I dont take much part in the 6gc forums but spend time mostly viewing other peoples rides on this site..
So im keen on ur opinions on which car has better straight line performance, the Celi GT or the Mazda3 2.0l.. im curious because my friend has one and the specs are pretty similar. I think maybe my celi would have a slight edge with more low end torque, but the age difference in the cars might make a bit of a difference as well. Curious to know what u guys might think.. if u even care

QUOTE(SoundSlut_dotcom @ Jun 2, 2005 - 5:23 PM) it will blow the celi out [right][snapback]294386[/snapback][/right] From what I've heard. Those V6 MX3 aint nothing to brag about. The V6 is too small and weak to even compare. Thats just what I've heard though. Hope you don't take it personal. I didn't mean it that way. I'll try and look up the specs. EDIT: ...This is what I found... 1.8L V6 130 hp gas Standard Number of cylinders: 6 Number of valves: 24 Compression Ratio: 9.2 Camshaft: Double overhead cam (DOHC) Horsepower: 130 hp @ 6500 rpm Torque: 115 ft-lbs @ 4500 rpm This post has been edited by pokemeintheeye: Jun 2, 2005 - 4:12 PM |
