What the hell is moneyshifting?


Your from cali you guys had a whole different way of talking than us chitown boys...
 
moneyshifting is when you shift, and you hear a loud clanking sound, followed by a large amount of money FLYING out of your pocket.

(downshifting when you ment to upshift, because it over revs your engine and you have to spend a lot of money rebuilding the head. money, shift...)
 
Yeah I have a freind with a M3, missed a gear and blew the motor. They are so gental for somthing thats suppose to be so advanced and expensive.


Psssh what junk, I missed a gear once and reved to 9,500 and the car was fine.

First of all, just amazing bro.
I'm truly in awe.

And I'm glad to see you looking into some JIC's.. which relates to my question.
Why stock shocks?


I wanted to prove that it doesn't take a tone of money into suspension mods to run into the 9's, also I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it.

Thanks guys.

I have the 26"x16"x9" hoosiers. I never ran it on street tires with this setup, on the older setup with the 3575 turbo I went 10.66 @139mph on 17" toyo proxies 205/45/17

Thanks man, the t4 t67 turbo had the .82ar exhaust housing. Alittle laggy, but the top end was nuts.
 
Just curious... why are you messing with the wiper switch is that your nitrous button. I have to give it to ya man you can drive well. DSM's are one of the hardest cars I have had to learn to shift.

Congrats,

Jason
 
LOL, I'll answer that one.

Even though I have a 2g, I know the 1g's during a hard shift or launch will end up moving the windshield wiper arm and end up turning them on. So Jake automatically just puts his hand there to turn them back off during the run, regardless of whether the arm moves or not. It's a force of habit.

all it takes, is hard work and money
more hard work than money. A friend of mine ran a 13.1 with $50 in the car(boost controller. And he couldnt shift real great either. Its all in the know how, all the little free things make a big difference when combined. I am certain with a good driver he could have hit 12's.
 
Awesome passes!!!

So your drivetrain is pretty much stock but your clutch? Stock axles, driveshafts, diffs and tranny?
