They are porkers because they are bloody strong. How many 10 yr old WRX's do you see getting around... and getting around without a cabin full of rattles .....a very ROUND number i suspect That said, it's not hard to get a 185 into the 14's and my 185 GrpA does a flat 13 all day with ease. With the latest round of tuning i'll be pissed if it won't pass at 12.5. Handling is fair for what they are but the later WRX's are better out of the box and why shouldn't they be being a later model. Again, add the tune up bits and chassis wise there's not much difference except the GT4 is stiffer. As for turbo 4's, the SR20 and WRX boxers can't hold a candle to a 3SGTE (maybe the Cosworth or Fiat offerings and even they aren't as strong). The reason the SR20 stacks up is because the aftermarket support for bolts on's is better in Oz. Go to japan or source your race parts yourself locally and you'll see reliable numbers from a 3SGTE that a SR20 can't compete with. This ain't a pissing comp though, throw enough dollars at anything and you can have a fast car. It's horses for courses and i'm happy to have to do a bit more work to my GT4 to get the performance if for no other reason than it's not as common as dirt. [Report message to a moderator]
