just put a g60 in a mk1 and see it fly 900kg 200lbs torque addios power to weight all the way

doof, 0-60 times on a G60 are seriously hampered by a crap 2nd gear meaning you need 3rd to hit 60... I got my gearbox rebuilt using a VR6 1st and 2nd gear so that 2nd is longer (hits about 64 now) so managed a measured 7.02 seconds 0-60 in the wet at Bruntingthorpe yesterday... I could probably get it a bit quicker in the dry now that I know how my car handles and reacts a little better now... 8)

 

A normal G60 box would have added on 1 or 2 seconds to that time... :|

well actually henny, i have a standard gear box on my g60 and in the wet ,on the same day, i got almost the same times as you, in fact my 1/4 was better, ..

Just like to point out that NO rolling road figures are accurate in any respect when quoting @ the flywheel, plain and simple. If you want to really know what your engines putting out then put it on an engine dynamometer not a chassis one. Also air temperature/conditions can make a considerable difference.

hmmmm, 33bhp lost in the tyres..... thats 24kW...... i think thats more than enough energy to melt your tyres...

Seriously though... as a rolling road owner i would say only compare power at the wheels... either that or get it on an engine dyno!

My mate's just built a Mk1 2.0 G60 Golf - uses a forged EIP Tuning crank, Ross Pistons, Eurospec flowed head, Schrick cam, Rallye i/c, brand new (0 miles) G-Lader taken out to R1 spec, samco hoses, now with toothed belt pulley kit, uses a 16v box with Quaiffe diff. Engine built by Stealth and awaiting Geoff Everett? from AMD to map it as it's still being run in but owner is hoping for 250bhp+ and similar torque at least?..........(fingers crossed)..... 8)

 

You beat me to it VALVER...

 

Id just like to add that this mk1 made 235bhp at the fly with a STANDARD chip and pulley!! Will be looking for way more than 250bhp.......

agreed. had the rallye on the rollers and transmission losses were 48.5bhp through all four wheels. :lol: not as bad a i thought was running 195/50/15" on the day though...
