I wasn't sure were to put this but I was thinking here because of your story of them, but what I was wondering was how I would do a breakstand in my car... For all of you who dont know it is a 95 3.4L V6 and it's an automatic... But haven't done much with the car, because of the snow.

What is a breakstand? Something like a burnout?

stand still burnout... thats how i always reffered it to as

With FWD engage hand brake, accel to the floor and release the clutch. With RWD is accel, cluth and brake. I am not an expert on automatics so Im sorry I cannot help too much.

With an auto it's pretty easy. Just mash the gas and the brake at the same time. With a manual you dump the clutch at a pretty high RPM and than hold the brake. With a manual you will most likely slowly creap foward a little. With a RWD automatic it's ideal to have a line lock. That way you can lock the front wheels and allow the rear wheels to spin.


Try doing power slides if you car is RWD...it's SO much more fun.

I have been in my father's vehicles, snow can be fun, but i have to wait till spring or summer to drive the Camaro, and yes it is RWD

With all that torque you should have no problem doing a big smokey burnout.

Snow is pretty fun, it's a lot easier on tires but for some reason i prefer rain. You can go a little bit faster and you have a little more control.

I go down to industrial park in the spring time when it's raining and do huge power slides through the parking lot. Good times.

i wasn't sure my power specs, but i have found a site that put my camaro's stock specs at 160bhp, and 200lbs of torque

What is your 300ZX putting out?

Depending on what gas and boost I run, between 420 and 507WHP and 425 and 480Ft/Lbs of torque. Most of the time I run 15PSI of boost and that's probably around 420WHP if I get a tank of 100 octane I can run upwards of 26PSI and that's where I can actually hit 507. I pretty much only do that on the track since 100 octane is almost $5 a gallon.

Tonite I took the car out for a little while and since it was raining I turned the boost controller off. I think I might have hit 9PSI if I was lucky. That's why I'm home so early, pretty slippery.

Thanks for the info been having fun with little burnouts, since the vehicle I'm driving isn't mine...

Glad to hear it. Try putting WAY more air in the tires than you actually need. The burnouts are a little better bcause you are burning the middle of the tire as opposed to the edges.....and than there is always bleach?

What? laundry bleach, little confused

Never heard of it? lol you are missing out.

Go get a gallon of regular clorox bleach (sp?) and bring a gallon or 2 of water. Pour them all over the street roll into it and light up the back tires.

You will make a smokey burnout like no other. The amount of smoke it makes is amazing.

Tell me more...Tell me more!!!!

Go try it. If you want use stright bleach but I'm kinda warey about getting it on my paint.

Be sure to take some pics for me though.


BTW: off topic...I highly recommend using TOLUENE as a fuel additive. It;s used in rocket fuel..it's gotta be good in cars...I'm not kidding it's good stuff.

Be sure to take some pics for me though.

I will take pics, and were not off topic really since we are still talking about breakstands(burnouts)

Great! Do you have a favourite brand?

Just get a line lock. Thats the easiest way.

Great! Do you have a favourite brand?

Yes I do. Generic cheap stuff.
