I would go with a P11 because of the gears ratios. With a b15 there still only a little longer then the spec V. Also 4th gears is really long so you can just let it go all out in 4th. Also I would get the clutch type nismo LSD too.

I bet your sad to see NHRA go I know I am I was realy hoping to show people that nissan can run and do it well in the sfwd class ( I have never raced a NDRA so I am worried Sport compact is on its way out ) Very nice build must be nice to run a throw away rod wish I had the cash to do it... good luck and hope to see more pics...
I am guessing hot rod class ( or counter class is other sanction body)
only thing i'm sad about is not having the chance to compete for a wally. i think the new nopidrags by nhra, are gonna be great. throw away rod? maybe for a street car,lol. GRP rods are top quality if you utah guys throw them away thats your biz. car will be in PRO4 class
Only ment not reuseable as for rebuilds not as in garbage ( I would if I didn't rebuild my crap so much ) yeah that is the about the same as hotrod class I am waiting for rules to come out before I change my setup again I want to see what classes they will have first that way I build for that class.. O and that is JMO about the rods I know a few that have reused the rods
tube frame, factory backed, pro fwd cars don't run 6's yet. i only have one goal so far, which is the whole reason for building this car. if i can run a 9.9999999 i'll be very happy, until then thats the only goal.
ask fred casey about how he mangled his par gears.
your funny jonathon.
I was just exaggerating about the 6's didn't think a lot would take it seriously, ...... well on the other hand Vinny took it very seriously with the Z..... but like you said he's still FR..
But seriously i think you would surpass 9.999... Good luck its an awesome build..
just run the b15 trans with a different final drive. With the spec v trans you will be shifting wayy to much, you might as well launch in third with that turbo and boost.
Just my opinion but my best friends spec v with tuning and every bolt on possible spun the tires alot 1-3 and this was 225 width azenis. I think even with the slicks you will break the trans if not the tires loose till the top of 4th. I just think you will lose way to much time shifting and spinning the tires to make the 6spd worth it. Cunninghams na spec v busted trannies left and right when he was running the spec v na at the road course. His 300-400whp to your 600-800whp set up.
Just my .02 and somthing to keep in mind
funny you should say that, ive layed down 500whp/393wtq trhough mine and its held up just fine.
I am willing to bet he is going to have a 26 or 28 inch slick and besides when you start getting power and a set up like that gear ratio is different then you might think gearing depends on what RPM he is going too, what he wants to trap at different points in the 1/4, his power band and other things like tire size and much more. true a 6 speed might not be what I would use but he seems to know what he is doing so I am sure after he tests a bit other tranny options are going to up in the air for him remember the class he is going into traps in the 180mph ( to be competitive )
So the rule of thumb that so many think is right is not always the case
good luck with the build and I hope to see you at the track
I think I remember Jamie Ferrer considering an automatic drag tranny for the car, is that right? I would think something better than a stock transmission would be necessary for this project.

yep, to start out i'm going w/ a 26in slick revving it to about 9.8-10k rpm, the gear ratio would put me around 160+ at the top of fourth, so we'll see if i can get that far. who knows, at this point, its gonna be trial and error. i originally had a b15 for this setup, but i know its gonna break the case at some point. so if i was to use it and then it doesn't work out, in order to use the specv trans, i'd have to get a new clutch, new axles, new mounts, new shifter,new hubs.etc.... so i figured before i spend 3500 on a clutch and axles for a b15, just start from the beginning w/ the specv tranny. and the clutch options are better for this trans.
"So the rule of thumb that so many think is right is not always the case"
you get alot of that on this forum,lol
auto trans will only be looked at, if ALL else falls. i don't want an auto tranny,lol.
