KA-t 1/4's

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

I went to the track last night to make some shakedown runs and it went better than i thought it would. I ended up running a 13.6 @ 101 with 12psi, and misfire above 5.3k so I was shifting right there, Im also still running pretty rich. Ill try and have some videos up on ka-t.org as soon as I get them from my friend. Ill be turning the boost up to 16psi and getting my misfire problem fixed this week, looking for 12's next weekend.

95_240sx, i'm just curious. About how much money did you spend to have all that work done on your engine. (balancing, honing, aftermarket internals, etc.)

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

About 6k after all the labor.

Shop has been loaded with cars, havent had time to work on it, until today. Motor is completely back together besides oil pain. Ran out of spoolge, gotta get some more in the morning, seal it back on, and drop da motor in. So, I will be ready for ATL no doubt..... Track time though, that's a whole different deal.

I ran a [email protected] a couple of weeks ago on VLSD with Dunlop SP5000 (45psi) all season tires @ 10 psi boost. First gear was pretty useless but I had a 2.0xx 60ft time so I think I can do much better with gripper tires.

Thats horrible....you suck.

Just kidding, good run, hope to see you in the 12's.

Ill hopefully see 12's this weekend since I got the misfire problem fixed and the boost turned up to 15psi. Anyone want videos?

What was the misfire problem from??

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

Too much fuel, it was shooting my air fuel ratios down around 6.5-7:1, but i got it all fixed and it really freakin rips now.

Ill be at PIR on Saturday night by about 8 or 9pm, let me know if you guys are coming and I will give you my cell #.

Hey Rick,

Any word on the videos? Haven't been able to sleep the last couple of nights from thinking about them. Must see :ylsuper

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

Oh, my friend crapped out on making them for me, but they would only be 14sec videos each, I borrowed someones digital camcorder so i can make some really sweet videos tonight when I go to the track (and the journey there and back

, ill get them up tomorrow night-ish.

Ok, I officially am in the 12's, with running a 12.8@108 last night and on video to prove it. This was done at 14psi. Ill be looking for lower 12's next weekend at about 17psi and race fuel

Im going to a friends house tonight to get those videos and stuff all setup and edited.

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

Blah, Im gonna try and get kicked out of the track next time (11.99 or faster - need roll bar)

i almost regret buying my CA instead of just building up my KA. Bah, oh well. I haven't gotten the engine yet anyway so i'll have to see how it goes.

Post by **Nathan** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

Awesome 95! Have any traction problems out at the track? What size and type of tires are you running?

Post by **95_240sx** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

I run a set of 225 45 17 BFG Drag radials and a Phantom Grip LSD, so I dont have traction problems yet, except right off the line I get some decent tire hop.

Rick

Post by **Nathan** » Sun Jul 20, 2003 1:36 pm

Good deal, thanks

I was thinking of having a spare set of wheels mounted with those tires just for racing duties
