Just wondering, what would a 400bhp 3 door do 0-100? could it do it in 10s

 

no chance more like 12's id say

 

Thats slow for 400 horses

 

they are not the best of cars to get off the line mate

 

Yes it could

Mine does and that was timed at Brunters (Up Hill)

Mine is only on Greens, and about 350bhp.

You can't drive then

Steve.

 

Iknow that rsnissan, but 12s

 

what suspension/ beam have you got


i stand corrected then

 

With good grip and a good launch it will do it

 

RWD Should do 10s with 400bhp

 

yeah,10s sounds about right! if you can hang into 100mph in 3rd gear!

 

feck i just realised you were not talking about 1/4 mile............opened the topic went off did something else and then came back to it. That'll teach me to do more than one thing at once

 

Not so
A few years back a MAD rwd Saff ran 0-100 in 10.2secs anyone remember Mark Syers chromed up Saff. It just made 400bhp.

Standard beam, koni shocks and chassis dynamic springs. Full Trim as well, even spare wheel.

yep i know now i was being retarded and read the question wrong

 

Good times those cossie4i

 

Thank You

Will see how much Power it has on Saturday, well compaired with the figures i have got.

Steve.

 

nice pretty much the same spec/set up as me then

 

Its a nice set up, not too firm and not too soft. Im pleased with it

Steve.

 

My Sapphire with 385bhp used to regularly do 12s quarters at 115mph, which when compared to other similar cars that had done identical quarters and terminals that had their 0-100s also tested (Autocar), equated to 0-100mph in 9.5-9.8s.

 

I remember that well. Was the 1st big power cossie i went out in. Lets not forget 400 bhp cossie is still a very fast car.

 

 

id say easily with a good driver

 

 

So does this mean i have 385bhp

My 1/4 time ain't great but my terminal is 115.59mph

So what do you rekon people, is my car this powerful ?

Was done at the Pod last year with full trim.

Steve.

 

 

Depends on weight of you and car combined . If it equals 1345kg, then that would give you an indication that you are approaching this output.

However, I could bang out 12s run after 12s run (did 10 in one day once) .

 

Well its a XR4i fitted with full cossie runnig gear and i weigh 18.5 stone.

I can't launch to save my life

Steve.

 

 

What the tears for ?

Steve.

 

for Beach.

Steve.

 

Yee haa

 

mine did 7,968 sec 0-92Mhp (147km/h) So I think 10s. is possible

 

 

Dont know what mine would do ill have to see what power it makes, im sure it will be tested at some point
