6th gen gt vs 1999 v6 mustang - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #42213 49 posts Started by Badkarma
I have a gt and i always thought that a mustang v6 would take me but i guess not ill just have to go out and race one this weekend since i got wires, header, intake, and straight exhaust
1999 Ford Mustang Convertible V6 8.6 16.50

1994 Toyota Celica GT Coupe 8.5 16.40


keep in mind, the first stat is for the convertible model, so the coupe could easily do 0-60 .2 sec faster or so.

also, keep in mind, these results are subjective. Results may differ from other sites.

from these stats, it seems to be a toss up. However, the st statistically should not win. So, if you're an st and your winning, it's because the mustang is either an auto or a terrible driver. I think it would be hard for me to **** up a race with an st if I'm in a 99-04 stang. even if it's a v6.

and Migga, turn off the caps, you know that's ****ing annoying.

i got a buddy of mine his whole family drives stangs. all with cobra r rims all nice as hell. hes had a 90, 94, and now a 98 vert. dad 95 vert, mom 01. the 94 coupe was by far the fastest till the motor blew at 130k. i think there great cars you just cant beat on them like you can a toy.
well, consumerguide.com says that 1994-2004 mustang V6's had 145-190 hp... it doesn't say which ones had 145 and which had 190, but if I were to guess, I'd say that they had 145 before they were given a bit of a facelift (2000?) and 190 after. and the car weighs like 600 punds more (even more for a convertible)

So I think it's fair to say a GT could beat a pre-facelift mustang V6 fairly easily. as for ST... maybe not...

yes, I never ruled it out. especially if the celi was manual and the stang was auto.

The only reason i'd ever buy a V8 stang is : the noise it makes. It purrs, you don't find that on most cars, at all. my buddies camaro sounds raspy & loud, but every decent modified GT or Cobra mustang i've heard sounded great.

It's a shame the majority of the owners drive with their balls instead of their brains.
auto celi gt < stick v6 stang.

but that was just 0-60 i duno what would have happened if we went faster

Is this good enuff 4 ya? :D

Teh Celica sleeps for Winter '06. Suspension overhaul begins........
this is one of the stupidest threads of all time. I wish there was a 0-60 stat website that ruled out every single variable in a drag race and could adequately state whether or not a certain car could out run another. We do this all the time. We never come to a solid conclusion and we never benefit from the conversation unless the two cars in question are obviously out matched (f1 vs celica gt). In which case it's a pointless discussion anyway.

my celica could beat an F1... tongue.gif

that's kinda like how my friend tried to race a ferrari with his 1980's chevy silverado... yeah... from what he says, the ferrari kinda let him get ahead, then a couple seconds later they flew past him at somewhere around 120... wink.gif

What's pointless is not factoring in the fact that some people don't know how to drive their car and others do. That can have a big factor on the outcome. BTW - Raced a modded '98 Mustang GT Auto with brand new engine purring like mad just to prove the point and spanked his monkey a$$. He's willing to come on here and back me up (friend of mine) as well as 2 members from MR2oc where there to witness and can back me up too.
Learn how to drive your Celica people. Intelligently modded our cars are not that slow. At the track with their $hitty FF traction - now that's another story.
So you need proof - I got it.
i can blow by a lamboghini lol... when it's parked lol.. come on guys, let this thread die already. smile.gif

Turbo install made possible thanks toTeamJ.D.M.officially 5SFTE junior member~*MuH NeW RiDe*~
True enough - this retarded. I know what I can beat.
just out-ran a zo6, driven by a kid with down syndrome, he's willing to admit defeat on the boards.

you want proof... I got it.
