Subaru brz

Get a wrx
>>
>>15741703
doesn't look as cool
>>
They just need a tad more power damnit, I want one but I have a MS3 and I would miss having torque.
>>
>>15741720
come one lad they were built to be modified stop expecting the manufacturer to do it all for you and effectively kill the aftermarket
>>
>>15741743
This. BRZ with supercharger is sex.

If you get one, put one of these on it
>>
>>15741713

This. BRZ is the best looking consumer car out there. Just buy one used, throw on a bolt-in turbo then run around 10lbs of boost, buy aftermarket equal length headers and flash the ecu. You'll create around 60 more horsepower and be able to compete with a WRX and even a stock Mustang GT. Wider rear tires are desirable for more control too.

Everything will probably run you 8-10K excluding the tires and will cost as much as a brand new WRX.
>>
>>15741754
nope
>>
>>15741693
No

>>15741754
No.

Not testing strip is that long. So he's on a highway. I've seen videos of people do 200+ mph on an empty highway. They can only hold it for so long (10-15 secs) before they have to brake due to a bend, turn, other cars, etc. He's doing that for a straight minute. Plus the shifts feel weird as fuck.

S60s are sleepers thou but not that fast.
>>
>>15741693
It's not a good car for the price. Mods to fix the manufacturers mistakes bump the price up even further. You can get a used SLK550 or maybe even an SL65 for the price of one of those new.
>>
>>15741693
Its really not as slow as everyone makes it out to be. The 0-100km/h times everyone quotes are for the auto and of course an automatic sportscar is shit.

I've got an 86 and I dragged a Monaro at the lights today and he only started pulling ahead slowly once we got to 100. He had a passenger and it was wet so traction would have influenced things but keeping up with a 10 year old V8 in a 4 cyl car isn't bad.
>>
>>15741693
Would you still want it if you knew it doesn't make 200bhp, but 140 to 160, with the occasional 170 under perfect conditions?
>>
>>15744573
Is that whp or bhp
>>
>>15744573
>what is whp?
fucking kids
>>
>>15744127
Buy header with turbo kit.
>>
>>15744573
And by perfect conditions you mean running good fuel?

Get a big holed exhaust so it can shoot more of the gas out to propel it getting faster times
>>
>>15744693
like air gas not liquid

>>15744675
>140whp is normal for a 200bhp car
Yeah, us fucking kids, right?
>>
>>15744710
if you had a driver's license you'd understand
>>
>>15744724
Understand what exactly?
>>
>>15744733
lol just grow up then you'll see stop being ignorant and wait your turn
>>
Just try driving it and then decide.

I was in love with it, thought I NEEDED it, so signed up for a test drive.
It's a fun car. I would love to fool with it on weekends, but would never daily it.
Don't listen to the internet. Try it for yourself.
>>
>>15744745
So, just , no explanation why you think drivetrain losses varying between 15 and 30% is normal? The car should have 175 to 180whp most of the time, but doesn't.
>>
>>15744786
I wish you just waited until you were older to try and argue
>>
>>15744786
Seriously, shouldn't you be in school?
>>
>>15744795
>>15744803
Actually, I think I'm too old for this level of shitposting.
>>
>>15744786
160-175rwhp is the average m8
>>
>>15744821
>whp=/=bhp
>variances between dynos
You're better off just getting a bus pass son.
>>
>>15744844
That's the average maximum peak power for different cars. The average peak power is a lot less and fluctuates more than what's reasonable.
>>15744848
>>whp=/=bhp
>water is wet so I'm right
Same car, same dyno, different ambient temperatures and water temperatures.

If you like it, then yes, you should buy it

And still beat a manual FRS (Remember, autos that old were much slower than manuals)

FRS fags in fucking rooins

It's okay thou. At least you can beat an old grandma in a Prius.
>>
>>15745175
What about lap times :^)
>>
>>15745189
You sure you want to go that road?
