Taz_Rx Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 (edited) hey guys, just though I'd ask the question - who's taken there 4K not 5k to the strip before and what have you run?? I did a 16.4 @ 130kmh on the weekend, was pretty happy with that, beat a VTiR integra, a VN commonwhore and flogged a ae92 with a 4a-fe. Then busted an axle on my last pass doing a skid. :laff: please try to refrane from saying "I haven't actually been down a drag strip, but I reckon it'll do low 14's" cause if you have never done a proper timed run on a strip you may be quite surprised just how slow you car is!!! :laff: so lets here some times??................ :laff: Edited August 14, 2006 by Taz_Rx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medicine_Man Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 From memory when I G-Teched my yellow KE70 it was doing mid 19s.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killswitch Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Anyone cracked a 15 in a KE70 body? Using a 4K or 5K(sorry! I know you didn't want them for the times!) I'm curious... :laff: From them things on the net... a 130hp engine in a tonne car (inc driver) should crack a 15.9...! Real world is a fark load different though. Anyway, I suggest a list of runs be compiled. Pity I don't have anything to add... give me a month or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boost+k Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Can't say that i've tested mine for times. But i've tested to see how fast it'll go on the highway. same here. i know i'm not gonna get very good times so if i'm gonna waste my money i'll enter a motorkana or something and have some sliding fun at the same time :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 same here. i know i'm not gonna get very good times so if i'm gonna waste my money i'll enter a motorkana or something and have some sliding fun at the same time :y: So what youre saying is your car is slow, but you would prefer to sit here and pretend its fast :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stackas Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 unfortunatly the government closed our dragway and wont give us a new one yet. So you have to test your car on the road instead. Know my Ke70 with stock engine was able to get to the end of the speedo. have no idea about the times though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boost+k Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 So what youre saying is your car is slow, but you would prefer to sit here and pretend its fast :D yep its slow.. no dout about that i mean what can you really expect from a 1300cc turbo??? at what point did i say it was fast??? its fast enough for a daily driver and bit of fun on the track but $80 to go in a straight line 4or 5times just an't justifiable if i'm gonna do that i'll take one of my other cars down the strip. :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted August 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 $80!!!!! I went to a "test and tune" on the weekend, runs from 12:00 til 4:30 with about 30 cars. could have done about 10 passes if I wanted!!! cost - $35 driver entry for public liability insurance etc, and $10 for a ANDRA (Aus National Drag Racing Assoc.) day licence!! I was crossing the line at 130kmh, that was gunna cost me more than $45 to do on the open road!! :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
