i think alot of times are the driver... not the car....

:D :D :D

 

just that many times behind the wrx is a stupid young driver who thinks that a wrx can take corner without slowing down or braking...

they under estimate many things.....

:D :D :D

 

last time ppl say civic eg and ek models are ah beng cars....

now they say wrx are ah beng cars....

hahahaaa.....

never ending.......

 

we should look at the driver not the car.......

many ppl who drives conti cars i know ARE F UP TOO..... as in their personality.....

There is no replacement for displacement!!

 

Your statement is very true in the 70s & 80s but not today anymore! Many cars manufacturers today like Merc, VW, Volvo, BMW are downsizing their engine together with light force induction to compromise power lose. Take the VW twin charge 1.4L engine for example, it can makan any 2L NA anytime without much effort. The 1.8L E250 puts out 204bhp Merc has no prob keeping up with any 2.5L to 3L NA cars. WRC cars has downsize its engine to 1.6L turbo this season but still boost 300bhp, same output as the 2L engine before. F1 is gonna to use 1.6L turbo engine in the coming yr. Modern technology today has made cars engine smaller for better economy and less emission without compromising on the power output of an engine.

If you noticed, heavily modded cars usually are the ones who keep their cool. They release it on the tracks. The trend of reckless driving and all that whatnots are usually young hot blooded teens looking for an adrenaline rush.

 

But who are we to judge as everyone goes through that phase. To be old and wise you have to be young and foolish once.

 

And no offence, a heavily modded evo or sti or even a fd2r is fully capable of taking on a z4. Perhaps they just choose not to.

 

you don't need a heavily modded evo/sti to take on a z4, a STOCK evo/sti will have no problem 'creaming' the z4 anytime anywhere.

Not a Z4 35i...stock STI will smell smoke after 100 km/h....their 3.0 35i twin turbo engines are crazy.

 

Even if you talk about mods 3.0 block vs 2.0/2.5.... again the BMW engine got better potential. You get what you paid for.

i drive something else when i go out late at night.

 

not trying to sound snobbish again but i realised, what you drive, indirectly determines the type of cars that wants to challenge you.

 

with my 1.4TSI scirocco, usual challengers are SSS, jazz/fit, getz, 1.8 or 2.0 civic. most of the time i dont care, because i want to avoid dangerous driving or people seeing red after the sprint. having said that, scirocco is not fast at all, just slightly faster than normal everyday cars that are 10-11s. people with fairylady, wrx/sti/evo and above probably cannot be bothered with me haha ^_^

 

when i drive my family's z4 35i.. all these clowns heavily modded ones, suddenly so calm and cool by the side. my neighbours drive alot of GTR and AM, bentley all these exotic makes. when i come home late, always see them one.. so its common to sprint abit. but we v friendly, stop at busstop at 3am chit chat after friendly sprint. im ok with losing, but not many people feel the same.

 

Bro I am confused leh. So which car did you often get challenged in? But anyway, Z4 35i is a cool ride.

er...okaaay. Seriously why must you keep comparing until WRX wins at least something? [rolleyes] I might as well say Z4 lowest end 23i model can easily beat Impreza 1.5 as well. Lets keep things in context shall we?

wahaha sorry. i mean i get challenges more often in my scirocco.. maybe people see behind the TSI badge dont have "2.0" so easier to makan [laugh]

 

my car stock on paper smelly smelly also 8s.. youtube stock 1.4TSI also can hit 7.1s (fastest i've seen) with 1 passenger and almost empty tank.

 

i have tried to verify the above but with my gf timing it [laugh] but only got 7.5s

 

when i drive my other z4 35i.. i see the same clowns appearing near certain places in the east, those loud mods are hard to miss and forget. but so guai suddenly!

 

when i was referring to evo, sti, wrx.. i mean they cannot be bothered with my scirocco.

 

but who cares, i use both to have friendly with my neighbours on their 5s exotic cars :wub:

 

people, dont be so quick to defend defend wrx la.. just saying nia, also not insulting any car [:)]
