And being quite surprised at some of the bhp per tonne figures.

Thought we'd start a leaderboard thread for just scoobys, should be interesting, given the list above.

Please List Mods and estimated weight if you dont know exactly.

I think this layout would be ok.

Let me Know what you think

:luxhello:

Good idea! Let me get on the rollers!

aye up rob, heard your car goes well now its all mapped up :D you got a rough figure to work off?

Who gives a ****!!! :lol1:

Eggy, Your car weighs 1.4kg?

What is bhp per ton on a 6.0 vxr8?

Its all about the torque, I have more power to weight than that skyline R35 GTR @ 271 per tonne but could i keep up with it, Could i fook :D

Now then eggy! Excellent stuff! :thumb: I am sat in work rocking in my chair till 5.30pm when I set off to pick it up! Could be anything between 400-450, would like to think the higher end of the scale! Shame its raining as I quite liked it in one piece!

I will report back to you when I have battered Wakefield Road for a while! :norty:

p.s. 224 bhp/ton on a vxr8

The newer R35 (2011 onward) have quite a bit more power and are nearer to 315bhp per ton along with over 450lb ft

I know diplomacy isn't your strong point but if you've got nowt nice to say then say nowt.

I`d have either Matty, I`m not fussy:lol1:

:lol1: yep, fair point :D

Good idea - how about a torque per tonne leaderboard as well? That could be interesting, as said above sometimes the bhp per tonne doesn't show the whole picture :)

I do wonder why we use smilies, when people tend to blatantly ignore them and the context they can help to provide. ;)

Apologies in that case. :)
However you have to agree that weigt reduction is important in gaining a performance advantage. That said the newer machinery seem to have the transmission advantange! We need a cheap sequential clutchless gearshift system for Imprezas.:D

Andy Carr has guestimated about 420bhp on mine, curb weight is 1249 (lost a kilo in aircon removal ;) )

Type-rob Engine 2.0 - Turbo MD312t -BHP per ton 420 / 1249 = 336.26 BHP per ton

Ten more than an F430 then :D

Damn! Curb weight is 1239 , making it 338.9 ! :facepalm:

How do you work the results out? Is there a site you can calculate up?

I'm half tempted to ask my local tip if I cna jump on the scales for a print out of the weight too.


Steve

your hp / weight x 1000 = power to weight.


rob lost a kilo what did you take off , the rad????

guestimate of mine 380/ 1150 = 330.

Air con pal, might strip the thing out after this conversation!

MattyB - 2.0 - TD0520G - 410 / 1200 = 341bhp per ton.

CREWJ: | Engine: 2.0 | Turbo: N/A | BHP Per Ton: 123bhp / 1.130kg = 108.8 BHP Per Ton

Get in!

482bhp /1270 =

how did you get the weight down on your bugeye btw? wanna lose some on mine

Scooby-kid: | Engine: 1640 | N/A | BHP Per Ton: 120bhp / 750kg = 160 BHP Per Ton

1961 Ford Anglia running a x/flow engine, ported head, Weber carb, 2" stainless 4into1 manifold and 2" straight through stainless system, electronic ignition.
