0-60 time for stock ve 5sp

Does anyone know the stock 0-60 time for a bone stock ve 5speed and a bone stock 5 speed vg? Im thinking of selling my Vg and getting a ve 5sp and wondering if its worth it.

Last I saw an old magazine article placed the 3G SE 5spd 0-60 time at a best of 7.0 seconds flat. I would guess that to be on a day that's sunny, 72 degrees and on dry pavement.

Motor Trend Oct. 1991 (Road Test)
0-60 = 7.6 seconds
Quarter mile = 15.9 @ 89.4 mph

Car and Driver Nov. 1991 (Road Test)
0-60 = 6.7 seconds
Quarter mile = 15.3 @ 91 mph

Car and Driver Aug. 1992 (Comparison Test with Camry SE and SHO)
0-60 = 7.0
Quarter Mile = 15.5 @ 91 mph

I think tires would play as big a part 0-60 as anything. For the quarter mile, basic bolt ons should get you in the upper 14s or low 15s.

There's no way even a modded max with na bolts ons is going to pull a legit sub 6 sec time.

A stock 240hp E36 M3 does the 0-60 in about 5.7-5.9. And they are rwd. So you are going to need a hell of alot more than 240hp. Look at what the 3.5VQ maximas are pulling and they have 260-270hp.

I dont know... i read what the thing tells me, and I let up just after 60. I'll have to repeat it with someone in the car with a stop watch, cuz certainly time dilation shouldnt be a problem since we arent at relativistic speeds.

gtech is going to be ALOT more accurate than a stop watch

besides who really cares about 0-60 times

0-60 time isn't the most acurate way of judging which car will get to point B from point A first.

Car A with a 0-60 of 6.6 can be behind Car B with a 0-60 time of 7.0

Time to distance is a more accurate way of judging which is the quicker car.

Gtech has always been optimistic for speed times. Plus you have to do it going both ways in order to cancel out the uphill/downhill thing. Plus you have to punch in the correct weight etc.........

the timing shouldnt have to do anything with the weight.... only the power figures should.

Don't you have to punch in the weight?? That's why the 1/4 time at the track is really the best way to calculate.

I don't think a G-Tech is all that accurate. I have one and it just collects dust. If you want to find out how fast your car is, take it to the track.

I got just over 9 sec 0-60 (well 0-100km/h anyways) and I don't really want to belive that since I have an auto

probably my friend with the stopclock being a bit fast on the thumb.

I've read MANY reviews about G-Tech and it's not that accurate. It's useful for before/after comparisons, but I wouldn't trust the times.
Do you really believe you could pull under 6 seconds 0-60? (I know - HEATED DRAG RADIALS!)

I have an old mag from 94' were Nissan in a commercial for the SE themselves say it does it in 7.1 sec. I'll post pics up, once I get my hands on a cam. As for the VG, my stock auto does 8.1 sec with 115K.. Was 7.6s when I just bought it at 84K

The VQ35DE maximas (2002-2003) are overrated. They are getting 205WHP on the dyno. That means 240 crank hp. The 0-60 is 6.0, and that is with a 3250-3270 lbs curb weight. It's the torque that helps them: 220-225WTQ on the dyno, probably 260 crank.

Ok The g tek That i have seems to be pertty good I use it three ot four times at the track and everytime I ran with in .2 to the the g tek. The g tek seem to read about .1 to .2 Higher than the time for me on my time slip.

Now why sell the VG.

I have a Vg and im doing like mid to low 6's for 0 to 60 With wheel spin in second. All stock ..........

Ok well maybe not all stock but it is close

Here is the deal, a 5spd VE with bolt ons that traps ~94-96mph with a 2.2x 60' runs a 6.1-6.2 0-60. Now with a 2.0x-2.1x 60' the car should run 5.9-6.0 0-60s
