Ford TX3 Turbos Are Snails and R32 GTSTs are FAST
Monday Arvo, Red one.. Saw an A/F ratio gauge on the A pillar so I thought I give it a go, he was a kid, so cool  pretending like nothing is gonna happen LOL.. Lights go green and off I went and owned him from off the line .. My GF told me she him giving me a thumbs up after the race when he overtook me.. Such a gracious fella...
----------
On the Eastern, I had 4 on board including me and I took on the R32 GTST, I could keep up with him and edged up towards him from third gear onwards till redline and changed to fourth... After the race, he told me he's got FMIC, Boost controller, BOV and pod... and boy his BOV was loud and sweeeeeet! He got 3 persons on board... so fair handicap :P
Like I said before, Turbos are faster off the line, but the Euros.. with the high RPM and speed.. we EUROs catch up  .. Thanks to our short ratio

Euro has a K24 yeah?? Fair effort dude R32's are pretty decent for starting in old 89. This coulda been newer but they are still wearin on.
Good to hear the Euro family car has a bit of balls in it

Onya Nick! Fair enough going hard off the line - but take it easy on your top speed!!! Red line in 3rd!!! You crazy mother - that must be 160k/ph
The last thing you want is to be without your licence.... poor Euro will be very lonely.

ive hit 190k's in my EG5 in 4th..hmm

yeah same here da1nONLY 130ish in theird 170ish in 4th then limit.
Ummm the TX3 is hardly a race hahahahaha. If your pretending nothings gonna happen, why would he launch on you? hahahaha.
But yeah even if he tried you'd have owned him, unless he had the 1.8 turbo with like 130/135kwts. they're quick little beasts.

My apologies - you must have been well within the speed limit then!!! hehe
What does 3rd gear max out in the Euro?? I can get to 100 in 2nd - I know that much...

When I redlined on third, it hit close to 140 max.. that's when I get closer to the Skyline's butt :P

The TX3 is gay, you can whip em even if there got a turbo with a stock B16a,
3rd gear in a B16a2 CRX should be good for 160 4th gear redline is good for 200. I only know this coz I jacked up my car and reved it to see where the gears maxed out. I would never do such crazy things on a public road.
