GS-T doing 10's

[TurboTalon11]

I drive a 91 FWD Talon Turbo and I give all respect to AWD's but I'm tired of hearing about them hiting 10's and 9's. Is it possible at all can you make a GS-T into a 10 second car? I would personally love to do this myself to see a GS-T in the top 10 1/4 times on this site. Does any one have opinions and sugestions how to do this?

Didn't AGP's website just have something up about a month or two ago about a guy who ran a 10.7 in a FWD without slicks? I'm pretty sure he was running the L2R and drag radials.

I could be wrong though.

Yes, plus he was running a small shot of nitrous. I think 50.

I have those old turbo issues with Jason's car in it. He had some weird things going on there. He used a HKS272 as an intake cam but used the 264 on the exhaust side.

That is kind of strange... I thought that the "combo" that most used if they didnt' want the "rough idle" of dual 272s, was 264 Intake, 272 Exhaust.

Didn't Brent Rau start off with a FWD 2G that hit 9s?

It was an AWD car.

and..

Brent Rau never had a 9-second FWD.

There was a guy that did 11.7@122-124 with his L2r. There was an awd car that did 10s with nitrous and an L2r but that was definitely an awd car

glad to see the dick measuring contest continued...

 

[TurboTalon11]

I looked up that 10 second GST and I'm impressed. I see the guy has a different set up in it. They did say the car does have the potential to do 11-10's. If its true and f he could do it with all that stuff in his car then imagine if it was lighter. If anyone want to check the engine mods and stuff here:

Go there and check it out. Someone tell how much money you think he put into the engine and if that looks like a 10 sec car?

 

[Slappster]

Would you just get over this. You're not gonna build a 10 sec gst. And I dare you to try and prove me wrong.

 

[TurboTalon11]

YO do me a big favor and jump off. There are proven 10 sec GST's and you see it. And I will prove you wrong sucker.

Personally, I find nothing more intriguing than doing what a lot of folks think is impossible (or at least wicked hard). Let's face it, had the human race stopped whenever someone said "that ain't gonna work bro" we'd all still be eating bugs and pissing on rocks.

First off I'm not saying there hasn't been any 10 sec gst's. I'm saying you cant build one. Unless you have rich ass parents you obviously aren't very atuned to our cars to have asked such a doper question.

Secondly, what exactly is the draw of a fwd 10 sec car. You won't be able to drive it daily and a 12 sec car is plenty to beat anything on the streets.

Go ahead prove me wrong sucka Let's see the video of you doing a burnout on the track.

isnt it obvious? you can say "hey, i have a 10 sec fwd." to anyone you pass on the street.

Yeah, you guys are right. I must have gotten two L2R posts confused.

I do believe the 11.7 was either on street tires or drag radials though. He didn't use slicks. That's still pretty kick ass.

 

[TurboTalon11]

I know 2 guys personally with 10 sec fwd cars that drive with them everyday to work and back on regular tires. An Integra and a civic hatch. They might not be DSM's but that proves you can drive a Fwd 10 sec car everyday so your wrong on that. But you know what you have the believers and the non believers and this thread wasn't suppose to be about haters and non believers to put the believers down. It was originally about what is your opinions and suggestions on how to make a GST do 10's. So ok Slappster you could be whatever you want to be, just don't tell me that I can't build one cause you don't know me, you don't know who I know, and you don't know what I got.

what is the draw to having a awd 10 sec car? Or a rwd 10 sec car? I know it is easier to do so, but why? Cause it is fun, something to do before you die. . We don't even know what application he plans on doing with this.

By the way, I wouldn't recomend even trying for 10 seconds unless you got a shit load of cash to dish out, plus another car for your daily driver, plus the skill and know how to do so without killing yourself. I would think about what you want before you even attempt this. If you are doing this to impress others, there are easier ways to do this. If your making it a be a fwd king at the tracks, than have fun. Don't forget to have money afterwords for those tranny parts that oh so love to break.

I was wondering, do they got any time slips that can be scanned and taken a picture of? And what kind of setup are they running.

A time slip would be much appreciated though.

Once again you are full of shit

Show me some vids of those hondas running 10s.
Believe it or not I can tell a lot about your car tunning experience because you posted this

 

[Slappster]

I ask you to please prove me wrong that you can build a 10 sec gst. If you do then I'll eat my shit.

 

[16GTSI]

Please guys as he put it stop arguing. There has been enough gst vs. gsx threads where it all becomes a worthless pile of monkey $h!t just like this thread has. It could have been a great thread. It could have been an informative thread for fwd guys like me so that we can figure out how to get better traction and run better times but no. Everyone is the smartest person on this site about DSM's and everyone knows that they are right and everyone else is just stupid. Do you see any of the wisemen on here arguing? No i didnt think so.

Anyways....now that this thread has been so distastefully destroyed.....

Fwd cars can run 10's and yes they will take a lot of drivetrain work to keep things from breaking (clutch, flywheel, tranny gears, axels) and yes they will need some pretty good slicks. My question is how fast have fwd daily drivers been taken? I am only looking to run a low 13 but i was wondering if anyone had examples of fwd daily drivers running mid 11's to low 12's?

so share...
who are you?
what do you know?
what do you "got(should be 'have'" ?



seroauly bro, i wish you luck on this, but being pissed at everyone who says you cant isnt going to make your car faster.

 

[16GTSI]

Why say "cant" in the first place? Why dont you just warn of the troubles that someone is going to run into when trying to conquer such a project as this. This site is supposed to be about helping each other, not telling each other to go eat $h!t.
A 10 second goal is obviously much easier to create in a awd. But for those of us who have lots of time and money into our fwds it isnt reasonable to just switch to a new awd car. Thats why this thread was created, so we can discuss ways to get around our traction problem and get closer to that 10 sec. goal.

 

[DenverTalon92]

Cant we all just get along? after all...we are all driving DSM's and this is a forum put up to help one another and inform people about the DSM...how to fix it...break it...and anything else you can imagine! How fun it may be to argue over who is faster may it be FWD or AWD...its still simply one thing, Very Immature and they are all just words. Lets do as all the others before me said and stop argueing and help eachother out!

[LandoAWD]

Agreed. Arguing stops now, or y'all get the lock.

You need a really bad reality check. Turn off the ricey dvds.

Would you just get over this. You're not gonna build a 10 sec gst. And I dare you to try and prove me wrong.

^^ Slappster, you seriously should not be so dam rude ^^
^^ Thats uncalled for. ^^

Arguing stops now, or y'all get the lock.

It shoulda stopped about 10 post's back actually bro. Do we need to cleanup the thread?

 

[DSMNightmare]

Doesn't Kiggly run a 10.3 with a FWD A/T? Thats a DSM tranny too, not a P.G. or anything like that. It can be done but I will agree with slappster in the fact that if you plan to make that type of crazy power your going to have to be prepared to spend money no matter which car you drive. Things will break when you run 10s.

Honestly a 10 second car on the street is insane in the first place.
