1/4 mile times
Where can I found out 1/4 mile times of various vechicles. What is the quarter mile of a V8 2004 4runner vs like a Inf FX35 or a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

Yeah, I second that...I have seen countless articles and numbers showing the V-8 Runner running anywhere from 15.3 -15.8 in the quarter. As far as 0-60 I've seen 7.2-7.8...??? That's the best I can do. Good luck.

I posted this on another thread...don't know how 'officially' fast it is, but fast enough for me and my Runner.
Here! Here! Yes, my dual Borla cat-back is the best mod I have done also. I couldn't image the vehicle without it!
A blue 350Z ricer pulled up to me at the stoplight. He wanted to race. You know the scenario, two busy lanes merging into one lane. I started out like I was normally leaving the light (slow, steady) and then I punched it! Wa-Baaaaaah. the Runner literally dipped backwards when the torque hit the rear wheels. I won the race up to 60 then the torque band and gearing petered out and that blue Z had to slide in front of me at the lane merge driving through the shoulder gravel.
His nice shiny Z got 'dusted' by a 4710 lb. pig with 4WD!
Ah, the feeling! :pig:

That Z car would have beaten you by a full second in the 1/4 but jumping his ˟˟˟˟ til 60mph is pretty good.

Yeah, he would have taken me from a stop, but it was fun while it lasted.

Ricer to me is anything put on the car that hampers performance or is just in bad taste.

sac, so those with dual exhaust's on here are ricers? if you gain any performance from a mod, i dont think it's ricer...exhaust is necessary in almost any car for better performance...

You can put tooooo big of an exhaust on a car and that usually happens with the youngsters putting 3 inch pipes on their NA 4bangers. I've seen dyno runs that showed an average of a 5hp loss because it's too big and really hurts torque also.
Turbo cars are the ones that really benefit from bigger exhausts or even no exhaust.
