Nitrous 1/4 mile times

Aries, I have been considering welding my spider-gears to accomplish better straight line traction... Where did you locate a spool setup for the 240's??? Alan

We built one.If you weld the gears, they will break.

I ran a- -15.014et at 94.56 mph.- -That's w/ about a 75 shot cutting off at the 1/8 mile.

your 3rd and 4th gear is where i would spray...your 60ft must suck bad

[D-UNIT]

^^negative , well on that run yes 2.333sec , with a 9.5sec 1/8e.t. But my best 60 ft. is a 1.905sec juiced on street tires! To bad I always misshift on the the good passes. Bad trans. Darn third gear.LOL.

[crazy2002mexican]

thats what i thought ive gotten a 2.0 on street tires.....but anyways your syncro going out on in 3rd?

[crazy2002mexican]

I will be one of the only people to hit 14's na and i havent even touched the inside of my motor......bfg drag radials...stage 1 clutch, fidanza flywheel, injen cai, hotshot headers, 2 1/2 inch custom exhaust (no cats), electric fan (stock fan removed) that should get me there. ive beaten a few of my friends that run 14.9 and ive either beaten them or hung (13's with 75 shot of nitrous this summer)

[Asleep Altima]

you might hit 14's with that... but i can tell you, the same setup on an altima, which mod for mod, is still the faster car, wont get 14's. im not trash talking either, just telling you that i dont see it happening.

[Altiman94]

^ I dont agree with the altima being the faster car.

It grinds into 2nd , 3rd and 4th. I have to really make sure and hope that my trans is in gear , or else misshift city. The trans works fine when I'm not trying to kill it. That trans is limiting me so much. Plus it makes a lot of noise and vibrations in 1st and 2nd gear. 3rd is smooth. I have a new trans on the side that I bought for $100. When I swap it in I think I would easily shave 1 second off my 1/4 mile and gain at least 8 mph. The only problem is choosing a darn clutch!!!

Quick question : Should I lighten and resurface my stock flywheel for $120 or buy a lightweight flywheel for $3-400.

[Altiman94]

buy an aftermarket.

its been proven. less drivetrain loss = more power to the ground. you know that.

[Aries]

unfortunately true.The 240 will "FEEL" faster, but the altima will put down a better time.

[crazy2002mexican]

o well im gonna make it happen and my 240 looks better anyways!

[crazy2002mexican]

o btw altiman u got pics of your 240 on those spec v wheels?? i picked up an 04 spec V a few months ago....

[Asleep Altima]

lol, thats opinion though. i agree that 240's look pretty nice, but for a 4 door, i like my altima.

[justjuiceit]

Ah, but don't forget that the 240SX has better traction than the Altima. It might have more power, but not useable power.

[Asleep Altima]

if its putting down the better time... obviously its not an issue. now ill agree though, thats only up to a certain point, then rwd is superior to the fwd. but for simple bolt ons and nothing too extreme, the altima will still be faster.

I am hooking up my zex kit and i i wanted to know if you guys still have the EGR stuff hooked up...cuz i threw out my stock stuff....and if i do need it does anyone have one sitting around?

[crazy2002mexican]

i dont know......what all mods ugot?

[240sxOwner]

If you are asking me...i have exhaust, and Nismo 4.64 gears, and then of course plugs and wires

[crazy2002mexican]

how much and where did u get the gears from?

[Altiman94]

I do have pics. THey are in the general chat. THe thread is caled, "my 240" its probably a page or two back by now.

[240sxOwner]

I got them from my local nissan dealer for 550 shipped...first gear is almost non existant...i raced a friend of mine who is bone stock (also a 93 coupe) and at the end of third gear i had about 3 or 4 cars (and i missed 3rd the first try)

damn is it that big of a difference from stock gearing.....cause i know top end is killing me

[240sxOwner]

Yes it is a big difference....unfortunately i am going about 99 when my rev limiter kicks in...I dunno my speed exactly because i have 245/40/17 on the back and the gears threw off my HUD even more...on the interstate i stay at about 4K RPM!

[crazy2002mexican]

dont worry im on 215-40-17 heres a link 2 my pics.@90 im @ about 4 grand 2. Reason im asking is because im trying 2 get top end. 1st and 2nd pull hard 3rd and 4th die down.click here

[240sxOwner]

well the gears don't give you any more power...they just get you to and through the power range faster.....third gear was a big difference from stock....i am going to the track sunday with a dry 55 shot....what is everyone's oppinion on what i will run...look at my sig for my previous run...When should arm the nitrous? i was thinking right after i shift to second...
