I have the complete front Wilwood brake kit off my GN. 140-2508 kit with vented rotors, Comes mounted on the spindles with braided brake lines and an extra set rotors. This is an excellent brake kit I've had on the car for a long time. I have stopped my car at 170mph with no chute and these...
A lot of cars, including mine, struggled at SGMP. IMO they simply had to much glue on the track. The 1st day we were there it was awesome we made 4-5 hits on the car all in the mid to low 1.20's. Finished the day with a 1.22 and 5.22 1/8. The next day was a total shit show and we couldn't...
Prize money? Lol I dont think anyone is doing this for prize money it might be like $1500 which would barely cover the cost of the hotel rooms for the week!
Thanks, and yes my definition of fun is definitely a little different. I like to challenge myself and I am constantly do things to do...
Thanks, it is way more brutal when you don't have your shit fully sorted out that's for sure. That's twice now we got stuck and both times in not so ideal situations. The injectors locking up on the drive was a surprise for us especially considering how well it did at Drag Week which we only...
Loaded up and on our way. We put the 50% ethanol gas we had in the tank back in and got on the road. We needed to fill up when we left and only had a few options for an E85 station which were all out of the way. We stopped and decided to just run pump gas again. The car ran fine but it did...
Well Sick Week didn't go as planned.
We got there Saturday to test and had a wonderful day. The track was on point, the weather was perfect, the car was running well and we ended the day with a 1.22 sixty and 5.22@136 on a relatively mild tune.
We got back Sunday morning and the track was...
Thanks Dave, I didn't see the written article just the youtube video.
We are leaving for Sick Week next Thursday and for the first time since this time last year we actually feel like we have our shit somewhat together.
The article underneath mine is worth a read. It is my buddy Jim's bad...
Be careful with your power and grounds with the IGN1a coils. You do NOT want to run them with other wires. You need 3 GNDs one directly to the cyl head, one to the battery and one as EST GND return to the ECU which you can run with the EST trigger wires with the factory harness.
I actually...
Dyno went well
FYI That is a 3 gear 1/8 mile pull off the tbrake on a hub dyno, not very peaky lol!!
How much boost? Lots and how much is left LOTS!! Seriously, there is still a lot more left in the turbo but I am starting to worry about the BMS crank making an exit. We are north of 1600...
I believe we will have at least 4 GN's there with V6's. Hopefully we are all running the Street Freak class? It would be nice to get together and maybe organized and travel together. I think it would be cool to see a bunch of GN's towing trailers riding together. I know Tommy Robison and I...
