FishWick 21 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 3rd gear will pull 99mph at 7000rpm with a 17" tyre. 94 mph on a 15" tyre and 95 on a 16" tyre.The VR doesn't have a 7K rev limit though, so you're probably hitting 93 ish.The Lamborghini Diablo does that in 1st!

Radostormvr6 2 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 wot ratios are in the stealth/gemini 6speeder?does the 12psi set up pull harder and stronger radostormvr6?getting temted myself.I was making 280 now 329bhp, it feels quicker but would'nt say any pulls any harder. The torque was 260lbft and hasonly gone up to 278lbft. but i was running a Schrick and now a short runner. The schrick gave a bit of a kick at 4k now its just smooth rite to 7k rpm Link to post Share on other sites
