No one cares that one beat you in your civic faggot, go have asspain somewhere else.

So an 07 sienna can beat this?

Can't you boost these till they're stupidly quick?

Barely beats v6 Camry or accord and needs a shit ton of mods to make it anywhere near "quick"
> fun
Has one of the worst manual transmissions of any car and rev hangs like a bitch

Like I.said before this gets smoked by tracy mcbasicbitch's Sienna and has half the capacity

>Has one of the worst manual transmissions of any car and rev hangs like a bitch
The transmission is shitty on the early WRXs but the rev hang is a brand new issue only found on the 15s and 16s. You're conflating two generations of car into one extra shitty generation of car that doesn't actually exist.
I doubt that minivans are faster
>>16058799
Even a minivan that outdoes a WRX in a straight line has no chance once a corner appears :)
>>16057886
what mini van is faster than this
>>16057997
The turbo gaskets are much better than the NA gaskets

they certainly arent, these cars (non sti) will still turn a high 13 second 1/4.

Yes. The WRX will understeer right off a cliff. Don't pretend that it can handle.

>>New type R actually manages to have a more basic rear suspension than the original Civic type R
Honda has shit the bed, new type R is meh, new nsx, meh and the 3cyl diesel engines they're supplying to McLaren are a joke.
Let's be honest, the Focus is the more desirable car unless you REALLY care about fwd in which case you're better off in the not hideous Megane.
>>16057886
>slower than a v6 minivan
So a Ferrari 458, Porsche 918, Nissan GTR, C7 corvette, ect?
As we all know, nothing is faster on the road then a run down minivan.

>posting in an alphonse thread
>>16059810
t. never even sat in one
I have two subarus, one NA and one turbo and neither has an understeer issue. Helps that they have larger (factory) sway bars and limited slip rear diffs, I can't say if the NA ones with an open rear do understeer.
>>16059921
This one
>>16059944
>responding to this garbage thread
I think he older ones were prone to mild understeer but the new ones have brake vectoring wizardry and/or revised suspension. A common mod for an autocross car was a stiffer rear swaybar to make them rotate easier.
>>16059958
How will subicucks recover?
>>16059958
Since when is HP = speed? What's the 0-60? What the quarter?
>>16060025
No replacement for horsepowerpacement
>>16060025
If laptimes = speed, this thing beats the WRX around willow springs :^)
>>16057886
>slower than a v6 minivan
Which minivans have a 5 second 0-60 time?
>>16057886
Rather have an evo t b h but they are basically the same car lel
>>16059958
>>16059966
It also weighs 1,000 pounds more than the subaru so it's still slow as fuck, that HP number means nothing.
>0-60 in 7.3 seconds
slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
>>16060115
But doesn't subie loose hp due to drive train losses due to muh awd
>>16060801
The sienna is also AWD. And even with AWD it's still 2 seconds slower from 0-60 than the base WRX. Sure the FWD version may have a slightly less lossy drivetrain, but you can't launch it for shit because it's front wheel drive, plus I don't think you can get the top of the line engine in the FWD version anyway.
I don't know why this comparison's even being made, it doesn't make any sense because nothing is equivalent except the the amount of horsepower, which means nothing if the other specifications are wildly dissimilar.
>>16060801
Power to weight is literally the only metric that matters
Nice try op, but the slower than a minivan meme applies to the BRZ not the WRX
Just how bad is the Impreza/Crosstrek?
I appreciate the ruggedness and simplicity, but don't need or want that much power from a WRX. From what I understand, the CVT is garbage and prefer the manual, but they are awful as well.

Because unfortunately this isn't /k/-cars edition, its Xbox Live voice chat- cars edition.

Bad. It's made by subaru
>>16060801
Not really, you can change up the torque distribution in the WRX stock
>>16057886
>I'm jealous of nice things and am a giant faggot, the post
>>16062327
Only in the STI.
>>16062371
I'm pretty sure you can on the WRX as well. While its not direct and inuitive on the STi I'm pretty sure you have a manual way of doing it on the WRX. It doesn't make sense that the car is always AWD 50-50 on pavement
>>16062398
I have one, it's definitelys not user adjustable.
>>16062398
Nah, you're wrong. There is no way to adjust where the torque goes on a WRX.

doesn't really make up for being even uglier than the WRX
>>16062319
Early WRX's were known for having weak gearboxes, which is only true if you're launching the thing constantly.
Rev hang = Stupid drive-by-wire dogshit where the throttle stays open a bit longer after you've let off the gas. It's for emissions or some crap (the throttle slamming shut suddenly causes unburned fuel? idk) and pretty much only furthers the case against electronic throttles.
>>16062895
Yeah it's for emissions. Easily tuned away, but then you also open up a chance for a warranty claim denial if something happens to the engine.
