    24.5's about 10lbs in slicks if they don't leak air and you should be good to go

    Last time I weighed with different slicks but should be close 2450 pounds with me in it . I wiegh 220 lol but I'm 6`6" so 220 is actualy what I'm supposed to weigh lol. If I run 24.5 inch slick its going to kill my gear ratio I'm running a h series trany not the greatest gear setup. I realy like the h2b setup cause with a b16 trany and 24.5 it puts your gear ratio right back were mine is now but with bigger slicks . My dad doesn't wanna go h2b so have to do something different. It had a m2b4 lsd trany in it but every now and then I didn't wanna go in fourth so we put a t2t4 trany in it why we fixed that one . A t2t4 trany has the same gear ratio as a 5 gen prelude trany it sucks so maybe putting the m2b4 trany back in it will help out some its fixed now so ill put it back in soon enough. I'm hopeing that I can get traction with the 22-9 slicks with 14 pounds with good track prep.

    I don't have a traction bar but I thought that was mainly for wheel hop which I have none of. I'm running cheap coil overs with cute accord springs which are realy stiff and disperses the weight pretty good . I wanted 1.7 60 foot times and that's were I'm at and I'm not launching at 8000 so its not realy hard on the car. I mean the car leave strait no wheel hop and when it hooks I couldn't ask for anything better just for a little more air in the slicks. Maybe ill lower the launch limiter 500 and put 14 pounds in the slicks so I can get my trap speed back up. If I can get it to hook and trap 111 it should be real close to a 11 second car . Any ideas on weight reduction with out cutting the car up and this car has ac and heat so I don't wanna sacrfise that either lol yea I know sounds stupid but when yaw sweating in the staging lanes I want be lol.

    Sounds like if you went on a well prepped track day you could hook up with the 22's.

    traction bars don't help wheel hop, they keep a slick from ripping your front bumper off. Ask Josh Green

    answer to OP's question: at least two extra cylinders and around twice the displacement.

    Someone asked earlier what my car does in the 1/4... so just for some updated news.... new best time on streets is a 13.90 @ 103.2... All that from a barely 195 hp 2500lb coupe ( low end guesstimate). The 350z that i roasted from the dig on out wasn't very happy about that run haha... He even brought along a passenger, which made it even funnier when he ran a 14.94 haha >.<
