got a set of Falken Ziex ZE-512 tires for the front. Not the best tires in the world, be a heck of a lot better than what i have.
Tire Details - Discount Tire


my oil leak i sprang at the track last run is fixed. (timing cover gasket/front seal/switched to 5w30 synthetic)

surely i can break 13s now...

Going out tomorrow evening. Will have vids and pictures of cabled suspension.

TCS off, headlight out, correct PSI in tires (street tires will be fine at 26~ish), hardly any gas...get all the crap out of the car...

got it covered boss! :-p

what exactly does headlight out do? keep engine cooler?

Take the headlight out and the air from outside has a direct hit to your intake if its facing that way.

Yup, really used to help stock cars with the factory airbox...basically a ghetto/free ram air effect, if you will.

well for some reason i messed up the cable install. the cable clamps were rubbing my rear tires. i did everything the same as the write up. so i had to take off the cables. i didnt get a chance to pick up new shocks.

best i could do was a 13.9@101 with a 2.2 60'

im done until i get a tune and suspension done. Plus i think i my trans is getting weak. after that 13.9 pass it was lagging between shifts. so i called it a night. Took 4 passes to finally start figuring out how to launch it right. New tires helped a lot, thats for sure, but my busted rear shocks were still holding me back.

Also i had 0* KR from start all the way to the end of the run. looks like i can drop another pulley size, if i wanted.

No point in it though. i drive this car only twice a week now, to and from daycare. its gonna sit and chill until i can get a tune and suspension.

Im over it for now. It was disappointing on the cable not going right. oh well.


On a good note, i got 30mpg on the drive home (long... drive)
