Default My 1/4 Time

Ok I have a 1999 Civic EX Coupe wit Jpec GSR OBD1 motor

Mods are:
Civic EX AEM CAI
DC JDM ITR 2.5 Header
Carsound 2.5 cat
Apexi N1 CAT back
Tuned Vafc
(full interior)

By best 1/4 yesterday was 14.6 at 92 or 93 mph. 60' was 2.396.
I was basically shooting for 14.6--14.5 so I was very happy cause last season i couldnt break past 15.1 @ 94mph because of traction issues due to my old 17inch rims.

Now now im trying to see how low i can run with just bolt ons before i start building internally. 13.9 to 14.0 would be perfect for just bolt ons. My next mods are gonna be Skunk2 IM, Chipped P28, FPR and maybe a clutch and flywheel. ITR LSD is something else im considering

Daaaaamn, i was praying for those kind of times in my 1999 EX Couple w/ h22. I was shooting for 14.7, 14.8. I guess I should set my goals a little better.

Not that bad, but you can pull off a lower 2.3 or 2.2 easy.

Nice times y0.. Get rid of the 17's for 15's if you like function over form. I'm hoping to trap 104-106's here soon.. Probably be stuck in the 14's with my ghetto fab Kuhmos.

that is an excellent time for the setup that you have, in my opinion a set of street slicks (falken azenis)unless you are allready using them , would bring that 60' time down to around 2.1 and the BFG cheeter slicks usually around 2.0 60'. and remember every .10 you take off your 60' time is approx. 2 .10 off the elapsed time!!

Just responding to the wheel sizes. I ran 15.1 on 18s with 35 series tires. I now run dunlops on 15s, 50 series (Dunlop SP5000s, 205/50/15). Best time now is 13.77 at 102. Managed a number of &lt;2.0 60s. Rubber makes the world of a difference. So does a little ZEX kit.

errr ok ? he's trying to bring his times down and I suggested that, better than your useless post. So what I put a lil humor in it? He did end up using a 15" wheel and it helped him out.

yea i thought about taking the seats out but i thought that would be the cheating way out. Now that I know that it can run 14s as is, next time i go to the track to try to break into the 13s i will gut it for sure but just the seats.

Sorry, I over reacted a bit. But at the times he's looking at, I think he'd be better suited to perfect his skills as a driver rather than buying smaller rims, unless he's planning on getting a slick or something of that nature. I'm just so tired of 15" rims on hondas... ugh.

EXTREMELY GOOD THOUGHT POWER TO THE GROUND IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR, YOU CAN HAVE 725HP ON A DYNO BUT IF YOU CANT GET IT TO THE GROUND YOU ARE GOING NO WHERE

went to the track last night with the steelies rapped in Azenis. My girlfriend hoged the car all night and only let me get in 3 runs with my best of a 14.7@94 and she got like 4 runs with a best of 14.6@94. I got my 60' down to 2.2 with the Azenis im guessing but i really wanted to get some more runs in to see if i could have gotten into the lower 14s but somone wanted to be greedy. Oh well next week I will probally go to a better track so we will see what happens.
