0-60 is traction dependent. On street tires I bet they are the same. Stage II should win 60-95

what are some 0-60 times of any of these FI cars? has anyone timed this

Given some of the TT setups on here I'd say 0-60 would be the same as a stock Z, if not worse.

I am betting 0-60 times would be best with STG 2 since it makes a bit less TQ, but has higher HP at the top of the band. With that said, the challenge is going to be putting it to pavement.

Mike@GTM · 01-13-2012, 01:13 PM

I know people are obsessed with 0-60 times thanks to magazines and the like. But in all honesty, 60 ft times in the 1/4 mile tell the true story. So far, people have not been able to get decent 60 ft times due to the lack of traction. In fact, there isn't a single FI car that has a better 60' time than the fastest all motor cars. What do you think that's going to do for 0 - 60 times? If you can't hook up off the line, then your 0 - 60 isn't going to be all that great...just like the 60 ft times.

So what does that mean? 0 - 60 is more about traction and driver ability than it is about horsepower on this platform.

All that said, if you really want the numbers, then you need the equipment and access to a closed track to measure it. But again, since there's two big variables (traction and driver ability) in getting consistent numbers. That means, 0 - 60 times are going to be all over the place and will be utterly meaningless. I mean, if you took a decent size sample of cars with the same horsepower and torque and plotted the data points, the 0 - 60 times would more than likely look like a scatter plot instead of a bell curve and you would not be able to make heads or tails of the data.

The bottom line: your mileage will vary.

soooooo... get a driver mod? lol

TerribleONE · 01-13-2012, 02:06 PM

I live my life 0-60 miles an hour at a time... Driver mod is just as helpful as some sticky tires if not more IMO

So let me clarify the above question by saying that all other variables such as traction, driver, etc are constant.

Now what do you all think?

Z eliminator · 01-14-2012, 12:59 PM

N/A 60 ft,, 1.835 1750 rpm stall (present)
304 rwhp to 309 rwhp SAE
1/8 th mile 8.01 @ 89.0
0 to 60 Aprox 3.8 to 3.9 or quicker
1/4 mile 12.42 @ 114.37. 60 ft 1.854
There a guy with a stage 1 SC on here, he posted his 1/8 mile run's im faster than him with my N/A set up.
Now lets add 200 rwhp with the stage 2 SC and now add meth built 7 At, quaffie diff with a 3500 stall converter
1/4 mile times = ?????
i figure 1.792 60 ft with a 11.21 1/4 mile. or quicker.
we will find out this year at the track
I will be at the Z nationals in Oct with the car.

20 km to 120 in my car is scary fast. (2nd to 3rd. gears) will kill any thing at those speeds can not wait for the SCto be installed.

That's like marrying a supermodel and then complaining that she likes to sleep naked but you'll reluctantly get used to it.

Holy necro post batman.

Z eliminator · 01-09-2013, 04:49 PM

I down to 12.342 with N/A And its realy quick. I now have the GTM built 7 At at its even faster. I will be going to the track for i day of N/A and then the stage 2 SC goes on the car.
0 to 60 will be real quick.
Go to the drag section 1/4 mile times last post by Gale Force and i have the vid of my cars tack and spedo dong a 12.4 run. You can see how fast 0to 60 is. Can some one post it in this thread.
Thanks

I've got the stage 1.5 and it is very impressive to say the least,you can see in my signature line how much power the kit can produce,it has better low end torque than the stage 2 with as much on the top end or more in my case.
