I was supposed to race some 12 second DSMs, but they didn't show (not Jess). Ha!
How does everyone think I did?

stichris

Dunno what year, but they all have the same motor. It was BPU. Intake/exhaust/bov/etc/etc
2jz-gte, holla!
I have a ****ty video up. The good video is on my camcorder. I will import as soon as I get my mac back.

dang chris, my connection isn't that great and I can't get a clean download :( . Did you win? If so thats a hefty k.o. A bpu 2jz is pretty nasty.
stichris

He got teh smoked, repeatedly.
Camcorder video is much better.
It's hard to tell in this video what's happening, but we top out at 140.

All I can see is you jumping him on a right hand pass maneuver.
I wouldn't call it a race.
Be careful in traffic.

He wasn't far back, and I have to reiterate: I hit 140. No one "doesn't race" to 140.

03-14-2005, 11:21 AM
sorry, but thats a tough one to call... nobody flys by supras like that at speed when they are full throttle. is the other video a second race? that would be good...

stichris, I can get you a clean run with a BPU Supra (minus the traffic) and then you can clear up any questions regarding this impromptu encounter.

BPU supras are crazy fast...so responsive to the slightest mods. STIChris...how much power exactly are you putting down to the wheels??
gtsiawd96
03-14-2005, 12:20 PM
I raced 2 bpu supras. Black one and a white. 1st and 2nd gear i destroyed them. Anything above 3rd gear he would pull me. Those things are jet planes.
stichris
03-14-2005, 12:39 PM
Yeah, I'm all for a better run. We didn't have much room that night.
I'm fully aware what monsters Supras are. I'm also aware how ridiculously fast my car is, even at highway speeds ;)
vwcorradokid
03-14-2005, 01:33 PM
you hit 140 in that video? I find that one hard to believe with that much traffic...and by the time traffic cleared, you were only doing about 95-100 byu what your speedo showed. I think he was just playing with you.
stichris
03-14-2005, 01:43 PM
The video clearly showed the speedo at ~125, after we had begun slowing down. I'm not one to make up stories. I even said it in the video itself. This car accelerates amazing quickly at 100+. Also, keep in mind that from the angle, the speedo reads slower than we are actually going.

you should give matt your TMIC. im sure there is something wrong with matts stocker since there is nothing the previous owner left untouched.
stichris
03-14-2005, 02:19 PM
Someone else on the board has expressed interest in the stocker. She has first dibs, if she wants it ;)
I added a Perrin shorty intake, and an APS 50/50 BOV.

I don't doubt your perception of quickness at 100+ but everything is relative of course.
And the Supra's sweet spot is at 100+.
My offer above still stands. That way you can get a fair, clean, agreed-upon run and there will be no questions regarding the outcome and whether or not both participants were racing. Feel free to contact me.
stichris
03-14-2005, 02:28 PM
By all means, if we can find a good place to do it, I'm game.
Don't blame me if I stall so I can get the FMIC on, first ;)

vwcorradokid
03-14-2005, 09:06 PM
yea...i said something about it...i've also noticed that in the video...there happens to be a car in front of the Supra, maybe that's why he didn't jump on it. Just a thought though
stichris
03-14-2005, 09:16 PM
What are you talking about? The supra jumped on the gas before me. There is no car in front of the supra until the very end of the video, way after the race is over. I shift at 6500rpms, and continue well into 6th. Those are 135+mph speeds.
I don't see at all what is unclear about this video.
TROLL
03-14-2005, 09:20 PM
yeah that howling you hear is the 125+ mph howling that all WRX/STis have, so that how i knew how fast he was going. although its hard to believe that a supra wouldnt beat up on everything, i highly doubt he would have played around with an STi to over 100 at partial throttle.
bryan
vwcorradokid
03-14-2005, 09:22 PM
something just doesn't add up here...either the supra isn't worked like you say it is...or you have WAY more stuff done to your car that you lead people to believe. i know at least 2 people that want to run you, and then maybe i'll believe you about beating the Supra. I have video of my friend's Audi beating a completely worked porsche...but the guy was only playing around for a minute...doesn't mean he was racing.

TheWraith
03-15-2005, 05:58 PM
Easy math here. A simple BPU Supra puts out 400-420rwhp, so you're short about 100rwhp. Since you didn't go from a stop, you can't claim any AWD advantage. And from a roll the Supra has the overwhelming edge in both gearing and coefficient of drag, perfectly suited for 100+mph runs.
The likelihood is that you raced a stock Supra which puts down 290-300rwhp, which is in your ballpark.
End of story.
stichris
03-15-2005, 06:22 PM
Okay. He had exhaust/BOV at a minimum. But he wasn't racing, or he only had those mods, or whatever. Blah, blah, blah.

thats bs i read what you had listed before and it said like injen intake and all this bs so if your saying your car is bonestock then your lying
"And all this BS", aka my mods. WTF, homey.
I updated it today to reflect my change from an Injen intake to the Perrin shorty intake, and my addition of an APS BOV. Otherwise, the list is identical.
I'm not sure where I suggested my car is bone stock. I've said my car has a "catback." While it is not inherently a falsehood, I'm clearly joking about that being the only modification I have done. You sure do get worked up over meaningless internet banter.

You will definitely beat me :) Unless you don't hook up! What kind of tires do you run on the street? Drag radials? It is RWD, right?
bad360rt
03-16-2005, 05:19 PM
Yup, RWD. On street tires I have no traction under 35mph. I just ordered a set of 275/50R17 M&H DR's, those should help out. I was running ET Streets at the track, but have a new set of Hoosiers ready to go for this season :D
I'll run ya on the DR's if you want :cool: Just for fun, I've never run an STi on the street, and only one at the track, but he couldn't launch to save his life, 2.4-2.6 60's.
97TSi
03-16-2005, 05:39 PM
Chris, do you plan on ever running the STi at the track??
I think if you were to maybe post some times up people would stop doubting your claims.
And bad360, I'm curious to know how the M&Hs work out for ya. I was debating running them on my TSi (though I am fwd). If not them than I'm just going straight to slicks.
bad360rt
03-16-2005, 05:58 PM
I've heard nothing but good things about M&H's. Plus, they're the only 17" DR available in a 28" tall size (26" is too short for our trucks, at least to run all the time and not look goofy, IMO). I'll let you know how the work out for me, I should have some track times in a few weeks.
stichris
03-16-2005, 09:05 PM
Yes, of course I plan to run the car. It sounds as though I am making wild claims of beating 11 second cars. I'm not. I posted a video of me beating a supra turbo, eos. I wouldn't mind racing someone tonight!
JerzeySlowpra
03-31-2005, 09:44 PM
im sure your cars not slow but im sure the supra would've owned you if it really wanted to alls i see in the video is you 2 cruising at some mph behind each other and then you passing him for some reason, as a drive of a 13 sec. mk3 supra the bpu's arent a joke
