whats your 1/4 mile time?? Options

[StreetRacing10PS...]

just wondering what some of you 1/4 mile times are if any 1 has ever brought their celica to the track. iam hoping to get my 7afe to around low to mid 14's as soon as i recive my turbo in about a week or so.

[dstrbcelica]

i didn't wanna know..so i didn't ask them.

-dstrb

[Defgeph]

97 7afe intake, no muffler, stock wheels, full interior, box in the back.
17.9 @ Etown. Beat playr158's celi with that time. haha

I have a feeling that I'll be much faster this year.

[Blakout16]

im wondering how mine will run with : cai, header, 2.25 inch full exhaust with a gutted cat, light 17" rims with great tread, brand new clutch and flywheel... hey along the lines of this... what else can i get for a simple bolt on and such? (st)

[amysmojo]

I really dont wanna know my 1/4 mile time lol

[tomazws]

My quarter mile record time is around a minute or two, maybe three... really depends on traffic on the freeway


Now quarter mile track....hmmmm... I don't think my car could even qualify.

[chucho]

i'm running a 9.8 in my celica


NFSU 2 that is

[Mr_E]

Don't know. I'd guess at high (very high) 13's if I launch right.

About 3 weeks if I launch wrong.....

[Blakout16]

lol i love gt4's they're sooo fast

[Digndoug]

Imm gunna go for 17 somthing.. prollt more towards 18.. these cars are just slow..

[StreetRacing10PS...]

I just bought NIK's turbo kit. he said he had around 170HP to the wheels with it, i cant wait to take it to the track and see what it runs.

[GT4WRC]

When I get around to buying a lightened flywheel and uprated clutch kit and get it fitted, a trip to the drag stip is definately in order I think in the GT-FOUR. As per Mr_E, somewhere in the 13 sec bracket should be easily attainable.

Managed a 14.01 in my FWD Rover on a slightly damp strip a while back. Soooooooo close to that 13.? Mind you, when the car is running again, I expect very low 13s at least. 300+bhp in a 1000kg car with a close ratio straight cut gearbox should be interesting to say the least

[javi714]

wow I didn't know they were so slow

[right][snapback]272006[/snapback][/right]

you might wanna get 15'' wheels
you won't be fast in the qm with 17's

you also might want to consider buying a z-06 vette or srt-10 viper for a quick qm

[2003cbgts]

we might be a lil slow, but damn we look great doing it:)

[ghostdog]

what does it matter? 17, 16, 15's are still slow .. just gives us more incentive to turbo or swap

wow I didn't know they were so slow
[right][snapback]272177[/snapback][/right]

[Insanity-74]

Started off with high 14`s managed to get down to mid 13`s last time I ran 1/4 mile. After having more time to get more used to the car and perfected the launch??? who knows, probably the same. Doubt I`ll get much quicker without some mods.

[dans_st]

I ran 16.72 without my turbo in Penwell,TX will run as soon as I get turbo

[kevstir]

15.7 sec 90.4 mph , 3S-GE with k&n57i kit , decat and still had the 17's on

hoping to get it down the next time as iv got the gt4 bonnet on there which has made a big difference in lowering the under bonnet temps plus going to put the stock 15's back on as there a good bit lighter than my 17's

[boosted_K2]

14.1 last year... this year im guessing mid to high 13s with a little more practice.

EDIT: launch was at 3000 RPMS and out of boost

[Hanyo]

we should make a sticky of peoples official 1/4 times.

i'll let you guys know my time over the summer

[SlowCelica94]

16.5 on blown rear struts, which owned by 60" times. I had 2.3 sixty, unpreped track, launching @ 4,400rpm

[rjbibeau]

16.3 just intake, a can, and gutted cat.

[trdevelopment]

17.4 with intake
16.9 when i was on the 50 shot bottle

[6gc_driven]

there was a 6gc at battle of the imports in orlando doing Low 8's at 175 mph in a 1/4 mile...pretty sick huh..but it still 2nd place, it got beat by a 1st gen rx-7, which was runnin 8.03.

[celica3sgte]

13.7

2nd gen 3s swap
fmic
3" downpipe
3" exhaust
slicks


I'm bringing the car and the new setup to the track on May21st. Hoping for high 12's

[Mr2_Joel]

celica3sgte: what is ur boost at?

someone w/ the same mods and all as me ran 13.4, but I think I'd be around 13.7/13.6 maybe. I'll know at the end of april

[boosted_K2]

what do you have done joel?

[right][snapback]273533[/snapback][/right]

i hope u get result since thats my birth day ha!

[97sccelica]

car: 245awhp WRX

1/4 mile: not fast enough for my liking

more mods to come

speed is addicting, people say they will be happy with 14's. then they want 13's. then 13's feel slow and you look at the 12's and say that would be good, but low 12's high 11's would be great

and so on.

having ridden in my friends 5.4l turbo mustang, my WRX will never be fast enough

[boosted_K2]

the 14.0 mark seems very slow to me now in a streight away

i agree, a family friend had a 68 nova that ran 9s, which was never really fast enough for his liking

[javi714]

anyone here has a supercharged celica and how fasr is running

[97sccelica]

[right][snapback]273733[/snapback][/right]

exactly, the speed lust never ends

i cant wait to get a ride in my friends mustang when he switches to automatic and tunes it for c16(it currently makes 650rwhp on 91 octane CA gas and 9psi)

oh, its also a convertable

[celica3sgte]

I set the boost controller at 14psi but only saw 12-13 that day. ??? My 60 ft times were terrible. My best was a 2.3 which is terrible. That would have made up for a few tenths.

Thats my ex's birthday too, and I have similar mods I'm hoping to break 13's this summer.

13.7 is still good. With practice low 13s are within range.

[Mr2_Joel]

what do you have done joel?
[right][snapback]273715[/snapback][/right]

Apexi Power Intake
Apexi GT-Spec Exhaust
Fidanza Flywheel
Spec 3 Clutch
Greddy Turbo Timer
Phantom Boost & A/F Gauges
17" rims
Slotted/Drilled Rotors
H4 Headlight Upgrade
Twos r' us MBC @ 15psi

honestly don't have any idea what i'll run. I know it'll be atleast 14.0, but I hope and anticipate a lot better. We'll see

[boosted_K2]

i dont have much more than you and ran a 14.1 (btw i suck at drag racing, more of a autocross guy). i didnt launch it either... im sure high 13s are within reach... i really need to replace my midpipe and rear section and get something thats 3" turbo back to go along with my downpipe. how do you like the GT spec exhaust? i was leaning towards getting the HKS hiper...

[Mr2_Joel]

yeah i'll be launching it like crazy
i'm aiming for 13.7 or so, that's my ideal goal.

the gt spec is nice, but so is the hiper. Have you checked out Madpsi.net's exhaust database? they have some pretty decent reviews and a few sound clips of some of them. i don't think they have a clip of the gt spec, I might be able to grab one today w/ the ttops off, as it is nice outside

what mods have ya got?

[Mr2_Joel]

oh man u should be running faster than 14.1 for sure. that exhaust and K&N fliter might be holding you back a little, but you should be a lot faster. Might i suggest apexi intake and for exhausts, take ur pick:
http://www.madpsi.net/MR2ExhaustsPage.htm


also how do you like the DP, notice a decent amount of gain? I think I might just hold out for big mods until next summer then go w/ The Speed Factor's kit or piece together my own.

[boosted_K2]

full 15PSI spool at 3k RPM is gravy thats really the most noticable attribute from the downpipe mod is getting rid of that cat pipe and opening it up lets the turbo spool up REAL quick, it dropped by about 500 RPMs just from that one mod, but i must warn its quite the PITA to install, but its not bad if you follow the KO racing DP install instructions.

and yes, im disappointed in my drag racing abilities with a 14.1 the major reasons for this were 1) 3k RPM start wont get you very far, and 2 i would not let the clutch slip, so it bogged a bit.... this summer im going to just let it all out and make a few runs without worrying about the car just to see what happens. that and i hope to be going to a dyno day a little later this spring, should be hoping for something around 220 at the wheels would be nice

are you talking about the speed factor's garrett turbo that they are making a direct bolt on with some sort of crazy 400HP projection with? that should be pretty sick!

haha yeah, i might just hold out for it. I dunno, I'm getting anxious to spend my money. I might just go w/ a Greddy 20g kit. No money though, gotta love loans. Yeah i say balls to the walls on ur car. See what it's really capable of

a downpipe should always be the first mod on a turbo car

i hit 17psi at 3200rpm, even in 1st and 2nd. stock WRX's hit ~14psi (10psi in 1st and 2nd) at about the same RPM, but they dont have a FMIC like i do

if you want to end your bogging issues with out slipping the clutch a lot, get a 2 step installed in your mr2.

my UTEC has it built in and i recently activated it, i make 10psi sitting at the line, and i get too keep the gas pedal down through shifts(my 2 step is activated by depressing the clutch) that should really help me get down the 1/4 mile

on a side note, the car shoots REAL big flames now!

Wow Tim I didnt know you had so much done.

I should be getting my 3'' Aussie in a few days And having a 3'' turbo back exhaust within the month. With the E153 LSD Im hoping for low 14s high 13s.

boosted 2k: You should be making more than 220whp with a ct20b. You should be making 240-260whp at 15-17psi with the basic mods. You can pretty much put down 220whp with stock everything besides full exhaust and high boost on the ct26.

[boosted_K2]

i question the condition of my 20B, though ive checked both hot and cold sides of it and it seems perfectly fine... id really like to see some compression tests of my motor... everything looks feels, and sounds like its working properly, it just seems so sluggish to me, i really need to tune it most likely, i think my ECU is really limiting all the capability.

[Mr2_Joel]

boosted K2: I have some sound clips of the exhaust in neutral, and a clip of 0-80, you can hear it somewhat. It's hard to hold the camera, shift, and drive at the same time

[boosted_K2]

email plz k2celica97@aol.com

if you have aim hit me @ k2mr2t91 anytime, love to chat!

[Mr2_Joel]

i'll just transfer it to u over aim tonight or something. just send me something when u get in

[boosted_K2]

awesome, you are making me rethink my HKS hiper system, guess its going to come down to whatever i can get a better price on, since they both are found at very similar prices.

i am really hoping for high 13's or low, low 14's when iam done wit my car by the end of the summer. if i dont hit 13's, i might have to say bye bye to the celi, or do a 3sgte swap
