BlueXR6Turbo The Best Member Donating Members 1,970 Member For: 21y 11m 28d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 03/11/04 06:29 AM Share Posted 03/11/04 06:29 AM My experience would suggest that the VY SS and BA XR6T are pretty close in performance and it comes down to the driver, how good their start is, the condition of the tyres, etc. I would say that the XR6T is usually in front though. Also, I'm led to believe that the auto in the Late model camira is not as good as the auto in the Falcon. My mate has a VY SS ute. The engine sounds great from the front, but once it goes past and you hear the exhaust... I doubt the VZ will be much different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolling start out of a roundabout, and it was line ball. Considering his was a ute and thus lighter, against a stock VY SS Sedan, I'd expect my XR6_T sedan (stock) to nose in front, but there wouldn't be a lot in it.

Guest xrtwpn Guests Posted 03/11/04 07:18 AM Share Posted 03/11/04 07:18 AM depends auto manual and when wheels and motor test the cars they do a few runs and do an average after owning both a vy ss and xr6 turbo I would have to say the t take off quicker but the vy ss would win in the end hands down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate's SS usually catches and goes past me if we go long enough. Well it did before the APS kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't keep the rear end down, it started fishtailing like crazy, and then the boost kicked in on the XR and the race was over. Had a P plater in a little Colt race up to wave to me, and give me the thumbs up, which was very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
