i have just been told by respected person in my drag racing community, that

he knew someone with a
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">STOCK DC2R(jdm) with a full interior and straight of the car yard ran a 13.9 at the drags. No mods.. </TD></TR></TABLE>


this run would have been done during the day, temperature would be 15-25degree celcius.


so is it possible to run 13's with NO mods and Full interior?
sounds a little far fetched to me....

 

legends of the type r, that one dvd.. wasn't their best time in the JDM type R liek 14.4? Correct me if i'm wrong

 

my usdm r no weight savings only mod was a aem cold air
i ran a 14.2 @99.8 mph with a 2.2 60ft
that mph is a 13 second mph with a better 60ft i whould have been in the 13's

so it sounds possible

 

there must be some very healthy Rs out there then
+
good driver
+
willing to thrash the car, 7000rpm launch, valve bounce 1st gear and flatshift
= good time

 

nope i launched at 4500-5500
rode the clutch a little
feathered the gas
didnt bounce limiter took it to just before the redline
i had alot of wheel hop for some reason and it spun alot

 

I could see it being down if the absolute optimal conditions were all present.

 

yeah, after thinking about it.
like cryptikman said, if optimal conditions were present. it is possible.

thanks i answered my own question

 

Probably not stock tyres.

And it's not too far fetched.

Have seen a stock JDM 98 spec Type R do consisten 13.8s at Meremere. With only a pod filter being the only mod I can spot. Dragged with the stock 16s at full inflation as well.

thats what I was thinking.

 

No way a bone stock R will run 13s. 165whp and 2600 lbs just won't go down the strip that quick.

 

if it sounds too good to be true, then it is. you wont hit 13's with completely stock r, even if you get red light

Like others have said a bone stock R could get it done, but it will have to be just about perfect conditions with an awesome launch.

Several of us have run 13's with 170whp or less, but it has taken slight modifications in either weight or tire compound.

stock would qualify as paper filter/ stock intake, street tires and just stock everything.. if it can do low 14's, that doesn't make it 13's.. and running redlight doesn't count, too early of reaction is not a fair shot.

Saw the car "in action" in its prime, and i can tell you its more than possible from very mild mods.

As for bone stock, best i have seen "in person" is a 14.3

 

I dont' see why it can't be done. I've personally ran a 14.5 on shitty *** nitto 450 extremes with a 2.4 60 ft spinning through 1st. I'm sure elevation, temp, humidity would be huge factors. I'll let ya know if it can be done cause our track just opened back up and the conditions here lately have been pretty ideal.

 

In a previous state of tune, my ITR would do 13.8's. That wasn't bone stock, though.

Street tyres (Azenis), SMSP 2.5" exhaust, JDM OEM 4-1 header, and Comptech Icebox.

It was Dynojet 185 HP at the time.

 

With decent tires, a good launch, fast shifting, and a near sea level track, it's def. possible.

 

my friend..he is a member on here but i forgot his screen name, but he ran 13.9 with dropped exhaust and a DC 4-1 header on street tires.

 

JDM ITR has no A/C, no radio... front end is lighter (bumper supports etc.), I wonder if it has that 20 lb bar under the rear seat that the USDM ones have...

Does anyone know offhand how much lighter a JDM ITR is than a USDM?

Not to mention how much lighter Japanse people are than Americans.

Ahh yeah, in "ideal conditions" a driver might weigh 100/110 lbs...

It does.

That was one of the reasons they wanted to homologate the car. They really wanted that and the other chassis bolstering in their race cars.

 

this whole 13 second stock sounds a little far fetched, but all cars come out of the factory alittle different. I suppose it could be done.

But then I think about what if they dropped like 200 wheel in there? they would bein almost in the 12's?

Personally, my car is fully built with over 200 wheel, and even if i through DR's on it and drove my *** off landing a 2.0 60' I still dunno if I would hit 12's.

 

I think it's posssible but un-probable. Like said before, the conditions would have to be perfect and the driver would have to be amazing.

Maybe the guy was on drag radials and you didn't know and had a K&N drop in filter in the stock box and you couldn't see that either. It was a 98+ JDM ITR so it already had the JDM 4-1 Header.

good call. But still imagine what it wold run with some more work. Its kinda scary.
