Just test drove a subaru WRX

well its capable of low 14's. so i could imagine it hitting 13's with just a couple mods, if not capable in stock form.

JRSC is garbage. I speak from experience.

I am in line at my local Mitsu dealer for the Evo VII. 276HP, 200+lb lighter than the WRX, and a kick ass AWD setup with Active Center Dif and AYC on the rear end. I will be getting rid of the 3KGT for this one.

I test drove the WRX. Extremely sure-footed on launches. Grips on corners, but I don't think it would corner better than an ITR - under most conditions. The ITR LSD provides enough cornering gription and suspension is softer than ITR.

Acceleration is strong once turbo spools up, but quickly flattens out compared to a Honda VTEC. Faster than a stock ITR, but not as fast as a JRSC ITR.

Compared to my previous car: a Mitsubishi 3000 GTVR4 - more responsive, but no match on 0-60, 1/4 mile or top end.

I would buy it. It has modification potential, but I'm sure there aren't as many mod sources as for a Honda.

Those 3000gt/stealths are ridiculously heavy, in my opinion. They make supras feel nimble. . . .
