If I recall, the 3000Gt is a tank, coming in at @3800lbs. At 220hp, they're not going anywhere fast.
hahaa what a fcking idiot look at this kid so ignorant a base model or an sl its nowhere near 3800lbs.. u r a real noob and its 222hp for 1993 models and they weight. 3373 lbs u noob.

He says, stock, with only fart cans he can beat me. Keep in mind mine's an auto. What do you all think? Has anyone gone up against a 3000 before?
and urs its auto .. if u win its not gonna by much but if he a good driver ur gone.. i have a 93 model base wich is 3219 lbs and i have beaten plenty of 01 gts just to warn you..
Atleast the OP knows how to spell and use basic grammar.

+1. Ive raced a vr-4 off bottle with basic bolt ons and beat him by about a car. It was a drivers race, and i came out on top.

This was before my spray was even in my car so the guy couldnt give me the "you squeezed me" excuse.

They arent "slow", but if they are stock a mildly modded GT will take them. (the vr-4's that is)

The base 3000gts are slow, my gf's G6 rapes them.

Base 3/S's are SOHC V6s that put out about 160hp. The 1st gen VR4 puts out 300hp to the flywheel and have a 5 speed transmission, 2nd gen (94-98) have a bit more boost and put out 320hp and have a 6 speed. Weight is fairly high, but then again, they (VR4s)are a luxury GT cruiser, not a street/track car. I much prefer them to drive than most mustangs. With a couple of BPUs (downpipe, gut precats, boost controller and gauge, BOV, CAI, they can get up to 320AWHP pretty easily

No 3000GT had an SOHC. Only the base Dodge Stealth.

My dad had a VR4 back in 1991, and that car was amazingly fast. As mentioned it was only a 5spd (6spd must have come later). My dad never lost a race in that thing. We would race Porsche's, Trans Ams, Mustangs, Camaros, Vettes....you name it and he raced it and won. Those cars are sick fast! They did 0-60 in 5 seconds flat and the 1/4 in a low 13.

The SL is a joke......I annihilated one with my modded Focus ZX3 years back.

Really because I am pretty sure the VR4 was only a high 13 second car stock.
