got It weighed at a recycler. 2180 with 180lb driver and gas light on.

0-60 7.5 on cell phone timer. g-meter on stock car said 7.2 so I don't know whats going on.

i bet if you could get better traction you could break into the 6's. more weight somehow on rear end?

Hey Campeck, whats up? Tried calling you a while ago to tell you I got all my exhaust on the car now. How are things?

knfeparty

Time for a huge spoiler.

Dude, the front and rear bumpers are like 100lbs, take that shizz off and throw on some fiberglass ones! You'll probably gain a second.

Campeck

but I worked so hard on the raer one.

yeah. the headlights are coming off and im going to use euro bumper and light for headlights and cut most of the rest of the front end off.
And I dont have any traction problems. the thing just takes off. which is why the 7.5 sec is weird. I would think it would be like high 5's...

knfeparty

Maybe the light weight is covering up engine problems? Maybe you're losing hp from a vacuum leak and you don't notice because the thing is still fast.

Campeck

Besides an exhaust leak, and some major oil leaks that will need addressing pretty soon the engine is fine.

im about to install a SMT6. maybe even today. but that brings up the question....how do I hook it up?! plenty of turbo guys have. but NA guys?

zoltan944

ya dude.... 7.5 is slow as hell there has to be some other problem and its not weight related. At 2000 lbs the car should really scoot 0-60 with a 5 speed

V2Rocket

with that weight and amount of HP id expect it easily to get into the low 6s. if you had some more weight on the back axle i think youd be able to get a better launch and faster times.

I demand a video.

Reimu

Seconded. I think there was only one youtube videof you starting it.

michel944

Wow, I can't believe you actually built that thing !

(out of a 944 that is....)

aribop

well I would have had a pretty sick vid but for some reason ppl cant understand that you push the camera button once to turn on recording, and once again to stop it. I mean..whats so frikin difficult about that?

as soon as I find the camera ill go do some 0-60's and some other fun stuff

Darwantae951

Ok, Aribop.
