Dont agree with this statement.. Never driven an Integra or Accord Type R


My Escort RS never wore me out, you'd have to be a proper faggot to get tired from driving a FWD with LSD!!
It only pulls the wheel on launch or viscious gear changes, and then its not like you have to hulk up to keep the car on the road FFS!

Eh? Theres absolutely no reasoning to your point..

Thats site bull, half the times on there are wrong

for a start is says the rx7 bhp is 237 and 0-60 is 6.0 <- Cheers

try 280bhp and 0-60 5.0


[Edited on 11-10-2003 by Nismo]


The site is a load of arse, a standard Focus RS 1/4 is more like 14.9 or less.

Only the last RX7's were 280BHP, the previous ones were 255 and 240 depending on the year.

Exactly mate.. LSD on a FWD is a good thing..

I bet there isnt a Corsa on here that could stick with my Integra round the twisties...

Seems to be a lot of bullshit around here!

The Pulsar GTI is quick, but not *that* quick.. Its quick 0-60 because of the 4wd, but after that the 4wd creates drag, hence losing its advantage..

Take for example the Escort Cossie. 1/4mile in 15.1 seconds std..
Then the Prelude VTEC 1/4 in 15.1.

The Cossie does 0-60 in 5.7, the Prelude 6.6.. AFTER about 40 mph the PRELUDE is QUICKER than a Cossie.. as it makes up for the disadvantage of FWD from a launch..

thats a stupid thing to do , as soon as he gets to the bends your money will just side off and fall in a bush somewhere and youve then lost.

a 2l in a nova/corsa are quicker than u think as my m8 kept up with a WRX on the motorway upto about 130, and yes, impreza was trying , but nova lost on the twisty stuff on the sliproad, but point was proven
