I pulled down my initial response. I'm in a bad mood after having gotten hit.
Regarding the acceleration data, if you're that interested, you've got some more reading to do. It's all there and absolutely 100% accurate but don't feel bad cause you're in good company with your assessment.
14.0/5.2 street adjusted for 2/10's scangauge error as scanguage read 13.8 & 5.0 flat
14.3 track (da correction)
track without correction 14.6 and scanguage showed 14.4 3 times. Reliable to within 2/10's
I ran a 15.3 previously on this same track and 7.1 0-60 on the street prior to the mods. I will be heading to a much better track at sea level before eoy which will put the confusion to rest.
Now look at dragtimes.com for example. Short of stulax who ran the 15 flat, what times do you see, all wheel drive or rwd? No shot a stulax, but I think that is a very favorable track to run on cause the track I've been to twice, he aint'a gonn'a get'a them'a times.
Avery can be bought at many places. I got mine on Ebay. The mechanics of installing it are too detailed for me to describe. It was a pita and I do not like installing wrap.
Some weight is dead and some is not. 280 lbs and counting so far. 30% of said weight is not dead and this is where my weight reduction counts the most.
You're the 3rd guy (?) to
on WD40. Is this a conspiracy?
WD40 is fantastic stuff. I don't use it to penetrate rust, don't really have much of that. I use it to lubricate and it works well for me.
Mobile 1 is a fine oil. Used it for a long time. One can read bob the oil guys site till one is blue in the face but Mobile 1 + problend or Lucus is how I roll. Oil consumption is EXTREMELY low. Most ends up in the catch can and of which is very little.
The sway bars mean nothing to me. Easy mod to remove weight, better city-type handling as each wheel is independent. Stock shocks, drop springs, weight reduction and quality tires that are trued makes it drive like a different animal.
I believe a wire tuck done early on is best. Less in the way every time you turn a wrench. Made header install easier among other things.
I don't think I'm obsessive about anything I've done, yet. Just attempting to perfect my ideas. You'll find no other thread anywhere that compares to what I've done regarding the naturally aspirated intake side of things with pics and documentation. It's a culmination of what so many others have done, primarily to their 350z's. It's why, without correction, I have 14.6 second time slips while people barely broke the 15 second barrier with Stillen superchargers. That's what it takes to achieve what nobody else has on this platform, reading, researching and dedication, not obsession.
If obsession is your bag, here you go;
As for me, I'm just having fun tooling around.
