At what WHP did you break into 12's?

Really guys, how can anyone here really prove what they've done? Posting a time slip isn't gonna do it - how would you then prove it's your timeslip? If nobody here believes this guy, then don't believe him. I don't think he needs to prove himself to anyone. Really people, be cautious when accepting information, but calling people liars is just a waste of time - and my energy. It only starts long flames like this that will never be resolved. If I achieved something really big, I'd be excited to share it with you guys. But I wouldn't want to share it if I'm only gonna told I'm full of ****.

You shouldn't need a credit check and a list of references to participate in an online forum. Let's ease off a little.
 
I agree. This has turned out way the wrong way. And how can that guy say I had nothing to contribute to this thread? Isn't this the what horsepower did you go twelves? Well, I went twelves and I have about 300-320 whp. Depending on what calculator you use. Since all-wheel drive dyno's are on the endangered species list, all I have is horsepower calculators to go by.
 
This has nothing to do with the topic really, but I don't think AWD dynos are on the endangered species list. There are more and more popping up each day. BM tranny just got a new one. There have been 2 new ones installed in the dallas area in the last 5 months and Alamo in arlington is working on getting one also.

Alright I have finally scanned those slips. I have also scanned 2 others with 1.9's, also the others are to show that car 312 is mine. I apologize for these only being 1/8th mile slips but that is what I could find for the time being.
I will have them posted later on after I can get them uploaded.
You can take these for whatever they are worth. After this I can do no more.
 
Well back before I did any tuning ona dyno - I went to
NYIRP - when I came down to visit my brother.

and I ran a 13.2@104 - on a 2.2 60'

My brother got my car to run a 2.0 - 60' but only ran a 14.1 because he couldn't get into 3rd.

I personally around this area haven't beaten a 2.293 - 60'

for the most part I'm always 2.3-2.4

It is possible for a 1.8 - it's all tire pressure, thread, and kind of rubber your using, and weight of car to list some things. (when it comes to that 60' on street tires)

I dyno'd my car a week after I got back and they tuned it to 281whp.

I've seen stock GS-T's run 2.0 -60's all day on Nitto 555R's.


- Anyways not really sure what I'm trying to say I guess I'm just backing up that it is possible to get good 60's but it's just a rareity.



Josh did you get your car running yet? - haven't seen you in a long time.. your email doesn't work - I send invites to all the BBQ's I have each weekend... but I don't have your number.

Anyways.... back to the topic at hand

Just curious... Are you running a super 20g? If so, that 280whp does't sound right, unless you have your boost turned down some. On a side note, I agree about the nitto drag radials. I have them on my car, and they rock! They definitely stick better than the dunlop sp 8000's that I previously had.
 
Ok.. local here with a 95 gst on nitto drag radials Hope he does not mind me posting this.

Best 1/4 - 12.349
Best Speed - 113.89
On Street Tires

Here is his best slip on those tires. He does have a quaife.

60' - 2.067
330 - 5.416
1/8 - 8.099
MPH - 92.11
1000 - 10.425
1/4 - 12.384
MPH - 112.90


Not spraying and is on a 6cm 16g. Has basic mods with completely stock motor.

Here is a video of a 12.5@109 run. He had just installed the dsmlink at that point and was not tuned or some **** like that. I believe he is on his board so maybe he will pitch in.

i dont get it.. how the hell he is getting over a full second faster then me in the 1/8th? And yer saying he isnt tuned or anything.. just doesnt make sense.. I know driving is key but a full second difference?
 
Well he has over a half second on you just by the 330ft mark. And he obviously has a lot more power than you for whatever reason. Maybe his car is ligher too.

It's obvious he just has more power and better traction. Why does John Shepard run 9s?

Like somebody else said, you really cant prove stuff online cause you will always have some retard calling BS on you. I'm not going to argue cause it is not even my car. There is the video, there is the breakdown of the timeslip. If you dont believe it, too bad. :mad:


Just for your info he has been running high 12s on drag radials at a decent mph for a while. The difference was the quaife. That is when he really started dropping his times. Another thing to note is that he does go to the track very often. He has had alot of practice.

That is my last reply to this conversation.

Amen to that. What more do people want. He provided a detailed timeslip (well not scanned, but just as good). And he linked us video that backed it up. On the video you can clearly see it is a GST, and not a GSX.

I have been saying it for several months now. It is not terribly hard to get a fwd into the 12's on a 16G. Its all about practice, practice, and more practice. And having an LSD with full supporting mods help :) Some people here just have a hard time realizing you cant just slap some parts together and expect to run fast. You have to learn how to drive the car, plan and simple. You can tune it galore, but if you cant drive it, then you will never get the low ets.

Great Job on 12.5 pass. I look forward to break into the 12's within 1 month.

:rolleyes: What a troll. This from a guy who has never been to the track. There is too much BS calling and questioning of credibility on this board and it's all from people who 1) have DSM Shop parts, 2) have never been to the track or both. It's pathetic. People with half a clue are going to stop saying anything if they are accuses of lieing all the time. Then the board will be like DSMbalk. But ignorance is bliss so whatever.
 
I personally think it's a very believeable time. That aside, I was asked:

...was that spraying? if so what size shot?...

Yes it was, and that was with an 80 shot dry kit.

Regards,

Those are some killer times for that dude. I guess that quaife really earns it's price tag, damn! When you say he has basic mods, then I'm assuming that he doesn't have cams either, or does he?
 
Nope..no cams stock motor. I'm sure he will pop in here soon.:cool:

Thanks for the info. Those times definately give us fwd'ers some encouragement and hope.
 
Alright, I usually use photopoint to host my pics. They are no longeron-line so who, or how can I upload pics for free. Any help and I can have my slips up also.
If they get bashed or what ever, who cares.
