got lateral grip?

http://photos.imageevent.com/crazydu...%20G%20run.jpg

This is with a buddies 01 ZO6 with T1 bars and Nitto NT01's on an onramp. G tech is pretty accurate in my opinion. Im gonna see what I can get with R2's later on, I do have 18k miles on the fronts though. Well see.....

Looks like a 1.3, correct? Pretty good.

Yes, 1.3 it is.
I ran quite a few turns on this thing and was pretty consistent above the 1.2 range. This was obviously my best run.

I have the T1's and NT01's as mentioned but my car is also lowered 1" and has been cornered balanced if anyone is wonderin.

Luke, this is your mother father's sister second cousin.

Not much,dude...just enjoying this nice weather with the Z. How are those T1 bars?

And is that 1.3g a instantaneous reading or a constant reading while cornering? Either way, that's grippy! Which onramp was this?


NT01's or R2's....which do you prefer and what sizes you running?

It was on the track setting reading at 20x per sec or whatever the measurement was.

I will PM you the location to protect the corner from testifying..LOL

NT01's are better, the only gripe I HAD with them was prior to the T1's they felt sloppy. When you push your suspension with the extra grip it seemed to sway too much which gives you the sloppy feeling.

I was going to go back to the RII's but not now.

running the 315's in the rear....the only ones that fit

im thinking about T1's now, too bad theyre $800. Any way I can get my hands on a set for less than that?

Troy's Z rails, he had a passenger during that 1.3 pull too, probably 3500+ lbs altogether.

'You should post on here that you want to buy some. A lot of guys don't like them and want to get the Hotchkis ones instead.

Luke, you have to come over feel true power of the dark side of g-force. 1.4 g's
Your car looks like an exploded white rice kernal and we know that you are the white sheep in the family and that black is faster.

Meanwhile do not beat everyone up to badly, save some for me.

On side a note, we have to put your new g-meter in my car soon.

Yeah I wanna drive yours first for a bit and see how they feel, the complaints Im hearing are that they make the car too rigid, and unforgiving. And on rough roads the ride is harsh.
