I give my car I brought now n run when had ss ute it beat me. and I had a tuned done but I didnt have the diff ratio done which is crap in the standard ratio. I love my T to hope fix up bit more. also was abit wet n ute's dont have t/c but for sound.... have to be v8 Edited 06/06/08 10:38 AM by robbo k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 2m 26d Posted 06/06/08 10:49 AM Author Share Posted 06/06/08 10:49 AM I had a LS1 and over time modded it upto a peak of 280rwkw.. At 280rwkw it felt light years ahead of when it had 230rwkw....I reckon my T when it had 280rwkw was a good run with the LS1 when it was also 280rwkw... I think the stronger mid range of the T compensates for the weight... The Ls1 is pretty easy to get fired away off the blocks... I think a 300rwkw T once on boost its bye bye LS1...The quarter mile registr on LS1 has some LS1's with around 250rwkw running low 12s so its gonna be close... Maybe a VT wih 250rwkw not a porky fat ass VE with 250rwkw.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rspecf6 Banned 138 Member For: 16y 8m 7d Gender: Male Posted 06/06/08 11:28 AM Share Posted 06/06/08 11:28 AM absolute rubbish!!!I have a VS Supercharged and at the time l had 150rwkw, l had a street drag with a HSV LS1 260rwkw, and from take off we were even but from 100kmph he started to pull away and did with only 1 to 2 car lengths.When l race my brother (XR2DY4) he has me from take off, midrage and top end just hammers me away, so who is posting up this crap that a LS1 with 260rwkw will keep up with an XR6T WITH 300rwkw....hahahahahhaa r u sure the guy in the ls1 was aware of the race?respect you view but a s/c vs keeping up with a 260atw (sure that was not the fly?ls1 which must have been modded(260 atw) is hard to take.................I have had one of each by the way........................

(im presuming the VS Supercharged is the calais V6 Supercharged...They are a bolt of lightening off the mark, they are like a greyhound tking off... I reckon they would keep most cars honest to about 100km/h... That is a stock car... One with a few mods... boost etc would really move...I reckon it would keep the Clubby very honest.... (to 100km/h) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
