Jeff. it was a sad day, but we are building a house & the running costs were killing me. My new ride is a Mazda SP23. Good on fuel, lease costs have halved, but it will NEVER replace the T for enjoyment sorry guys, back to the topic
What mods do you have? You have standard boost(no edit I take it)standard exhaust.....was it on street tyres, what fuel? These are great times for 183kw ← Mods I had... the big blue girl has gone but the memories live on XR8 snorkel on the std T airbox, 1/2 tank optimax fuel, SP3000 dunlops & 5deg ambient !
the car ran consistent 13.8`s and the night I ran 13.64, the runs either side of it were 13.66 & 13.68. The dyno run was done at Autotech by Spiro. who stated that bit was about average for an auto.
that is an awesome effort mate!! what was your 60 foot? that's strange.. my mph is the same, et slightly quicker, but my dyno sheet says 297hp atw!! my dyno sheet cant be right hey.. with ~220rwkw I should be around 104-105 mph right?? ← 60' time was 2.0
jeez, I do it everytime I drive a manual, but I am struggling to put the sequence to print. 1. Put clutch in and gear into neutral 2. Let clutch out 3. As you blip the throttle to get the rpm's up to match the lower gear, put clutch in and downshift 4. Let the clutch out
Hi Guys, just finished reading a thread in which the old 1/4 mile chestnut of " a properly driven manual will always be quicker than an auto " was raised. I know that this has been debated before, but I have never really seen a definitive outcome. ( pls advise if it has ) I take my limited experience at the drags as an example. I have an auto T with an airbox mod and have run a 13.6 ( best ) but 13.8`s consistently. Are there any manuals out there that have run these times or quicker, with the same mods ? I am assuming that we will all compare time slips so the roll out factor is taken into consideration. Cheers PSI
