    why does everyone throw out "if i had the 4k difference in mods i would own you".....thats like me saying "fine take your 4k dump it into the stang...then lets race in the snow":bang: . trust me bub there is quite a bit left in the stock sti motor to make damn good hp and torque(yes i know...

    not to start a war over this but i wouldnt call those times quite true. STi's are quite capable of a very low 13 in stock street trim. only crappy drivers run a 13.8in an STi(unless its high altitude....then i will forgive that) , i ran a 13.8 in wrx with just a 70$ manual boost controller and i...

    not to be an a$$ but it is not the same engine(if you are refering to usdm sti), the WRC cars run a 2.0l h-4. the 2004-06 sti motor is 2.5l yes our cars are not torque monters but they dont lack it either at least the sti doesnt. 500hp out of an evo or sti is not the limit, hell there are a...

    05GT v. WRX

    same point we started at and a wrc team puts stuff on their cars for the look too, right.they like throwing all that r&d money out the window. i understand that airflow makes the wing work the way it should if design properly. it wont create downforce at 0mph.....but it will at say...

    05GT v. WRX

    but you really havent given me any facts about the item at hand....the STI. sure you posted a link about the physics of racing, and it is very informative. although it still doesnt tell us, you , or me that the STI's wing has no function at all other than drag. so if i told you Paul Hansen...

    05GT v. WRX

    yes i do and that is a proven fact. this is from an S.W.R.t. website talking about the wing (one pictured above) since i pulled this off a srwt website, though it gives no specifics of the wings performance, i can atleast back up my claim .....somewhat. second do you really think that a...

    gp001: so tell me this, if for a rear wing to be functional it has to be a structual component of the car, then why do wrc cars trunks open it not attached to anything structual......yet their wings are very functional. [/IMG] :shrug: i guess i need to do more research :rolleyes...

    05GT v. WRX

    you can make fun all you want but the whole basis of your argument is that the wing is "rice" and the lack of function, i agree i dont like it either. subaru is not known to dress cars for favorable appearances :rolleyes: ...they tend to strive more for function(as a whole) than anything else ...

    05GT v. WRX

    you stated that the wing is not functional, i said it is.although i did state it doesnt produce much, i do believe its around 60lbs at around 70- 80mph and like 100lbs at 120 but like i said it does provide some downforce but it also reduces rear lift. Also, without actual wind tunnel aero data...

    05GT v. WRX

    actually the wing is very functional, it does what it is supposed to do(adds rear downforce, just not much) you sir (GP001) need to do some research before you start spouting. jfischer: funny how the corvette is a completely different car, it was built to go 180 mph . its also funny that...

    05GT v. WRX

    why do we always have to be labeled as rice :fuss:. i guess all you guys have mullets :p . a stock 05 gt will more than likely spank a stock rex in the 1320, drivers being equal. now an sti would be different but i think it still boils down to driver skill.

    Why high power V8's are better.

    as a former 2k1 gt owner and now 03 wrx owner...some of you guys call cars like these (wrx, sti, and evo's) ricers cause the exhaust is big....there are reasons for this. just cause the car is made in japan doesnt mean that us scooby owners live the "ricer" life. infact go to www.nasioc.com and...
