Just a quick update! I finally finally got gears installed after getting the run around by a few shops for months. Hard to find good people, and good people are busy! Anyway, went from a previous best of 2.17, 13.69 at 102 with a tune to 2.09, 13.37 at 104 with the 4.10 gears, skinnies, and drag...

Track was crazy good in the later rounds, lots of PB's! Cool car, didn't know you're a member on here.

So wind it out a little more? Valvetrain and everything good for it? Your car is one of the more impressive on here for the mods so I figured you'd know ;)

Ok what are you guys shifting at with a 4.6L and a tune? One pass at the track was 104mph, VS all the rest were around 102mph...so I did something different. Whatever it was, it happened before the 1/8 mile, because that was 1.5mph higher. I was shifting around 6,000rpm. Thanks.

Little bit of an update...went to the track and ran a best of 13.91 at 102...on a horrible track. Street hooked better. MPH was 104 (!) on a different pass, gotta try and figure out what I did different. I'm shifting at around 6000rpm, going through the traps about the same in 3rd...maybe 6100...

I made a few runs. I'm sure I could have done better at the track. Also the car is heavy...grabber system, spare, stereo with two 12s etc. 3850 with me in it. Picked up 20-25rwhp from 4000-6000 if the Gtech is to be believed. Diablosport claims 23rwhp. Yeah my old S55 went 12.99 at 108, I just...

Buddy of mine sent me a Diablosport tuner to try, figured why not? 50 State legal which is a big plus in CA too. Anyways I ran my car on a Gtech (basically similar to a Dragy but about 10 years older) and stock it went 14.26 at 98....which seemed about right. Tuned, 13.69 at 102! Car has better...

I used to drag race manual 5.0s back in the day, powershifted the crap out of em, so driver mod shouldn't be that hard....getting to the powerband in 1st does require an amount of clutch slip I'm not comfortable with, so I think gears will be in order. I'm in California, so no supercharger I...

Yeah no kidding. Here in CA they'd be twice that. I have a buddy who works for Fed Ex let me see if he can do any magic for shipping....

Awesome info thanks man. Just what I'm looking for as far as info. Did the 16s fit with no brake mods? What tires are they?

Hey all, I just bought an 08 that's stock with 3.31 gears and it went 14.26 at 98mph. No traction problems but kind of hard to get it out of the hole smoothly, 2.2 60ft. First gear just seems too tall. Buddy said go 4.10s but now I'm a little worried seeing some people do a gear swap with no...

Grabber Orange? I've been trying to figure out if that's correct. Here's the Z....

Don't worry, I'll be asking about nitrous, underdrive pulleys, tunes, and gears.

Just picked up "The Great Pumpkin" from my buddy who was tired of driving it. I have a few drag cars ('72 240Z with a 496 big block and '89 Dodge diesel with 972rwhp) so I got this car pretty much just to drive and not mess with it. Of course I'm already thinking of messing with it..... :clap...
