6.5 Seconds Ali? You're nearly as fast as TT's, wonder what TT's would get then.

I did a 0-100 run in 7.2 seconds, 3 up with a full gas tank. this was with a stopwatch though, so take it with a grain of salt. still, they are fast all right.

knock off 150kgs off the z31 and give it a manual + tune and you would have a fastish car by todays standards

I timed my car (1991 uzz31) when purchased last year.

190,000 km's on the clock - car looked brand new.

6.6 seconds to 100kmh with 98 ron and octane booster.

I have a video somewhere, I'll try find it :-)

Spec in USA says 0-60mph in 6.9 seconds.
Spec in Aus says 0-100kmh in 7.5 seconds.

Right now, due to issues, the car is reaching 100kmh in 8.5 seconds...

Pretty much no power til you hit 30kmh in any gear.

Yeah all kinds of issues will slow a 1UZ Soarer down.

What problems are you having?

Ive found bad ECU caps, bad ignition (ie water in plug tubes, broken leaks etc), bad AFM, various bad sensors or even gearbox issues will slow the car down off the line to that degree.

Try unplugging your AFM and resetting the ecu (10amp dome / 30amp EFI fuses removed for a few seconds) that might alter the fuel and timing to get you moving off the line quicker.

I think my stock UZZ32 can hit 100kph in about 7.5 seconds

Keep in mind theres a about a .5 second gap between 60mph and 62mph, it's good for brochures, as 60mph can show a time of up to .5 seconds against a truer 62mph time.
