Any idea what it should run

[Catnip]

I know people hate these, but just been thinking.

Length: 1/4 mile
Location: Silver Dollar

Tires: 20x6x14 MT slicks

Car: '92 Civic Hatch (no heater core, no blower motor, no ac, no PS, manual windows, manual locks, and no sunroof). Estimate it to be less than 2200 pounds, my last hatch had a/c and all the other stuff and weighed 2200.

Engine/Tranny: JDM GSR B18c with a B16/Si tranny
Mods: skunk2 pro series intake manifold, 65mm throttle body, MSD coil/6AL (fresh tune up as well), ebay short ram, Tri-y big tube header, vafc, I will be running 2.5" exhaust, and 12lb flywheel/ACT stg2 clutch. Untuned, but chipped for the intake manifold.



Assuming driver's mod, any guesses? I'm thinking high 13's.

i think higher 13's is about right

[WhiteAccord]

Good driver High 13's, low 14's for the grandmas....

Mostly on driver though.

high 13's definitley... I've had a gsr in a del sol, which is heavier... with the same size slicks.... and that broke 14 flat... so good luck, i'm sure you will be in 13's...

13's fa shizzle dizzle

If you dont have much track time with lauching and such expect mid 14s. If you can drive, then hell, high 13's are possible

I've never launched with slicks, I kinda assume it's similar to launching AWD. Hold the RPMs up, slip the clutch till you're moving, then let out, and take off. Sound about right?

As far as shifting, I don't think that's my weak point and I've had some track time... just not with slicks. Usually, I can drop my dad's/friends' best 1/4 mile times .1-.2 seconds :ninja:


Turns out the ECU is NOT chipped. It feels really quick, but I looked and the distributor cap and rotor button are both tore up. :cry:
So I ordered a MSD cap, rotor button, and coil plug, should be here before friday. We'll see. I'm not expecting too much now that I know it's not even chipped.

14.0 - 14.5
If you get it in the 13's your a damn good driver.

[Vteckidd]

slicks an a good driver 13s all day.

You should be making around 180whp if you are tuned. thats good for low 14s high 13s.

if you launch like a gangster IE 8000rpms you can run low 13s. better have springs an ret though

[coreyctr1980]

People say high 13's. I would think lower. My gsr weighed like 2800 and i ran a 14.75 when it was stock, spinning bad

my maxima will own it
