my old set up was a gsr with IHE and burnt clutch and i hit 9.8 constantly. now with a new manifold and ctr cams and a 6puck ACT clutch with xtreme plate.. my time decrease to 10.5!! all i did was spin out alot and shifting to 2nd gear spins out tires alot.. any thoughts? comments? im thinking of going street disk to solve this problem

 

sounds more like a problem with the driver (or tires), and most likely tuning issues...

 

driver/tires...be easy on the clutch out the whole

 

start low..2.5-3.2k...thats where i keep the rpms with my bfgs @15psi

this is a practice vid im in the rex

3k on stock tires works fine for me
Find an empty road & practice

 

did i read this correctly? your running 9's on a mostly stock gsr? even if your on an 1/8 mile thats pretty quick isnt it?

 

your 6 puck clutch is harder to slip, so you are losing time spinning your tires.

guarantee to hit low 9s this weekend with my new street disk

 

traction problems are better solved with better tires and more seat time....not really changing ur clutch set up..imo


u want a clutch that will hold ur power and transfer it down quickly without slipping. I think u should keep the 6puck and get some DR's

so did u hit ur time?

 

Not to be mean or anything... But you're not hitting low 9-second 1/8th mile times in an Integra GSR with I/H/E/cams/manifold on street tires.

Now, if that engine were in an EG hatch... You'd be high 8's by now.

 

when you guys launch, do you just release the clutch gradually at WOT?

 

wot? no

wow i have alot to learn. i need to learn to feather the clutch so i dont need to get an alignment after every time i go to the track

 

very possible to hit low 9's, my stock block/head ls/vtec ran low 9's in my integra

This is a tossup depending on driver and track. I ran 9.60 on streets with my EG hatch with stock GSR, and went to another track and put down 9.12 same setup.

What do you mean by 'LOW'.... 9.1, 9.2, 9.4???

Naw we're talking 1/4 mile here....1320.

 

this sucks, i just found out i need a little more than an alignment

 

i did 9.2 t0 9.4 with stock bottom end no cams just upgraded valve train and kumhos. No manifold just iceman intake, dc header and apex exhaust. In a DC2 at full weight. Its all in suspension setup and even mine wasnt that great illuminus on stock springs. It can be easily done and consistant.
