Getting my wheels fitted tomorrow. Going to be hellaflush.

[funkymonkey]

hellaflush pending you mean.

if nigs can see your springs, there's nothing hella about it.

[paulr33]

you know what i cant work out

how a std wrx has more torque than my gtst with basic mods (boost, exhaust, tune etc)

4 cyl vs 6 cyl

it seems to pull better in every gear

granted the engine has 60k on it vs mine at 220k

[UNR33L]

maybe the AWD makes it feel like it pulls more?

I'm still finding it hard to get use to the power from non turbo to GTR lol the AWD is great though feels totally different

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

lol... at least you have 4 wheels to smash down the power

[UNR33L]

in the wet is still scares me though, whole car moves when it loses traction on all 4s lol

[paulr33]

it just feels more torque everywhere in the rev range vs my GTST

i dont know if its actually quicker on 1/4 etc - probably is, but it feels to pull harder

much softer ride too

[UNR33L]

could be the softness ride as well

Kris's car has soft as hell suspension and it bogs down and pulls like a mofo lol

edit: was it a STI?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Kris's tractor has soft as hell suspension and it tractors down and tractors like a tractor lol

tractor

lol

[krzysiu]

Mebbe if u had tractor suspension Hamish u could have run lower than a 12.9! On that topic my front shocks are dead so will get coilovers soon.

Pat you looked like you were cruising down the quarter not racing lol

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

yeah i would have..... but meh... i refuse to alter my car in any way for the purpose of the world's most boring form of motorsport

[paulr33]

nah its not an sti

bog stock wrx

ill find out what year it is so i can look up factory torque etc

dont know if its a 2l or 2.5l

[jezza boii]

100% agreed. It's tractor spec at the moment but I'll get that sorted ASAP

You'll get use to it.

When you do, try driving a high powered RWD car.

My car is fine in the wet Mid-engine = mad traction.

Some Onevia tried to race me at the lights yesterday. All he got was wheel spin and I was 5 car lengths ahead by the time I got to the speed limit

except that all mid engine cars come with bonus snap oversteer which means it steps out when you're decelerating. good fun in the wet in a straight line due to weight transfer, but try that shit on a corner and you'll spin more than a ballerina. My old AW11 4AGZE basher and Craig's SW20 used to do it.

I'll take understeering AWD over weird weight transfer MR kthanx.
