v3 with Zeal daughterboard

I started just snapping things tho snap the rear axle in 2, those are thick shafts (thats what she said :P)
and ripped all the teeth clean off 3rd gear , the teeth were all still whole sittin in the bottom of the pan
so I laid off the drag racing with it probably could get in the 10's with some mt et slicks

 

i got full hoosiers that been on a fd that ran 10.5 so with 400 -450whp i dont see a problem running 11.2-11.5

 

I'm also wondering How mine is gonna do this spring at the strip. 91 with an Rew, Garrett gt4202, greddy fmic, haltech ps1000, aem smart coils, FFE rails with id1000 primaries, id2000 secondaries, -8 feed to 2 -6an for primary and secondary rails, walbro 400lph pump, and a -6 return, koto nflo radiator, project b spec2, tein coil overs, exedy clutch, act light weight FW, and a bunch more stuff. I'm running 255's on the rear and a racing beat y-pipe back. I'm running 17 psi with pump 93 and methanol on the street right now and it feels pretty good, but wanna run race fuel, colder plugs and 23-25 psi at the track. If the clutch will hold it.

 

Stock rear suspension with M.T. ET streets will get you there without a hitch. They're a perfect mix of not breaking **** but hooking, if I were you I'd see if anyone would trade for your Hoosiers. I replied to your other thread in the drag section about turbos.

Haha good one!



26x11.5-16 ET streets on stock FD rims with 1" spacer ( 9.7" tread width and some room to spare)



Hard to see, but this is with 275/40R17 (9.4" tread width) and 10" +18 wheels. Could have gone larger if I had higher offset wheels.

My suggestion to you is whatever you do build in steps, no need to rush into everything right away, and take it from me drive and actually enjoy your car between projects. I regret not having tracking it and driving it more before the 'next stage' every time, I only ever got 1 pass with it, then rebuilt, blew it up, rebuilt, state of limbo, etc.

 

True I'm on my 2nd build trying todo it all at once now imndeciding on turbo for it . tranny grinds 3rd n 5th lol never ends . idk if I should push the 255 pump

 

I went 11.1 with a large streetport with a holset hx 52 at 23 lbs
