Wanted to borrow some good tyres for dyno run only !!


Recommended Posts

Hey guys as it states I'm chasing some good decent tyres or hard tyres for a dyno run so I can get it tuned in 4th. I have archillies on at the minute and they just smoke.

 

Willing to to pay I beers or cash !!

That stuff is the reason drag strips are sticky. You get the car on the dyno, spray a little bit of that stuff onto the tyres while the cars idling in 1st and let it roll for a little to spread out on the rollers and tyres. Then do your run/runs. It's not a cure all but if the car is strapped down as hard as you can and it's still spinning it helps.

Yeah I have asked tuner and it's a no go with using that on the dyno

    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
    • Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
    • Interesting, I've heard complete opposite on my end. Bit of a lottery I guess.
