race timeall power 05-20-2009, 12:56 PM ok boys heres something to think about..... 99gtp all stock a buddy of mine has a 93 trans am and he wants to race.. as far as i know his car is all stock to and he,s pushin 275hp im pushin 260hp.... WHAT DO YOU THINK MY CHANCES ARE????????:smokin::smokin::smokin::iceslolan:ices lolan:iceslolan TDWPgtp 05-20-2009, 07:43 PM im pretty sure stock GTPs only make 240, according to the factory. but anyway i think it would all depend on each of your launches, cuz according to 0-60 and quarter mile times, you would both be REALLLLY close, but the trans am would win. of course it depends on a billion variables. either way it should be a fun race :iceslolan tblake 05-20-2009, 08:28 PM 93 is getting up there. What motor is in the trans am? 350 or 305, I forget now. I thought my friend had a 92 with a 305 and it was a dog. Not to mention the 93 trans am motor is going to be old and tired (loss compression over the years) compared to the GTP. I dont know..... Throw a smaller pulley on and a PCM quick. Then you'll see. With my mods I took a 4th gen firebird (pretty sure it had the V8). Man was that guy ticked. all power 05-21-2009, 03:42 PM he has a LT1 motor 5.7 with 102.000 miles on her... i got 84000 on mine.......and i thought the all stock GTPs had 260hp/gt/se had 200hp? i could be wrong.... my other ? is should i have the T.C.S off/on? richtazz 05-21-2009, 05:12 PM Driver's being equal, you'll lose. The 93 Firebird has the LT-1 engine, and GM purposefully advertised the HP lower than actual for insurance purposes. If your car was modded, you'd stand a better chance, but it'll take a perfect launch on your part, and a bobble on his for you to win. tblake 05-21-2009, 07:37 PM All power, I think your getting the 260 figure from an 04+ 3800SC GTP. The Series 2 L67 is rated at 240 stock. grandprixgtx00 05-21-2009, 08:43 PM All power, I think your getting the 260 figure from an 04+ 3800SC GTP. The Series 2 L67 is rated at 240 stock. or maybe a GTX? the GTX's are 260 off the lot also... tblake 05-21-2009, 09:17 PM 260 for the GTX? Thats it? really? Hmmmm. rev2red 05-21-2009, 10:07 PM 04 GTP have 265 and GT has 200 grandprixgtx00 05-21-2009, 10:57 PM 260 for the GTX? Thats it? really? Hmmmm. somewhere around there. the ram air supposedly adds 10 HP, and the SLP exhaust system is supposed to add 5 HP, so somewhere in the 260 range. maybe your thinking of the 300 GPX? that was the concept of the GTX, and had a supercharged 3800 series II that was 300 HP. all power 05-22-2009, 12:44 PM so i dont stand a chance? wood i have to do alot to my motor to get 300hp? VR43000GT 05-22-2009, 02:16 PM Assuming he is stock and it is still in somewhat decient condition and that he can drive, the T/A should be able to pull a lower 14 second 1/4 which is faster than the GTP. If he has a manual transmission and simiply can't drive very well you may have a chance at him. However, taking out the variable of drivers, the T/A is the faster car. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
