14.5 @ 95mph

[89Turbo]

ok so i got it down a tenth, big woop, why is my car so damn slow, i agree part of it is that i have to lose boost going from 1st to 2nd to avoid rev limiter but i still can believe im running 14's, and i also know that Supra's are heavy as hell and my fat ass isnt helping that much but shouldnt i be in the 13's?

60'- 2.0

[xXxICExXx]

i did 14.6 @ 95.30mph lastnight and i pretty much have the same mods as you just + the BOV. However you are running those mickey thompson radials and if I had those on my car it would definately be low 14s. I dont know whats wrong with your tranny, I just stomp on it at the line and it red lines each shift without delay

[swarm]

14.33@100.44, first time out on the lights ever, first time racing this car.

haha I wish......mine was bone stock when i bought it lastyear. When i say bone stock, i'm not just talking about engine i'm talking original tape player and all. Apparently it sat for 10 years, just started up once in awhile to keep things flowing. Lots of $$ for my supra cause of the shape its in....thats some good times though, what are you running dude? that was my target goal but i failed friday night. I got 14.6 @ 95.30 ......if i had some slicks, that 100mph would be touchable. :icon_bigg

[s383mmber1]

Have you had your car tuned? It seems as if with all those mods, your right around the stock HP level.

Get rid of your stock downpipe and elbow if you still have em. They suck.

3in elbow with 3in Megan DP, it is around stock HP so should i be ok with these times until i get more power?

I really think that your auto tranny is KILLING you. You mentioned (and from other threads) that you have problems with it and you have to let off to go into second.

That kills your time.

Go R154 and learn to launch. 13's here you come!

[Jayhall]

well i dyno'd 311 rwhp with close to the same mods, but i hit boost cut on the dyno due to my shitty AFM. I also ran a 14.5, and for some reason now, im not getting the 13lbs of boost that i used to be getting, only 9.

[xXxICExXx]

3in elbow with 3in Megan DP, it is around stock HP so should i be ok with these times until i get more power?

considering that time is better than the stock supra when it was new and its a 17 year old car....yea you should be ok with them.

[billspreston01]

Hmmm...14.02 @ 101 K&N intake BIC ddp stock catback (gutted stock cat) on nitto 555r's (couldn't get them hot enough to stick) spinning tires in 1st when the boost started to build.

I'll tell you right now I used to run 15.00 allllll day long. Driving is a HUGGEEE part of drag racing. I can run 14.5's all day with the stock catback off and crappy tires. It's an easy 13.7 on the nitto's running open DP

No you shouldn't be in the 13's with your power level and weight. That is a decent ET for the mods. After you spend a few thousand to convert to 1JZ, you will still be running 14's.

[lagged]

fwiw i did 13.7 at 10 pounds of boost.

[s383mmber1]

All you really have is an intake and exhaust. If you throw in that your cars trannies not working correctly and your "fat ass";) i think you times are good.

You have the stock power level and your running jsut around stock 1/4th mile times!

Get a 57 trim, more fuel, up the boost and watch those numbers drop like a hard peice of crap.

[Nick M]

If you want to drop some more ET, drop weight, and get a higher stall torque converter.

itr206 has his 1J dynoed at 508 rwhp and 501 ft lbs. of torque, fyi. I think he's holding the record, but I could be wrong.

[gp-7mgte]

i ran a 14.931@94.69 my first run, R/T was .286 and 60ft was 2.260. second run was 14.957@95.91 R/T was .636 and 60ft was 2.380. mods are K&N intake, turbo back exhaust, & fidanza flywheel. oh and my fuel injector o-rings are leaking so i am running stuppid rich. i am on the stock clutch and stock dry rotted tires i got the car with, so i know i can go faster down the track. what do u guys think???

[upgradedsupra]

I ran a 13.7@100 in my bro's RHD 1J :)

Duane

[JoeC]

my bro ran a 13.7 on a stock auto tranny, un tuned maft pro, 3" elbow/ 3" exhaust, hard pipes, intercooler, 10-12 psi on bald street tires. He also blew his head gasket before the finish line and coasted over it. Full interior aswell.

The 13.7 I am speaking of has many mods

Here is the list of mods:

DP/exhaust
Driver aka ME :)

and to top it all off the 60 ft was not that great (1.96 IIRC) and I took my time shifting to 3rd since I don't normally drive the right hand drive car at the track. :biglaugh:

PS: The car is at full weight as well.

Ok, are you done rubbing it in our face? Huh?

:rofl:

[Boost Lee]

If you have not rebuilt your stock A340E and it has "a lot" or "some" minor problems of slippage, when you launch in 1st gear, make sure your switch is set to "NORMAL". It should shift a few hundred rpm's quicker than it would in "POWER". Once you get into 2nd, punch the button back into "POWER" so that your gears wrap out smoothly (unless you're having problems from 2nd > 3rd...

I just realized this. He is putting 234 to the wheels, that aint stock. If it was stock it would be about 190 to the wheels (17 years ago), even less now, plus its an auto so even LESS yet.:icon_razz

and the 60 ft of my brothers was 2.5/2.6, you also did not have a blown headgasket.

Nope as it was a 1J. I am not hurting on you dude so relax. I was just playin with you guys. I raced my bro's car but if it makes you feel better, he ran a best of 14.00 ;) This c.ar is pretty much stock remember and only a little 2.5

Duane

[JoeC]

1j tt though. Didn't they make more power stock to the wheels than the 7mgte?

[nosechunks]

ur first to second is the problem, i just ran a 13.8@99.4 this past saturday with a 2.0 60 foot, and all i have done is intake, 2.5 inch exhaust, tuned with maft gen2, and the accumulator mods to the tranny. also i have bfg drag radials and i was leavingthe line with about 3-4 psi.

my first run there i spun in first and had to let off, i ran a 14.5@99 and my 60 was 2.3. if u could fix the first to second problem u should be all set and ready to hit 13's.

get some drag radials, heat them up with a good burnout, and power brake the car atthe line to about 3 psi. u should be able to hit 13's.

[Derek1224]

I went 14.1 @ 95mph with only intake and 3" catback on Micheline Pilot Sport A/S's with a 2.0 60foot time. This at full interior with the car weighing in at 3485lbs running only 11psi. Nearly stock car. Then again, i've got a TT-R with the 4:10 Torsen LSD in back. :naughty: :biglaugh:

EDIT:

Now I have a 3" DP and Test Pipe I've added over the "drag off season" and now hitting boost cut. So once I get a boost cut eliminator I should be close to the mid to low 13's running around 15-17psi on street radials if I can catch traction in 1st and 2nd now.

[Sawbladz]

When my car was bone stock I ran a 15.5 at 93. This was my first time at the drag strip ever and I only made the one run. When I went back the next year I had a cat back and an intake. This time I ran 14.4 but I forget the MPH. I think with my mods that I have now I should be somewhere in the 13's. If not...the next mod will be a driver mod.:3d_frown:

For drag racing i'd go with the John Force mod over the Schumacher mod FTW.

[Supra]

The stock MKIII was ~232HP, not ~232RWHP. (266HP) He's not really 'at stock levels'. A decent tune should bring that up a bit more.

Thats true for north american MKIII's but not all of them. My JZA70 is 280hp and 263ft-lbs torque rated stock (not at the wheels), and the MKIII's that have the 2L I6 had 215hp rated. Just thought i'd add that, not sure if its relevant but its a good tidbit to know. :icon_bigg

[s383mmber1]

^^^

different engines maybe? ;)

[Derek1224]

^^^

sure are. 1JZGTE - 280hp 263ftlbs, 1GGTEU - 215hp ???ftlbs, 7MGTE - 232hp ???ftlbs

These all being factory rated so not at the wheels but rated flywheel hp.

[mattjk]

heh, when I had the 7mgte auto in my car, I did a 13.90 at 109mph.

very very slow launch ;)

Let see, I had a techtom rom board, hks cams, hks vpc, hks downpipe, stock ct26, 3inch exahust, and 14psi.

[SupraRacer]

in my old 87t i did a 14.2 @95 2.1 60ft with just a open downpipe , ngks, k@n, at 10-11psi. hitting fuel cut in 2nd :DOH: took me a few runs it kept creeping into fuel cut. first time at the track to. just my 2 cents

My Brother on my sn

[bewstman]

14.63 at 92 mph with a 2.1-60ft

only mods are ported stock turbo elbow, hks dp, and cutout..and shimmed wastegate 2 washers on 245 cooper zeon zpt's..

Not bad for me being a crappy driver and the track i was at...

[SupraDreamPDR]

i did 14.7 at 95.9 mph with K&N, DDP, testpipe, no cat. back, XTD Clutch/FW and all season tires. i was running with a boost leak also and the beginnings of a BHG.

[2543arvin]

ive been reading everyones comments on their times with their own mods. i will have my car back in about a month and i was wondering if anyone could let me have somewhat of an idea of what kind of numbers i should be seeing. i will have:
k&n intake
3.5 dp
2.5 catback
boost @10 lbs
aftermarket FMIC w/ 2.5 ss piping
walbro 255 pump
ngk plugs and wires
no egr
no ac
new oem clutch

3.5" Downpipe and 2.5" Catback? Ouch.

Given you have a reasonable launch, 14.2 to 14-5 should be what you'd be looking at.

As far as horsepower goes, probably 235-240rwhp.

i know, i bought the car with the 2.5 catback already on it and had already purchased the downpipe for the swap, so now i have to save up some money and complete the 3.5 turbo back.

[Derek1224]

You can get it done relatively cheap at a local muffler shop. I'm sure one could make you a catback for about 200 bucks if you supply the muffler.

[upgradedsupra]

If it traps at 100, you would be around 270ish depending on weight of car of course.

[Derek1224]

the beauty of running open downpipe is after you're done at the drag strip, just bolt the cat and exhaust back up and you're legal again. :naughty: :biglaugh:

WTF???? im readin all this and all these MKIII's are basically stock....i had a BONE stock MKIII turbo AUTO....wiit just exhaust done to it and my best time was 16.1......i live in ARIZONA.....but it feeels faster if i were to race u from a rollinng start..

Something to do with your gearing maybe? How was your launch and 60ft times on the 16 second run?

[tissimo]

I've done 14.3 at 95 stock with shims (10 psi falling to 7 psi)


Mosupra9 what was your trap speed? that'll tell you more if you car is making the power over the 1/4 mile time..

[2543arvin]

I've done 14.3 at 95 stock with shims (10 psi falling to 7 psi)
with a 7m or a 1jz?

[tissimo]

That was back when I had a 7m in my 91 turbo targa

that was a 2.0 60'

Fwiw stock I wnet 15.2 at 91 w/ a 2.2 60'

[supradavenz]

Maybe i just can't drag race.. but.. my best time was a 15 flat mostly stock standard asides 3" exhaust w/2 resignators and turbo muffler and 3" chrome elbow and a k&n 6" adapter air filter running around 10psi boost with a fuel controller. oh and a BOV.. traction was a bit of an issue.. running 255/40r17 rear's and 1st gear was almost a waste of time. any idea's about that guys? tips on what rpm to launch at (im running w58 box btw)

[stratoayu]

you guys have problems with your cars lol.
13.80 @ 101 mph with a 2.1 60 ft, 5 spd

3" from turbo back, hardpipes, mbc at 10 psi.
running SHIT 225/60/r16's
running low pro 17's at the track will never get you anywhere, and you have to slip the clutch off the line, i have my rpms around 3500 and let out like i do on the street, it leaves like abat outof hell.

[7MGTESUPRAMAN]

My first time running at the 1/4 mile track this Friday night was a 14.798 @ 92.24 mph. Only mod is a 3" exhaust from the factory cat.

[slow_yota]

Just curious..What does a totally stock 7mgte suppose to run?

[Boost Lee]

"SUPPOSE" to be like 15.2 or something of such...

But with a professional driver launching well, high 14 second ET's have been pulled off.

My Supra did 13.7 with FULL 3" exhaust and air filter a couple years ago.
