Is it as fast as i think

what is the standard 0-60 time for a mkII 1.4sr ?

i was using one of those professional timer things and i got timed at modified nationals too, ive done about 10 - 15 runs now and the time always comes out around the 7.5 - 8.5 mark is this right ?

i recently brought the car about 3 months ago and from what i know it hasnt had any engine work carried out, the engine itself looks standard apart from a k&n filter, it also has a janspeed straight through exhaust system

i would say thats right as a mate of mine managed just under 7sec in a standard SRi with a decat and mongoose system.

My MK2 SR does it bout 6.2 in the dry, but it does only weight 820kg.

Quoted time for a 1.4 carb is around 10 seconds, but manufacturers figures can be a bit conservative sometimes. Although the 1.6 is quoted around 9 seconds.

haha, My 181bhp/185lb's/ft 1.6 Turbo managed around 6.3 average 0-60! Best time was 6 secs dead so I really can't see how a 6.2 from a Nova with less that 100bhp is possible??? My GTE was just over 9secs in standard trim.

Oh... and I had a quaiffe Diff in it also!

Bet you wish you'd saved your money now, not putting the LET back in my car now, after a 1.4 SR lump.

LOL @ this.
My old 1600 t40 did it in about 7.0s. So your saying a 1.4 sr is quicker.

B@llocks, ive got an in car video of an SRi doin 0-60 in 7sec's! and my SR literally only has two sparco's and a steering wheel, a 4-branch + ashley system, pierburg 2E3 + K&N (atm), some form of piper cam (ex-old owner fitted), GSi CR g/box and 820kg kerb weight!

Back seats and all useless interior trim fooked off on eBay!
