01 gt crappy times

eclipse1989 · 08/09/2008, 10:44 PM

i went to the track last night and ended up with a 15.608. very unhappy. i have I/H/E. i didn't get my tune yet so hopefully this will help if not the shits coming off.

what set of headers do you have?

I wouldn't get too upset with things. My first run was a 16.6
3 times at the track later im at a 15.3.
You need a Driver mod. Takes practice. Gl.

You got what you pay for. How many times have you ran the eclipse?

eclipse1989 · 08/10/2008, 12:05 AM

yea i know .. it was my 2nd time with my 3g. the first time i ran it ..i encountered some bad wheelhop ...lol..and blew my tranny. that was when i was stock. i was really nervous about getting on the track again. i had a 2.43 60ft idk how much better i can get with this car hopefully 2.2. i had a 2g that i ran just about every weekend running 16.0-16.1 with a 2.2 60ft and this car has so much more potential i know it can do better than a 15.608

Ummm...really.....not to rain on anyone's parade. But this car really doesn't have that much potential. I mean, potentially it does. But you would be much better off dumping your money into your 2g.

Tx4Codeman · 08/10/2008, 12:20 AM

it's only the 2nd time with the eclipse.. you need to have a better feel for the car. improvements to come as long as you get out there.

eclipse1989 · 08/10/2008, 12:54 AM

yea i plan on getting out there pretty often to work on my lauching .. by the way i sold that piece of shit 2g ...420a= junk my friend has a 00 fed spec gt with a intake and muffler running a 15.3.. and also have a friend who has a acura rsx-type s.. that i handle everytime when he gets on side of me so thats fast enough for me..so thats enough potential for me

Practice practice practice... You should be able to get into the 15.0 to 15.3 range. I can run 15.3's pretty consistently with my 01 GT manual, 15.0 under great track conditions
