What version u got? Is it standard?
Not bad going in the wet with diff up.
Not timed my Version 5. All i know is 'on my signal unleash hell'!
I have too much torque to put down on the tarmac....at guess must be near 4 secs if not sub 4 secs in the dry.
Had chip re-mapped so a helluva lot more responsive.

dream on guys. do you really have that much faith in a stopwatch and your speedos?
unless a car was heavily modded, with uprated internals etc, it would not manage a sub 4 sec. if you really want to get sub 4s, try driving off a cliff, that should do it

Standard trim 0-60 and 30-70 of 5.5 seconds (+/- 0.3) must be enough for everyone, right !?
Interesting that no-one has tested the new STi UK faster to 60 than the std 99MY turbo

coolmeister I think you need to read catflap's reply again. The clue to the vehicle is in the reply .
Sub 5 seconds are pretty much standard on classic standard STIs and early to mid 5 on standard UKs. P1 was advertise as 4.66. Didnt Stef do a 4.5 in a tweaked MY98 UK in cossie V scooby revs article using proper timing gear.
Also better to do it in damp conditions as the wheels psin and teh turbo spools up quick and the damp air is better . Having said that a new transmission is expensive so not advisable unless you have a goiod bank balance .

4.5sec in my '92 legacy (with shafted 1st & 2nd syncros, and less go faster bit than present ) it's all down to perfect clutch control

Mine was timed at santa pod at 4.5 to 60 and 11.5 to 100 when it was running 320 bhp. Now on around 340 it should be knocking on the door of the high 3's and sub in the 10's to the ton.

4.00s in the damp at the RS owners club day last year. 2nd fastest of allcomers, fastest was 3.98s by an RS200 GroupB AWD 500BHP car. From that a knew what 60MPH really was and did 3.2 seconds on a grippy dry surface. This was in my 330BHP Westie.
No idea what the STi is, dont intend to find out either.

Rather than 0-60, how about 30-70 as thats much more an indication of real world performance.
I was surprised the other day to do 3 runs of 30-70 (in second) in 3.9 secs !! thought that was rather good for an STi4 with full scoobysport exhaust.
I would imagine the time lost (compared to the standard time of 4.8)is accountable mainly by the downpipe which reduces lag.
I have done quite a bit of stopwatch testing recently & generally I find that I am half a second quicker with the Scoobysport exhaust fitted than I was before.

Driven managed 3.8 secs on the best of five occasions in the same day in anders 22B using datron timing gear. Then they destryed his clutch and bought him a new one.
But then the book figure for the UK 22B is 5.0 secs up to 60, dont think the gearing accounts for that much!
Craig, why arent you bragging?
0-60 in 3.7 secs on proper runs using proper timing gear, and 9.5 was it to 100!

OK Adam,
I'll start bragging
That timing gear (that many people doubted after my times) just happens to be the same that EVO and Car run for their performance measuring too........
70mph in an STI 4 in 2nd gear? I'd get your speedo checked
EVORSX - is that Simon you're talking about? If so it was a shame he sold it - was v v quick.

0-60 in my H reg 16 valve integrale in 5.63 seconds with proper timing gear at RAF alconbury. suffered from alot of clutch slip and had to replace the clutch soon after Got AP paddle and chip to 1.5 Bar now with engine being overbored and a group A head gasket Should be into the 4's then
By the way doing it with a stop watch get out there with REAL timing gear
