Does the 3SGTE engine pulll G forces... I read somewher sometime that only 3 toyota engines pull over 1G stock..and i was wondering if the 3s was one of them.
Bigal -------------------- 1994 celica GT.....3sgte in a month! all helpers are welcome!!! i live in Plattsburgh, NY.

(of course, the mass of the car would greatly impact the amount of Nm or hp of the engine, thus heavier car = more hp) i luv translational physics now, i wonder which toyotas run under 9.06s stock?? theorically yes but.. our cars doesnt have an electric motor that can give same acceleretion all time.. we have different accelelerion at different rpm's i belive that my car pulls higher that 1 G arround 5000-6000 rpm. i always thinked of installing a g-meter in my car to test it once. -------------------- |

That assumes a uniform acceleration. I would guess that our cars have a better acceleration in lower speeds. |
