I'm always interested in diesel performance, modifications and the results of it.
There are several apps available for phones that can record your 1/4 mile, 0-60/0-100km/h ect times using the GPS and accelerometer. I've found these quite accurate and repeatable, though sometimes you get an outlier. For most of us I imagine doing this on public roads wont even result in broken speed limits. Of course, some of you have actual drag strips at your disposal.
Personally, I use Car Performance Free for Android. Perhaps if the Apple users find an appropriate app they could link it?

Naturally you should make a pass in one direction, then the other and average them. I'm lucky enough to have found a nice flat piece of road that's repeatable in both directions. Flat, straight empty sections of road may be hard to come by for some of you but launching from the breakdown lane on a freeway might do it.
Post up your results with a description of your car, including engine, gearbox and other relevant things. I'll try and keep this first post updated with the results. I'd also be interested to see the times of FJ and FZJ 'cruisers. There's no such thing as too slow, I'm just keen to see how your vehicles perform!
