    WTF??

    Please check your factual accuracy here.

    Impreza STi was released October 1992, with pre-release models filtering into the market in June 1992.

    The Lancer EVO was also introduced in 1992, I believe it was August although can't confirm 100%.

    2007 Hynadai Sonata V6 240ish hp and 225 torque. Leather and loaded with decent infinity sound system and loaded. Got it for 16,500k 7or 8 under retail. With my old escape i got 8k for that so it would up 8,500 and I can pay it off in roughly 2 years just in time for graduation when hopefully Ill get something real nice. I think its an ok investment becuase in 2 years with about 25k miles I feel I can get almost what I paid for the car initillay somehwere between 14000-16000. Anyway to the engine performance, when you leave it in normal drive its got a nice punch to it and high performance is real nice. But in shifttronic the car comes to life. Ive done approx a 7 second 0-60. I like the fact how on the highway you can downshift from 5th all the way to 3rd and I can really go quick. On a few of my friends shiftronics they cant do that. You can really push each gear this way.

    only thing i did was front splitter and upgraded the speakers as the standard ones where drowned out by the Vtech especially at 9000 revs

    fosk, over here its not a very common car you rarely see 1 thats why i bought it, whereas the boxsters are everywhere

    anyway i sold it ! ha

    I just love high reving cars...that s2000 takes the cake at 9000. The new civic si isnt too bad either I think it gets up around 8200. For a deal when it comes to power the new MazdaSpeed3 is ridiculous. 265hp 280torgue does a 5.8 0-60, I think its the fasted FWD on the market or something. I was looking at used S4's but I dont feel like throwing 5-10k on replacement parts becuase I hear the turbos go bad around 60k.

    My cousin just bought a mazdaspeed 3...apparently only 5,000 made in the U.S. Pretty fun car to drive...would choose a WRX for the sake of AWD over the mazda. I could see my sister sportin the mazda
    Just throw some KO4 turbos on the S4 and you will be golden

    ya, chip that mazdaspeed with intake and exhaust...that would definitely move! I love the nagaro blue as well. I'm thinking dolphin grey with black recaro seats and white inserts for me
    If I buy the RS4, it will be yellow with black windows...oh shit I can't wait!!

    Custom Cam (huge ), stock 347 cc block, stock size heads (double springs,hardened rods,double roller timing chain), intake, custom true duals with 3" x-pipe, 3 gear trans, 4.56 gear, rear suspension, weight reduction - little gutted out ( EGR,A/C system, front sway bar, rear sets etc. )
    R/T: .2 sec
    60foot: 1.52

    Next step.. TAADAA : C5R 427cc LS1 motor. Most likely TT system on there. I want to get close to 1k hp out of it.
    Not for a while tho.. this is way too much money for me to spend right now.

    Why are you stating the speed in miles? Do they not use KM/HR in France, Switzerland and Australia? Just curious

    I'm shocked to see a diverse group of car drivers here.
    I would have thought that most "meat heads" out there were into Stangs, Vettes, etc.

    My modded 01 M5 does 0-60 in 4.5, if not slightly less.

    It handles very well for such a big car. It's not a raw feel like an E30 or even E36 M3, but it's not supposed to be. In my opinion, it's great balance of comfort and feel for a four door.

    Wrong again a 2 second search of the net made me smart like you Jay-Ace you fuc-in noob...It was 2002 the Sti made it to north america
    [edit] United States-spec

    [edit] Rev. B (2002)
    North America receives its first Impreza WRX models. They are equipped with a EJ205 engine rated at 227 hp at 6000 rpm with 217 ft·lb at 4000 rpm. Unlike the Japanese EJ205, the US-spec engine uses a Mitsubishi TD04-13T turbocharger unit. In stock form, it reaches a peak 13.5 psi of boost. The seats are the same as the basic J-spec Impreza. The wheels are cast 16” x 6.5” version of the J-spec WRX NB wheels while the brakes are 2-piston/1-piston front and rear with the front rotors being ventilated disks. The gear ratios are the standard export models, but the final drive is a 3.9:1 ratio. The rear LSD is a viscous coupling type. The steering rack has a ratio of 16.5:1. The 4EAT automatic WRXs have a 45:55 torque split with Vehicle Dynamics Control. The car weighs 3085 lbs

    Now that I found wikipedia I can travel to different chatrooms and forums to try to put PPL down and make myself look smart because I got picked on too much at school..Thank god for WIKIPEDIA

    I'm glad you find Wikipedia such an enlightening source of information!!

    It wasn't actually me who posted, but I'll defend him anyway as he's my bestmate!!


    I'm just amazed at your ignorance, you never said the post related to US models and our reply never mentioned where they were released!!

    As I'm sure you're aware, all the top Jap tuning parts come from Japan, so saying that the car is new compared to the EVO is irrelevant. The top tuning companies have been making parts for STi and EVO for the same period of time, and if you're referring to any US made crap then thats even funnier. Coz the US couldnt tune a Jap motor if you were given a dot-to-dot diagram of how to do it!!

    You say you run a modifying company?!?! You really should be clued up about your business, I've no hesitation in the world in saying that the US guys are the gods of tuning muscle cars (possibly with the exception of Scandinavia in some instances) however if you;re gonna step into the Jap world be prepared.

    As for a car to beat yours........

    Sorry but if that car runs a sub-9 in that spec I'll give you my Porsche!!

    This is a 9-sec 1/4-mile EVO engine, running a staggering 930bhp in a fully lightened and prepared chassis. **Also the fastest EVO in the world!!**



    I have no question that you run a top company, you've spent a lot of money on the car and obviously wanna do well, but I'm sub-9's is rediculous.

    I have no desire to argue this out in a public forum however, if you would like to discuss spec, performance etc please PM me. I've been in the Jap scene for a long time, Ben has even longer!! We weren't Jun dealers for nothing!!

    I didn't say I run a low 9's.. I said I hope this year I will..I know where the fastest evo in the world is..At AMS in chicago..My evo has the same setup as the worlds fastest evo except in many cases better parts made by a guy that works with the mitubishi rally team..I hope to have the worlds fastest evo and like I said I live in seasonal climate near chicago and as soon as race season is on I'll post video's of my car doing runs..I guess we'll see
    Iam glad your amazed by my ignorance..I feel kinda special that you care so much...

    Sorry mate, I've been in a real shitty mood last couple of days!!

    I wasn't aware of the AMS Evo, thats a nice spec car from what I've just read. Although I was referring to "fastest" as in the Norris car pushes 215mph. The most powerful Evo that I know of is owned and built by RC Developments in Warrington, UK running circa. 1050bhp but I havent a clue what 1/4-mile that runs or if its even setup for 1/4-mile runs!!

    I wish you the best luck, I know 1st hand what it's like trying to accomplish something like that as I'm in the mddle of a big project myself... most powerful Ariel Atom!!

    Sub-9's or even Sub-10's is impressive for any road car. Out of interest though, are you in MA?? A friend of mine I just spoke to said he knows of a guy in MA who is currenly building a ~1000bhp EVO?!?!

    Jay
    No Iam not in MA..But at 35PSI on C16 Iam running just under 1000bhp and I beleive I can press it harder than that..Like I said before..I guess I got to wait and see what it can do on some dry pavement with some fresh tires..No offence taken BTW..I had no clue they were making Sti's in 92..My performance aspect of my business is mainly muscle cars and is still growing(still small)I mostly sell rims and stereo's and tint windows..Some of the harder work I take to a Master Mechanic that I have a percentage business with, but my personal interest say get a dyno and a tech and start tuning myself..Iam moving my shop in the spring for more room and were going to try to make it a more upscale local..Iam kinda in the outskirts of the ghetto right now..Ive had 4 burglary attempts in the last six months ..Each one cost time and money..I got all windows barred and a steel front door now..Anyways not trying to tell you my life story, I know what your saying we all get in those "moods"..Don't sweat it and I'll make sure to get that video of me making my timeslip this spring

    Man I think that built C5R with TT system would be just insane.
    Theres a 383cc with TT system that runs 9s on slick, 10s on drag radials, low 11s on street tire! Top speed at 200 mph. Now thats a all around car.
