Ha
My 30 year old (never opened) 1.8L did a 20.23 @ 66mph per one of those g-force computers! Blinding speed! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_rolli_1.gif) |

The 240Z was quite a bargain in it's day. Few weeks ago seen one of those Jensen Healys in a park. Cool little car. Owner said it had the lotus 4 in it. Was in excellent original shape.

numbers like that really make you question all the ebay ads that say "it's very fast". fast compared to someone on a 10 speed bike but that's about it.

Using a g-tech pro, I got the following for my '74 2.0
0-60 8.7 sec qtr mile 16.68 sec @ 84.7mph Pretty close to the numbers in the road test posted above. My gas mileage also matches the road test (18-21mpg) Demick |

My completely stock '73 1.7L 914 with unknown mileage (75k on clock) and 205-60-15 tires would do 0-60 in about 10.5 seconds plus or minus about .5 seconds depending on fuel load, temperature, passenger load, etc. This was pre gtech using a stopwatch. It was very consistently 10-11 seconds every time I tested it.

Anyone have one of those computer car performance guizmoes that i could try in my V8 car? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I'm in the bay area. I know renegade gives some numbers but i want to know them for my car. Curious minds want to know.

2000 Amps in a 914 Group: Members Posts: 174 Joined: 3-March 03 From: Corvallis, OR, USA Member No.: 387 |
Clearly mine is not stock, but its' done the 1/4 mile in 13.8 at 99 mph and did 0-60 in 5.2seconds using a G-tech before I turned it up with new batteries. I estimate its about 5.0 seconds for current 0-60 times.
I'm guessing that the v8's are quicker, but this one is still fun. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif) |
