kevin your an idiot, you wont find any mustang love from me other than svt because it seems they are the only ones that can make mustangs fast these days. however, i got all the love for ls1's and its gonna take a decent amount of modding for your ever so streetable evo to beat an ls1 with equal amount of money in mods. and once you get close, they can just throw on a 100 shot and wax that tight *** of yours drink up boy


by the way, i would have never sold your car for that. nope, not in a million years

STI is pretty fast for a stock car.I personally wouldn't ever buy one but i can't see how you would say it isn't fast.AWD has some real advantages especially on the street as most fwd and rwd cars are not that easy to launch.

Never said it wasnt a fast car. however i hear the same thing from every owner I talk to, weather its an sti or evo. Initial kick out of the hole is promising but after 1st gear, car falls flat on its face and loses pep. now mind you that these cars lose a lot of power on the dyno and are nothing impressive from anything other than a dig in stock form. Oh and on the street, a properly setup rwd car will outlaunch an awd car as power levels get higher

a car that runs 13.0 in stock form is fast, and can touch 11's easy as ----.
They are not that hard to work on. You do have to take out half the things on top to get to anything, but it is not hard, takes time.
Most AWD drivers don't know how to drive the cars, it takes a while to get used to them, it is not like driving a FWD or a RWD.
As long as you learn how to drive it right, it will quick ***, and be a fun car. Same goes for the EVO.
I won't buy one now, I might when the prices go down a little.

It just seems like the site is more and more pro-honda ---- everything else, except for 2 or 3 guys. You get to a point where you are tired of the old looking economy feeling rusted *** hatch, and you want something better. It's called growing up. I still have a 92 Integra to play with, Hondas are great cars, but they are not the only cars out there.

Nice car...I've had my WRX for 2 years now, I love it, it responds good to modifications, I have all the comforts of a midsized car, A/C, cruise control, power everything, and still runs 12's good enough for most cars on the street.

I did blow my transmission, but I knew it was going to happen, it's already replaced. You won't have that problem with the STi.

Add another to that list, I like all cars, heck I'm looking at buying a 1g laser turbo here. I'm not gonna hate, I like most car companies (btw, i see you updated your sig with a new picture of the subbie, looks nice! )

I know there's a few open minded people here.

Thanks.....I thought it was about time to update the damn picture. The old one was probably a year old. It has changed a bit since then

I got into 12's I'm happy with that...for now....I'm working on the suspension now, sway bars, end links, bushings, and I sure as hell need different struts, the factory ones are not cutting it
