the sti's are the cars that would murder ya, you should hang with the wrx fairly easily and froma dig the good ole american tq should get ya a "W" for the sixer. now from the rolls i think he might still have ya, i believe that the reg wrx also has the turbo, its just a diffrent engine though

You should, providing you can drive, be faster than an 03 WRX. However, if he mods it or it's an STi you will be stapled to a wall, beaten, stapled to another wall, and then murdered.

In all honesty, go get it. Embarass the hell out of him. "What? You lost to me? I'm only a 3400lb V6! Dude, c'mon!"

Go-Go-Pony power. [:-]

When I weighed mine (stock) on 1/4 tank I came in at 3480. You weigh with full tank?

I was on truck scales, too.

No. I weighed the car by itself. Once I have my Exhaust on and do some weight reduction I'll reweigh it at race spec (1/4 tank, no spare, no **** in the trunk, etc)

impreza has a bigger engine doesnt it? 2.5l, where as the regular wrx has a only a 2.0

the thing is, i am planning to lose the off the line stuff, because in my opinion, there is no way i can take a 4wd with mine

i think that my biggest chances are at the rolls


anyways, we looked at the weather over here for sat night and it is supposed to be dry (woo hoo) so i think i will be hitting the street races...that will give us A LOT of "we are faster than's" and "we are slower than's"

Its raining, ofcourse ur gonna lose. Wait till a sunny day. Frum a rolling start u'd **** him up for sure cuz the turbo lag. If he a good driver he'd beat you but not by something outrageous. My buddy drives an 02 wrx too with intake a a few bolt-ons. His best are 15's, I drive a stripped V6 wif no traction control. I ****ed him up. in every way. Only when its dry tho, i barely get any wheel spin when I drop it at 4000. Oh yea, and i drive an auto.

check out the banner, my cars on the far left next to the firbird. Ive tangled wif all those cars and the only ones that beats me consistantly is the s2000 n type s. The sti in the pic has a horrible asian kid driving it, wif a turbo car like that, u gotta atleast know how to drive decently.

A wrx turbo puts out 227 with a 2.0 (the name on the back that says 2.5RS is misleading). haha I think his years puts out less like 220. An sti is a 2.5l turbo that puts out 300. That is what you probably think would murder the v6's totolly. Lets let the gt boys tangle with those.
