believe the turbo/ic/suspension/etc are a little different on the STi. also, even with my bias, STi > GT-FOUR in performance definately. sorry. . but w/ looks, i'd say they are pretty much equal tho...


That's ok cos you're wrong!

Stock the STi will own anyday, but from what I've seen you can't build them anywhere as near as much as the 3s. Maybe 400hp+, but we have all seen the 1000+hp 3s' around... Also the wrx's will blow driveshafts like you won't believe as soon as you up the boost. I read about one guy, who did 4 in 6 months running like 240hp...

700bhp + o.k.
haven't heard a 3S GTE with a 1000 though. Where did you here that?

wat do u mean by own? quarter mile? track? rally? If you beleive that a car is 'fast' because it goes fast in a straight line then of course the sti is faster. However, if youre talking about real world pace then a gt4 is faster, i can take corners much faster in the gt4 than i can in my friends sti.

anyway this is not eally a fair comparison, the comparison should be wrx to gt4. Also there are so many derivatives of sti= r, ra, ra spec c, p1, ppp, 22b etc and theres only 2 gt4 models with the same power

There are quite a few race teams in Japan that did or still do run 3s-gte's in Supras. Someone posted a link to a webpage on one of the teams ages ago (sorry I cbf searching for it).

As for the sti.. I can only say from first hard experience cruising the hills around my city in one, and from also being in a '90 alltrac and from what I've heard from st205 owners here. Most people have said that stock the car isn't as fast as they expected, and needs some work to unleash the beast.

If you think the wrx can't handle, go watch a round of the WRC, or go thrash one through some hills. Don't get me wrong, I would take a GT4 over a WRX anyday of the week.. but my point is that stock the STi is (i think) faster.

the group a cars are made specifically for rally they have no resemblence to road cars, andthe group N cars are stripped and given a full suspension overhaul. By your theory the skoda fabia, hyundai accent and peugeot 206 would be great handling cars in real life.

Like ive said theres lots of different sti's so saying an sti is faster isnt thorough enough. Also a 90 alltrac handles NOTHING like an st205
