hahaha, oh dear god, you suck at lunches :D lol, you're as bad as me. I can't help but light up the 225s every time I try and give her some stick. Up yours, greenfoam and your stupid tune ^^

Anything in the 5s is a damn fast time for a near-stock car. Gears will be a killer in a V8, we'll see what happens to greenfoam's soon!

You need to post that damn time in the G-Tech Heroes thread under General ;) haha. Welcome to the club!

Hes got pacemakers and a zoorst (and a manual which is worth serious time over a auto 5 litre). I gteched a pacemaker/zoorst VQ stato once with 2 fat guys in it and me and it ran a 6.8 which I thought was pretty good (the owner reckons it also had cam/heads/tune but I dunno about that), it makes a fairly big difference to the bottom end and mid range grunt having pacemakers. But yep 6.11 is real nice :) a couple degrees more spark advance in the tune would dump that into the 5's without any problem. You don't even need to rish the long run down the 1/4 because 6.11s in the manual VS would be about............ 14.6 :)

Cool cool, so now i've got it in my mind i have to get it in the 5's soon, probly without gears, with gears will make it no probs... but yeah basically stock 5 ltr, just exhaust and well the guy i bought it off told me its got a chip, and i have got the reciept for it BUT, it was done in '96 by powerchip in melbourne, so i have NO idea what kinda chip it was or if there was much gain etc, i honestly have no clue...
But i wasnt expecting a time like that im pretty happy, cause the car feels like its trying too hard and u can really feel it kick in and slow down through the rev range, like its not smooth through out but i guess thats just cause im completly used to it and know it like the back of my hand but yeah... feels slow to me and im always wanting more......
Ive still got to do my plugs and leads... they are STILL sitting in my back seat, for like 3-4 weeks now its sad, gotta work out how the hell to get to the left hand side plugs, and also to get to the coil pack at the back...
Im on holidays now so ill get some time on my hands to take a look!

Hahahaha thanks man, yeah i REALLY should im too lazy, but i have been real busy lately, ill blame it on that, might have a crack at it tmoz.
The road i been doin it on starts to go up a bit of a slope, but im already slowing down by that point so its pretty damn flat for the 0-60 part of it.
Havnt done a quater yet, need to find a better road.
