I'M BACK!!! =) My Topics is...WRX Vs R34 GTT


Recommended Posts

G'day G'day people...This is the first message I've posted on the forum in AGES...anyways here's what I wanna ask...who's faster on a straight drag: WRX vs R34 GTT? My R34 is pretty much stock with a intercooler...i've drag a mate's wrx (current model) which is stock as well and showed him who's daddy. But last night, my galfriend's friend (some stupid kid) drives a wrx too (previous model; looks pretty much stock except of a loud exhaust) wants to drag me and was bragging to my friend that he would whoop my arse...which i heard and laugh cause i dont think a stock rex can. Opinions please...thats if you understood what i just wrote...haha =)

Show him who's daddy I say... um the WRX should be able to out maneuvre you, but in a straight line I think you'd have the upper had with a more torquey engine with a better lower end acceleration.

Dus he have subwoofa!s?

You are talking about on a drag strip right?

:rofl:

WRX ~ Only seriously modded sti's have been quicker than mine.

An 02 sti ran a 13.6 at heathcote, my best was 13.8, if I had the same mods as him it would be a lot closer...

just stir him up and tell him to launch at 7000rpm, then u will win easily as he will be sitting there after his 7000rpm launch with a broken gearbox.

I've raced plenty of rexes with fmic, safc and exhaust and owned them after switching into second gear.

When my car was stock I use to have runs with a lot of WRXs. Win some, lose some....... it all depends on whos got more cash hehehe (usually them hahaha). But from experience, from stop start they usually have the upper hand but u just have to play catch up. Usually on rolling start, the tide would turn and he/she would have to play follow the leader. Also I love the smell of their clutch when they have a few hard launches.

you should be fine andy...if your worried go buy a cheap bleed valve or something for like $60 from autobarn, crank up the boost as see him in the back of your mirror. i;ve also got to come down to the private track of your mates, have a couple of runs. :rofl:

mmm...ok...advice taken...i just wont drag him...just piss him off that my car looks nicer than his...haha

No skylines should be afraid of WRX even if you know you're gona loose, you still give it to them.

No sissy backing out excuse ( sorry to say this ).

i've seen this bleed valve thing come up a few times, what exactly do they do? sounds like a pretty cheap mod...

cheers.

a bleed valve is essentially a wastegate. it bleeds off pressure before the wastegate and in doing so tricking the wastegate to remain shut and produce more boost.

on the topic of wrx vs gtt....i currently own a gtt and my previous car was a wrx...i love them both, and they are about as quick as one another at the moment....

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
