1994 Corvette C4 Acceleration

[achievingnirvana71]

Very nice, indeed. .. Please check out my 94' 6 speed video I just posted going 0 -80 .. Your Admiral Blue is the only color I like better than my Polo green on those 92 - 94's. ..

[achievingnirvana71]

Very nice, indeed. .. The only color I liked better than my Polo Green that year, is your Admiral Blue

[club442]

LT1 6 speed runs14 flat quarter mile with no burnout.

a C5 stick runs 13.80 without burnout

[tobroke2007]

@club442 with what stock gears and no slicks? mine has 342 gears with nitto drags and I run 13.50's all day long. 1994 C-4 with 140k miles on the clock. no power adders but a K&N.

[94jrose]

How does this compare to say a c5 corvette overall

[rx4pain]

Not sure he hit it right watch my C4 acceleration video its still an LT1 but got up much faster

[nudistfla]

if anyone is looking o buy a 6 speed 1994 vette great shape and fast email me...great video buddy

[ostreds]

love the old style dash

[SSC3034]

what was the last year of the C4 to have liquid crystal displays?

[chromesphere]

how much would a fair condition one of these cost about? I'm not a huge corvette fan, but I do like the c4 body style

[distkgo77]

@chromesphere You should be able to find one anywhere from 7K to 20K depending on mileage and condtion. I have seen a couple that were in decent condition with aftermarket paint for 6K!!!! 

[zacheryds]

@distkgo77 i found one with 140,000 miles pretty nice for 3,000

[frylock44]

@chromesphere 3-20k depending on condition, I sold my 87 c4 for $2750 in july because I was moving.

[bugattiveyron277]

@chromesphere LOOK at mine its for sale

[bloodynuggets]

@chromesphere Depending on how far you want to drive... I know a good deal for a red C4 is in decent shape with a new 350 with less than 10k on it for about 7 grand in Minnesota.

[money50863]

This is gonna be my first car no lie here

[harrybaconstrip22]

Jesus, Thats a fast car

[JoSu3ZR1]

is this an automatic?

[distkgo77]

@JoSu3ZR1 Yes

[cliffabrown]

god 2.73 gears suck =(

[MarcL0116]

@cliffabrown Trying to find 3.45's for mine lol

[abdulios]

@cliffabrown Yep too low of a final drive gear ratio.

[l337pwnage]

Took me a while to get used to it, but I really like the "hybrid" dash. I had a young kid look into my car when it was parked, then he asks, "How come your speedometer only goes up to 8?" (I have an LT4). lol.

The best benefit is I think my speed recognition is faster.

[distkgo77]

@l337pwnage Too funny!! The LT4 is not too much slower than a 345 horse C5!!  LOL - Speedometer goes to 8!?

[krazor8]

@distkgo77 confused tach for spedo

[DUSHANMANGRUE]

i got a questionnn, im thinking of buying a 94' vette

I know its a sports car nd all but is it mandatory for it to run on premium or is regular okay too?.. (the car will be driven everyday)

[distkgo77]

@DUSHANMANGRUE I would run in on premium only. It will get better mileage and you will have less problems.....  If your going to by the car, pop for the good gas!!

[DUSHANMANGRUE]

@distkgo77 hey thanks for the reply, how good roughly is the mileage?

[distkgo77]

@DUSHANMANGRUE This 94' gets around 25 to 26 MPG on the highway over long distances with an automatic! Expect 15 to 18 in town, depending on how you drive!

[DUSHANMANGRUE]

@distkgo77 oh mann sweet

the car will probably be doing around 80 most of the time so i guess im set

thanks bro =)

[distkgo77]

@DUSHANMANGRUE These cars get great mileage around 75 to 80 MPH. Good luck and have fun!!

[DUSHANMANGRUE]

@distkgo77 lmao oh man ima have fun for sure :P

[RacingRocks12]

@DUSHANMANGRUE If you do get one, they are pretty awesome nice looking cars! If you get it with the 6 spd though, i seem to average 31-35 highway MPG. Pretty surprising. Though in town is about the same there, even when skipping gears. haha. And ive worked at a corvette shop, try to never run low grade fuel in it, there not properly set up for it, they are basically race engines ya know. ;P

[zerolimit4life]

@distkgo77 lol i get about 12.8 miles total to the gal lol

[MisterPeetBull]

@DUSHANMANGRUE If you were really considering getting a Corvette, you wouldn't be concerned about the fuel mileage. Just saying.

[waltcj]

@DUSHANMANGRUE I just sold my '94:( . yes you can run low grade fuel with no real problem, however, obviously, performace will be substantially decreased. I'd run high octain occasionally to keep things clean though,and to have fun.

[SickG6]

I hear a faint sound in the background that is similar to that of an Eaton blower...

[distkgo77]

@SickG6 Just an LT1 whine....

[ImptheGimp]

why did you stop at 102? I have a 96 c4.....

[distkgo77]

@ImptheGimp I was in triffic..... Returning Dad's car to him. I have other videos going much faster in the same car!

[coandcaiv]

high on grunt...low on quality..the GM generic way!! -.-

[resdes213]

look like it would be a good race with my ss impala

[wkjeepguy24]

your not stepping on it all the way!

[wally2714]

Push half on the gas (from a standstill) and floor it after about 2 ft and you should get minimal spin. I can launch my 95 z28 to a faster 0-60 than that (not bragging, just letting you know how to launch it) 0-60 in 6.2-6.5 on a stopwatch.

[distkgo77]

I was not launching the car! Just a step on the gas and go with the camera in my hands!  The car has traction control and will not spin if you torque stand it! AKA - hold the brake down the give it a little gas and let the brake off.... Thanks

[wally2714]

Well the traction control made dad's vette slower than the z28 then.

[motoracerknack]

the 1994 models have it where u can turn traction control off so yess you can spin i have one

[JPARKERZ28]

@wally2714 thats a shit time for a 95 z28 race much?

[Quatermain98526]

@wally2714 6.2 for a '95 Z28? That seems a little slow...aren't they capable of 5's?

[suckTTvapor]

Actually, lag is far over-rated in most vehicles. You have it opposite... Turbos used by race cars, which are normally larger, spool slower because of large compressor wheel size.. whilst a street turbo, or smaller turbo, will spool much faster because of it's smaller compressor wheel size. A car is much more efficient with a turbo charger, better mpg, less horsepower loss, &c. My car is TT and from a dead stop I can go from -15 vacuum to 15 lbs of boost ~1-1.5 seconds time. Not much lag there

[iplaybassandgh2]

I love my 94! lol

[MrTerces000]

Is that an Automatic or Standard?

[distkgo77]

This is an Automatic.....

[skloogerblugin]

fine machine right there, 300hp under a fiberglass body... acceleration is priceless

[hunnybun03]

that aint bad for a car of that age. i love the look of the c4. can you immagine that with a couple of turbos or a supercharger!!!

[vettedude418]

callaway sledgehammer

[distkgo77]

Yes, the Sledgehammer. This car did have a couple of turbos. I know it had 880+ horse power and ran to a top speed of almost 255 miles per hour. And this is all back in the late 80's!!!!

[Volchenok1]

This car had 800 HP + ? In more info it says stock apart from exhaust mods?

[distkgo77]

No, we were talking about the Sledgehammer corvette from the 80's that had twin turbos. Not this car! It is mostly stock....

[drzipperhead]

back in the late eighties huh. isnt it a 1994?

[distkgo77]

You should read the whole conversation. This car is a 1994. We were talking about turbos and the Sledgehammer Vette of the 80's that went 254 miles per hour.

[RacingRocks12]

dont get any turbos or superchargers. let it breath and upgrade internal engine components and the computer. alot better.

[kcole939]

Did you realize a turbocharger will let it "breath" more?

[RacingRocks12]

lol. true. I feel stupid. i just dont like turbos. ill take some internal upgrades though.

[HLSDK]

I know what you mean about not liking turbos, the sound in unbearable IMO

[frodo70444]

@kcole939 go turbocharge your fuckin honda
