Owned Me A Sti - Page 2

Sti's are no push overs, so anyone who is able to take one from off the line (where they have the advantage due to AWD) is definetly making some impressive numbers. Kudo's boys.

I can't take them off the line yet. I know guys here getting STOCK ones to a 1.7 60 foot. It takes EVERYTHING my car has to catch that by the end of the 1/4.
I have seen them run 13.6 at 96 MPH here. Crazy off the line, terrible up top.

But I kill them from a roll.

Thats impressive. Sti's arn't cheap either. Seems like he should've been keeping up better with the upgrades he did have. Pushing out almost 300 hp stock. Nice kill for sure..

Oh i forgot to mention i just added a nitrous works gm efi nitrous kit

i used a 100 shot of nitrous on that run against the sti, it was my first racing since i got it installed and it's the best bang for your buck.

I get ignored by STI's... Give me a few years and a few more grand i'll have something to show besides a clean looking car that runs low 14's.

1996 Eclipse GST

SMOKINGIROC · #25 09-14-2005, 01:27 PM

my buddy has a 96gst, it's pretty quick

-Josh- · #26 09-14-2005, 02:05 PM

Yeah she'll get up and go, and it will run pretty close with my mods with an almost stock 97 Z28, but there's always room for improvement.

what mods do you have because my buddy always gets owned by lt1 and especially ls1 maros

-Josh- · #28 09-14-2005, 02:36 PM

GReddy Upper and lower intercooler piping, HKS SSQ, HKS filter, HKS catback, Koni struts, Skunk2 Coilovers. 18" rims that hinder my launch.... a turbo timer...doesn't do anything for performance but it's there... And i'm getting an SAFC2 sometime this month.

STi can turn way better than a 13.6. besides the drag isnt what the STi is really built for. Lets see your IROC go off road w/ that 100 shot. Or maybe a race in the rain? No, no...you should try and race them through the turns.
Good job though. STi's are nice ass cars. expensive too. Although w/ a few mods he would be killing you....100 shot or not.

My IROC handles good especially in the turns. If you have ever driven in a camaro you would know it's like driving on rails, and i don't have a stock suspension so i handle alot better than other cars.
