torque mod
That's what I thought cuz the sedans had slower 0-60s for those years. Can't imagine it was cuz of a different amount of flywheel HP (I know that's what they said, but it wouldn't make sense). If the coupe 6mt had more stout gearing tho, it would make plenty of sense.
Coupe (6spd) 0-60 in 5.5
-car and driver
(Yes, I know these are magazine numbers, I'm just posting their known potential)
Yep... stock G Coupe 6MT is 82 MPH in 6th gear @3K RPM.
since the v35 vq is really closer to 260/260 because if lacking variable exhaust I find the 5.5 very suspect.
Torque Monster...not exactly!
Start with gears, 3.9 is low enough so you won't destroy your engine. Breather mods are then needed to free up that VQ motor, dual cat back exhaust, HFCs then Motordynes 1/2" spacer and cold air intake/z-tube. You've completed all you need to get an Orisis tune! There are other mods like aluminum driveshaft and headers but the gains are minimal...Gary
