R32 Gtr, Wrx

[gtr-ned]

hey guys

just wanted to know, what would be quicker stock.

an r32 gtr or a wrx (but not sti)

thanks.

[gotRICE?]

Your kidding right?

An Integra would be quicker than a stock WRX.

[eightsixboy]

The GTR would absolutely rape the wrx, wrx's arn't 'that' quick anyways.

[NISSAN GTR]

lol. rexies are slow in comparison , i owned both but sti , r32 still quicker

[DC33VN]

lol uv come to the wrong forum for that question

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

It like going on a Holden forum and saying what engine is better? RB or LS.

Stock for stock, the R32 GTR would have the upper hand, but both cars can be highly modified.

I heard if you add a 7" muffler back, HKS SSQV, and a giant wing, that WRXs lay down like, 2x the power of any GTR ....

I heard if you add....that WRXs lay down like, 2x the power of any GTR ....

you hear a lot lol

lol i hear that aswell,,,,, lol

Current model WRX or older model?

I've owned both (94 wrx) and the GTR wins hands down in all departments.

[warps]

Depends.

Around a wet racetrack on a track day I did a few years ago, the WRX's killed everything else - including 2 modded GTR's (both Rexes were MY02 models, one stock).

Current Rex is pretty quick, and probably quicker around a track than an R32, but in a straight line I think the GTR might still beat it. Just coz the REx is ugly don't make it slow.

stock for stock, straight line, Subaru WRX vs R32 GTR

GTR /

Evidenced here back in 1990 in Australia when the roadtest cars were running low 13's....show me a WRX that has managed that.

Way to many variables at a 'wet' track day to be viable comparo

Is that it? Too much trouble. What I heard was for every stick you have on the rexy, you'll get an extra 5awkw.

School holiday still on?

Hah!

GTR pretty much raped the competition.

[gotRICE?]

Itd be good if the list actually had a WRX in it seeing as it was the question.. bet still fun to read.

Why?

What was the poster actually asking? Straight line? around a circuit? I still think that normal drivers on a normal track (wet or not - the cars were sharing the same conditions)gives a far better representation of overall performance than 1/4 times (unless you are one of these people who can't handle corners and only care about straight line acceleration).

In the dry, the GTR and modded WRX were neck and neck in times, with the stock WRX (and first ever track day for that particular WRX driver) about a second off the pace. Given the GTR had over 450hp at the wheels, I think I can safely say that the stock WRX would have come close to a stock GTR's times, if not beaten them (it was hosing modded R33 GTSt's - wet and dry).

Current model WRX and a stock GTR - no contest. The WRX would kill the GTR around a racetrack - specially if the race consisted of more than 5 laps. But then what would you expect from a 20 year old Datsun?

GTR's are great cars, but c'mon guys - let's be realistic here.

Exactly!

No point comparing the 2.

If you want to compare a R32 GTR with a WRX, it got to be the first generation models = GC8A (11/1992-9/1993) / GC8B (10/1993-8/1994) / GC8C (9/1994)

Compare the new WRX with the new R35 GTR.

[gotRICE?]

Compare the new WRX with the new R35 GTR.

Ohhh snap!

[Nic_A31]

Compare the new WRX with the new R35 GTR.

That's an even worse massacre for the WRX to march itself into.
