Most of the guys on the WRX forums are pretty respectfull of the stangs straight line performance. The base WRX can compete but it needs some serious upgrades(stage 4) to hang with even a lightly modded 05 GT.
I can take a WRX. The STI is another matter, but none of them are fast unless you do 3500-4000 RPM clutch drops, and Subie clutches are expensive.Madhouse said:Once the boost came up, he may have taken you, but it sounds like you pulled him off the line!
Nice one!
I get that pretty much anytime I run it past 4000rpms. To bad she desensitized me with all the premarital nagging! :grinroll:mustangbaxter said:All I know is that:

If it had the big wing, and it was hanging close with you, it was definitely a STI. They are pretty quick, but can they look any more gay? :happyhappmustangbaxter said:All I know is that:
1. it had a large oval wing
2. The mrs was in the car
3. I did not do a full race launch, just a fast excellerate off the line
4. it was only maybe an 1/8 of a mile, since I had to turn into wal-mart
5. I got out of it so I could make my right hand turn into the parking lot
6. I got yelled at by the Mrs. :shocked:

Its scarry, I almost considered getting a STI, but I just could not bring myself to getting it, besides, its a 4 door....:evilchuckloudog said:If it had the big wing, and it was hanging close with you, it was definitely a STI. They are pretty quick, but can they look any more gay? :happyhapp
I'm glad you took him - even if you cut it short and had to turn. One false move with those guys, and they'll walk on you.
Nah, that's an option on the regular WRXs, too.loudog said:If it had the big wing, and it was hanging close with you, it was definitely a STI. They are pretty quick, but can they look any more gay? :happyhapp
