Finally got a chance to take some videos of the 5 speed Q..

for reference if you want to have any idea on how fast im going, use this chart



The very top row lists the gear ratios (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th), compare it to the RPM at any given time and on the right will give you the MPH..

Anyway, 0-60 is in about 5.75 seconds based on the video, and thats being pretty conservative. I'd say its 6.0 seconds all day on a slow shift... Ill get a couple more later launching the car properly, but you can see how it pulls..

All videos were shot with the windows closed, AC off.

0-60http://www.youtube.com/watch?v..._page

50-90, plus shifting

Work in a plant and you'll be jorting it up too!!!

Yeah 4th gear synchro is definitely not as good as the others, but it doesnt do it all the time and its not that bad..

Im going to be switching to redline MT90 which apparently does wonders for the Z32 trans synchros.

you're doing more damage to your VH45 by not driving it hard and babying it around... I should have hit you up when I went to Carlisle...
