Your car looks amazing. Looks to good to be that fast actually. Congrats.
What size and spacing are your front tires? I'm needing a set for my supra before the race season.

3.54s make the 6 spd gears useable. Unless if you rev to 9500 rpms then 3.73s might be useable.

Nice drifting last night sean! :bigthumb:

Wrong!!!!! The 3.54 make the 6 speed more usefull, The higher the number the shorter the gears..... The MKIV have 3.10 final gear ratio & the JDM have a 3.23...

How is he wrong? He exactly what you said. He also added that with a higher rev range, that the 3.73s would viable.

How can you dispute that?

lol.. yea you guys didnt think i could drift down the 1/4 mile..hahaha. did you guy get and video? i have video, but i dont want to post that..lol

actually when i had the 3.73 gearing in there it wasnt bad. with the 3.73 gears i finished in 4th at about 8300rpm with 26in tires with the 3.54 i finished at about 7600-7900 rpm with the same size tires. it helps i am sure, but it wasnt to bad, for me at least.

had to add a funny vid for jeff and jeremy

this was the last track day for the year, so there was alot of cars out. and alot broke, so there was 5-6 of us that went out. mario (sc300 76mm) tissimo, victor and denny from f&h, nero (porsche) aaron, etc.

well the slick tire cars didnt start running until 930-945 (track opened at 6) this was due to to many cars breaking and stuff. so my first pass with the new 27' hooisers, 13.5psi in the tires, so i ran, launched ok hit second and it faced the wall. as you can see. i still has it at 8psi leaving 21psi in first and i tried to raise it slightly to 25psi in 2nd-4th..
i need to raise the boost back up on the anti-lag since the new tires bite much harded and made it bog.

the next time we got to run the track was already closed and we were in line so we went. track was wet from dew settling on the track. Mario who usually runs pretty consistant 9.5's to 9.7's went a 12.7.. so i was really nervous.
i checked the tire pressure and it was really low, about 10psi... i lowered the boost back to 21 and went for it.

well back to the drawing board..

here is what the 27's look like.. forgive the dirty car, havent washed it in a few weeks.
