its amazing that it does a 13.34 @ 101MPH... i wonder whats wrong with mine if i am only doing a 14.2 @ 98.2 MPH... :S

The driver :P

He launches damn hard with the tyres he uses.

OED666 · 29-06-2006, 09:58 AM

true, i have only just sorted out my launch... after nearly 3 years... :(

and now i have a new clutch and flywheel... time to learn again...

however, i can smash gears in like its a shift-kitted auto!!!

Ill be getting work done there again some day soon.

For me who works 50hrs a week learns very quickly about time management and the price it comes at. If a Dev 5 means a reliable fitted and proven package but the price is higher than others claim to make I know where Ill be spending my pennies.

I admire the people who develop there own combinations but I simply don’t have the time or patience.

Brendan, good to see you still make an appearance!

OED.... You didnt happen to learn that launch from me did you?

:
LOL Ill book in the 19th as well!

Rollin has been telling me for years how to launch, and the last time, i finally put it all together, and consistantly too.

It doesnt work for the road though, the tacho just swings to 6000rpm, and i dont go anywhere in a hurry.

Its a bit like that isnt it. Your brain goes "snatch second the wheelspin will stop"

Erm....no, no it doesnt. ;)

What kind of 60ft times does the JMM car get?

'i'm running 13.4s and getting consistent 1.8s 60ft times.' thats without nos.
with the bbm worked it ran 13.3s.
then they slapped in a 100hp nos kit to give em 250rwkw and removed the front sway bar and that got em down the 1/4 mile in 12.04sec with a 60ft time of 1.6s.

MADED-6 · 29-06-2006, 06:37 PM

and also in the article if u care to read it it says that the car couldnt be driven on the road because of having no sway bar and all that. i think they have done really well and if people are going to pay the price then sure charge it i say i gotta make ur money somehow. and also for ppl just off the street jmm is the only manufacturer of 4.0l cams that u see advertised thats why i would say they are so successful. and if u do want to know about wat happened with jmm do wat someone said and pm casper as some ppl dont really give a s#@t wat happened.
cheers josh.

from what i can see they do have a good product and at affordable prices and the price includes fit and dyno test by specialists in the I6 field.

once i get some money together im going dev 3hl for the pano

brendan

I would?
Sorry, leave me out of this please. I've moved on, JMM have moved on and things are just fine the way they are. I dont have a public opinion anymore, I'm quite happy doing my thing as is.

stiddy · 29-06-2006, 06:47 PM

Who cares what happened with JMM, its been 6 months people, let it go..

1TUFFUTE · 29-06-2006, 06:54 PM

Untill someone starts building better products and running faster times...we should all care. It wont just go away. When somone else becomes the best then id say the attention will swing their way...ahh well

Read where the discussion was leading instead of..... oh im not going to waste my time....

Its the issue with JMM and the forums, not his products

but why doesn't it surprise me to see your post!

stiddy · 29-06-2006, 07:00 PM

I wasnt refering to the product or times.
I was talking about people asking casper and getting refered to casper about what has happened, why the falling out, why jmm arent a sponsor anymore etc etc.

EDIT: laminge beat me to it..

Im referring to the time, when say...a site sponser hits the next level with the 4.0ls. Imagine the positive response there will be on here.It will be sweet man...

stiddy · 29-06-2006, 07:06 PM

There are sponsors hitting the next level with 4L's..

Bluepower are getting impressive results, same as GnD Performance.. Its performance are up there aswell.. hell even Cresent Motors and All cylinder heads are getting decent gains from these 6's.

GnD and Bluepower are sponsors on AFF, Cresent motors and Its Performance are sponsors on Fordmods..

Take your pick, theres plenty of performance shops around and they are getting faster, and with more experience they will get faster again. JMM are not the be all and end all of 6 cylinders.

This has all been covered before, its just going around in circles.
