I ran a 15.9 with some horrible tires and the mods listed below if that helps you any.

aqwkmf · 08-28-2002, 08:52 PM

im hoping a 16.5....anyone think thats possible or am i f'in crazy

KiDyNomiTe · 08-28-2002, 09:05 PM

N/A Eclipses are prety week, and I have been told that Premium gas don't help on 240s.

The best guess on your times I can give you is 15.5 - 17.5. It all depends on your skill, he still has a chance, if you are a bad driver or have an auto, and he has a 5 speed.

aqwkmf · 08-28-2002, 09:08 PM

both 5 speed.

I'm *guessing* with the SOHC, 16.3-16.8 assuming a half decent launch.  Should be a close race.

aqwkmf · 08-28-2002, 10:46 PM

would removing the ps belt and mechancal fan cut a tenth off my time?

Dont think so, just try taking out your spare tire, all seats, and only have about 1/4 tank of gas or less. This should help a little.

SprungScorp · 08-29-2002, 12:54 AM

or you can go the way of that white sentra and strip the car of everything execpt the engine, the seat, and the tires

Try doing some launches and when you get them down race his ass. Thats one strong point of the sx. She launches pretty well.

            P.S. make sure theres no cops around when you race they suck :!:

aqwkmf · 08-29-2002, 10:26 AM

well i intend to race him on the track. i've raced him from a green light to ~65mph 3 times he cant touch me off the line. 1 time i bogged down in first gear(let out to fast and didnt rev) but i caught him in 3rd.

*ca18guy* · 08-29-2002, 12:13 PM

According to my calculations, my guess is you will run about 22.5@45 mph  give or take a second or two  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

SR20Fastback · 08-29-2002, 12:50 PM

Just take his ass to the track, if you start to have doubts... let some air out of his front tires, not all but most  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
