Is the 04 GTO that big of a dog to the 05 GTO?

I'm suprised at how close the 04 is to the 05. IMO with equal drivers, less than a 1/2 second in the 1/4.

They are both GTO's and Not Mustangs , neither is a dog.
LS1 vs LS2 ; Pricing ; Exterior Looks ; and Available Mods are the biggest Diffs to me. Oh yea , dont forget the radiator overflow location and the Pod wiring ...

I've always been an 04 guy at heart.... mainly because I own one and partly because I haven't had an 05 outrun me yet..... I enjoy the basic styling of the 04's, but that's just me. :cheers

No.

Think about how stupid your question is.

Well, the '04 is a 5.7 and the '05 is a 6.0. So, since the 05's have .3 liters shaved off of the block, that would mean that they weigh less. So, YES! The '04 is that big of a dog! :lol:

This is a JOKE! DO NOT take it any other way! I love the 04's.

That's because you haven't raced me yet!

J/K Fat Bitch! :cheers

Both cars are awesome. It's all about who has more money and time to sink into them!

Stock, my '04 put down 310 rwhp (dynojet)

At dyno day saw several 05's stock around low 330's

aint' stock no more and can damn near see the gas gauge move.

instant econ down to 2.2 mpg on hard accell :rofl:

^^mine says 1.8 under full acceleration....... go figure! :cheers

If it reaches 0.0, will it go backwards ? :rofl:

Will the gauge go up if you floor it in reverse?

I have raced a couple of 05's at the track, it really is the driver. my GTO ran consistent 13.8s. One 05 ran 13.5 the other could not run quicker than 13.9. As for racing a Mach1 I raced an 04 and wiped the street with him.

 

[GTODEALER]

Nope, tried it...... :willy:

 

[NT91]

I think the 04 has a cleaner look, but I want an 05.

Half a second is how many car lengths? 4? 5?

Let's see; 105mph X 0.5 seconds = 77ft. Yep; that's about 5 car lengths.
That's considerable, IF they actually are .5 seconds quicker.

 

[GTODEALER]

.......cough, cough......b.s...... I've driven 05's and I don't think stock on stock they have enough for a 4-5 car pull on the 04's, but then again that's just me.

The only 04 GTO I have run/ watched and compared had Nitrous. He ran out of nitrous and dropped from 12.5 to 13.8-14.1. It was an a4. That same night i was running 13.4- 13.7, with one run that was13.2. As an average I was .4 to .5 faster. These were not equal though as his had an intake, and he was icing it down with every run. Plus it was the old A4 vs. M6 question.

 

[JMVorbeck]

Would it be helpful or harmful to dump a bag of ice in the air box below the filter just before a run down the track?
