No. What a load of crap
add a second and a half on top for each based on stock vehicles.
Don't know where the 0-100 figures come from either, the TT is quicker to 100 than the V8 as well.

Going by those figures the TT would have been quicker than most Porsche's and Ferrari's of that time.

Sports + Luxury suck, no questions asked.

They're good if you want an overpriced service, thats it.

Oh, and their mechanic James Johnson is handsome :-)

Haha - this page of statistics...........

I came across this page a few years ago, it was like they plucked the performance figures for the 3 models out of thin air!

Completely wrong!

Pretty bad page of stats. The 0-100 time of 6.9 is sooo wrong for the TT.

Mine is bloody 16 years old and did it in 6.3 stock. 6.1 with cat back and pod.

On the other hand, I like sports and luxury. They are expensive, but I find them very honest and helpful. I've dealt with too many dodgy mechanics that I dont mind paying extra for someone I trust.

Morgan, who would you suggest is better than S&L?

A VVTi SC400 V8 US Spec Soarer would be lucky to do a 14.7 quarter!

Does know one believe that a tt can do a 14.5? I think they can with the original cat, not the compliancing one but I guess I'll find out as soon as I get a helmet.

What do uzz do over the quarter stock? I think my old jzz-31 would be around the 16s. Be interesting to see what turbo vvti does stock? Go on Shadi you know you want to try.

A stock V8 Soarer would be between 15.0 seconds and 16 seconds.

JZZ31's seem to be good for 16.0-16.5's

I ran 14.9s in my UZZ31 with exhaust and TT diff

no other mods or weight removed

so 15 sec would be about right for completely stock

The US SC's got shorter ratio diffs and were lighter than the equivalent Soarers so probably had better figures

Haha good one mate definatey got me there. Yes I intend to eventually

Also if you get mods down and know of any good places to get them let me know please because getting cheap aftermarket mods for the vvti is a bit of a pain. Cheers

You could get mid to high 15's easy in a 3.0GT with a few intake, exhaust mods and decent road tyres.

Around 16 for a good one seems to be the case when stock.

Yeah that was stock as a rock and it wasnt running too great till about 4000rpm with the dodgy spark plugs. its great now with the properly gapped iridum ones. When i get the zorst done and my BFI setup I'll take it for another fang down the strip.
