paul w Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 @enzolol, okay.now i would explain to both of you, but i doubt very much ud understand.I've had cars you can only wank over in your dreams lad! Celica GT4 ST 205,Skyline R33 GTS.Both of Which were comfortably rapid,unlike you i don't have something to prove to anybody! I would respect the car if you had built it,but you didn't,you bought a car that was,in your own words fucked! OOPSY! That £2500 for the rebuild could've been spent on the Glanza you blew £5000 on! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scutch0 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 ok, i retract my previous comment, i just thought it was being a bit harsh, thats all.so has anyone actually worked out the 0-60 time then?doesnt look like it.if im honest i cant seem to get a better 0-60 than around the 8 second mark on standard boost.

scutch0 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 on a stopwatch, im on 195/50/15 pirelli p6000's and i've tried going right thu 2nd, and using 3rd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdDaMan Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 hmm stopwatch isnt the best, a g-tech wud be better but still, i wud not be happy with those times if i were you mate. you had it dynoed? i suspect its running less than std power, my second glanza was. took some restoring.

Idrees Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 oh jesus here we go...! what i was implying was that he should mind his own business.mind my own business? on a public forum? doesnt work like that bud. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Woah, talk about hot topic.If I may say so, it's only a 0-60 time guys, a few hundreths of a second surely doesn't matter that much?(as has been said already)GT's and Glanza's are damn quick, and beat pretty much any other car their size, can't you just be content with that?Please people, chill..

AdDaMan Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 firstly the gtech doesnt actually start untill you do ie you can actually creep forward (its good like that) well wen i got it i knew something was up as id previously owned a glanza which was alot quicker. i first tried fault finding and i went to a place for fault diagnostics and they cudnt seem to find anything, nevertheless i got it dynoed and it was running at 130bhp and that was witha catback exhaust and induction kit and no boost restriction. i timed the 0-60 and it was shite cudnt get it under 7.0 and was normally in the 8's. was always struggling for traction with semibald tyres. anyway bought new plugs new leads dizzy cap rotor arm, new tyres and it started feeling right again. 0-60 was then down to about 7flat and i felt happy again..started modding a little more and the better it got, on 0.8bar boost best 0-60 i got was 6.4 with no back seats on my own. and a few lil mods. was happy with that.

Mikey Jay Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 My thought's exactly.It's all very well knowing official times but at the end of the day the car is fast anyways and the acceleration varies on how good the driver is with the clutch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
