    mines a VS V6 with 270000klms on the clock and I've ran a 15.7 and only mods are no cat natually forced cold air induction, by natually forced I meen I don't have a turbo or super charger just the scoopes on the bonnet which the air is forced into while driving along the faster you go the more that the air is forced into the engine.

    Is 15 what you would expect a VR/VS to do down the 1/4
    Drifting in a front wheel drive, is like going to maccas for an apple, Possible but pointless

    Lose the lump of steel on the front... might get ya some .1's

    Might send mine down the 1/4 if we ever organise a night to go out to AIR.

    my best time was 16.2 I'm driving a vs v6 and I have done is CAI and K&N filter, I think a LSD would help that heaps because when I take off it squeals and my reactions times are bad I'm it takes me over a second to realise it's green. Although I just got a service done and it's running alot better now so I could prob get 15's if I went back to the track.

    are you sure because I've dropped it into first and gunned it because I ashumed it would auto change up but finding out it only does it from first to second I hit the rev limiter at 140

    My old vs would shift to third at around 120... that's at WOT. I'd be very surprised if it made it to 140... might have to try it one day with the s/c and see where it gets to.

    you can't really judge by their finishing speed if their talking shit it just shows where your car picks up it's speed better like there's a good video on the FIT website with a holden v6 s/c V's ford boss v8 the holden won of course but it crossed the line slower than the ford. If you don't believe someone get them to post their slip.

    the mph shows alot about the run if say a car runs 14.4@102 u could definantly say that car has more potenial in it because by the looks of that time it had a slow 60ft.just wanna see if the numbers match there times
