Placid Report post Posted September 16, 2011 I was already spotted! Do Diablos still turn heads over there? Even in a subtle color like this? I know it would here, but exotics are way more common where you live... Where do you notice the speed difference the most....low rpm, mid, high? Down low I wager is where the biggest difference is. The top end didn't seem to be a slouch IMHO. If it's anything like mine, it only pulls hard at the very end of the rpm range. Mine kicks hard at around 6k.

Allan-Herbie Report post Posted September 17, 2011 The last two 98 SV's that I had were embarrassingly slow. If setup right, they can run pretty good. My old Sv ran very well. Much quicker than what this car runs at.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abolfaz Report post Posted September 17, 2011 Albofaz, didn't you own a '98 SV with the color combo just like this? Nope, I had red/black and black/black. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_chaos Report post Posted September 18, 2011 What is that metal sheeting in the background? Looks like a gate. Oh and the car looks great, wouldn't TTing not work well with the clunky box though? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and the car looks great, wouldn't TTing not work well with the clunky box though? TTing it will compensate for the clunky gearbox.. also the box isn't necessarily clunky..its just slowww especially the 1 to 2 shift.. Kurt managed 0 to 60 in his 6.0 @ 2.8 sec.. with a 1/4 mile of 10.5@136... that's fast enough for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
