wat would a 221kw series6 rx-7 pull on 9" wide 18's and bridgestones worth $1800 a set? full reco rotor and turbo just dyno'd. never been down the strip tho. this is the fastest car ive been in and i must say 1st and 2nd pull like anything. the amount of push u get in2 the seat is unbelievable. HSVSUX does an 11, it must pull like crazy, would never know u could get a rb30 to go that hard. by the way, how much were u givin it, sounded like 4.5-5k-ish good effort there guys.

HSVSUX, with some sticky tyres you'll be dropping in the ultra low 11's for sure. What were your 60ft times,if i may ask? Mine made 285rwkw. Specs include: forged pistons,ported head,stage 1 JPC cam(being upgraded to stg2 shortly)Autronic smc,550cc injectors,high mount exhaust manifold(HPC coated) nizpro style plenum,GEN III 75mm t/body,GT30(.82 hsg),power ported turbo hsg & compressor cover,big cooler,3" mandrel,044 fuel pump,SX fuel reg, 4spd jatco,full manual valve body,3:7 lsd.Think thats it!! I used G60's for the track,best 60 ft time was 1.65,so traction wasn't a problem. Get some tyres mate, you'll be tose time right down. PSI.

My 60ft times were 1.85ish Just ran the car last night, reduced tyre pressures some more (11.5psi) and got down to 11.50 at 120MPH 60ft now 1.68 still with 17 psi boost. won the 2wd turbo class. cant wait to get some more boost in the POS and fit my new wider tyres too.

HSVSUX what PSI boost do you run when your circuit racing it??. Just curious to know do you either raise it or lower it a few PSI and how do you fair against the competition and what cars do you go up against.Jerry
