aight.. so i go to the track yesterday to get my car dialed in for High School Nationals on sunday... and my car SUCKED!.... it's a stock 91 Hatch STD.... ran in the 19's... is there anything i can do to get it running better by sunday?

 

MPFI conversion is the first thing you need to do, then an Si tranny... after those things are done, worry about bolt ons.

 

Good advice.

Did you go up to Milan?

 

19's stock? I don't want to question your driving skill but I think I can get lower then that with me 90 DX with the motor running as poor as it is

 

yea man i ran a 16.8 on stock dx hatch with just intake and exhuast (wow) lol but u could take out ur interior and maybe it could be ur driving i dunno ?

 

stds are slower than dx's

 

NOS?

 

my old std took 16 seconds to get from 0 to 60

 

Thats great. Haha.

12 here

BEST ADVICE would be get rid of your intake pipe and take off the top of the plastic box that says dpfi. You will see a little mesh so you will be safe(). Oh and take off your back seats and pass seat for sure, get rid of your spare, jack and any other things you might have laying around.

 

Yes, do an engine swap.

This is my first time at draggin so.... of course im gonna suck! I havn't been able to do anything to my car as i am low on funds... i wanna do an intake, and MPFI swap but havn't been able to find the parts! the slips they gave me don't tell me how long it took me to get to 0-60 tho... and it don't help that i only have a 4 spd...oh well... speed ain't gonna count toma as it is bracket racing... just gotta shift nice and steady.... thanks for the advice!

no.. Norwalk... that's where the races are gonna be Sunday... eh norwalk, milan.. they're close enough together! lol

 

simple as this...save ur money and get a b-series motor

 

the easiest and quickest thing to do, get a dx computer, and a dx or better camshaft

put them in and take out the intake restrictors.

 

if its only bracket racing, and your not looking to go killer fast.... dont bother spending any money on that motor, learn to drive it as consistant as you can, and you will win... its always a laugh to see a 85 auto crx win an event because it runs the same times over and over and over... yes reaaaal slow times...

 

You guys are telling him to do all this big ****. He wants something done quick! jesus, whats a swap gonna help him if he doesn't have a motor nor time???

theres nothing you can do to really make that STD faster, i had one 3-4 yrs ago and it ran in the 19s too, and modding that motor is useless.

 

well i got another couple weeks to work on my car since the racing portion got postponed today... GRRRR .... did see some nice clean Rex's today along with a silver colored one with a wide body kit on it that looked FUUUUUUGLY! lol.... thanks for any help!

 

they best thing i would tell you is si tranny i put one on my dx and i love it i haent had a chance to take it to a track but i can rip mustangs on a road corse with it

are you ******* shitting me??????

Thats the 0-60 for my 2001 pontiac sunfire.

If no one ever believed me before, then they need to believe me now that the car is a piece of ****. Maybe I just expected a little more out of a car made 4 years ago.

wow.
