Opinions wanted. Best time was 8.801 @ 82 mph. This is slow. I was disappointed. STAT's Reaction- .0298 60ft-2.017 1/8th- 8.801 @82mph 3/4 tank of gas- full interior + spare tire - intake-axle back HKS.
Not much wheel spin. And by far I was the fastest import at the track. But still slow to me. This is only good for @ 13.6 in the 1/4. This is like having the slow go-cart at the race track.(everyone just passes you by)![Crying](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/Peace.gif)

arent those times pretty standard....lose another 1/2 tank of gas and get rid of the spare and jack.
also do the gernby thins and swap out your rear tires with some 255/35/18 for better gearing

I didn't swap my front tires out. I just increased the air pressure to about 45 PSI in the front to reduce rolling resistance. The guy who put the 2 spare tires (donut) on the front was RoRo. Personally, I thought that was a dangerous setup since those tires aren't designed for those speeds.

what are you talking about?? all I said was to remove the jack and spare for weight reduction. nothing about putting them on the front.. or replacing front tires.. just replacing the rears with the 255/35 instead of the stock 255/40...

your 1/8th mile is faster than most cars out there. Especially mustangs and crap like that, that all run in the 9's.
