+1.

Maybe we need a brag thread for all you hoons out there? I would make it myself, but seems pointless because i couldn't beat a snail driving a Hyundai Excel in reverse.

O Jesus no doubt he wasn't driving in properly!!! If he did I would be left for dead but he wasn't givng it 100% cause people really do think that H6 and GT liberty's etc aren't anything to drag about that's all

Or, (c) He has nothing he has to prove;

Not sure If I would agree. My H6 didn't seem to be as quick off the mark as my GT. (Stock for stock) But i didn't properly test 0-60/100 so it could have just felt quicker through the power delivery

this is me being a little naive (is that the right word?) just getting facts off of redbook. GT is 6.9 for the 0-100 and the h6 is rated at 7 for the 0-100

i know these are the utmost best conditions, best tuned, lowest weight possible.. yadda yadda yadda, but i some how know the GT is faster than that

so yes, Hamish, im agreeing with you! :)

Top effort Jack. I'm proud! :good:

Something in these 2.5's! Went past an Audi R8 yesterday with ease. Didn't even have it in Sport mode either. It was parked and all, but pfft, who cares. Gotta bring your A game no matter what.

6.9 for the GT??? It's supposed to be like 6.5 or something...or even 6

Yes, well, Redbook also states there that fuel consumption is 12.5l/100km for the 3.0R. If I was using that much fuel, I would have to be wondering what I'm doing wrong. Although I suppose if I were doing 0-100kph in 6.9secs every time I accelerated, then I might start using that much.

cheers,
