As the title says, what's the 0 to 60 time of a s13? Both SOHC and DOHC if you please :)

probably upper 7's.

the ol T bird from factory is supposed to hit it in a flat 7, it's about a second faster in the quarter so, I'm guessing this...

isn't there a motor trend test or something in the articles section anyway?

s14's are like 7.8 I think, so s13 who knows. Depends on model, options, etc etc. Ask in the 240 General section, or search in there. It might have been asked before.

Here's what a little bit of Google revealed.

High 8's for the KA24E and low to mid 8's for the KA24DE. Not sure how accurate the info is (they have a 240SX SE-R...that extra R seems to make it faster), but they say most of it is from published road tests.

Probably don't need a second on your watch to measure it (snicker). It's likely 7-8 seconds depending on who's driving,road/weather conditions, what kind of shape the car is in, etc.Although fun to drive, Straightline acceleration is one of the car's few weaknesses.

The car has many weaknesses. I hate Nissan North America.

Ok so the cars basic only weakness is the severe underpoweredness. I dont hate Nissan North America, just severely dispise them for giving the 240 a great chassis, etc etc, but screw it over when it comes to performance, speed wise. WTF was their deal?

I was about to say "slightly faster than a stock B15 Sentra SE 2.0, since it has slightly more power and RWD." My car runs about an 8 (I'd like to think that with the intake and B&M SS I break to like a 7.9, but that's wishful thinking).
