They use a stall technique that holds the car in 2nd, then drops back to 1st when it launches. Beat me too it Cam! That is one fast Phoon! |

Ended up getting a good price for the TE and only lost $9500 over the 3yrs. I heard that a worker at Titan's mate grab her straight away, I just hope they look after her as much as we did. I cryed when we drove away and left her there - so true!!!  awww should have traded in the XT

Nothing's quick to you is it fool. Mate, who are you to call me fool? How is a low 14 high 13 QUICK for a near new car with a turbo 4 litre six? yes they have potential, and they are awesome looking cars, but there are quicker cars out there. And apologies, surely it's a common misconception to assume the wrong gender, and apologies for not being able to dicern your t2 from a t1, small photo and i only glanced at it lol, i mean, 200kw, 220kw not a MASSIVE power difference. |

Dude you have no idea do you. those times are bloody quick.
I would like your EL to do a 12.9 ahahahah. Those things hammer like nothing else. They will see the wrong side of 200kph in no time what so ever. Exhaust, intake and a decent tune they are pumping out 350-450kw. |

Well there is not to many standard new cars that will do those sort of times unless you have spent loads of money on them, and then yes you would expect quick 1/4 miles. A new commodore 6 litre 307kw will only do a 13.3. Tell me a faster stock standard car that you know of??????
I know that our mates T3 347 windsor auto with exhaust and airfilter run's 13.7 not bad I would think!! Least now I don't have to spend heaps of money to get maximum power and run reasonable times.

with good driving you should be able to see a 13.5 with the 6 speed manual.

Surely a Typhoon should better a flat 14 though.. I would be expecting at least a mid 13, even from a manual. The transmission doesn't cripple them that much does it?

I personally know that it is a lot quicker than our previous cars. Yes we once owned V8 EL which was no comparison to our next trade up the TE50 to now the typhoon. But let me assure you I know all to well that the jap cars are a quicker car if your into that but I'm not looking for a 11 or 12 sec car thats what our old XT in the shed is for!!!!!
