Re: Subaru STI vs. RX7 vs. Lightning

That is the slowest FD in the world!

Honestly...a properly prepared and single turbo FD would spank the bejesus out of both those cars!

(PS: This does NOT belong in car comparo...I goes to Car video section)

I dis aggree my self... I'm a Die hard Subaru fan. I"ve owned once myself. It was a 92 legacy sport, with turbo. I would smoke anything. But a new Impreza STI with 300 horse to all 4 wheels should and will take anything!.

You guys really are giving the STI no credit at all.

Re: Subaru STI vs. RX7 vs. Lightning

People give the Subaru WRX STI no props. The 2004 STi with 300hp i know for a fact is faster stock than a twin turbo Supra, turboed RX7's, NSX, Evo whatever, Skyline, BMW M3, and is as fast as a 2003 Ford Mustang Cobra. STi 0-60 is 4.4 seconds. a fact. G-tech pro doesnt lie! Proven many times.

Re: Subaru STI vs. RX7 vs. Lightning

A Mustang wont beat nor lose to the 2004 STi. The y are the same 0-60 and 1/4 mile. It's all about the reaction time and shifts.

Re: Subaru STI vs. RX7 vs. Lightning

I dont know what the Viper is talking about, the Corvette C5 is faster. What now. And it cost less. As mush money you buy a viper for, take that money and suup up a STi and itl kill the Hennesy Viper. I say that from experience. Seen it, done it.
