Re: 99 Vr4 vs. 02 Firehawk
The Firehawk is better for straight line, and they're probably about even in the handling department.

Re: 99 Vr4 vs. 02 Firehawk
Firehawk should be superior in everything except maybe high speed roadholding due to its higher power and lower weight.

Re: 99 Vr4 vs. 02 Firehawk
Which Vr4 are we talking about here the Galant Vr4 or the Leagum Vr4???
But any way the Firehawk would be faster!

1999 Mitsubishi GTO VR4 (3000GT VR4)
3.0L Twin Turbo 6-Cylinder 320HP 315TQ 6-Speed Manual 3780Lbs AWD 0-60- 5.3 Seconds 1/4 Mile- [email protected] 2002 T/A Firehawk Engine: LS1 5.7 liter (346 cubic inch) rated at 345 hp, 350 lb-ft Transmission: T56 6 speed manual The times I found for the Firehawk were in the 13s. I hear though they could hit 12s with a really good driver. I'm just guessing the performance of the Firehawk is that of the SS.

Firehawks are faster than SS Camaros, WS6 Trans Ams are on par with the Camaro SS.

The Firehawk should be quicker, but, as most things come down to, the driver makes all the difference. The strength of the VR4 in any race would be off the line and pretty even in the twisties. I know which I'd rather have but in a numbers game the Firehawk comes out in front.

Re: 99 Vr4 vs. 02 Firehawk
the vr4 would launch faster but the firehawk would quickly catch up and win by a little. vr4 prob. handles a little better. the vr4 is so damn heavy though.
