What 1/4 mile times do you guys run?

Today I ran a 15.08 @ 89.72 with a ram air intake, straight fence post exhaust(y-pipe back) with no muffler(stock y-pipe), and no passenger/back seat. what is the fastest 1mz-fe n/a camry?

that's a pretty good time...:thumbup:

I presume that you have a v6 of course....do you have a 5speed?

and what was the difference between your 15.56 runs and your 15.08 runs? only the ram air/headlight removal? or did you not have the exhaust mods before?

automatic that clunks into first when coming to a stop(so its time for a rebuild). the only difference was the intake.

yeah, today was the last day Byron was open, the next closest race track is in another state. next season with a y-pipe, some tuning time(dyno and a safc) and either a 5 speed swap or a re-build trans/stall converter, im hoping to run mid to low 14s. has anybody else ever ran quarter mile?

if your going to get your automatic rebuilt maybe you should get it modified like taking to IPT. I see might as well if your rebuilding the auto so you can shave off more time in the 1/4 mile.

yeah id love to, its just i dont even know where im going to find the money to get the rebuild in the first place. thats why i might just go with a 5speed, probably an e153. i can get a brand new one for a grand from my friend that works at a dealership. IPT charges 3grand to get it fully rebuilt, and the only way i want to stay with an automatic is if i decide to go turbo later on(i like the idea of brake torqing it to get into boost, instead of having to launch, much easier to run consistent runs without a 2 step)(actually thats not true...i think i just really like tony's car) otherwise with a supercharger or just a fully built N/A id rather have stick to achieve less drivetrain loss.

Dude, i guess i really was wrong about that ram air intake thing, it must be forcing at least 30 more horsepower worth of air into your engine for you to drop from a mid 15 to a low 15 LOL

nice 15 second Camry :lol: that things phat

Ok, since he has taken it upon himself to quote me in his signature, I will take the time to explain why I said that. I came across this old post on the lexus forums a while back

I still stand by this, intakes dont do squat on our cars. Sounds like you just drove the car a little better.

I did a 14.8 at 92.9mph with a CAI and a Greddy catback back, gutted cat, trd short shifter, removed seats. Car is a 2000 v6 5spd

a 5spd swap is the best bang for the buck an automatic car can get short of n2o....should only come to a total of about $1500 if you do the swap yourself, if not less.


and most intakes being same as stock = I agree on the most part....only when you get into FI does an intake really make much of a difference over stock


and my cai just sounds sooooo cool, and looks soooooo good.... :D :thumbup:

^ 30+ mpg at WOT FTW!!!


I hooked the ac directly into my throttle body for a super CAI and my 3vz-fe Camry ran a 13.8 at 99 mph with automatic and the headlight out

I did 5 1/4 mile runs with my GTech Pro in the summer and my average time was 15.516 @ 89.93mph. Best was 15.463 @ 89.98mph, worst was 15.806 @ 89.32mph. I did the best possible launches that I could pull off.

96CoupeV6- does your GTECH tell you 60' times also? The reason i'm asking is that your mph is real close to stonegrave's 15.0-15.1 passes. Were the runs all on level road or did some of them maybe have a slope to them?

LuckyNumber5- Why do you still talk shit? I have more than one dyno sheet that shows that a ram air intake works, but none with a camry, which is why i didn't say anything till we got hard data WITH A CAMRY proving that i was right. If you don't believe me would you like to see stonegraves timeslips? I have his fastest one on my computer here and his other ones on a disk at my work and would gladly post them for you to see. Also, is the "super CAI" an idea that you had but then when you asked other people about it they laughed at you so you keep bringing it up as a diss to other people to make yourself feel better? :disappoin

Toysrme- You said to do your homework...so i did the same stuff i've done before but this time with the help of stonegrave and using his 1MZ-FE '99 camry auto as a guinea pig so that even though it's been proven on other cars, nobody could pull the "not on our cars" line. You kind of proved me right with your pressure diagram, if you look where the headlight is, it would still be in the yellow would mean that the air would be drawn to the intake much more willingly due it being the path of least resistance. Also, i have proof with again, a bunch of different cars but none on a camry, till now. The time slips don't lie, a 3 tenth drop immediately once our "bullshit/non-working/hurt-more-than-it-helps" ram air intake was installed OVER a SRI. The scavenging thing, i thought that there was more overlap, i stand corrected. But, a y-pipe would still be benificial due to increased exhaust velocity. Also, I would love for you to show me proof that i'm wrong on the nitrous thing, tell me what is better and why. So if you've done your homework.....school me.:thankyou:

I don't know what the fuck he's talking about? The only thing I got from it was:
  • Yes the cam overlaps for non vvt-i 1mz-fe are only 6*, with .320 / .310 lift
  • Yes the entire point of a y-pipe is to maximize exhaust velocity where you want peak torque to be made, while balancing that with the exhaust restriction through the top of the hrosepower curve that limits horsepower.


If you wanna talk about gtech times. I pulled a 15 flat years back on this ES N/A with no traction. All torque baby. :p.
