work out your 0-60

Post by Driftlimits Performance »

Okaly dokaly, found this link on the Type-R owners club (went to a meet once, great fun, about 6 integra and 4 civics, and a few evos :? ) anyway...

Here's the link

Well, with my times that are on the board (not my best 1/8mile times/speed) my 0-60 is......


4.38 seconds.

Which is surely not right? Surely? :?

Errmm ... 1/8 mile is far too dependent on other factors such as tyres and gearing - ignore it.
Small turbos - they're not big and they're not clever!

Just say NO to small turbos!

Yeah thats way out mate

mine comes up with 3.9 seconds.

I've done several gtech runs back to back on the same stretch of road in opposing directions and came away with 4.59 - 4.8...with a passenger....and a boot full of tools and trolley jack....

Yeah, mine came up with 3.9 too, but i am only one down from you on the list (not for long though). 8)

Don't know what it actually does but i'm sure it's not that quick, as you say, mid 4's i'd guess.
