0-60mph Times
 
I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but whatever. I only have an HKS filter and the sound tube delete. I managed a 7 second 0-60. (I'm not in any way a seasoned/professional driver.)

I've seen times as low as 6.2 for the FR-S and 6.1 for the BRZ...so lets go with the 6.1. At the same time a friend of mine saw 7.3 for the BRZ on car buzz.

This is all manual of course. What is a good number for our actual 0-60? Of course there is driver variances.

Call it 6.4 or so, and be done.

6.4 on my end...my one and only attempt.

0-60 times vary with altitude so the results will vary by location.

You must also take coreolis into account.

You bought the wrong car if you're worried about 0~60. :thumbsup:

Enjoy the turns!

I looked it up. How much of an effect does it really have though?

Coreolis = Me being an ass. It's completely irrelevant.

boredom.is.me 02-18-2013 05:15 PM

Ah gotcha.

I got 6.6 seconds with G-tac :iono:

Edit: Starscream, what is the physics business you speak of?

Starscream15 02-18-2013 06:42 PM

I only mentioned it because altitude was mentioned. Just being snarky.

Random Useless facts to follow:

If you're on the equator and accelerate to the west to 60mph in 6.6 seconds, you're still moving 978mph in the other direction. I would call that deceleration.

:laughabove:

Next useless lesson; Time Dilation.

Perfect conditions and a clutch and drivetrain irritating 5500RPM launch is good for 6.4 Seconds.

A street launch is 8.0 Seconds.
