13.8 at 101mph with a 2.0 60'

i can def pull the 1.9 with more practice...the 60's were getting better each run =), plus like i said my brake is sticking, like without the ebrake even up the back right brakes are touching the rotors, its pretty bad lol...my times woulda been alot better i think, i didnt realize the brake pad was touching the rotors like this.
 
damn jeff.... i just saw this. man that sucks!!! good times non the less, build that b**** and get her running again. (2thumbs)
 
yea, i will be fixing the breaks 1st thing, don't feel like fixing the motor then have it s*** on me again cuz the breaks are sticking and engine overheats or something...

Should let me fix the brakes, buy some new rotors...those are obviously cooked beyond repair. Thats what you get for not getting them turned, ever. The stock brakes on p5s suck ass...were never made to handle 145-150mph , then again the car was never meant to have a turbo...;p Invest in some brembo slotted or cross drilled, or both, like mine, they seem to work the best, Ive braked down from 175-180mph no problem.
 
nice times Jeff...I hope it's just a headgasket that needs replacement for you.

We are fairly certain its just the headgasket..car idles fine it just slowly dies out..rods arent knocking and pistons arent slappin around..so a copper HG upgrade is in order.

Talk to Corwin, he was selling Brembos for the P5 for $200.

His rotors are so warped it sounds like he has a flat tire when his car is moving. lol
I helped him push it once while we were in line & I don't remember it being difficult or hearing any strange sounds. (scratch)
 
you remember how hard it was to push my car dude, lol, i was busting my ass maybe you couldn't feel it. When the car is driven slowly you can definately HEAR the brakes sticking, the rotors are warped and the pad rubs hah, im sure its from those 145mph breaking(more then a few times lol)

That's true...it felt about the same as mine & that was with both of us pushing.

....=), minus 1 person plus your car weighs 400+ lbs more then mine, lol...also i remember on hills it was not rolling back anymore which kinda worried me but i guess it's my own fault.
 
Put it this way, it was easier to push my car which weighs roughly the same or a little more, and I sat in my car and had my girl and jeff pushing it...and it was still easier for them to push my car then for us all pushing his car...kind of comical...
 
damn 2.0 60'....I'm jealous. I ran last wedneday (again) 2.2-2.4 60' and ran 2 13.50's in a row. 11psi of boost.
