View Full Version : Any dyno results in Japan?? Fab 8 08-01-2003, 12:09 AM Just wondering if any of you guys in Japan have come across any dyno results that were done locally for the RX-8? What were the results like? Hopefully much better than the ones obtained from those few cars dynoed in the States! Thanks in advance! UG_8 08-01-2003, 02:00 AM Hehheeh ... Fab 8 getting worried ah? :D Fab 8 08-01-2003, 02:05 AM Just a little bit... But if the car can do 5.9 secs, not too worried abt performance. Only bragging rights :D pelucidor 08-01-2003, 09:04 AM Only the pre-production cars did 5.9 secs. Nobody has instrumented figures for the production cars yet. One guy tried an 8000rpm launch measured with a G-tech and got 6.6. Digisan 08-01-2003, 04:27 PM 6.6s is not so hot. Where are my ponies? mac 08-01-2003, 09:43 PM Hercules claims around 6 secs for 0-60 (however he was using a manual chrono ie watch) pelucidor 08-02-2003, 02:36 AM Originally posted by pelucidor Only the pre-production cars did 5.9 secs.

More info - the car was not broken in (500 miles) and had two people in it, so not too shabby. He got the same results with a 4000rpm launch as well (had DSC off at all times).
