Seriously, we know our 80’s are slow so lets compare to see who’s got the fastest or slowest 80 out there.
Rules: State your vehicle’s year, engine, tire size, gears, and mods. Also perform this test on flat ground, record the ambient temperature and elevation to help in comparing other member’s trucks. Make note of whether or not the power shift button was used, if applicable. You should also try to perform this run in opposite directions to help compensate for elevation changes and wind. Speed needs to be calculated by a gps if your truck is running on non-stock sized tires/gears unless your odometer is accurate. With gas prices around $2.00 a gallon, this is a great time to test your truck.
Remember, always be safe and do not break any speed limits.
Here’s our tests results tonight:
92 FJ80 stock engine (3FE) with 33 x 10.5’s, stock gears, sliders, flat roof rack, Ironman bumper and 2 ½” lift, 12k pound winch, new catalytic converter, new louder (less restrictive?) muffler.
22 seconds on way slightly down hill
26 seconds opposite way slightly up hill
24 seconds Average.
I will be repeating this test after I break in the new 4.88 gears that are being installed this week.
94 FZJ80 stock engine (1FZ-FE) with 285 x 75’s, stock everything except a 2 ½” ironman lift.
15 seconds one way slightly down hill
17 seconds one way slightly up hill
16 seconds average.
For another comparison we tested our 99 LX 470 which is bone stock with 285 x 75’s
Roughly 12 seconds for both runs.
Top 5 Quickest for each motor will be updated accordingly. *engine performance mods present

I am really interested in learning the improvement when your gear change from 4.10 to 4:88s with 33" tires once you have the 0-60 time. I am debating the same gear swap with 33" tires. Also, once you re-gear could you note the RPM at 60 and let me know. Thanks.
My Cruiser is slow as hell, I have a 200 series and a 14' tundra for towing duty. I'll post up a 0-60 run for my tundra and 93' FZJ80 here soon. I bet my 93 will take at least twice as long as my tundra, worse for the 200. My 200 feels faster than my tundra.
I know it can go faster, my 200 has touched 130mph
I love this idea, I'm gonna go start a similar thread on Priuschat right now

LOL!
The prius feels faster if you ask me. Although I have been thinking about a faster DD but the Prius' quiet ride and reliability will be really hard to beat. Most of the taxies here in LA are switching from crown Vic to prius and I heard a lot of them are well over 300k by now.
Just timed my LX at sea level and 13.5 ish is the best I can get out of the old girl.......at sea level.
Prius is faster, big reason I turbo'd my truck was coming out of Albuquerque long Hill I couldn't hold my speed and was passed by a Prius. Prius will go 0-60 in 9.7-10.5 depending on model. Lol
