d_k_jose_s12Jun 21, 2009, 2:36 am · #2

are u talking abput the quater mile run or a 0-60 run?

GusJun 21, 2009, 2:51 am · #3

1/4, 0-60.. Either way it should be about the same, lol..

Im looking for 1/4 times though..

GusJun 21, 2009, 3:04 am · #5

I was curious as mine ran a 16.41 @ 82mph.. Shitty 60ft though..

Odometer stopped @ 242k, needs an oil change, and needs new rear subframe bushings..

Yeah you need to get the oil changed because I let mine to run on bad oil and now I have a bad head and its making a horrible noise=/ so get that done

i ran a 16.2 w/ a sweet 60' time, and a good et too. i had a busted valve spring. im positive it could hit mid to high 15's.

0 to 60 was in the ballpark of 7 seconds.

My 0-60 was in the ballpark of 10 seconds.. I trapped 66 in the 1/8th and ran a 10.4 in the 1/8th..

...my long sold 87 SE/auto, with the usual n/a upgrades, ran 0-60 in 8.2 sec....200,000 plus miles.

According to Car and Driver the official 87 SE 1/4 mile time was 16.5 @ 84mph.

-what gus said

and i couldnt ever get past a high 7 second 0-60 due to traction issues.  i either had to dog it out all the way thru 1st or i would spin thru 1st and most of 2nd.  never tried drag slicks tho

i searched thru and found my times..apparently i never scanned the piece of paper..thought i did..

anyhow, before i said 16.2 i was wrong.  

Reaction - .5170
60' - 2.408
1/4 mile - 16.54 @ 83.84 MPH.
 
Im positive i ran a better 60' in there somewhere, but the slips are BURIED in a box, within a box (moved three times since hitin the strip..)

here's a video i found..my car..

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...videoid=1726893

that video pisses me off b/c the idiot in the left lane took off WAY before the light, so it looked like had a bad launch.

and yes..there was a guy in it (the blue pos) with him. vid description says i ran a 16.29, so maybe i did run..

My 86xe 5spd ran consistent 18.1s in highschool.

Except.... that's an XE which has the 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, and we're talking about the SE with the 3.0L V6 in it
PraizewoodOct 2, 2009, 2:13 am · #19

Now we have had Se and 2.0, anyone know the realistic numbers on a ca18et both 1/4 miles and 0-60?

RedneckOct 2, 2009, 2:52 am · #20

According to the car and driver article I posted earlier the turbo and the SE run the same 16.5 in the 1/4 mile.

I know i figured i would just throw it in there for shits and giggles. Just so everyone with an SE could feel a little faster lol

I think I read somewhere that the turbo did 0-60 in 7.9, but that has the be the 135hp version.
