How fast will you be in 2007?

[Thor06]

So lets hear it yall. What are your plans for 07? Track numbers, planned mods, power goals, lets hear 'em all.

This season, I just want a runnign DSM. The rebuild should take place not too long after I get out of school. Hopefully I can get that paid for and dropped in shortly after. While the engine is getting rebuild, further weight reduction will take place, battery relocation, 3" exhaust, fuel pump rewire, and then the FMIC will go in. Once the engine is done and I have green for a clutch, the engine will go back in. I will be tossing that boost guage back in along with an oil pressure guage at least, maybe a couple more. During this time, I will be also saving for Link, I want to get that right off the bat to keep my newly built engine in check. Hopefully, this will be around mid June when I can afford all this. I will start it off on a conservative tune, pretty much stock unless its knocking for some reason. I will probably run it that way for the first few hundred miles. As I build up more cash, a 190 will go in next, followed shortly by some 650's or something. Then comes the tuning. Hopefully this will all be done by around mid June. If I do anything else to the car, it will be handling wise. Strut bars will probably come first, followed by some lowering shit. I am aiming for around a 2" drop I think, but I gotta see it first. We'll see though, it really depends on what job I get, what shit I can sell, and wether or not I can find some extra sources of green like working on other peoples cars, a second job, etc.

I guess I dont care what it makes for power numbers. I would like around 260 or so on the street tune, maybe around 330ish on race gas. What ever she puts down, I will be happy with as long as it still scares me on a launch . I am hoping for a 12 second slip once I get all the performance shit done that I want to this summer. It'll take some practice, but I think with the studderbox, NLTS, and antilag (like the 16g will need it ) going I bet it wont take a rediculous tune on the race gas to manage a mid 12 second slip.

Anyway, what up all of your sleeves for this season?

280-290ish hopefully street. We shall see when it's tuned. Currently in the process of porting/polish a lot of stuff and maybe some head work if I can afford some more aggressive cam's.

I'm not sure track time's really.

A badass 120 hp to the wheels.

Impressive, I know.

Not quite sure where my power will be, but I do have some plans for this spring.

Fun Stuff:

Water injection, EPROM ECU runing DSMChips, Cat-back exhaust (Maybe )

Maintence Stuff:

Timing belt job, ARP Head studs, Head gasket, Bow fix for convertable top, plugs, wires, blah, blah.

I just want one of my DSMs to run, that's REALLY all I'm hoping for the summer, and maybe, just maybe, sell the RS and start on the Talon.

Well lets see... Last spring when I got the car running I ran into crankwalk... I'm thinking it can't get much worse than that this spring. lol

I'm hoping for my power to be somewhere in the 400's... I'm also almost certain I'll be swapping out my turbo after I run it this season to break the motor in and such...

I can't wait!

250... maybe closer to the end around 300.

Well, I all ready have Brian Crower 272 cams and ARP head studs that have been chilling on my desk for about 3 months. I would love to get my head hot tanked, and have new ($199 ebay) ss valves-guides-lifter and stem seals before installing my 272's/ARP's. I would also love to get a new clutch and replace this stock one I'm on. It's not going to last much longer.. I also need to finish up my emmission elimination, the only thing left is the EGR blockoff plate, which I've had for liek 6 months. Everything else is done. I do want to get an M10 size injector or larger for Injection system. If things work out the way I want them to, I would really love to buy one of the Digital Progressive Controlers and get rid of my gay/leaking boost switch that keeps failing. I'm on my 3rd one in less then a year.

My true goal is 11.99 on my full weight 96gsx. If I could get 11.745 to tie the 2g/16g record that would be fine too . Last year my goal was 12's, but I went 12.42 at the last track day of the year on 21psi, flowing 36lbmin, 12-14deg advance timing, 10-12 counts of knock in 3rd/4th, 220deg coolant, at 11.5:1 AFR on pumpgas with an M7 running 50/50 smurf pee... Needless to say, a crappy tune.. If all goes well, Racegas, 40lb/min, 100% Meth M10, some advanced timing, 11.5:1 AFR with no knock I'll be there. That is if nothing brakes.. I'm still on my stock 'everything' wheels, tires, suspension, clutch, tranny, engine, exc..

Crap, I also need to take my front bumper off, remount my FMIC, cut some of the UICP pipeing for the MAFT to fit better and recalibrate the MAFT. Not to mention extract a heat sheild bolt out of my ported 2g manifold so I can get my JMFab heat sheild back on. Then, once I get all that done. I'll fix my sunroof..

I have some work..

Turbo...?

I will be VERY impressed if you can hit 250 staying N/A.

Scottsee what ever happened to that '99 GSX you were looking at?

[XeVeNskyLiNE]

Sell the fucker after basic training and pick up a FD.

[scottsee]

I don't know, I think the person that told me about it was being either supid, or ran his mouth because he was excited. I wish I knew though, he keeps telling me he can't get ahold of him. I should have never believed him or listoned to him from the get-go. My fience' pissed at him because of it, I think she wanted it more then I did..

I may have something up my sleeves that I'm not saying... 250 na is reachable. And I think I'll hit it this summer... at least I want to with a good tune.

[Thor06]

Ha ha yeah. Hmmm, do I smell nitrous?

Read all my past post (all 2600+). I will never use nitrous. I just got some stuff up my sleeves that will take some time, so don't worry right now.

EDIT: Damn 2700+ posts now...

[gthompson97]

David, what the hell are you planning on doing? I'm really interested right now....
