Limiter at then? I ran a 235/45/17 and at 7k rpm I trapped 100 in 3rd. I tried a 4th since I pushing far into 3rd and it killed me

dcrep06

so, i have the 4.45 and i should run a 24.5" tall tire? now question is, what is the smallest wheel that can fit over the LSJ brakes? mark? have a feeling you got that answer buddy lol.

16s unless u grind down the lsj calipers a little bit

dcrep06

You can run 15" wheels on LSJ brakes after shaving the calipers. I have a setup to run 13" wheels but after the lack of interest in things lol I don't plan on making more than one. And it's the one that's staying on my car.

dcrep06

damn dude, 13" wheels!?! thats some hondur stuff right there lol. lucky you. but got a guesstimate on how much you shaved off the lsj calipers? that wouldnt be a hard thing to do, i work in a metals shop after all lol. thanks bud.

It's not much at all. Just test fit the wheels and that will tell you have much you need.

dcrep06

ok, just didnt want to take too much off lol. thanks.

I'd say it was about 1/8" I had to grind for 15's....

but like said above......... grind some, test fit wheel...... and so on.

dcrep06

lol well id rather not have to keep test fitting :P but at least i got an idea now.

I just used the grind some, set wheel on for test fit, rotate a little, find where it hits, grind more method lol

What are cmiller8006s rims and offset? Obviously I am messed. I am an LNF with a 114.3 x 5 and have to search for a cheap 15" rim that will work.

His are American Racing - Coil. Don't know the offset but probably around +42.

I have a lot of 1/8th mile tracks around where I live, so that is basically all I get to race at. Last year my best time was a 9.3 with multiple 9.4's on street tires. I added a few mods to my car over the winter (header, muffler delete, moved stock heat exchanger out front, and a clutch, but most importantly I bought 24.5" M&H slicks. I went to the track today and I ran constant 9.5 nothing better. On my street tires I can pull a full 1/8th mile without shifting to 3rd, but since my slicks are smaller I have a good 25-30 feet of track left and I have to shift 3rd. The slicks hooked nicely, but I feel like the shorter gears killed me overall. Any comments or feedback, just trying to figure out what to do. I was hoping the slicks would get me in the 8.8 range, but like I said I feel they hurt me overall.

dcrep06

You have the 4.05 FD I'm assuming?

BWTIESS

iTrader: (1)

Yes, I forgot to mention that.

dcrep06

Not trying to be smart but you should read the OP...... you should be running a 23inch slick. Not 24.5"

BWTIESS

iTrader: (1)

But that would make the gears even shorter, my thought is in my case is that the extra shift from 2nd to 3rd is killing my overall time.

dcrep06

But at least you would get more time in third with a 23" imo...... but I also don't do 1/8mile.

When are you shifting

BWTIESS

iTrader: (1)

Haha I wish I had 1/4 miles trust me it seems to me it would be more fun, closest one to me is about 2 and a half hours. I shift at around 7200. I have the zzp stage 2 canned tune and I think the limiter is at 7300 or 7400

dcrep06

Yea I think it would be better with the 23" not sure though, these are for 1/4mile though.

EXsoccer1921

Raise the limiter to 7500. And shift faster.

What's your 60' look like?

Ah you are going to make me post that? . I ran a constant 2.2 60 foot
