the first thing i thought when i saw the shifter was...... "huh never seen that before, cool"...... then i thought "what if u lose control and go into the wall or something worse and u dont get ur fingers out in time"..... that could hurt.

Got ya. So probably around 2300 lbs or more with the K20. Looked at the pics again and like the jack, too! Haha. Definitely a nice setup. Now turn the power up! :p

Can't watch the video at the moment, but I presume the K20A2 6-speed trans is on it, too?

I had a 07 si trans on it but second gear went when I had it all motor so I got a brand new ep3 5speed with the si LSD in it.

why would it be 100 more lbs with the k swap? unless he went from NA gsr to K turbo

Got some more Dyno time in today. Picked up about 100hp and 80tq in the mid range. Hopefully I'll be able to hit a 10.99 Thursday at test and tune. We will see.

I was factoring on both the K20 swap and the turbo setup. Seeing now that the B-series was turbocharged, I'd venture to guess roughly 20-40 lbs added now. 96 mph trap just seems low for the power and I've known some EGs to be above 2450 lbs, so was just wondering.

car is super clean! i could be wrong here, but does the trap/et seem down for how well the car is launching and 400whp in a 2200 lb car?

I'm sure it could be. We're still having issues with boost creep at the end of the track and 1st to 2nd falls on its face. I did manage to pick up a 10th Thursday

Great 60's but trap speed seems low for 400whp and 2200 lbs or so. My car was at roughly that weight and 461whp and did 132mph traps. Figured you would be at least around 122-125mph or so with 400whp.

Either way good runs. Gtr still got ya though. Go Nissan.
