My brother is getting a 1993 3000GT and I was wondering how fast he car is. So I looked it up and his is the non Twin Turbo so he has 222hp and weighs 3200 lbs.

I decided to make a list of common cars on this board that have had the question raised if you can beat them... Here are the stats
THESE ARE STOCK NUMBERS

Base and SL Misubishi 3000GT, 222hp 3200lbs
Turbo 300GT, 300hp 3200lbs

I will add more cars as requested, this is tech b/c we are stating facts not opinions and should be left alone b/c it may help aleivate(spelling) the problem of this question comming up so often.

They're a little more then 3200lbs. Try around 3750lbs.

222hp 3kgts are capable of mid to high 15s stock.

 

huh?!, 3750, All of the places I saw said 3200.

They can't be that light, cause i've beaten one on the highway pretty bad, and that's with my LO3. We raced a few times, about 65-115 mph, and i beat him every single time. He had rice stickers all over his car too (which probably gave him an additional 100 hp), and a dissapointed girlfriend sitting next to him. hehe.

Does anyone know what a 85 TA weighs in at?

 

well my 87 weighed in at 3600 lbs with me in it. so 3400 without me. i would think yours would be around that. mine also has t-tops, airconditioning, and power everything.

Boats. Touring Car's, not sports cars.

 

the non turbo is also fwd not awd so they really suck.
