Any autoboxs been down the 1/4 yet???

[Grey-Rolla]

So anyone been downt the qauter yet??? :D

Im just curious

[Saiya]

Theres an ex member here who had an Auto Corolla who went to the drags, Ive spoken to him on MSN I might have to check when I get home on what his run was.

YDOIT4 knows who he is but thats the only person that I know of who has gone down in an auto.

I wouldn't mind going down the drags just to see how mine does.

[BigBum]

Negatron got a 17.4 in his ascent. I got a 17.6. The autos are a good 1 to 2 seconds slower.

[Suprathai]

The gear ratios are too long, but then again it is a 4 speed auto. I would say a good second slower.

[Grey-Rolla]

Wats been done to ur car bigbum and negatron??? ur cars arent stock right? :P

[BigBum]

My car was stock as a rock in terms of performance mods. Negatron had an SRI and stivo catback I think.

Negatron was rockin the heavy as chromies. I was running full street trim with a lot of extra weight lol.

[Grey-Rolla]

Interesting i wonder how hard it would be for an auto box to get sub 15 results keke

:D hmmmmz

[SyxXPaC]

The autos in the U.S with TRD superchargers get around 16 flat

[Suprathai]

Flat 16s with supercharger only right?? Add an exhaust, CAI and some fuel management and an auto should be able to get close to mid fifteens

[DuGong]

i reckon i could get 16s with my current set up.. wanna try it one day though...

[DHC09]

Yea im quite keen to see what time i can get with my ces cai + sportivo exhaust combo

since we're on the topic of autoboxes (instead of starting a new thred) has anyone changed their auto-trans oil? in the booket they said theres no need to change under "normal conditions" at my last service after a track day they said the oil is fine... so yeah.. just wondering if anyones changed it, if so what did u use. Cheers

well ladies stop talking about it and head down to WSID and see what your beast is made of .....

more than happy to pit crew for anyone ..... and considering they are now open 2 nights a week after our last trip there was almost no one there and u could have gotten almost 10 runs in if u were there from the beginning of the night .....

[Grey-Rolla]

16 flat with a supercharge is abit slow i think...consider they use crappy fuel over in the us.....

:D

[selyaT]

What sort of launch do you bad boys do???

[Grey-Rolla]

:P I use to do nuetral launches but thats a no no i was told, i did a very good launch once, while holding break and acceleration, the car just took off and never boged, but i dont know how i did it, that run i got 9.2 on the gtech and my car was stock. Never did the same launch since haha. but i think 2500 to 3000k is gonna anything higher will be too much wheelspin.

[SyxXPaC]

I put the challenge up to the Auto's

I dont think you could get an Auto to do 16's N/A

Prove me wrong. :) WSID is open tomorrow afternoon?? Comon Voy!!

[DuGong]

Syxxpac... i guess u got to wait till the new year(well thats wat his been telling me)... his supposedly got something brewing in that rolla... so.. watch out guys.

hahahaha....

[Suprathai]

Go Voy!!!

16's will be too easy for him...16.9....

now 15's is something different altogether...

[Azza]

I guess though, if you have a decent CAI/Exhaust setup and can get traction, then throw a decent launch in there....I can't see any reason why a decent 15 something isn't possible. As long as your box isn't rooted, then anything is possible....

[YDOIT4]

The way i see the drags is not about street trim or street chrome tires

I say that you get yourself some light steelies with either semi's or slicks on them in a 15" tire strip the car out including the back seats spare and tools with any other amps subs and other little things that isnt needed then take out all of the content from the glove box and centre console storage compartment.

Then after you have done all of that you have nothing to say that you cant get traction or anything stopping you from getting a good time except for PEBSWAS (Problem Exists Between Steering Wheel And Seat)

So you can only blame yourself for the times you get and not your car as it cant get any loss of traction and their is no weight to stop you car from performing

So go all out when you go to the drags you dont do it everyday so make a day of it and GO FOR IT!!

be seeing you all at the next drag day whenever it is maybe in the new year

[CHA54]

I highly doubt you'd get a 15 out of an auto 1ZZ, there is quite a bit more drivetrain loss when using an auto box compared to a manual box. My guess would be a high 16 at best with stripped car, CAI and exhaust.

Small capactiy NA 4cyl auto's are never fast at the strip.

agreed!!!

i think high 16 max!!

15s will only happen with good setup and TRD supercharger. it still will only be high 15s. Considering a manual can get 15.7 with just cai and exhaust you see the advantage of manual over auto :)

But im happy for someone to prove me wrong.

In regards to voy. I think Camcon, CAI, zorst and pulleys will get him a 17 flat

[Saiya]

Voy, let me know when you do go to WSID ill come with, im curious to know what my stock auto would get :D

[GAZOOM]

Id be keen for a run next time a WSID

A little off the topic but on the Ozmazda forum one bloke in a SP20 is claiming consistent runs of high 15's.

He didn't post his actual slips but I have read in this forum that 1zz's give the sp23 a run for their money so how can a sp20 do these times.

http://www.ozmazdaclub.com/forums/3-discus...ighlight=intake

What you guys reccon a bit of BS on the Mazda forum?

[SyxXPaC]

ive seen a bloke with an sp20 with intake zorst and some other minor mods do a 15.9 at wsid. Its possible

Thats about the same time a stock Mazda 3 (Newer one) can do. An SP23 would be close to mid 15's
