pbryant_knight Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hi All, I had a proper blast of my Supra yesterday for the first time. Got to a set of lights on the A19 and a Chav pulls up next to me in a tricked out saxo. I decided "What the hell" and let rip, obviously leaving him in my dust. I've been using a Digital Speedo on my phone as the original one is in KM. This also records Distance Travelled, Speed, GPS Signal Strength Direction and your top 0-60 time. When i stopped the car i looked at the reading and it reakons i did 0-60 in 5.8 seconds. Now the throttle response in this car is amazing, better than my last Supra and any other car i've had. Its just an N/A Auto so does this sound right for a 0-60 time? I didn't expect it to be this quick? Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbuddy Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 probably be something around the 6sec mark my n/a manual was quick, Im sure it must of been cammed and had other trick bits though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-duper Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 That seems way to fast if I'm honest. At Trax 2011 I watched two NA autos run on the 0-60 timer. The first one belonging to Josh42 on here ran around 8s flat and the other belonging to the G6 supra guy ran an 8s something as well.

Supra-duper Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 8 seconds for 0 to 60 : / Something not right there They were definitely the times mate, on the same equipment my bpu auto ran 4.92s and another member on here (who I think is running a small single) ran a 3.9 or similar in his with some beefy tyres on the rear (think they were slicks or drag radials) and was one of the fastest RWD of the day.

I had an Astra VXR which does 0 to 60 in 6.2 and got pulled away from by an NA from launch straight through.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you with the time, but 8 seconds!? Even tho it's an NA and we get slated enough on here, it's still a stupidly fast car and out classes many And I know for a fact that 8 seconds is a slow time for 0 to 60 : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can say is on the same day a lot of cars like Focus ST's and similar were also only running similar times to 60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Kong Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Don't forget driver input is just as important! As are temperatures, tires etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aero-M Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 I was side by side with a focus st the other day, it was a 57 reg and we were neck and neck to 70 then backed of so what ever their 0-60 time is matches my na Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stinboy Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 What app is that? Do share Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Yeah what app is that?? 8's is far too slow for the potential of the NA. Regards, Herbert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wewsupra Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Don't forget driver input is just as important! As are temperatures, tires etc.... so true my n/a used to run 7.1 secs 0-60 few years ago and bhp RR was 225.9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardod Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 0-60 for an NA should be in the 6's right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 NA is listed at 6.8/6.9. 6 seconds is way too fast IMO. I used to do around 7 with mine when it was NA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbryant_knight Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 The app is just called Speedometer i believe. It's the same one i've been running in my Ipad in the 300zx for a few years so put it on my phone for the Supra. Must admit, i thought that was too quick for an N/A, which is why i posted on here. But the GPS signal strength was full, meaning it had more than 3 satellites to take the reading off so should be very accurate? I expected around the 7 seconds myself.

Noz Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Get it down the strip, only way to tell for sure. High compression has good launch. Though I've a 10:1 compression with boost and don't get much better lol. Maybe I'm just a rubbish driver. Maybe your just awesome mate.

vertex Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) Personally I think 5.8 is optimistic for a n/a auto supra... but if the conditions are right...? Edited May 6, 2012 by vertex (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
