Another 1ggze vs 1ggte thread...trying to compare to commodores+falcons! Wed, 01 June 2005 11:30 Go to next message
Well, before i do my coversion, just getting a lil bit anxious to know what kind of output and pull ill be looking at from the 1ggze in my ra40. I will be running wolf3d v4 and a few other mods to begin with, how *approx* would you guys rekon it would go against:

  • VK commo
  • VL Turbo
  • ecotec v6 commo
  • v8 commodores+falcons **Various*


Just looking for an idea, because ive ridden in most, and wanna try to compare that pulling feeling to what ill recieve from the 1ggze.
Im sure you guys that own gze celicas would like to ping in on this?

"pulling feeling" isn't the easiest thing to measure...

Look up quarter mile times

That's probably your answer then Sad

Not trying to be a smart ars, but I've searched for this sort of information in the past too. When I did my first conversion on the RA28 I was going to go for the GZE but couldn't find the information, let alone the engine. Everyone had SC14 chargers lying around though Wink

Cheers,
Kirk

It should annihilate most versions of the first 3. It should have no trouble with stock versions of the older V8 Falcons and Commodores, but the newer ones with more power will probably give you a run for your money.

Does it matter? They're almost all roughly the same weight/dimensions/chassis.

Mitch is interjecting....

The RA28 is just a Mustang copy (a damn good one mind you, but still a copy).....

The TA22 and RA23 are the only true original Celica's....
