13b

Hey guys,
I think I'm going to sell my 12a 1st gen and buying one with a 13b in it (will have to have been modded as I'm in oz, no gsl-se!).

I was wondering what sort of 0-100 kph and 1/4 mile time would you expect from a 1st gen with a 13b with a full exaust system and a street port?

Thanks guys!

Browney

depends on a lot of other factors. why not swap your 12a out instead of buying a full new car?

besides that some (not all ) 2nd gen had mad problems with wiring and sub-stanard solder that caused even more problems. Although this is only true with some of the earlier 2nd gens i still wouldn't buy a 2nd gen for that reason.

i think hes saying an already modded 13b 1st gen. he will have to be one modded as they never got the se.

also, i agree with the 13b, but seriously, do it yourself.. then you can have the pride in it. and when/if something goes wrong, you have a good idea where the problem is

Does anyone know the answer to my question though?

"I was wondering what sort of 0-100 kph and 1/4 mile time would you expect from a 1st gen with a 13b with a full exaust system and a street port?"

Maybe around 14 seconds @100 MPH.. given you have everything else set up properly: correct and tuned carb, a grippy clutch, lightened vehicle AND traction! Just an estimate.
