Re: V-DUB In Da House!

Good runs. I'm taking for granted that your car isn't stock. What mods are on it?

It was a '03 to '04 M3 still looked brand new. And I said before that the VR4 was starting to pull on me but again when i started going through the traffic with the Z the VR couldnt keep up and just quit so that has nothing to do with the car just that the driver couldnt manuever well.

And my boost is he only thing that was apparently increased due to upgraded ECU, but i want to put it to 15 when i get a chance

He musta hit someone

VR4's have great top end, and the loss through AWD dosent get greater on the freeway. They are fast, with great power nomater what, and on the freeway the weight isnt even an issue at all. Basically its his power vs you in this case, and I know for a fact a VR4 will walk a 350z on the streets and murder on on the freeway.

You sure it was a VR4? Or, when you say he started to pull, you meant he got up and started after you like an angry shark going after some fat chick in an innertube lookin like someone outa a twinky commerical?

Re: V-DUB In Da House!

lol, first night out with the SX I had 11 flaged races, and alot of random encounters on the street and freeway. It was soooo much fun! Now all those people fear whatever car I drive out. If I drive a geo out they think it has like, a 400shot.

first gen VR4 and it got up like a fat guy running after a Whopper after i was in 4th, it wasnt that far of a gap till I out drove the guy. I'm not saying I would beat a VR4 on a straightaway or drag race, i even said i know i would lose. Don't forget there is also turbo lag for those cars where mine has virtually none so i get everything right where i want it. But if we had gone for about 4 more seconds he wouldve had a nose lead on me and eventually pass me through 5th.

Turbo lag if you're two gears too high maybe... like 5th gear, when you need to be in 3rd to start racing...

But you said it got up and went pretty good, thus, he was spooled... so, in theory, no lag. Correct?

Re: V-DUB In Da House!

Guys stop trying to prove me wrong about something that i admitted i would lose to, I said it numerous times, I WOULD LOSE TO A VR4 ON A STRAIGHT AWAY, I OUT DROVE THE GUY! It's not my fault i managed to beat a VR4 cause the guy cant drive, driving skill and just plain car abilities are 2 different things, let me put it this way, pedal to the medal he would have killed me cause there is almost a 2 sec. difference in performance, but in an autocross i wouldve killed him alot easier cause he couldnt drive.

Re: V-DUB In Da House!

Guy was probably trying to go from the wrong gear, 5th or 6th, big deal. Sound like you had quite a few good races. So congrats on that.

Re: V-DUB In Da House!

not trying to prove you wrong, there's nothing to prove.

your just saying things that arent, so we correct it. there is basically no turbo lag in a vr4

it is a 1st gen so its a low 14 high 13 second car stock.

people were just curious how a m3 blew you away and the vr4 didnt, thats all.

nice kills
