Explain to me this WRX thing...

VulvaMan · 12-03-2003, 08:58 PM

I thought they were fast, mean , blah, blah....Anyway getting onto to 281N from 1604 There was one on my a$$ in the on lane and then when we got onto 281 he pulled around revved and hit it, so I figured what the hell and I hit it too, so from 35 to about 85 I pulled on him by a couple car lenghts

WTF?
anyway cool for me I guess???D

12-03-2003, 11:28 PM

Um no they arent fast at all

STI modded can get fast

Nighthawk · 12-03-2003, 11:34 PM

Firemanz · 12-04-2003, 08:55 AM

I believe they're supposed to be kinda fast from a dig because of the AWD, but after they get rolling, they're nothing special....

VulvaMan · 12-04-2003, 11:13 AM

Hey guys, first post here on LSS, great to be here. If you guys have a subscription to HOT ROD Magazine, they actually battle the '03 Cobra and the '03 WRX STI. The results are mixed both ways, but the STI is nothing to just sit and laugh at, it really gives the Cobra a run for it's money. but the AWD is pretty much all that breathes any life into the car.

VulvaMan · 12-04-2003, 10:07 PM

I dont hate sean hyland. I grew up playing hockey in Detroit and Canada so I have been familiar with them for some time. However I did try to contact them about buying thier full exhaust setup a few times and never heard anything back

So maybe I'll have someone else build me a motor if I decide to keep this thing

thewheel82 · 12-04-2003, 11:43 PM

I dont have anything against SHM, they just have price's that most people cant afford. Go to modulardepot and do some research there before you do anything, lots of knowledgeable people on that site.

I hate you guys, you make me depressed that my car doesnt look like something you catch out of the lake

about the wrx, they may not be super fast but thats not what they are designed for. I test drove one when they first came out and they are a fun car to drive.
