VE 1/4 mile times only data base. - Part 1

[Muncha]

thats a great time muncha. was that with the standard 3.45 diff and on a manual car? what was your 60ft like? the best time ive done is 13.0 @107 (60ft 2.05).

Diff was a 3.71 out of a hsv with a trutrack LSD centre, manual with a Tex z grip clutch. Suspension was as per factory ssv stuff. The 60' was around 1.81 from memory.

[Wonky]

That's an awesome 60ft for street tyres too!! Makes me think the Trutrac really helped.

I watched that without volume but one must wonder what the point of the big cowl is without a high rise.....

[dusto]

I guess it looks tuff very drag spec. Mark seems to have a few fast cars popping up lately, nilooks to be the man to see with nitrous setups

Ripper time. Can you msg me a rough price to convert to 4 speed.

[ittwgn]

i know it was late but i think you mean 3 speed turbo 400!!!

[whi739]

Wow! Well done mate that's bloody awesome

Thanks mate, was pretty surprised as i only went out there hoping to get 11.8 on my first ever outing and 11.6 was my goal for cam only setup on the ute. Cant wait to get out there and actually launch the thing and not tap the limiter on first gear

Thanks mate, i have find find out full size, as i just burrowed some old used slicks to give it its first go, where 17" hoosier just will get you the rest of the details when i go have a look at them.

I thought the same thing when we where doing the conversion, but wow it surprised us all, so street friendly!!!! smooth through all shifts up and down, dont even really feel it when you change gears. the manual was abit of a pig with the big cam but the th400 has just made it as smooth if not better then my missus pulsar.
We have a 3.7 diff also but thought give the 4.11 a test as it was already in there, and seems like it goes well.

Will get a video of the driveabilty when i go out todayand post it up

[ittwgn]

no all good mate i,ve had a t400 in my vx for a while now had 3.7s now 3.45s with 27.3 inch tall tyre to pick mph!!! little different with turbo and much more power!!!!! anyway get that 60 ft into the low 1.5s and low low 11s are there!!!! cheers

Why is the T400 sooo much better than the A6 when it comes to drag racing? A6s also have good stall converters now and the ratios are nice and short ... strange.
