Took my friends g-tech with us to test g's in my truck. He was in the truck with me and we got a high of .60 g's. We did like 5 runs with it, most were .56-.60. Dont really know if this is that great or not?

ehhhh...not really... i went to a competition and they tested skidpad of 10 street cars (eclipse, supra, 350Z to name a few) and they all pulled 1.0G and up.

I have had my truck on a skid pad at an auto cross event. I pulled .74 in one direction and .78 the other. But I was by myself

 

[black96sdime]

LOL, I'll probably get flamed, but oh well. I used to have a Beretta that I had done some work on and it pulled around a G. Berettas are actually good autocross cars.

 

[jmwxtreme43]

Yeah, i didn't think it was great, not too sure how accurate this thing is either cause it gave me some wacky 1/4 times before, i'm sure its within a range though

I tested mine against the dragstrip timers and it read .25 sec slower and 3 mph faster than time slips but the error was consistent. Never tried lateral G's but I get .6g's accel in lower gears (1-2 shift)

 

[dansellbuddy]

now i've heard claims before that with the zq8 you can get pretty close to .9? is this just bs that people said without knowing?, my truck handles pretty damn good i thought, idk.

 

[jmwxtreme43]

this is a straight line...i was testing accel g's

 

[ZR1 S10]

I dunno .9 is pretty good. What kind of tires come on the zq8s?

 

[MINTSICK]

I believe zq8 suspended trucks are supposed to be able to pull .82g's which is really good for a truck. I think most stock camaro's (4th gens) pull around .80g's on the skidpad.

Straight line acceration g's are something different, I have never seen any real test numbers for acceleration g's though. Zq8's come with goodyear 235/55/16's.

i heard .86 G from ZQ8...it does hug the road pretty good...ive taken some high speed stuff fairly well before i hit the limit

I know it's over .80 so it could very well be .86. It does handle very well, it has impressed me many times taking offramps at over 50mph

in my basically stock 4.3 TBI blazer (4 door) The higest ive ever gotton on my G-tech was around .24 Gs

 

[97S10SS]

.24 thats way off even for a 4x4.

.24 thats way off even for a 4x4.

Trust me...I know...my blazer is a slow POS. a 4 door and a TBI motor just dont go well together. But as soon as a I have enough money out comes the 4.3 and in goes a 5.7

But still, mabye I need to go check those numbers again...it has been a couple of months since I last tested out the g's, I might be off.

 

[jmwxtreme43]

It might be about right, remember, this is a straight line, not the skid pad, one way, the other way, cornering shit....

 

[CBZED101]

Yeah, I tested my Gs going in a straight line right out side my house.
