 we don't need to go there, are you a owner? this has to be a apples to apples comparison stock for stock with equal cars, mods to keep up are not the same because it turns into a pissing match so whats the point.

im sorry if i offended any previous owners here..but the Z is just way out of the WRX's league in terms of engineering...im on iwsti.com btw..a common complaint is lack of steering feel, body roll and a fairly fragile 5spd...now all you guys are putting up modded wrx's smokin 370z's..thats great and all but again you guys have to be modded and tuned to keep up with a stock car...suspension upgrades, tranny upgrades, tunes, barely legal downpipes and exhausts..etcetc...btw its safe to say that the 370z is near the top of its tier when it comes to performance in its price range..the wrx on the other hand has competitors like the MS3 and the Cobalt SS...
to the fellow that said the Z was an econocar...it isnt...its always been a sports car..ever since its birth...the wrx...not as much..so chill |

Hmm you dont know what size turbos etc. He could just be baiting you with the 350hp remark so you would think "oh we are close in hp" etc. I will bet he will beat you pretty good especially from a dig. If it were me Id do it just for fun. My ego aint ever been wrapped up in my car. Have a friendly race and post the results.

That car will probably smoke you, to be honest just enjoy your car.

This thread is right about where it should be.
Three full pages of arguments over which car is faster or more refined blah blah blah. Reminds me of 7th grade. I'm going to head back over to that "age of 370" owners thread and make sure I'm still in the right place.
