Why?

What was the poster actually asking? Straight line? around a circuit?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that when the OP asked which is 'Quicker' he was talking about straight line stuff.................99.9% of school children who ask these type of questions are!

Simple question simple answer really :D

I was at a track day recently with two mates in brand new WRX's, 1 sedan, 1 hatch. The sedan had semi's, a tune (gained approx 50kw) and suspension. The hatch had road tyres, but big brakes (6 piston fronts), suspension and a tune.

I'm a pretty novice driver and it was my first time in the GTR on OP south. at the end of the day, they were both a second or so off my pace, and the instructors where only a second and a half or so quicker in their cars.

Yes my 32 is an N1, but it has stock suspension, stock brakes, road tyres, and i ran with the boost controller turned off. Was 35 degrees so didn't want to up the boost and stress the car.

Edit - the pro drivers where about 2 seconds quicker than me in the rexxies

Ohhh snap!
That's an even worse massacre for the WRX to march itself into.

:thumbsup:

Yes, because they're both aimed at the same market :thumbsup:

No, because we should be comparing cars that are released in the same era. ;)

That is usually the fair comparison.

But having said that, the OP has not specified what year / model WRX.

It is stated in the title R32 GTR, which was built from 1989 to 1994.

We can only assume which year / model WRX, but OP has not been back to the tread to reply.

+ I was going along with PSI GTSII post.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
