animal GT Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 anyone know the fastest starlet using standard gearbox??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starlet666 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 there are a couple here in aus that have gone very low 11's using the stock gearboxes.... cv joints and splines are the bits that fail on most setups... i think no one has broken the amount of gearboxes i have though yet.... my car has run 13 flat at 118mph so i know its good for more, but i always bust 3rd gear or the final drive....

Russleh Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 sounds like a money pit. better give it to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starlet666 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 yer it is a bit of a money pit, spend close to 30k aud on it now and i seriously have no idea how HAHA engine cost alot though as i got tons of custom bits and had a few go's at certain partsbut yer if u want it, come get it lol, its in cairns, australia and it has a blown turbo, so wherever u go in it, i will know from the smoke trail Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starlet666 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 you dont need a "dog box" to run fast times, straight cut gears maybe, but not dog engagement because dogs arent really much stronger than syncros and just as easy to break i am currently on the hunt for straight cuts, but wanna steer clear of dogs, because it is my daily driven car, and i wish to keep it that way for some time as my other car isnt exactly any good on fuel...

I've done it. std box just a kazz diff. 118mph wont let you do low 11s dude! 12s maybe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starlet666 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 im thinking on a full slick on a radial tyre a 118 defs wont go low 11's but im getting a bigger turbo now, so should be able to get a bit more pace out of it now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starlet666 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 what slicks did u use??? the only times i have been i have run a normal street tyre, drove 400km there, raced, and then drove 400km home lol...next time im going to have some full slicks and more power so im aiming to trap at about 125mph+ with the new turbo and tuning Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starlet666 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 look at the 60 foot time though, and he doesnt have a slip for it, so it may not be accurate.... i know 11's can be done at 118mph, but on a street tyre i have only seen mid to high 11's, and im aiming for sub 11.5's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daz27gt Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 It was done at rtoc national day.infront of eveyone from the club,so I'm guessing it's accurate,so your aiming for sub 11.5 on road tyres??good luck if you are Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starlet666 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 well kinda, i run federal 595 RS-R's on my car all the time, which are a semi slick, but i wanna try them, try break into the 11'sand go as far as they will take me, and if i cant get it under a 12 flat, i will go to the MT et streets and see how much better they are, before going all out on a full race slickrealistically, i am not aiming for times as much, because i cant go to a local drag strip the nearest one is 400km away and its crap, so the next closest is almost 1000km away but it is a really well prepped track..... and besides drag racing doesnt really interest me in any way, im mainly going for the trap speeds, as the top end is what gives u the indication of a tough street car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
