oh my god
« on: 04 June 2004, 13:16 »
last night i did a test drive to my baby. I was pushing to the extreme (there  
was even some kind of explosion in the exhaust :). Anyway, here are the figures: max speed 122 miles per hour at the 5900rpm (maybe pushing to 6000-6200 would give 125), 0-60 time was only 7, but an extra 0.5-1sek could be added to be very precise.

'90, 1.8 8v digi Gkat 107bhp


Any comments about my results?

I reckon 4 minute egg-timer and then estimate how much sand was left in the top half of the hour-glass?

That's ridiculous!  How can you possibly be accurate with a 4 minute timer?

You need a 1 minute timer, otherwise there's just too much sand!

Maybe he's running larger rims so has a dodgy speedo ... top end of 2nd in 6.5 secs is about right for an 8 valve - should be pulling just over 50 if you change at the right point.

You think 16 / 17's with 45 / 50 profile tyres could increase the speed by 10 mph at that speed ?

Or perhaps your all right and he's been on the magic mushies  ::) ;D

i have already said i don't think 7 sek is very accurate, so i add an extra 1 sek, so it's 8 sek. It's enough to me, having in mind that it is absolutely standart, even with a catalytic converter and only 107bhp. My rims and tyres: "13 ATS rims, 185/60 yokohamas in front and 205/60 firestones in the back.


I pushed her so hard, maybe even too hard..... :)

i've heard that some digifants have more power then it is said on a paper, like 120-130bhp. Maybe mine is also one of those f**k*rs, although on paper it's only 107. That would explain everything.
