Good q mate, a smidge under the 7 mark I'd imagine? Also depends on wheel, suspension set up and how much traction they can get off the mark. My standard VTS has traction issues off the mark with std wheels and good tyres, i can only imagine what a cammed version would be like... but yeah, the look on Type-R owner's faces when the wee Saxo is sitting on their arse would be priceless.

I was thinking it must be just below 7 as i have heard they will keep up with type R's.

Only thing is, the cammed VTS in question will most likely have a host of other mods done to it... i don't think theres a silly enough VTS owner thats going to just pop in 708s and a map and say, 'ahh there we go, lets go butch some Type-Rs!' They are going to have (more than likely) full exhaust system, induction, and most probably different wheels and suspension, all of which will affect acceleration time. Bearing that in mind, I wouldn't be surprised if a cammed VTS did the sprint in dry conditions, with good tyres and got around the 6.5ish mark. Quite possible if alls running smoothly.
Of course this is just an objective estimate, if anyone lucky enough to have a cammed VTS has gone and done a measurement, would be interesting to know...

1. s1 boxes are rare as fuck, dont expect a good one for under £200
2. ive seen many run mid 6 to 60 on 708s, depens how shit you are at driving

Thats pretty good to know that they do 0-60 in around 6.5 seconds.Im thinking about get a set 708s and a remap after xmas.I have already got a manifold,de-cat pipe,magnex'cat back system and a induction kit.
Would there be anythink else you would buy before getting a set of cams and re-map?

i can run between 6-6.2 seconds. it depends on a lot of things. weight of car, how you drive it and you definatly need a set of good tyres. preferably proxie TR1's
