I was also at the track this weekend, and ran a 14.59 @ 94.0mph naturally aspirated. The temperature was only about 45 degrees and my car would not hook-up at all. I left the starting line around 2000rpm, when I should be leaving at 3000rpm. The car has really responded to the last couple mods, which I will post dyno numbers after this weekend (JBA ceramic headers - new addition). I am expecting no less than 220rwhp and 250rwtq, because the car has already put down 215rwhp and 244rwtq. The car should have run 14.30's @ 95.0 mph this weekend, but small tires and cold weather were my enemy.
I will be working on getting an aluminum driveshaft soon, with safety loop and wider rear tires. With a couple of tweaks, it should go 14.0's at 97.0mph. This will be my goal over the winter months coming up soon. That will then be the end of mods, while I save money for the Vortech Supercharger kit. I look forward to seeing everyone at the track next season, and maybe we may see 13.99 if I'm lucky. It's been a fun 2006, and hope to see everyone soon.
P.S. - I will be buying 20" rims soon, so I will be selling my 6 month old Falken Koblenz (black) rims 18 x 8's and BF Goodrich KDW2 255/45-18 tires. They are in really nice shape, only about 7000 miles on them. I have over $1500 invested, looking for $950 out of them. Anybody interested, can email me at smithars724@yahoo.com.
Thanks!

Nice Job. Once you hit that 14, you wont stop there though. It gets addicting. You'll be pushing for those 13's. Thats why im just saving up for a new engine . (Possibly roush, or a v8 stock)
Yeah if you hit 13.99 you will be the first one without F/I but I wouldn't get my hopes up the only way I see you doing this is losing a BUNCHHHHHH of weight then maybe you could get close, but I wouldn't strip my car.....also when you get the twenty's on your going to lose a lot of time at the track because 20,s are a lot heavier and it's more tire to have to turn I would keep the 18's and spend the money on some drag radials (just my opinion though) good luck whatever you decide. What mods do you have now "if you don't mind telling". Plus you can pm boss244 he has about every bolt on there is and when his going to the track he strips a lot out of his car even his radio comes out lol (the shaker is about 8 pounds), but anyways i believe the best time he has got was 14.4399 at 93 mph so once again don't get your hopes up, but good luck
PHP did it with weight reduction, all of the bolt ons, slicks and launching at very high RPM's. For an auto car to go this route, I think a higher stall will be needed. But it is doable.

LoL skoal don't kill yourself, I would love to hit 13.99 without F/I, but at the same time I don't won't my car looking like the inside of the GTR neither

I love the interior of the GTR. It looks good and I (think) it would be practical for racing as far as weight goes, without exposing everything.

You will run slower with the20" rims for sure. Go back to lighter smaller rims and your 1/4 mile run will improve for sure
