First I'd like to say that your post is the perfect example of what deserves + reputation !



The 53$ were never in the plan , I was just curious And about the Greddy I saw that they are universal, but the price is really good...



1.I sit on 15 inch 195/50 semi slicks and at least for now I'm not gonna change that, so I want to go low as much as possible for city driving.



2. Yep, we have really "nice" winters. Freezing cold and a lot of snow.



3. The tib is my everyday car.



4. Drag race and some track days, but mostly drag.



Adjustable suspension is big plus.



Tonight I'll go out with the tib have some fun and if there is something interesting will I'll post it later

A little ifno from tonights tests :biggrin:



We were testing the tib ( no nitrous ) and bmw 325tds ( 148whp dyno tested ). Now the beemer is with methanol injection.



Using dynolicious we first tested the bmw - without methanol 142whp and 161whp with methanol

60-130km/h - 10.00sec without meth and 8.46sec ( we took 60-130 cause it was wet )



The tib before the P&P head was around 90whp And now it's 116whp

60-130km/h - 9.42sec



I don't know how real these results are... I was holding pretty good the iphone when we were testing the bmw, but it was mounted at the cup holder when I was driving the tib. I'm sure that it's better if somebody is holding it for u than just put it in the cup holder.



The most interesting thing for me is the difference 90-116whp after the head work!



There is big difference now. The tibby is running really nice even from low rpms

Good, IF you have alot of snowy winters, i will say go with coil overs, it is nice to have that adjustablitlity, and the stiffness for drag racing is easily adjustable with coils! I say sir, you need coilovers! cheap reliable ones to get the job done, go with Ksport Pro's! and or if you can find them the B'G but there oinly semi adjustable, only ride hieght! you cant adjust for camber or dampening!

My car specs, AirRam mani, RSide throttle body, custom Monster Green tops flow like a 65lbish! Head is ported running stock cams and 1mm over size valves. Block is just Cp pistons, some Eagle H Beam rods, Toda High performance oil pump, Acl Race bearing, plus a ARP kit for rod studs, head studs, and main caps.



Turbo kit, 57 trim, 48 ar, 2.5 hot pipes, 3" cold pipes, 28x14x4 FMIC, 3" exhaust, Tail 38 mm wastegate, Tial 50mm BOV, All tuned by a AEM Fic 1910!



Sticky tires Potenza RE760's There f*cking sick and actually keep you planted pretty good!



0-60 times= I dont race from Digs, it is pointless, i would wheel spin past 60 if i wanted, i usually start from a roll like 40ish.



1320 time= really depends on track setup, I ran low 12's with a track setup nice, a good sticky line is a must to launch. I use 8.5 slicks on Fx Wheels. They hook great but stick are pron to wheel spin, if the track isnt setup well, or launch to hard!
