    Most likely meant a 2.1555 60' time. Pretty standard for street tires and a mid-14 second time. Whether he doesn't understand it or just put the decimal point in the wrong spot is up for question.

    Either way, two tenths of a second to cover 60 feet of ground is beyond the reach of a humble Z31. Lol.

    To the OP, get the diff mount. It's worth the price, especially if you get the subframe bushings at the same time. ASCO ran a deal on them a while back. Maybe keep an eye out for something similar in the future.

    Yes that seems more likely which is why I wanted a pic of the time slip. Sadly I sold those drag radials but I do have a set of weld wheels that will eventually get a new set of radials once my car is done.

    No need to apologize. Your excitement clearly comes through in your posts! A 2.1 60 is good on a street tire so be proud of it still!
