guy_from_nerks 4dr build thread...the quest for 10's

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

Haha, same here. Sometimes that's how great friendships are started! :beer:

Roflmao funny you say that, 90% of my friends hated me when they first met me cause they thought I was an asshole lmfao.

It is fun at times having a dad who drag races, other times it gets annoying because all the shit talking lol

 

[DarkAngelGSR]

Guess my statement was 100% accurate hahaha. We can take our convo here instead of intruding on that dudes all motor ?'s. haha

I'll look for the pics I have when my AVR gets fixed, I'm on my laptop till I can use my desktop again. Long story, some might be on my build page. dunno, been too long.

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

7/24/11: 12:30am me and my buddy are in the garage and get the great idea to build an overflow tank to replace the stock one that I had to slap back on the car for the track. A barb nipple, some hose and a NOS energy drink bottle leater, we had an overflow can haha!!

Axles here we come, lol

I'm sure guy here already knows this but pre-loading the clutch will save tremendous strain on the axles. there is a guy in frankfort, ky pushing i think like 6 or 700hp (i know its above 450-5) and rocked stock axles for the past 2 years (never broke either one) and the only reason he put in driveshaft shop axles was because someone gave him a free set lol

 

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

Yeah i am gonna preload the shit out of the car and hope for the best. Some people have gotten away with stock axles for years, while others have snapped em doing burnouts in the water box. I am currently gathering up used axles and going to be giving them to my buddy who can get them exchanged for new, that way I have a nice supply of them once I start breaking shit lol

 

[Wickit]

Wow, just amazing.

 

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

Thanks!

 

[nathan_carmona]

i was going to do that with a nos bottle too!

 

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

Lol, wait til you see the new baby on board sticker I am about to make later today. My buddy (same one that was here last night) owns a professional printing machine so we can pretty much make any sticker we want.

 

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

7/25/11: A buddy of mine has the equipment to print stickers in his shop so I headed over there tonight to hang out and make some stickers. We made a custom baby on board sign for my Integra Notice the attention to detail, yes the turbo's do say Precision in them lol. While sitting there we started talking and we are going in together on making and selling custom and off the shelf stickers for people together. So if you need anything done hit me up via pm, price is dependant upon size and what your wanting exactly. But we can make anything. Check us out on facebook as well and add as friend and like us!!

To the pics!!

Here is my buddy Robby "weeding" the sticker, basically using tweezers to eliminate all the extra pieces that aren't going to be used for the sticker

After that was done this is what was left:

And finally here it is on the car:

This may be noobish, but what is pre-loading?

 

[Kiakid]

step one: pull up ebrake holding the button in so the ebrake does not lock on you.. Pull the ebrake up as far as you can..
step two: bring the clutch out till it BARELY starts to grab, too much and you will burn you clutch up.
step three: hit the 2step by going full throttle ( if you do not have 2step (launch control) then just find a good launch point, in my teg i usually launch about 3.5k)
step four: release the ebrake
step five: release the clutch out completely the second you feel your car move.


Now, if you trying to do this on a single disc clutch, it won't work as well. You will burn the clutch up quicker. This pre-load method is more towards cars with twin or triple plate clutches
