Your first ride w/ SR

[SoCalS14]

So I had my first ride in a SR powered car...whoa...its was an eye opener...made the ride home w/ my KA a bit BLAH.

The guy I rode with was only boosting like 8-10 psi....I can only imgaine what a 14 psi car feels like...

[BuudWeizErr]

14 feels....

almost exactly the same as 10. stupid inefficient t25.

but yes, first ride in sr is always fun.

I was amazed too at first but know I want more power.I dont want to fear the Z28..

Fred..:eyecrazy:

my first ride was decent.. noticed the lower torque difference on an sr but the sudden jolt from going to 0 to full boost is quite the thrill ride

[240Knightrider]

mine was great I was flyin down the interestate passin cars and maken the rices think twice about following, but it was too late I was already gone. Then I woke up.

[whiterps13]

my stories always end with 'then i woke up'

[Arrow]

That's funny, mine too! LoL! I believe that a ride in a sr is an eye-opener to the NA KA guys, but I wonder what the first ride in a KAT is like?!? More torque and turbo..... OOOO... That is my future plans. Turbo the KA24E.... Might be a few years but hey, it's only a LONG term goal! "Then I woke up...." And realized: WHERE YOU GONNA GET THE MONEY!!!!

LoL

That would be interesting to know, how was the first ride in a KA-T...

[rudee023]

WhenI got my car back from the shop I giggled like a school girl on the drive home. It's a beautiful thing... when it's running right:D

[Fenvy]

I test drove someone's ebay sr20det... stock and it suckkkkkkked

hopefully my own swap will be good

Fred..:eyecrazy:

Yeah i must say.... my friends 97 z28..soo much power, we need to be able to keep up.. till then, i too fear the z28

[240dreamer]

i fear my brothers '01 Trans Am WS6 6 speed. You want some torque!!!! KA-T is the only way i could keep up. Maybe in a couple of years.

[SoCalS14]

WOW...I did not realize how much power the domestics have over our imports...How much power would an SR have to make to keep up with those guys? How Much RWHP???

[IlIkEmYz]

my first sr ride was at a drift event

and the take off and ride of the car made me feel like i was going sideways on a bottle rocket. Very sitimulating

[PalmerWMD]

Actually all my friends tell me my reasonably well sorted SR can take the Z28's..

I dunno, I guess only one way to find out..

Fred..:oface

[SpeedFreak]

I love racing z28's.....smoke em if ya got em......

[916drifter]

My first ride was horrible becuase there was a vaccum leak and the bov wasnt releasing any air. It was slow. But when he got it fixed, i heard it was really fast and then he sold it.

My First offical ride blew balls b/c i thought that the car was done. Well i got around the block slowly reved it up to 2.5k then i punched it i herd a loud thump. I thought it being New Orleans its was another pothole that appears out of the vastness of space. Come to find out it was my cold pipe disconnecting from my I/C .Then i run out of gas even though my gauge reads 1/4 tank then i kicked the **** out of my car for about an hour or so.

But when it was done i had a smile from ear to ear and i still do.

What is your set-up?

[xns]

KMK rule chunkidori, oh, and my first ride in an sr was the day that me and my dad went down to get my new ka24de, these guys had two 240s and both had sr20s in them, pretty nicethen came the ride...wow, it was some neck snapping fun...

[IlIkEmYz]

wow, it was some neck snapping fun...

yah it's like a rollar coaster that's remote control.:ylsuper

[Fish240]

my first ride in a skyline(hcr32) was pretty fun, 0-160 km/h was pretty scary

[Rewing]

Morph did you get your SR20 swap done in Louisiana?

Edit : Never mind on the SR20 swap. Someone stole my 240 last night

[NoStickers]

i normally spin through 1st and 2nd and finally catch third but I've been able to take 1 z28 and my friends trans am. I was also messin around w/ my friend on his r6 and from 45mph up he doesnt kick my *** too bad considering i only have 250hp.

Yea i did i got it done in New Orleans at PSI. Sorry to hear about your car man.

[MainEvent212]

my first ride was soo much fun...my mechanic took me out on the shakedown run and we just rocketed up and down this industrial road...it was the most fun i've ever had...this is the only car i've ever driven that will chirp third...w/ 245's on the rear...and only basic bolt on mods

[240SXer]

My KA chirped 3rd gear. When I first got my SR I had some cheap firestone tires that were balled. I took it down the street slowly, then took off in 1st gear and it was slow as hell, in 2nd it wasnt too bad. Then my friend who was behind me told me I was spinning 1st and most of 2nd. I didnt even notice because those tires are queit when they lose traction and I wasnt paying attention. Pretty funny..

Just think of it as their last names, like Jenny.Jpg

[D1SR240]

I never drove an SR powered 240 yet.I recently drove a 91 talon tsi, running 19 psi, it had some hks cams, a lighweight flywheel, a stiff as hell act clutch, S-AFC and a few other things. That car was fast, it really makes me want to get an SR, that's why i'm just saving my money right now.

On a side note does anyone know how much psi a s15 t28 turbo can handle, on say stock injectors and mafs, but an upgraded fuel pump. does any also know how much hp this would make?
