drag racing...

[zippo]

i understand 240sx is made to drift but...

have any of you guys run your 240sx sr20det swap at the drag strip?

what kinda times do you get?

[TheLogikal1]

youre new here, so first of all, welcome.

2nd, if youre looking into dragging the 240sx, then youre waay better off using a turbo'd ka24de.

but to answer your original question, you should be running anything aroun mid/high 14's to low/mid 15's

[turbo2nr]

the best i ever seen a sr20det motor run in a 240sx is mid 11's

for drag your better off gettin a ka-t 10 sec motor..

The lowest I've ever seen a STREET LEGAL sr20 run is low 12s. lol
I assume that you're going to want a daily driver in this car also. I would go KA-T if I were you...

but how much work would you have to put into the KA to even get those times? from what my friend at work says you'd have to have the engine all done up for it to make 10s.

turbo, manifold, head work, strengthening for sure, new crank, pistons etc...it'd need alot of work. engine's are under alot of pressure when pulling 10 second drag times, so they have to be strong.

[turbo2nr]

yea that sound right..

with any car to make it do 10's it takes alot of work.. the whole bottom end has to be re-built the bottom do all that fule ish.. and bigger turbo.. you know all that good stuff..

damm it beat me to the punch...

wanna hear something screwed up? my buddy was at a car gathering once, and some dude was doing a burnout in his Integra, nothing wrong with that, only thing is the rear wheels were spinning which is very odd seeing how an Integra is a FWD car. the dude in the teg popped his hood and showed everyone his SR20DET. damn honda owners are taking the nissan looks and now the engine.

[turbo2nr]

ok now that is a realy hard one to believe...

that would be $$$$$$$

i dont know about that 1..

[Rage of Xenin]

well there are some people who have too much money and time on their hands. they should just give me the money

theres a shop in cali that dropped a FWD sr20 into a civic, but it was still FWD!!!!! a whole RWD conversion is expensive, but there are morons in the world...

Um yeah, unless the SR20 came out of an already front drive Nissan and is still attached to the nissan transaxle... and was shoe-horned into the front of a honda... I know this whole thing is Bullshit.

See if you made an SR 20 mount to a honda transaxle then threw it into 1st gear for the first time wanting to race... the scenerio would go something like this:

Put car into first gear,
Rev up engine
Dump Clutch
GO BACKWARDS!!!
Quickly,
Clutch in,
Shift to second,
GO BACKWARDS!
FASTER

The only usable forward gear on an SR swap onto a honda transaxle would be reverse... with all kinds of gear whine to a whopping speed of like 12 MPH!!!!

DO the swap,
Then Race me, I can use some easy cash.

In front drive cars the term is lifted... you lift engines into the car from the bottom, not "drop."

No offence, but that is the new trend to say "lift" just thought I'd bust out some street slang for all the homies!

Dropping is now what a minitrucker does so he can scrape the bottom of his truck all up in an attempt to arouse the opposite sex of the species the minitruckette,

Maybe we should start a thread on new street slang, I need to keep up with this stuff, I am getting older and faster (yeah fatter too, but more importantly, faster) therefore i spend more time getting faster and not studying the lingo or whatever.
