probably just a loose nut behind the wheel...lol
I ran Atco that same night in my wrx and ran 13.1, no launch though. so i'd say don't rev up too high and burn clutch or tire, just try to get down the track without the glorious launch and you should be in the 12's without a doubt. I remember you loosing traction on the blvd next to me at almost any speed, that's why I say what I say.
If that doesn't work, call me and I'll drive that sh!t right onto the 12's for ya.
lol

Tryin and get a 16" wheel for the back.And run a MT DR.Than make sure ur e-brake can hold ur car and preload so you can come out on boost.If you cut that 2.1 to a 1.7 that 4tens by the 60 ft and that be 8tens in the 1/4.So you be in around a 12.5.....try a tire around 26" to 27" tall it will help ur gear.

Just keep practicing, my boy has a 450hp TT G35 and ran low 12's all day

1000hp is typical 200hp lost
100hp is typical 20hp lost

Good point. I was just under the impression that in FWD and RWD the loss was 10-15%, 20-25% with AWD, but I don't remember when and where I read this.

give it up Alex, we all know you can't read!!!

Falken azenis are good along with Dunlop Direzza Z1 star spec. Did you do a burn out before your run?

Yea I did

Anzenis suck for drag racing, The side wall is way too stiff.

whatcha gon do to it :mrgreen:

i actually got a bunch of stuff from detailed image and started getting into detailing my self a bit. the products out there are so much better then off the shelf stuff i have been using before..

Proven 08-27-2009 04:14 PM

Good stuff man, best bet is to keep going back and trying over and over. As for tires, just search out any brand name drag radial and Eventually you'll find one good for you. I'd also post this on the G35 forums to get more car specific advice.

2 things to remember

-During test and tune's you DON'T have the leave right when the light goes green. The timer starts soon as you go.

-Also, You can "over" heat the tires during a burn out. Just let the tires spin with no breaking, once car pulls forward let off.

Good luck man, car looks good in your avatar too!

BoostedQuad4 09-19-2009 11:08 AM

i think u can get the 12's now it was hot as hell the day we went, but also since its colder it will be harder to get a good launch u will probably spin a lot

Bubba Ho-Tep 09-19-2009 12:02 PM

Usually get the best runs right after the sun sets. Cooler air while the track temps are still high. I pull consistant 1.7 60's on stock tires no less.

Regardless- as someone else mentioned you should be trapping higher with that much power. I dyno'd at 345hp/360ftlbs at the wheels and have been trapping between 113-115. I actually should be 117-119 but my tune leans out at the top of 3rd.

BoostedQuad4 09-19-2009 12:24 PM

trap speeds are not completely about power and weight, it also has to do with gearing, and shift points, if ur granny shifting ur trap speed will be lower, if u bounce of the limiter ur also gonna have a lower speed and time. sticky tires will help, tire pressure also has to do with ur trap speed, lower pressure will help u get off the line better but will give u lower speeds where as higher pressure will make u spin more off the line but give u a higher ending speed, it may only be 2-4 mph difference. and of course the way ur car is tuned plays a major role, two cars can have the exact same mods and exact same hp(not likely) and be tuned by different people and run different times and speeds

Here we go with the internet dynoing again...

BoostedQuad4 09-19-2009 04:10 PM

what internet dynoing

Will@R/TTuning 10-02-2009 09:55 AM

are you going to run again before tracks close?

Idk yet, maybe one more time.

BoostedQuad4 10-03-2009 12:23 AM

i think we should go at least once more before the end of the season. i want to see what i can run on a day where i get a few runs in and can mess with the tune a little bit and play with the boost

That, and every post afterwards, only way to really find out is to engine dyno it instead of guessing.

Well do the math, I made before 401.8RWHP and I when back after I did more work and made 411.2RWHP. And I didnt do the math. The guy that tunes my car told me. Besides Idk care anyway. I go off a WHP not BHP this thread is old as s***. Let this thread R.I.P

lol this site never ceases to amaze me

Who the hell is hating? You know everyone on here likes to define a ricer and well guessing, assuming, or having someone tell you your bhp is being one of them. Don't spout out figures and hold it like it's real. Anyone can take the estimate figures and come out with power numbers but it isn't that easy since many factors come in to play, like the trans and types of designs there are for rear ends. So non-believe a 8 to 20% figure :roll:

i guess you don't read, because he clearly isn't just guessing his numbers. the picture is of HIS F*CKING DYNO SHEET. which is why i quoted you and posted it, so forreal? how can you still think hes guessing numbers when the proof is right in front of your face. are you that dumb?

dragrace162 11-02-2009 09:46 PM

i agree that that car at 3500lbs with 400whp should definately be trapping much higher. you should be in the mid teens, for example my car made 375whp on a dynojet on 100shot and trapped 114-115 at 3600+ lbs. every car/dyno will be slightly different but still..
