didnt the M3's do 13's?

or was that the later/current models?

Early Ls1's such as VT - VY were like low 14s and I think the series 2 VY onwards in motor finally nailed a 13.9

Thats the LS1's though...

LS2's high 13's from factory

Being an Ex LS1 owner Id rather an M3 :D

The E36 M3 wasn't very fast. 6.0sec 0-60mph and 14.6sec 1/4 mile time. Wasn't until the next generation that the M3 became a rocket. I have no idea what the SS runs in the 1/4, but I have driven the E36 M3 and its nothing to write home about. Only a shade faster than the Viggen and cost $10k more, but thats a different argument entirely. Anyways, look up the 1/4 mile numbers on the Commodore and if its faster than 14.6sec it will beat the M3.

Side note - The M3 would whoop the Commodores ass around a proper track though.

it all depends on what model ls1 it is.

if it was a vt or vx i'd say the m3. later models it would be close. with a good set of tyres a m3 would beat a lot of reasonably stock r33's. i saw one put down 233hp (173kw) at the wheels at a dyno day. it was stock. some old rich guy just wanted to put it on to see what it would get.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
