Big Tuna Motorsports went 13.47@100.29mph with a 1.87 60' today at MIR. Making around 150whp. Slicks are too tall so once the shorter slicks are on it should go 12.5's.
D16Y8 transmission built by Whoopee Doo Racing.
MFactory 1.565 3rd gear, OEM 1.172 3rd gear used as 4th gear. 5th gear delete. OEM welded diff as the OBX that was going to be used had .010" runout straight out of the box it was shipped in. Carbon coated synchros, 2-3-4 scuffed gear cones, CSB race staked. Shifts smooth as butter at 8,600 RPM. 2step launch at 9k.

CRX
Depending on how his last few events go this season, I might do another 4spd for him with different gearing. Need to see how the shorter slicks affect it first.

what your reaction time?0-60 time?

Not being a dick, but my car is faster than a B16. I easily rolled an 99-00 Si on Azenis at the ITR Expo in June. I was on my crap street tires with VTEC not working. Just an Edelbrock IM, SMSP header, and MFactory close gearset.

For a street car you're better off going with the WDR RR trans than the DR trans. Cost more but you have a shorter 4th (1.250) and a 1.000 5th versus no 5th.

Once Tuna is on the new slicks he should be crossing the line around 8,700 in 4th.

how fast you think that be high or mid 12
Aquafina
09-08-2008, 07:26 PM
Initially a hige 12. Tuna is very quick at knocking time off his ET once the setup is right. So should be midd 12's before the end of the season.

Bisimoto cheats with an F22 lol.
I want to see him put a D into the Insight. He said due to the aero that it requires 25 less whp to go the same times in a same weight CRX.

A huge power difference in a low-mid 12 car and a high 10 car. Huge chassis difference as well.

How will the shorter tires pick a whole second?
And it seems you have some decent money in this thing... but why all the money just to go 13's?

Aquafina

Not my car, nor money. Not sure how much he has in it. He is sponsored by me so he got a nice discount on the trans. I will not say what he paid for it, but it is $650 less than $1,720 as he is not using an MFactory diff. Not everyone is concerned about being the fastest. Some just want to be fast with the engine and induction of their choice.
Last season on a stock Z6 trans he was pulling 1.7 60's. Taller slicks this season hurt him so he is getting new slicks. Better 60', better gearing, and more power will have him at 12.5's. His best time last season was 13.51 at 98.1 mph w/ 1.74 60'. His current slicks aren't letting the improvements this season help him much.
