i dont know whats going on, meaby im jsut new to this, or the clock is wrong??:

RT 1.1717 ET 15.4792 @ 85.7922
RT 1.0477 ET 15.4560 @ 87.5266
RT 0.6776 ET 15.4110 @ 93.0009

seems wierd, also this was just test and tune, so i dont know if rt is important
 
R/T has no effect on your e.t. Your reaction time could have been 2.0 on any of those runs, and your times would have been the same.
 
i was wonderign about the mph... also i have an...




















AUTOMATIC... Halllla
 
I would install a shift kit, and definantly a bigger turbo.

That sounds right for a t25 and a stock transmission because it doesnt shift very agressive.
 
The first two traps are low for those times. I was running 15.2's @ 91mph, and to compare to your 15.4's, I ran a 15.4XX @ 90mph. I mind you these were in my 3000gt tho.
 
then i blame the clock, cause i heard some one else complaining about some time discrepancy... you have an sl?
 
you have an sl?

Nope, got a 93 Base. Same HP as an SL but lighter due to less options (no abs, leather, auto seats, sunroof, active exhaust, active suspension, digital climate control...etc). So when it comes to racing I have a slight advantage over an SL ~ 150-200lbs
 
but over the vr-4? it is hevier, ill tell you they are all beutiful
 
Weight wise the 3000's go like this from heaviest to lightest:

3000gt spyder vr4 (320hp)
3000gt vr4 (300-320hp)
3000gt SL (222hp)
3000gt base (dohc pre 97) (222hp)
3000gt base (sohc post 96) (168hp)

(and I dont know where the 3000gt spyder SL fits in)
 
when i first heard about the vr4 spyder i freaked out... like automatic foldign top, very cool, but i did hear is was like 4000 lbs and cost 60 grand
 
but i did hear is was like 4000 lbs and cost 60 grand

The VR4 with all options was closer to $75k I think. Shit they sell for $40k with 60000miles on them.
