cheapest way of getting under 6 secs

[Paul RS]

2wd sapph cossie will probably do that with just a stage one chip and good tyres.

 

[pablo]

well it would do it once anyway

 

[marky]

would take both those yank tanks 6 mins to do 60mph

 

[marky]

kit car /bike engine i bought mine for 4k dont even bother with pinto they are tooooo slow

 

[pablo]

dont forget too heavy

Zing!

 

[Rob]

Mitsibish 3000GT would be another quick budget car...

 

[forde]

micra, tear everything out and stick a fireblade engine in, pretty cheap if you can do teh work yourself

 

[DaddyCC]

Xsara VTS???

I love a lot of these ideas, 3 or 4k is hardly cheap

 

[pablo]

is there a budget?

 

[scub]

remember too all those 15 + y/o cars and high milers will have lost a good chunk of their power over the years more than likely!

Early scooby stripped, full exhaust and remap...

I would think with the 4WD/Traction this wouldnt fair too badly?

I was going to suggest a motorbike, but then I read your 1st post.

EDIT: I the sound of fordes idea!! Any videos or pictures of this already done?

for cheapness, standard suzuki swift GTI (mk1) £300 to £600 stripped out, all inner pannels cut out. bullit proof wee donkeys

 

[marky]

300 zx twin turbo will do under 6secs and can be got cheap , just think before you boot it lol

 

[barry-ni]

ive got it ... 300zx

Said it before me, 300zx twin turbo, with a remap, and un restictive gas flow will bring you under 6 seconds, for 3k or less,

 

[barry-ni]

damn marky lol always a little bit quicker!

 

[marky]

mate has an mr2 turbo for sale full ss exhaust turbo just rebuilt with invoice for £800 and its a very cheap car.

 

[santoz]

M3 Chris, they are a great car and well under 6s as standard and just get faster and faster up through the gears. They pull as well at 140 as the GTi pulls below 100!

 

[stevyg]

A 300zx can be bought for less than £2k or an early scooby sti can be bought for around the £3k mark or an evo 2, again around £3-£4k

 

[chrisdromore]

300zx wud be terrible on the juice, how bad wud the m3 be ?

i presume we are talkin pre evo m3 here

 

[pablo]

i was getting 21-25mpg average on my M3. it took some scalding too!
