Ronnchee Clutched January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 Just for talking cork purpose. My friend having coffee talk with me this morning. My friend was driving WRX, 2003 model, and had changed to bigger turbo. He was travelling at SLE in wee hours and was doing something like 140km/h. When he wanted to overtake a Vios, the Vios refused to let him passed, and ran parallel. Felt challenge, he accelerated all the went to 260km/h. Still Vios was beside him. Before the "truth" was out, sadly that was the end of the road and my friend needed to exit from the expressway. Kudos to Vios ! Wonder what mods the Vios has ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios Neutral Newbie January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 (edited) from what i have known, there are some hard core vogsters who actually modded their engine... they put in an "inspired" engine this mod helps them to cut their century sprint to just under 7s...

Emils 2nd Gear January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 I thought that the Vios should have taken off like an airplane when it hits such speeds... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnchee Clutched January 14, 2008 Author Share January 14, 2008 I truely believe the Vios's engine is swapped. Maybe to Thai turbo Vios . Anyway, at 260km/h, no kidding man ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcff_1980 Neutral Newbie January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 its possible engine and turbo can be easily done up. but most importantly vios is a lighter car than wrx. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixat 1st Gear January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 Bro how long was the stretch they were on? from 140km/h to 260km/h would have taken some time right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnchee Clutched January 14, 2008 Author Share January 14, 2008 His GF stays in AMK and he in Woodlands, so I reckon was that stretch. Straight road, unlike PIE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrestcat 2nd Gear January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 Hi Bro, it's possible that a modded vios can take on the rex. In fact, nowadays Eurovans like the VW Caddys have been modded till There's a red one with 200 horses upz for sale on sg carmart. U can check it out No offence to anyone, just for talking cork purposes Btw, I do not own a eurovan though i wish i had the $ to buy that red one on sgcarmart Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mnphosis 1st Gear January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 maybe he exagerrate abit la. its more like 160km/h. does anyone have any idea what 260km/h would look like on singapore roads? u know, it does not matter which expressway. singapore roads. i think u have to take his words with abit of salt although i have no comments on how his vios can pace the wrx but i sure do doubt the 260km/h part bro. btw i did try an altis with 3 pax including me at 140km/h and it was feeling like a hover craft already. vios must have lots of downforce to keep it from flying at 260km/h :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvermini Neutral Newbie January 14, 2008 Share January 14, 2008 agree. even vios mod it cant possible reach tat speed. vios is a 1.5litre... top speed should b ard 160.. if mod it mostly can rach ard 200.. but 260 is abit too far to be true... unless lik some of u said, swop engine which i don think the owner dare to swap in a country lik SINGAPORE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what mods the Vios has ? sorry to pichar yr fren's lobang 1. 260kmh ? a bit too right ? by that time ... already trail braking to exit SLE into BKE liao... where got time to talk about overtaking ? with that said i believe Vios can give Rex a good run for money altho i cannot believe Rex lost overall why ? 1. you said Rex got bigger turbo ? = turbo lag by the time yr snail kick in ... Vios dont know run until where liao its like waiting for Vtec to kick in ... wait until tua lam pah 2. maybe Vios got snail ... a lot of them hv snail ... running on stealth mode chk out the vios forum for necessary poisons 3. the rest is either driver balls, skill, reaction time or shifting speed liao ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
