nice looking car and setup

 

Nice clean setup you got there...It's finally nice to a see a DRAG style 240....Post some track times

 

clean 240.....what times are you aiming for?

seems to be alot more drag 240s coming out

 

looks mean w/ those radials on the back! what kinda numbers is it making?

 

Well, the car is making 500whp (mustang dyno) right now at 21 psi on a T4 PT67, the clutch wouldn't allow us to crank the boost any higher. It only made it to the track once where it made three passes. All were made at 18 psi without a 2 step, no burnout, and fouled plugs. It ran an 11.5 @ 125 with a 1.9 60'. I'm doing some new stuff for this season and hoping to get a lot more seat time at the track. I'm going to attempt to run 10's on 18 psi. Once this is achieved I will turn the boost back up and shoot for faster times.

Damn, that **** is hot. My inlaws live in Omaha. Maybe next time I come down we can grab a few

 

Very clean setup there... from me all the way..

 

I like clean cars.

 

Sounds like a plan, just shoot me a PM!

 

Nice *** 240!!

 

yeah u can pull 10's easy with 18psi. I think this is one of the sexiest 240 ive seen and its done right. props to u brotha.

 

very nice and clean

 

Nice car.

Excellent question...I WAS running the SR transmission, it only took one pass at the track to change that situation. This season I will be running a 300zx transmission mated to the sr20det, they're beefier and seem to be working perfect on other 240sx's.




Note: These pictures are not on my vehicle, I don't want to take someone elses credit for those pictures.

 

very nice setup
Clean look !!!

 

The 300zx tranny is a great tranny to go with.
I have heard alot about this setup and people have been very happy with it !!

 

If you didn't know already...SPEC clutches are ****. (imo) After less than 1000 miles it's almost completely gone! It didn't even hold up to a dyno session. It was at the dyno once, the track once (3 passes) and a few street jonts...here's the aftermath:




Some new **** for 2006:

New motor setup:
[*]Carrillo H-beam Rods
[*]CP Pistons: 9.0:1 cr
[*]ACT StreetLite Flywheel


Other new mods (no pictures though) include:[*]RPS TurboMax 6 Puck clutch[*]Mazworx 300zx transmission adapter kit (short shifter & 1-piece driveshaft)[*]Line lock kit[*]5 Lug conversion[*]FD RX7 wheels[*]Nismo Motor and Transmission mounts[*]Power Enterprise 1.1mmx87mm Headgasket[*]60mm extended wheel studs[*]H&R spacers

Hopefully I'll have the motor back from the machine shop by next Tuesday...I'm aiming to have the car running by May 30th. We'll break in the new motor setup, and turn the boost up to 35-38 psi...See if we can't just break past the 700whp mark.

 

Clean 240

 

Are you going to be here for Import Face Off in Kansas City on the 21st?

 

Highly doubtful, I'm getting the motor back in a few days...then I've still got a transmission kit to install...after that the motor needs to be broken in...and a cage needs to be installed! So it's not looking too promising for the 21st.

 

how do you like the AEM EMS?

Wow, that's a pretty neat set-up with the 300zx trans. Where can I get one?

No complaints so far, it's done everything I hoped it would and hasn't caused me any problems!

That's a damn good question! I called on Friday and couldn't get mine! You guys were out of town racing your car!!!! I'll be giving you a call on Tuesday (when you return) and placing my order.
