You have 100,000$. Buy a car and use the remaindr to tune it up. Mine is a Skyline R34 GTR Vspec. 543 hp/7500RPM
71.3 lb ft/4500RPM 1450 kg. I'll post my times tonight. g2g eat. Post settings,horsepower,weight,torque and Times and top speed. You must use the same settings for Top Speed and 0-400m. I'll post tonight. C ya

sounds fun. I'll try some in a little bit :trouble:


*EDIT* Alright, back with some results, I tested out a few of my favorites, and heres what I got.

First i naturally went for the Viper, which left me little mod money, but i did the best I could with what I had, and I ended up with 506HP @ 5100rpm, 73.5 ft.lb @ 4100rpm, a weight of 1423kg for a p/w ratio of 2.812. On sport tires I managed:

0-60: 3.7secs (approx.)
400m: 11.853 @ 121mph
Top speed: 191.8 on the normal transmission

Then I went and bought me an R34 VspecII skyline, bought some crap, and ended up with 457hp @ 7500rpm, 60.2 ft.lb @ 4500rpm, and 1450kg for a p/w of 3.172. On medium slick tires I managed:

0-60: 3.2secs (approx.)
400m: 11.674 @ 116mph
top speed: 178.6 on normal trans, blah.

4wd definently had the advantage here as the 0-60 and 400m times show, but the lower HP ultimately leads to its lack of top speed. Still great for a sprint car tho

Next I hopped in my favorite, the RX7 RZ. Used my funds the best I could, and ended up with 449hp @ 6500rpm, 50.3 ft.lb @ 6000rpm (boooo!!) and a weight of 1181kg for a p/w ratio of 2.630. On medium slick tires I achieved

0-60: 3.8 secs (approx.)
400m: 11.943 @ 122mph meh...
top speed: 200.1 mph on full race trans.

Here the RX7 shows its true potential. top end. especially w/ the adjustibility of the race trans. BUT, as is common for the poor rotary engine, the lack of torque just cant propel the car thru the 400 as fast as the others, even w/ the lighter weight, tho it does its best to try and keep up.

Finally for the fun of it I chose an unlikely candidate, and was quite surprised w/ the results. I picked out a nice 3000gt VR4. After all was said and done I sit at 498hp @ 6000rpm, 71.5 ft.lb @ 4000 rpm, and a weight of 1495kg for a p/w ratio of 3.002. On medium slick tires it managed:

0-60: 3.1 secs (approx.)
400m: 11.588 @ 120mph 👍
top speed: 194.6 mph on normal trans

Very surprising results, but again, 4wd has a distinct advantage here. The twin turbos do a nice job of revving the engine up quickly, yet still give it plenty of top end where you need it. The normal trans is geared pretty well right off the bat. Even when i shifted into 6th gear mid way around the turn it still pulled until i was out of the curve.

So theres my results so far, as for the mods performed to the cars

The viper was fitted w/ semi race suspension; NA stage 1; sport tires; weight stage 1

The skyline has semi race suspension; twin plate clutch; semi race flywheel; Stage 2 turbo; medium slick tires; weight stage 1

The RX7's fitted with semi race suspension; racing muffler; racing chip; twin plate clutch; racing flywheel; racing trans; stage 2 turbo; medium slick tires; weight stage 1

And finally the VR4 has semi race suspension; racing muffler; twin plate clutch; racing flywheel; stage 2 turbo; racing intercooler; medium slick tires; weight stage 2

Thats all for now. I'll test some other ones tomorrow :D
 
Me thinks i may have to try this out....probably going to use the Mustang SVT....its cheap so I should be able to make a fair bit of power;)

I am going to test a new car here in about 20 min brb
 
The acceleration sucked but with a racing Transmission on a 531 hp Griffith 500 I want 211.6 mph!
0-60 was an awful 4.619
400m was around 12.3-12.5 @ about 129mph
more cars in just a min
 
Supra RZ 515 hp
0-60 4.594
400m-12.4@126mph(aprox)
Top Speed 211.9mph

Impreza Sedan WRX STI VI 468 hp
0-60 3.283
400m11.395@125mph
Top Speed 201.9mph
Clearly not a Top speed demon but proved that even with a 50 hp disadvantage it can run with the competition. I still have 3000 dollars left with this car I can't spend..I also noticed that this car came standard with a VCD cntoller from 35% to 50%. cool:p

Viper GTS 638hp
0-60 3.533
400m 11.377@130mph
Top speed 208mph That was at like 4500RPM (normal Trans)
well thats all for tonight I geuss my 1st car is still the best I've got...tommorow I'm gonna try either a Camaro SS,Corvette Z06,MR2 GT-S,Clio Sport V6,or just for top speed a 300ZX Twin Turbo 2 seater..I estimate around 680 hp.:trouble: So c ya tommorow.

In that case, I think you better call your accountant up and go over your finances again, cuz unless i added somthing up wrong here (did it twice just to be sure) w/ the r34 vspec, an oil change, and all the parts you listed, that puts you 880 bucks in the hole
 
ok I bought stage 2 flywheel and stage 2 clutch now. Which lowered 0-60 by .003 and 1/4 by .013 and increased top speed by.1 mph...thx thats cool that cheaper parts made it go faster:lol:
