h22a vs wrx

**vti_ek9** · 23-05-2005 01:59 PM

seriously...
i think it's pritty dam hard to beat a stock rex with a good driver in it...

if the wrx driver knows how to launch, a h22a will need serious mods to reel it in on the street (as you dont race 400m on the street). If he doesnt know how to launch then it would take only basic mods.

Ahhhh the good old orange and apples thread.

I own a WRX now.

If you want to beat Rex, buy a Rex.

I have lost to several S2000, and a few Type-Rs.

If you want to beat a Wrx comfortably, id suggest purchasing one of those Honda's.

dude if ya cant beat a stock wrx in your stock h22a you cant drive... talking from experience i would line my mate up (he got his car same time as me) he would get the jump, but by 3rd gear i reeled him in with no probs (off the line) even my other mate with a gt4 celica same deal!!

unless theyre boosted they shouldnt beat ya!

owned a lancer gsr, liberty rs and forester gt all great off the mark but out of puff after about 120kmh.......mate who owns a my99 rex said he raced a accord euro and got him off the line easily but then the euro started reeling him back in after about 120kmh....... a bit more road and he reckons the euro would have got him......he asked me..what engine does that thing have in it cos it goes well..

You wont beat a WRX with a H22a, not in a straight line anyway...
I went up against a 2004 version totally stock, 0-100 Im about 4 cars infront,
100-150 the lead narrows down to 2 lenghts, it passes me at about 190. The WRX had a female passenger and didnt launch but neither did I.

ahaha....a stock h22a would neva beat a stock rex..well not 99 to 05 models...
i dunno about euro's...i should think they go okai...neva seen then go but...
WPN.22R...i dunno how the hell you beat a stock rex with a stock h22a...wat they do 1/4mile stock?....16's?
rexes do low to 14flat stock..
sure u didn't race a rx?

Happy Chatting

Mmmmz... don't rexs require to launch @ 5000rpm for their 0-100 in less then 6 seconds??? man screw launching @ dat rpm.. prefer to have a clutch that works

Ummmz.. H22a, i should drive one one day see how it compares to the 94-98 wrx. aint the newer rexz more powerful//.../,,

easiest way to beat a wrx, let his tyres down :P

You should go and drive one, might answer some of your questions

just to mention that 5th gen ludes have longer gear ratios compared to my 4th gen. it makes a hell of a difference!!

one of the guys 'from the forum' and i done a little umm...'testing' on a highway and one with 5th gen box and other 4th gen... and the difference was really noticable too!

im telling you guys its possible!
