Excellent! I knew those mods should have been making you pull sub 14's. At least you finally broke that barrier. Congrats.

congrats

is a 2.0 60' possible?
if so, you might be able to do a 13.7x
also, why are you picking up so little mph in the 2nd 1/8th? esp considering your mods

Maybe since im an auto...? Im not sure...my gears are longer so it takes a little bit more time to get through them, buti have no idea to tell you the truth. 1st gear i shift at about 35-40mph 2nd gear goes until 57-62 mph and 3rd gear goes to about 98MPH. I shift into 4th by the end of the track and it is just seems so slow when i get in 4th...

I have the gordgee grounding wire kit, it definitely helps your shifts. Can you tell us about what Rpm did you launch at? did you brake torque launch? Amazing numbers btw... and you said you shifted, therefore i'm assuming u kept it in manumatic mode. What rpm's did you shift at?

I was actually considering that grounding kit, but 2 of the kids that i went to the track with (they both had the 350z) said they noticed no difference in the grounding kit and that it was just for looks. They both had 6 speeds though this could be why...?

While launching i stomp the brake and hold the the RPMS to about 1800-2100 RPMS and yes i put it in manual mode.

Trust me, as well as about a couple hundred other AT owners, there is a noticeable difference with the grounding wires. I would try to get the 12 piece if you can.
