Well I took my 96 GSR with 117K miles to the track last night. My only mods are aem short ram intake, apexi dunk cat-back and Full ITR suspension.

r/t ---- .858
60ft --- 2.366
330 ---- 6.584
1/8 ---- 10.004
MPH---- 71.83
1000---- 12.926
1/4 ---- 15.365
MPH ---- 93.67

I was very suprised with that time considering the mileage on the car and the lack of mods.... I was hoping to hit 15.00 but I couldnt get my 60ft down (too much wheel hop)

Honestly.... I'm not to sure, It was my first time at the track and I was just concentrating on the tree. If I had to make a guess... probably around 4k rpm

 

What does everybody else launch at?

 

I launch at 5500, but that is why I can't get my 60' below 2.4, but I still hit 15.0's. It takes practice, you will get the times down alittle.

 

I can't launch at a higher rpm than 3000rpm... or I'll spin through 1st and 2nd gear.

Damn i hate stock tires...

 

yea...me too.....(damn tyres )
with that being said.....
what should i expect for times(assuming good launches)...TIA

 

i launch at 6.5k - redline
thats only because i have a b16 with no torque riding on 17's

 

Damn y0! My 96 GS-R has half your miles!

If it's your first time you should actually ignore the tree, and whoever is in the next lane, and concentrate on you launch. Just wait for it to turn green, then go. Don't worry about reaction times, they don't affect your ET.

I launch 4-5k and keep it in VTEC. On drag radials I launch at 6k.

 

So is that a resonalbe time for my car... I have only had this GSR for a couple months. Im Not to sure what GSR run normally.

 

A stock GSR is said to run 15.7@90. Those are great times you pulled off in my opinion, especially your 60' time. I've been to the track many times, done about 20 or so runs total. And I rarley can get a 60' time below 2.5, I always run street tires. So yeah, I say you should be real happy with those times considering your limited mods, you have a strong Teg. !

 

im bout to run my car pretty soon will post up times i have 95 4dr gsr

 

I try and launch at 3500, do you think thats to low. Seems like it would just spin the tires and burn the clutch out. Help a noob. Hehe.

 

with a trap speed of 93mph ur capable of a 15 flat. just do some weight reduction and better ur 60.

 

Wheel Hop is very Bad! You hop, you will break. I launch at 6500-7000, But I use slicks. Nice times though.
