ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

WEll The track opens Tonight(in an hour!!!), So I'm bringing the NA ZC civic for a some baseline runs. I put in new tranny fluid(Gm syncromesh) Reset my timing, new plugs(cheapo coppers) in preperatin for ass kicking.

I also did a compression test, I got 160 165 165 165, is this good? I actually feel ghetto, I can't believe my compression is this low, Should I still boost it?

I have a zc with Si trans, headers, full 2.5 exhaust, High flow Cat, Intake, Stripped interieur, Hard mounts, and normal shitty tires. Altitude is alittle high here(really cold out), What do you think I should Run?

I'll have pictures and videos Of canadian Styles Drag Racing when I Return, So be prepared!!!

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

why did you put GM oil in yor honda tranny? ???

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

that compression is fine, as long as they're not within, plus or minus 15 or 20 of eachother, they should be straight, however, your car is ------- gay and ghetto, so your compression is the least of your worries.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Yeah, GM synchromesh is definitely not good for our trannies, it has kerosene in it. I heard it isn't even that good for GM trannies.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Kerosene ??? I don't know where you heard that but all GM syncromesh is is 5w30 motor oil, I was told this by a transmission rebuilder, that is all they use for their transmissions, well the smaller ones anyways. There are alot of people that use the syncromesh not knowing the difference, but most people that I know using it in a honda says it works better. You gotta like the look on their face when you tell them they spent $30 for something that is only worth $9 :P

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Haha yes the paying 30$ for a 5$ item is funny ----. Kerosene.. bad? That stuff just cleans the tranny.. its not cathcing on fire in there... Geez

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Oh and depending on ur driving skills i say you run a 15.2 +/- .3

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

It's not 5W-30, read the ingredients, Kerosene is like number 3 on the list. What is the point of running that stuff through anyway. A manual transmission rarely gets gunked up enough to require Kerosene. When there is crap in a transmission it settles to the bottom and doesn't contact the gears anyway.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

You made it sound like it was bad for the tranny thats it.. i didnt say it was going to clean the gears

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Alright :)

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Ok, I just got back and all I could muster was a 16.1, and I'm pissed off. I heard from honda-tech that Gm syncromesh is awesome ---- for trannies, It works good, big difference.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

I payed 20 bucks for 3 litres(canadian) the GM syncromesh is synthetic and recomended by countless people on Honda-tech

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

yeah, I was hoping to atleast break the 15 second mark, but After ten runs I couldn't run anything faster then 16.1, SRT-4s are running 14.9 here, I take every car off the line, but ------- they get me in 3rd.(time for some more canadian styles write-ups) next week i'm racing my friend in his turbo 2 rx7, gona hand him his ass!

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

There's also countless people on the same site that say it's not good. Spencer, your car is slow. I bet I could take you out in the hf. :D

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

And your not supposed to put synthetic in a honda tranny, ask around dipnuts..

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

o I was unaware of this, Damn. Well who cares, I got another Si trans laying right here 8) But yeah, it' pisses me off how slow it is, ------- stupid Honda. I never won one race.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Damn thats embarassing man, You proved everyone who said you were slow right.. Stay away from the track until you get something under that canadian hood

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

lol, well whatever, I'm almost done with the turbo kit so that should be fun, I just wish i had a job so I could afford more ----. >:(

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

just sell drugs or something. anyways, you should be pretty quick (14's anyways) when you turbo that bitch. btw, i reccomend honda mtf, much better than regular oil, and there's no debate on whether or not it's good for your tranny ;)

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

Yes i agree and that ---- has always felt smoother for me.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

i use honda mtf in my car. but ive heard good things about the gm syncromesh. but it has to be the one thats friction modified. not the regular syncromesh. im gonna have to try it for myself one of these days. it goes for about 15 bucks a quart i believe. well atleast thats what i hear. but im gonna have to try for myself and let u guys know the truth

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

yeah, the ---- i got is the "Gm syncromesh friction modified" ----, It says its "semi synthetic" What ever the ---- that means. It's a AC delco brand, But I cross checked the part numers and its the same ----.

and yeah projecteg, I"m seliin' drugs 8) I found a good ten pounds of shake in dumpster (BC BUD) and I took it to a friends house, and he's gona make were gona make oil out of it! I'll sellyou some, 40 buxka gram, shipped.

VIDEOS ARE UP NOW!! :D

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

is that a single cam or dual cam zc?

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

dual

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

not bad man, looks like you did pretty good off the line, although you don't really have enough power to lose traction ;)

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

Did the neon really have naawwwsss, or did you think that was a good excuse for why he raped you? Hahaha.

I don't know what your reaction times are, but it looked like you left on all of those cars. ;)

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

your kidding right?

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

nothing wrong with running GM syncromesh friction modified... MTF is good too.

Damn boy i ran a 16.2 last week in my 88 accord with no muffler, no back seat, stripped trunk, no a/c etc modded stock air intake etc... what were your 60 fts? I was pulling 2.3s spinning the tires halfway thru first (2800 rpm dump)

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!!
 

you miss typed it. hes gonna hand you your ass.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

ther was a post about tranny fluid a while back, where some people were saying that gm synchro mesh was a geat tranny fluid and that it would cause your car not to grind in gears :-\ any one remember that?

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

spencer i suggest u become a ricer that way u have a reason for being slow

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

GM Syncromesh is a good fluid to use in DSM trannys. Jesus, just put straight 10-30w motor oil in ours, or MTF.

Your car is slow, I hit 14.8 with my ZC Intake/header and no exhaust

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

I haven't gone to the local track (1hour's drive) yet to get some times, but if I don't get into the 15s I'm going to cut myself.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

Yeah, I do believe it's my car, but what do you think could be causing it to run so slow??

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

i could name atleast 5 things from your last post that fucked your car over good...

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

do tell onyx, I think my bov is causing turbulence.

that neon was fast, I'm going to go get a wing and some "euro" tailights.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

i use wal-mart oil in everything... camaro, chevelle, integra, my tranny :)

OMG all those cars sound so terrible.

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

maybe its the elevation. those zc's i have a lot of potential. especially when u put it in those lunchboxes or a crx. mine went 14.9 in my crx with a molded body kit that weighed 2 fucken tons. i regret doing that ----. but oh well its not my car anymore...haha your car is slow. probably slower than my all motor civic mang

Re:ZC Unleashed at the Track!! With VIDEOSS!!!!
 

It ------- blows. Something is wrong with my ------- ZC, piece of ----. >:( What the ---- could be wrong?
