Anyone can build a 8 second car with a fulltime job. Goodjob! My last post in this section on Jsp. Peace.


Why else would you build a car?

Full time job= full time results.

If you're working a part time job then why spend the money on a car for one, and at least start with real upgrades and not cosmetics first.

Why so :mad: ?


My horsepower isn't fake.  I've posted video, timeslips, and dyno graphs.  If my little formula scares you this bad I'd hate to see what you'd have to say if you saw the other stuff I've built and worked on.

3400lbs at 450whp is much faster than your what? 220whp and 2700lbs?

It ran 11's with a little budget heads and cam setup.  Now it's going to run 9's with the 6 speed and have the potential for 8's with an auto swap.  Oh and it turns just fine.  It's not a road course car.  It could be if I wanted it to be but that's not the direction I'm going in.  It had re-valved Bilstein HD's, Brembo blanks w/hawks pads, and the factory WS6 sway bars/springs.  That made for a quite responsive street car.  I'll need more traction than that setup could provide with this new setup.


220whp? More like 130 lol. Those things are slow as shit.

I was giving him a huge benefit of the doubt. I doubt he would even take the Formula on an autocross track.

Hey! Stating facts and making fun are two totally different things!...

And I really can't find anything good about 2.5rs' besides the fact that it was my gateway drug to the subaru world.

The GC 2.5rs is the lightest chassis base. Wouldn't that make it worth building?

Worth building, yes. But built Sub motors are NOT cheap lol

I've seen ones with simple WRX swaps sell for 10k

Judging by the house it's probably a boxster.
