Mellowdien -> S197 GT VS JDM Toyota Mark 2 GTB - Seeking Revenge! Nitrous?.. (5/5/2008 6:52:51 PM)
|
Okay, so probably none of you guys have heard of a Toyota Mark 2 GTB. It's a sedan, with a 2.5liter VVT-i turbocharged engine. People say it's the old supra 1JZ-GTE engine with some minor modifications. I raced a few stock ones with my 350Z and GT, and beat most (lost to a few with the Z, beat all stock Mark 2's with the GT). Anyway, some guys thought it'd be fun to watch me run with another one so with having experience beating them i don't pay much attention to the driver and just line up. He and his crew said he was stock with the exception of freeflow. As soon was we launched he immediatly starts pulling away, normally i expect their turbo's to kick in my the end of 2nd gear. He smoked me with about 6 car lenghts, it was the most brutal slaughtering i've ever had. Me being the only American Muscle car in the dragracing scene, his crew was literally rolling on the floor laughing at my to them "HUGE" 4.6liter engine. Before the race they were all like "don't worry it's friendly" and afterwards they were talking ****. Which really pissed me off. So now, seeing i'm looking into modding my car for real anyway, i decided to install a safe Nitrous set-up. I desperatly need to see, high 12's. Looked at brenspeed.com and with no earlier experience with nitrous, it seems i need ALL of the parts available; 150-shot Zexkit, dualfuelpump, bottleheater/holder, blowdowntube, purgekit etc. I need advice, which parts to i need to have a consistently safe nitrous set-up. Also, how does the autogearbox hold up against the 150 extra hp? Sorry about the long post, Cliffnotes: S197 GT slaughtered by JDM Toyota Mark 2 GTB (obviously modded) Mark 2 Driver + Friends act like dickheads Mellowdien, pissed and seeking revenge Nitrous set-up advice... ANYONE?? BTW, we raced twice, but my friend only recorded the second race, where i let off as soon as he started to pull beyond 4 car lenghts. Still have to upload on youtube, expect it tomorrownight.
