Lets see. I got married about 14 months ago.  I sold the Beretta and bought an 89' Maxima Se 5spd as ...

Last I remember you had a Conquest.

Now I see a 951 added to the stable

A member here back in 2001 ran about 16.0 at 86 bone stock with like 50k on the clock.

We also had a base 3100 run a 15.8 with a 3k new engine.

But for the most part 16.3-5 at 84-85mph is the norm.

A well driven 3.1 5spd can hit 15.8-15.9.  I saw a couple of stock 3.1's with 130k+ run 15.9's.  

A 3400 5spd with headers, intake, full 2.5" exhaust and UDP and chip should hover around 14.0.  If you add an LSD and drag radials high 13's.

You can also use a 3.4 stroker kit which will physically look like a 3.1.  Then with a cam and chip that should give you a substantial gain in power over stock, like 30-40hp.  Add a ported and polished top end with upgraded springs and retainers and you are at 50+hp.

I ran a custom chip for a couple of years.  I doubt they would have any way of knowing.  It should be worth 5-8whp and a higher redline and require a better grade of fuel.  Stay away from Jet or hypertech, they wont do anything.  Get a chip from Ben on 60degreeV6, he knows how to tune MPFI's really ...

2.4x  60ft shows there is a lot of room for improvement.  2.1-2.2 60 fts on some air downed stickier tires should net you a 15.0-15.2.

AMT/Ertl is the company, its 1/25 scale.  They also make it pre-assembled promo's too. I think the GTU shown here, you can build as a GT...its been a few years so I forget. http://cgi.ebay.com/AMT-ERT....iewItem Here is the MPC/Ertl GT http://cgi.ebay.com/MPC-Ert....iewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/AMT-C...

I'm special, I got a phone call with the news ;P

That looked like a completely fair match up lol.

Still here.  Beretta-less for a year as I built up my Viggen.  Then decided instead of putting it through winters on snow tires why not just get a Beretta for winter instead and to keep the miles down.

Wound up with a 3.1 5spd 89 GT with digi cluster, Z seats and Indy wheels.
