acceleration from 0-60mph... Options

[6strngs]

I had a G-tech measure my 0-60 time for my manual GT with all the mods I have in my profile and it read like a 9.2 for 0-60 and 1/4 mile time was 17.7.

it also read that my car had 84 horsepower and my friend's truck (which my car can beat in a 1/4 mile) had like 350 horsepower. so, I don't think the thing is too accurate. lol

I got a 7.78 today. That was the best run. Stop watch was in the shifter hand. It was a slight down hill. Not what I would call a hill, but it just wasn't level. My time would improve with better clutch and better gripping tires. I spin in 1st and 2nd, and bark into 3rd.

what mods do you have? I can only barely chirp into 2nd with a stage 2 clutch!

My best 0-60 time in the ST was 8 seconds flat, when i had it turbo'd i was in the 6second range at 7psi. i dont know what it is now with the nitrous.

Check profile.

Performance Modifications
Loud muffler

Suspension Modifications
Added weight for lower stance

Exterior Modifications
I washed it once

Interior Modifications
I sit in it, and that makes the car look better

More Info
Honestly, do you really give a crap what I have to say?


perhaps you need to update your profile?

I measured 5.x s last year with a stopwatch from the time my foot hit the pedal until the needle hit 60's tick mark right at the center. I did it multiple times and averaged it. A manual with my setup should be way less. I'm on an auto so the turbo has nice lag because I don't brake boost.

[nate95]

well that was right about 5.9-6 seconds on just 7psi...when i ran 10-12 PSI im sure it was alot quicker, but i had no way of being able to drive the car and time it at that much PSI

[OOBE]

Yep, I was at 7 PSI too, LOL. Haven't measured at 10-12 PSI.

[nate95]

mines manual, so i couldn't even begin to imagine what it would be like to drive it at 12 psi and time it,,lol.. that would be rediculous with the tourqe steer you almost have to have both hands on the wheel.

Nah, that's pretty much it. I'm stock. Intake/header/exhaust

My old car was like that. You didn't want to let go of that wheel for nothing. It was actually kind of scary sometimes. Especially on patches of gravel and stuff like that. It would spin, and with out LSD, one wheel would catch and just throw you. I used my left at about the 2 o'clock position, and then locked my arm across the wheel with my elbow at about the 8 o'clock. Oh, this car didn't have powersteering either. I'm glad the Celica has it.

mine is running 7.5 with wet shot nos, have got her up to 395 BHP on the rolling road and still room for more power me thinks, has anyone on here tryed fitting a water injector? could do with knowing before i spend £500 on the kit, next stop for me is a supercharger conversion from AWTracksport should take me to about 500 bhp im hoping

is that with a 3sgte? what other mods do you have?

also, yes, lagos put a devilsown water/methanol injection kit on his 3sgte, and presure2 put the same water/methanol injection kit on his 5sfte. They both seemed to like it, and I think lagos said his added like 18 WHP, so it can't be too bad.

na mine is the 2l GT have listed all me mods and pic in my newbie thred :0

[jason]

just ran some times tonight with a friend in the car

me - 180lbs
cousin - 170lbs
subs in the trunk
tires
clutch & flywheel
head

on flat land ran a 7.26 fastest with him timing, spun in 1st a bit and into 2nd

up hill was somewhere around 9.8~ times varied too much

and slight down hill (on ramp) was about 4 haha

i noticed the most gain from changin the head - still on stock intake n exhaust and after puttin that i noticed alot more power/torque ill have to time some 60-100 runs

[Valo666]

im gonna head to the track in a few weeks when it opens, when i go ill get my slip and scan it. see what a mildly tuned GT with no real weight adders to it will run.

[Insanity-74]

Just under 5 secs 0-60

60-80 takes a little longer due to the 4WD taking alot of the power,

80-100+ in no time at all, the turbo is at its optimum at this speed and it just flies

[Justin]

Well here is a vid I made a couple days ago. 94 Celica ST with intake and exhaust at sea level. I think its somewhere around 9.2-9.5.

maybe if you dumped the clutch at like 2500 instead of 4000 you might not spin the tires so much and might get a better time...
