Don't the VZ Commos have the 3.8L engine? The BMW 330i for sure has 170kW from factory.

LOL, no they don't run a 3.8L.

They run a 3.6 Alloytec, and a multitude of gearboxes which alter the performance.

If we're getting into this one, on a good run, the Honda Jazz will out do certain Alloytec V6 Commos to 80KM/H... The real test is that it will be beaten by the commo on the 1/4 mile.

I've seen many 300 and 400RWKW cars get munched in a traffic light GP, purely because they're a pig to get off the mark, but once above 100KM/H they really mumbo. The 0-100KM/H is HUGELY dependent on the launch...

just to add the RALLIART magna is the fastest non turbo 6 cylinder (quickest car legal under Restrictions)

3.5 L V6

180 KW

0-100 - 6.8 sec

1/4 Mile - 14.7 sec

apparently they could even beat the VT SS and AU XR8.

the VrX Magna also had a 3.5 L V6 which produced 155 KW

so my argument is that the Fastest cars out there for P Platers are sports sedans. EG. Magna, XR6, SS.

Make your choice if you want your car too look cool (imports like, NA supras,skyline, Mr2, 300ZX, impreza etc.all which have reasonable performance) or have the fastest car possible

i'm a responsible driver, others just fly past me on a 60 road and i'm like, "calm down buddy far out...." (99% of the time)

PLUS -> i've never ever got a fine, speeding ticket, parking ticket, red camera or any road related offence in my almost 2 years of driving, that's how responsible i am...

a turbo skyline/supra will endevour to pop your police encounter cherry, they too have some sort of dark evil magic inside them :D

S2000/Integra Type R are both faster than a Magna and still legal under P plate laws.

No one said anything about price, this guy said that the magna is faster....which is bullshit.

How many 17yo kids do you know who could afford the S2000...also not much faster in a straight line to the magma or a 4L falcon etc...and tahst all 17yo kids car about.

He said quickest 6cyl I believe...?

S2k, ITR's are 4cyl.

Anyway, along with s2k's and itr's, also ep3r's, golf r32's and n/a supras are pretty quick, 0-100. Those would be my picks if that was the goal.

Although I can kind of see where the OP is coming from (imagining the R34 would be quicker); it's not really, such is how it is.

It's still a nice car imo; but you won't be the quickest mofo on the road, lols. Reasonable performance and nice looks imo (:

'93 stock NA Supra will do 0-100 anywhere between 6.2 (independently tested) and 6.7secs (factory claimed) according to various sources. nyaanyaa.gif

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
