I finally ran my best time yesterday with a 15.4 @ 89.XX, and a 2.3 60' on a bad clutch. I ran two 15.4's, two 15.5's and a 15.7 for a first run. My best previous to last night was a 15.7. The things I have done to the car are: custom intake arm, RB header, no cat, and a Borla Cat-Back.

 

Nice run.

 

Nice!

 

get a better clutch and a limited slip rear end. if you can get your 60ft down to around 2.0 you'll be jammin!

 

You know now that I think of it thats better than some RX8's that I've seen run.

Good Job!

 

I have more good news, I ran two 15.3, one a 15.328 @ 90.07, and the other was a 15.387 @ 90.01. I just got the S5 manifolds with the VDI, and I am hoping that when I put them on, I will be around a 15.1 or a 15.2. Then when I tune it hopefully I will be a really low 15, or a really high 14, hopfully!

 

You REALLY should fix your "bad" clutch...

Not too bad for an NA still, fix the clutch and get a nice flywheel while you're at it, then pwn the 14's .

 

Clutch is on its way. I purchased an ATC Street/Strip clutch. Nothing outrageous, but engough that will do the job.

 

Clutch smutch, im using an AutoZone stocker with about 275 rwhp, no problems.

 

How much?

 

haha, but for how long?

 

Someone needs to tell me hat can I do to my rx7 in order to make it faster by doin simple bolt ons?

 

SEARCH!

the best ive ran is a 15.9 and all i have is a cheap o intake the rest is STOCK and i have 130,000 miles on the car

 

oh yeah and i also took off power steering and a/c.

 

n/a all the way

 

What was your 1/8 Mile ET and trap? My s4 n/a got a 9.7 @ 71, I'm tryin to do some comparisons here as I haven't gotten a clean run at the 1/4 mile strip.

 

get a ride in a turbo rx

 

That was about my best stock time too. Around a 16.0 every time. That was without an intake. My best 1/8 mi was a 9.8. So you are looking at high 14 or a 15 flat.

 

I second that.

 

Joe your 7 is in pieces and will never see the road again

 

My 7 could see the road right now if I wanted it to, it would just be driven without a Fender. I need to cut out a section of underneath where the fender mounts and weld one back in before I get it back on the road.

 

im hoping to run mid 14's in my car (s4 na basemodel) , after i get a better cold air intake, headers and safc with dyno tuning and better tires (mine are 185 70 14")

Right now i have ported engine, lightweight flywheel, centerforce dual frict clutch, borla catback, removed 5/6 ports, kn intake, and weight reduction. i think with just that i should be able to run a low 15 with what i have now if not a high 14
