As of right now my 787b has ran 8.1 still it screaming for a 7 but my main focus is on this 02 rx7 running 8.6 i just might get it to run faster. Photos will be uploaded later on today. As for the spring rate i will be putting that up with the photos later on today.

Very cool. And look! ^^ Punctuation! Correct spelling! Is it really that hard?
 
Poll edited & thread cleaned of superfluous garbage.

@ mafia_boy & Codename L: If you don't have anything on-topic to contribute, please don't hestitate not to bother in future. Thanks. ;)

It was on-topic. He made an incorrect poll and I pointed it out, quite bluntly. There's nothing against the AUP on doing that. :) Maybe if I swore at him but not for correcting him. But now that you have fixed the poll up I will contribute something to this as I've already tested this.

Now I could just give the results I had and that ends the thread almost instantly there but I'll give him a goal of what range they reach on the 1/4 and see what he comes up with because he is a bit slower on the 1/4 than the top guys at the moment, as evidenced by his RX7 attempts. 👍

They will both range in the low-mid 10's mazdaman, I won't say who wins though but they both get amazing acceleration with a TCS of 7 and only moderate ballast to help your times out.
 
Well any updates i will now be joining the 300mph club also i will be going on the tuner list of the 1/4 mile pass.

Guys, enough. SH has already spoken to us on this issue and said if it's not on-topic to leave the fella alone. ;) Don't wreck his garage for him, we've already had a go about his horrible spelling, grammar and punctuation and I even responded in PM about it. :) He is trying, and we may have to take into consideration things like he has dyslexia possibly. So leave him be and cut it out after the dotted line. ;)

How's the testing between the Cosmo & Skyline anyway Mazdaman??
 
Well i have ran the cosmo impressive numbers with race hard tires,ill check to see what more i can push outta it. So far its ran 12.2 without r5s so im happy. And i need your help in launching can you give some advice?? pm me if you can
 
Nah, it's cool....I don't mind giving help to others in public either, that's why I'm the Grease Monkey. ;) And this will give the others an opportunity to redeem themselves and actually help you IF you're willing to be a bit more humble about things regarding the RX7 issue. :)

What's the main problem regarding your launching?? Is it bogging down, frying tyres, explain the problem so we know where you're going with this. Put in some stats like what's your TCS figure, are you using ballast, what's the spring rates, etc. We can come together to help you out.
 
Ok well i cant go on my game right know but i can tell you that the gear ratio is messed up. Im toping speed at 160-170 in the 1/4 mile im wondering is it that i have to much weight at the back 250 ibs and also TCS is set at 0.
 
You need to space the gear ratios out more. I'm taking the safe guess that's 160-170km/h you're meaning because even I didn't get to 160mph on the 1/4. :lol:

TCS is another thing. You need it for the best performance on the 1/4 but get rid of ASM. You can get around it using the 'phantom' clutch but it still doesn't get you all the way there. Better tyres too, just go R3's, then to R5's.

Ballast, that only goes up to 200 but you don't need that much. Say 100kg instead, 125kg at most with the balance at +50 so it's all at the rear. The Cosmo is pretty light anyway so too much weight screws it up.
 
Ahhh. So, now you've come to me on this to face them. Hmmm.

TCS is your #1 issue. #2 issue, ballast needs to be +50 on balance. #3, Downforce at 0/30. And #4, gearing needs to be spaced out a lot more. I know that 295-300km/h is more than possible (183-188mph) as I was getting that in a Bathurst R, let alone the Spirit R.

What's the suspension settings??
 
Well the spring rate min. the rear min + 1.5 shock bound front 1 rear 5. Shock rebound front 1 rear 10 stabilizers front 4 rear 5
 
And Height? You need to have an old-school setup. Raised up on the front. ;)

Dampers are way too soft on the front and back. Max bound and rebound on front, max rebound on rear. Spring rate is similar...hard front, softish rear.

Stabilisers are pretty right.
 
Spring rate is similar...hard front, softish rear.

I disagree. ;)

Soft as possible front, soft as useful rear. Test turning up the rear with the transmission on automatic (for consistency's sake), and stop when it stops going quicker.

Softer front spring rate means quicker (and more) front extension, which makes for more rearward weight transfer, which in t urn makes for more traction.
 
Not always, but it seems to be the case with the RX7. ;) I know with the GT-R Proto it's Max/Min for spring rates. :)
 
Try both and see which one suits the times better. ;) I know that I've got a decent setup for all RWD's. It's not the fastest like RJ's RX7 tune but I've been testing it on all other RWD's and it works in one way or another and gets me times that are up there with the others. My Viper time is proof of that. 👍
 
Hey this question is to any one who can answer.What is the difference with the s5 turbo and the s4 turbo other than the 1hp difference.Is the s5 turbo better or the s4???
 
The power curve is the difference.

Buy both, and watch what happens to the power curve with each installed. Then make your decision.

Stage 4 turbo is generally more powerful, but its power curve is spikier, which means employing this power is trickier. Also, there's more turbo lag in a Stage 4. 💡 But once you nail the peak area , there is more power. It's just been compartmentalized in a smaller area.

The Stage 5 doesn't have as much maximum power, but the torque/power curve has been spread out over a greater number of revs (rather than compartmentalized to a narrower area as in a S4).

The main difference is: a STage 5 might be easier to use if you're at a track where there's lots of up-and-down type driving (Autumn Ring, for instance, or any of the off-road tracks) because there is less turbo-lag with a Stage 5. Power hits in a smoother fashion, and is therefore easier to employ. There's not as much chance of a "jerk" once that turbo kicks in...
 
Another thing, just because it has a higher output doesn't mean it's going to be faster, cars can be made to act like dyno queens. Check the low range power and torque of the Stage 5 turbo compared to the Stage 3 or Stage 4 turbo.

Why did I include the Stage 3 aswell?? Because on cars like the STi Spec-C, Integra DC5R & Lancer Evo's, you can't buy Stage 4 but Stage 5 is available. ;) Check a Stage 3 turbo vs a Stage 5 turbo on those cars aswell as comparing the S4 vs S5 turbos on Supra's, GT-R's and 300ZX's.
