the 4.9 second challenge

[VN_Luke]

I just kinda gave up gteching on the street after that 5.1 with no traction.

Highway Max's were a bit better, but still not really all that helpful, and specially not when the boost was wound right up

I'll give it another crack when the car is setup a little bit better for gription.

Silly Season

After head gasket incident I have decided that no more driving of the VP will take place until cooler is fitted. As I ran 5.055 without it I am sure I will be sub 5 when its fitted. When that will be? Who knows... I am mega busy for the next 2 months, and then there is Christmas to avoid.

3" Piping simply wont fit.

Besides I am still waiting on the adaptor bracket to turn the intake over onto the driver's side.

Kind regards,

I have larger headers and all the extra calais stuff in the bay. Trust me.. It's going to be a mission getting 2.5" in.

What were your 60ft, 330ft, 660ft times and/or speeds?

 

[LowVp]

13.645@105mph 2.307 60ft, not one ounce of traction inside the 60ft

I know this is an old thread but i thought i'd post anyways

VS V6 EXECUTIVE-
-5 speed manual with a exedy heavy duty clutch
-Live axel, non lsd running stock 3.08 gears

MODS-
-OTRCAI, one from holden
-Crappy custom tuned memcal
-2.5" Catback exhaust
-Also has new plugs, leads, dfi module, coil packs, oil, oil filter and fuel filter with a newish air filter

Current Time - Best of 7.83 according to g-tech, was only my second run and i had a crappy launch, prob get down to 7.5 if i got perfect launch and gear changes. Car was also tested with full tank of fuel, sub+amp in boot, spare tyre and 20kg of tools in boot.

Any estimations as to what i'd run 1/4 mile
