Wrx > Svx
well i finally got a chance to pit my WRX (2002, stock) against my SVX (1992, see mods below)
it was up a hill from a rolling start.. i was driving the WRX and my brother was in the SVX.. we both hit it in 1st gear and i immediately pulled away from him.. shift to second, gained even more ground, and by third gear i just let off the gas and let him catch up.. i guess it was no real surprise that the wrx took the svx, but i didn't expect it to be quite so harsh.. maybe it would be a little different on a flat surface.. |

Don't feel too bad. WRX 4EATs get smoked by WRX 5MTs also. WRX 4EATs can only muster about a 15 sec 1/4 mile at best, and the 5MT can do at least 1/2 second better.
