Anyone know how quick a VZ crappadore does the quarter in and 0-100.
My GFs dad has one as a company car and it seems like a slow POS. We were just about even with a crappy VT even a little behind and even i though a VZ holden would be a little better than that!!! |

rofls all round there mate.
I think a VZ on a good day would pull about a 16.5- 16.8 stock (auto). I remember a thread yonks ago about a member who went with a mate with a VY ( so sorta close really) which did about a 16.7.
I know the AU will pull close to a 16 next time I go out. still stock. |

| haha yeah that was me in my stock ef vs my mates stock vy. both 6 and both auto. i did a 16.2 (woohoo) and he did a 16.7. surely a zv with the alloytech 190 would have some more punch than the vy but. my conservative guess would be around a low 16 |

| Yeah that wouldnt surprise me. Any ideas on 0-100 time? I would of been so p****d if i paid $40,000 for the plastic mismatching gutless Berlina that we have. It just reminds me of why i hated holdens in the first place. In terms of build quality they are sh#thouse. Poor acceleration. Why would anyone want one? |

| I just looked it up on the net and you are looking at between 8.7 -9.3. 0-100 haha what a slow pos. Most old efs should match that. Hell my NL fairlane might keep up. |

The alloytechs seem to hide it well too, Apparently they have 190kw, they certainly dont feel like it.
Have seen a few 5 speed VN's crack 15.5ish times, but anything after VR were slugs with auto's, even with a reasonable first gear, they cant seem to cut a mid 16. A new rodeo 4 x 4 beat a VY ute (6cyl auto) by almost half a second the other week. Pathetic. |

| Funny thing i cant understand why they are so slow as they have over 300NM of torque and either 175 or 190KW depending on model. I wonder if my tickford ghia with 162kw would beat it? |

svz has 320 Nm @ 2800
EL has 357 Nm @ 3000
bf II has close to 400 Nm @ ??? (?)
but the box ratios help them along heaps? you just dont get that satisfing surge like when the BBM flicks on an i6 or barra |

15.3 the sv6 came in at with the 190kw motor.
yeh they arent fantastic by a long shot, the 190 in the commo's should be standard, which i can see happening in the series 2. |

those figures are a bit strange, my old TJ magna auto (stock as a rock)ran a pb of 15.3 in fairly cool conditions and it left 6spd ba's for dead.
i've read that story before too, those times just seem a little generous. |
