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....

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
