how fast are GTs, 5sfe Options

[HectortheRican]

Fast cars can get up to 140 very easily... I trap higher than 140 and street races usually go longer than 1/4.

Rule # I don't know. Don't talk about street racing.

[Zake]

I dont recommend you driving 122 mph out on the streets my friend.

X2, I cant stress this enough. sure it is fun, but if you sit down and think about it. you are putting your life one the line, and if you get caught.. I'm not sure what the laws are by you, but in Illinois if you get caught, you WILL pay out the ass. 2 years ago i was caught speeding down a country road, and got slapped with a $500 fine, 2 years conditional discharge and that's with a $1000 lawyer. starting this year, the fines have skyrocketed to mandatory thousands of dollars in fines and mandatory jail time. that taught me a little lessen. "its just not worth it"

I dont see that rule, even if that's the case i'm pretty sure its talking about specific incidents, not as a general fact. I dont know why but every thread you post in, it has to be something negative about something.....

You don't really look at a lot of threads then, man. And you did say that you trap higher than 140. I guess I should've asked if it was on the street or not. My bad.

I dont get the point in why you would want to go 140 mph, down a road, in the dark, with a car that shouldnt be able to go past 95 safely.

Now your car is completely different from what I stated above, with the numbers your LS2 has im sure you trap at the same my friend twin turbo ls2 does.

Comparing your car to a 6gc is like comparing a cheetah to a sloth, your car idles faster than a gt can go.

Trap speed is at the track what you finish the 1/4 mile at. So at the track. I wasn't really talking about specific street races or anything.

that is so true...there is noway u can compare my gt to a rx7...those cars are like superfast...u can compare it to a supra if u like


and asfar as street racing and speeding is involved...u guys are rite..its not worth it....

but this this is getin off topic...i just wanna know if the car could go faster....im not saying that ill go that fast everyday...and when i say fast, i dont mean i want supercar speed, just something like scion tc's and civic integra etc. u know fwd "ricer" cars lol

You mean acceleration then. Who cares about top speed? Leave that to McLaren F1's and Buggati Veyrons. You can turbo your 5SFE. I've seen 5SGTEs put down about 300hp. But if you don't want to turbo or swap, most you can cost-effectively do is your normal intake, header, exhaust mods. N/A, these cars are pretty slow...

Yeah, I dont have that much experience with these cars, but in general if you have any plans on making your car faster... just keep saving the money and go forced induction first. I remember spending boatloads of money on bolt-ons for basically crap performance. I think I only raised my trap speed 2-3 mph. For the price of all the boltons I could have bought used supercharger kit; which I did eventually anyway.

[4-eyed-freek]

^ agreed

[dudeofchaos]

Mine stops at 185Kph. But my friend's can go over 200kph. Dunno why.

[presure2]

ok, can we stop posting in this lame azz thread.

[stephen_lee]

ST is governed at 111mph
GT has no governor

but dont go much faster than the speed limit. the potential force your car has increases by the SQUARE of your speed. AND stopping distance is much longer. in other words, if something happens that you don't expect, your fcked. you drive past that fire station near DEATHs house? it has on display a car that was wrapped around something. wanna end up like that?

I would like a picture of resultant display "car".

And I agree with the wisdom in the thread - don't get reckless with your cars...or your lives.

Likely there is some amount of the driver still within that car as well.
I'm with Presure - this kind of thread deserves no response - it should be closed before anyone gets any stupid ideas.

[HectortheRican]
