Those things are pretty damn quick! Why did my turbo have to be off!!! hahahaha

Nice guy though. Relatively dry roads, but still, spun the tires in 2nd for a while, so I guess there was still some moisture. Anyway, he was behind me and then while gunning it, he flew by me and when about a car or two in front he stepped on the brakes. Fast car! I hope I get a chance to encounter him again! hahah:angel:

i had an sti mess with me a little bit, after i hit around 140 and weaved in and out of traffic, imagine that he was gone!, however this was on my bike, i could never do that in my car

the main reason i took off was because i really didn't like the salesman who had people in the car on a test drive, coming up repeatadly up to inches away from my rear wheel like it was some kind of a joke, (some joke he taps me and i crash) so i said screw this, downshifted and ..........i was gone

hakkas or blizzaks with rims can be had for under 2000...

but vince, theres no way you got new tires AND rims for an sti for under 1k! did you buy used or something? :)

vince
11-30-2003, 12:34 PM

but if i go with new hankooks the total will be around 1500.

why would you want winter tires for an STi , its AWD, grow some balls... lol ... just kidding, i drove my 88 325ix in the winter w/o winter tires last year, that car is AWD, best winter ever... lol

STi's are cheaper and faster than M3's right? i belive a STi has 333hp and the M3 has 300hp ... correct me if im wrong...

STi is my dream car, :thumbsup:

m3s are rather heavy though

sti would beat an e36
sti and e46 would be very close, dunno who has the edge there

stock to stock e46 is faster from the comparisons and reviews I read. It's pretty subjective to the driver IMO, so yea they are pretty close. But the M3 has bling factor
:bigpimp:

elimit
12-18-2003, 02:35 PM
'01 E46 - 343 HP, 364 ft lb - 3,400 Lbs.

'03 STi - 300 HP, 300 ft lb - 3,263 Lbs.

'99 E36 - 240 HP, 236 ft lb - 3,415 Lbs.

It looks like the STi would need a pretty good driver, the wiehgt of the vehicles are fairly similar, my guess would be due to the Subarus AWD components, but id definately be curious to see who would win in the 1/4 (stock vs. stock), E46 vs. Sti that is...

btw, i got these numbers from supercars.net

if youre going to bench race, at least look up 1/4 times ;)

there was no 03 usdm sti though.

1/4 mile times dont mean anything unless they were done by the same driver at the same location... too many variances from just arbitrarily grabbing numbers off any old combination od magazines.

i disagree...while they dont mean EVERYTHING, they certainly do mean SOMETHING

if one car consistently does high 11s while another consistently does high 12s at similar altitudes, its a safe bet the 11 sec car is faster! ;)

Having a great deal of familiarity with Subie's - I used to sell them - and being a jaded motherfucker from the age of dinosaurs who has owned and sold virtually every make of car available this side of superexpensive European exoticars, I have to say that the Sti is the very best bang for the buck there is.

Period!

Any other opinions?
