FT-86 From 0 To 60?
 

Hello Guys

Guys, For all of you who have some expert about this engine

Do you actually have any idea how much this new FT will take to reach from 0 to 60?

200HP without DI and Toyota Dual VVTI

So maybe 220 HP with those two addition

And the car weight is around 2600 LBS

Can you assume how much it will take till it reach 60 MPH from full stop?

i think a more reasonable guess would be 5.5-6 seconds. keep in mind, there's a good chance two shifts will be necessary to hit 60mph.

HOllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

I pressed 4 instead of 5!!!!!!

what i mean is 5.0-5.2 and etc etc etc...

Edit: Can any Modetor or Admin fix my mistake please?

thanks.

I think it can hit high 4.0 sec. (turbo) :D

your right, Dont forget that this car will be free Revving engine, this might me good advantage to have smaller numbers to 60 MPH

To be honest, I really don't care for 0~60 numbers. Keep it close to original design, light weight, enough hp to keep the car side way then I don't care 0~60 was +6 secs.

well, I care more about 0 to 60 than cornering..

:thumbsup:

That's my opinion to, a lot of car makers can put a lot of horsepower in cars, the way it uses that power it's important(yeah I'm looking at you, yeah you, the guy that has a FWD VW Scirocco and thinks he drives a sports car), and of course the way the car looks is the other important thing. Look at the Mazda MX-5 Miata, it's not the most powerful or the fastest roadster on the market, but it's a very good balanced package that offers tons of fun when you are behind the wheel.

If that's the case, you're looking at wrong car (no offense). I can guarantee you, this car won't be faster than your current G37S in 0~60. iirc G37S 0~60 was 5.2 secs w 13.7 1/4 miles... yeah, my guess, FT86 be lucky if it gets under 6 secs w 14 secs 1/4 mile.

:thumbsup::thumbsup: yeah really dont care much about 0-60 but i care about is balance, weight, engine respons and brakeing. 0-60 in 6sec thats good enough for me...

I only want it to be less than 6 seconds. Reality of production will increase the weight(hopefully not make it obese) with safety features and the other bits and pieces.

As long as the car is fun to drive, I could care less about 0-60 times. Make it under 6-seconds and a complete blast to drive around, I'll be happy.

I live in the Chicago downtown/loop, and the only time one can enjoy their car's speed/power/acceleration is after 11PM, when everyone goes to bed. Huge power is almost useless here.

As long as its fun to drive and everything else the guy above me said.

new vote is 5.6-5.8. i can't vote because i already did, and it won't let me vote again. meh. not really that important, anyway. i haven't clocked it officially, but my MR2 does it in under 5 seconds.

With 2500-2700 lbs and 200-220hp, 60 mph isn't coming any faster than 6 seconds. Maybe High 5's with 1-foot of rollout.

Hm... interesting site. Just for fun, I did 200hp w 2800lbs & 220hp w 2800lbs and it came to be 6.05~5.63secs.

I did 220HP and 2500lbs (best case scenario) and got 5.2 :bow:

Totally inaccurate without knowing the gear ratios.

Gear ratio, type of tires & more yes thats inaccurate

most likely this car will be geared toward the quarter mile since its a 6 seed and it will prolly be at best 6.0 sec on 0-60. id prefer it to be better at the quarter mile anyway.

...what? so cuz it has 6 sp tranny, it's geared towards the 1/4 mile? Did I read it correctly?

I'd say the site is decent for a general idea. They just compiled a load of times with the cars stats and compared the numbers. In reality, it should take into account market choices like ratios and tires. But I do agree its nowhere near perfect, just something to think about

I don't want to break it, but I think the base will do 0-60 in about 7.5- 8 seconds assuming they put in a 2.0L engine. The STI with 305hp would be a dream come true, but at best it would do ~5.5 given the perfect dimensions. Also, wouldn't the insurance for a small car an a high hp engine be insane?

hmmmm :word:ierd

Even my Range rover (DD car) can do better than that

What? 204hp IS250 RWD with 3455lb can run 0-60 in 7.9 sec(can be done better because it's official 0-60 from Lexus.). How comes a car weighted under 3000lb with the same power runs about the same 0-60?
This should be, at worst, 6.8-7.0 sec.
Yes, insurance rate is insane for people under 25, but it's not the real matter.

I will say the worst case is 6.0

Com'n people whats up with these scary numbers 6.8, 7.0, 7.5 and 8.0?

Did you forget that this is not just a subie 2.0 engine? its also with

Direct injection
Toyota "Dual" VVTi
Free Revving engine
10.5 Compression Ratio
Car Weight Under 2800 LBS

Last and not least, Only god knows what is the gear ratio of this car, I hope its 3.5 and above (More like 3.7 or so)

The Lexus has a 2.5L V-6. I think realistically the car will weigh ~2900-3100 lbs with the needed safety equipment and a proper interior. Also, Toyota will want this car to get AT LEAST 30mpg in the base; that doesn't come without any trade-offs. I would rather be pessimistic and have Toyota surprise me once they announce the production version.

:iono: what made you say that?

i hope and i know this wont be a quarter mile car.

I own 2IS myself. My car(AWD) is a hundred or 200 lb heavier than base model, and it's the heaviest car I have ever owned (SUV not counted). Realistically, 2IS is nowhere lighter than 3200lb.

Drifter car. Get a copy of GT5, you will know what is this car for.

I think you are assuming a lot, and if you are looking for fast 0-60, you will be bitterly disappointed by this car.

For circa 2600lbs and 210hp, it doesn't get much better than 6 seconds.

VW Scirrocco R, 6.5 sec

Mazda RX-8, 5.8 sec

Celica GT-S, 7.2 sec

All similar to slightly better P/W ratios to what is assumed/speculated for an NA FT-86.

It really is pointless to guess, as we don't know what the final specs are going to be, much less the gear ratios, final drive, what tyres, lsd or no, launch control or no.... Based on popular estimates of power and weight (and the Aisin gearbox) though, I believe it will be in the six second range, low 6s on good days, high on bad days, averaging around 6.5 secs. Perhaps high 5's on rare occasions, or with bolt-ons or 1 foot roll of out. I wouldn't mind one bit if Toyota proves me wrong though.

It's not a mustang or genesis V6 guys. Willing to bet that though, around a circuit it will equal or better either.

Base model with around 170hp ...+6 sec think

I'd rather a 3 speed for a quarter mile with a butt load of torque than a 6 speed that revs out.. This is great handling car, not a great accelerating car
As matador and few others have said, without knowing the Full drivetrain ratios, it is useless (but fun) to speculate. And to that extent since I don't mind being disappointed, I'm gonna say 0-60 4.5 0-100 6.5 (yeah just for fun)
In reality I'd b happy with 0-60 6

^ +1

I say 0-60 in 5.7
mark this post

Sounds like insider trading :p

I say 2 seconds top!!!

What? F1 had sex with Veyron?

Yeah, it's called X1
