Rode in my Roomates WRX...

Yup exactly what the title says..... he got it last week, but right when he got it , the next day he went on a weeks vacation and took it with him....

He got back today, We went to get gas... we refilled and all i can say is

That thing HAULS ***!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It just sucked me back into my seat when he gased it..... not to mention there were 3 of us in the car

And to whoever that dumb-*** was for making that post about if a 2K1 Civic with I/H/E could win against a stock WRX....... ummmmm NOOOOO

We were doing 60mph and he gunned it on the highway and we were at 110mph in a-matter-of-seconds!!!!!!

All i can say is
also i took a pic of his WRX and will post it later

if u had read my post, i asked if it was possible with i/h/e, aem pullies, and a 50 shot of n2o. i asked IF it was possible.

and i dont talk about highway racing because highway racing = bullshit. when i say race i mean drag race, you know...the one where you start from a full stop.

what do you expect, the WRX is more powerful, and turbocharged.

why is it bs? you think a car can only prove to be faster than you if you take him from a standstill? highways races prove a lot! a 7th gen civic would lose even worse at highways speeds to a WRX. whether you start at 0mph or 90mph, a race is a race if you have the ballz to accept. either way, it's kinda foolish to
even compare a WRX to a Civic anyways, COMPLETELY dif class of car

When the turbo kits come out for the DC5 next year, I'm pretty sure the tables will be turned. The K20A2 will be a beast when it's boosted.

Auto WRXs suck. Its true, a stick 2k1 w/I/H/E could beat a slushbox WRX in a short race. At higher speeds, the WRX would obviously pull on the civic. Stick WRX is a different story.

I've driven both of them BTW.
