1992 Stealth R/T vs. 2005 Focus ZX3

[Pizzaguy]

I was just wondering what you guys think, do you think a 92' Stealth R/t (non-turbo) 5 speed can take a 2005 Focus ZX3 5-speed?

it's not a stealth R/T if it's non-turbo, and yes it should beat the Focus.

well, on the back it says Stealth R/T and it has the DOHC but not the TT.

I'm sorry to tell you man, but even if you get a 250 shot of NAWZ he's still gonna' make you look like a prison bitch... now maybe if you had a civic with a body kit that'd be a different story

^ LoL ^

[Pizzaguy]

would he really beat me that bad?

[1viadrft]

^ Well, there is only way to find out, huh? ^

[Pizzaguy]

lol, i guess you're right..but i dont want to look like a prison bitch. ^^" and if you guys say thats what ill look like..i just wont race him.

Ok but if you dont race him you'll look like a prison bitch who's a pussy!

If the guy is a jerk then just forget it but if he is a nice guy and 3s drivers usually are, then just run him for fun. see how you do.
I've smoked a few Focus SVTs but never ran a ZX3, my wife has though.

just look at the numbers, the zx3 makes what 130 hp at the crank? the Mitsubishi 3.0 DOHC makes 222. thats about 170 at the wheels, still alot more then the ZX3.

lol dude, I was just fuckin' with you, yea man you'll spank his ass just like I did musashi's sister last night.... come on musashi I wanna see you come back from that pwnage!!!

LMFAO - you guys are a riot - who needs comedy central - love ya dudes - HAHAHAHAHAHA

an yes eclipse - they have a R/T non - turbo model - make sure u know what ur talkin bout b4 u answer
u (should?) will own him btw - u should have like twice as much hp as him anyhow with a R/T i drove my friends Ford fuckas an it was like driving a moped minus the noisy exhaust of a moped

[1viadrft]

222HP = 175-180 rwhp, no?

[xXxRocker5150]

well as much as musashi doesn't like to hear about it, mitsu over rated their engines, so it's more like 210 HP... which does relate to about 180 190ish WHP

EDIT... I don't remeber where I saw it... but I think there was a figure that said something like; for FWD you loose 12% of the HP your engine makes while transfering the power to the wheels, RWD is like 15-17% and AWD is like 18-20% ??? I don't member exactly, but it's something like that

[1viadrft]

Really? 210HP? Hmmm... I raced an SL with some mods about a year ago and I beat him pretty good. About a car length and a half maybe...
