Rexbomb dollar for dollar...great car and money well spent....

pre-2001 models only...forget the newer REX it's under powered and a heavy weight...even RWD cars can flog it. I had my 2000 STI from new and on my second GTR....had to pour a lot of money into the GTR to exceed the standard of the STI, but the STI is driven everywhere and anywhere.

Krawler it's nice to dream, but wake up!

Skylinegeoff "eat it in third" sorry the race is over and the rex was backing off...look at your speedo and may be his brake lights are glowing as you pass. It's not worth the risk after 160. If you can't be in front or catch and pass within 300 metres...give it up. (the track is a different matter)

Ferni 210rwkw with less traction and all that extra weight = not enough to win....but maybe in your mind, refer comment for Skylinegeoff.

Serious-Seven try making yourself understandable...woop ass!!!!

Now take it all with a sense of humour...as I will, when the replies and excuses/reasons for Losing/winning etc come in.

i second that..... lol

GTR STI .....dude i in ore of your cars... u lucky and to have to fine ass bitches like that...is it r33 or r34 gtr? wouldn't a r34 (stock) just own all....

Sorry, just stating what i have seen/experienced.... even without launching in my car i have beaten wrx's (one in particular had lightweight racing wheels and exaust from what i could see)... my mates gtst with ~210rwkw, i can't beat unless i launch. Maybe the wrx's i have come up against just have bad drivers.

LOL...... you dont believe it ?

Pfffft.. i dont care.. there is already people who have seen what i have from these forums in real life.

you two kids are just keyboard warriors.

Ok then... Christmas present from Santa? Then why did you change your thing to 'Sleeper :P'

Yeah, I learned how to use a keyboard once

And how am I a kid, your 15

I'm not even going to bother replying to any of your stupid comments on how i got my car.

I have so much to say about you but what for ? where behind keyboards and argueing... what a waste of time.

anyway, WRX's are pretty hard to beat off the lights with the usual GTS25-t you find on the street.

But since they have such short gear ratio's that launch doesnt last to long.

once you hit over 100km/h you see your car rocketing past the WRX.

Are you tripping on something?, RB25 eats EJ20's... well atleast from what i have seen.

Sorry kid, but i think you didnt get what i was saying ? Offcourse a WRX could do a better 0-100 then a GTS25-t. But anyone in this particular forum would choose a R33 over a 99WRX ;)... i said the r33 is better.

GO THE RB25DET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look KID, no you didnt say the R33 is better, im gonna have to shove a sign up ur ass Quoteing 'WRX's are pretty hard to beat off the lights'

Yeah dont worry, I know a few people on here that have much to say, to you to.

I recon I could beat a wrx to 100 pretty much every time, when my car was stock and I couldn't drive it as well as I can now it only took till about 110k's, recon I could have one easily by 80 now if I dont get it off the line anywayz!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
