I was pretty pumped that I got to open the stang up though, its plenty powerful at 100+

that GT500 gave me wood.

This engine is capable of 180+ EASY.

There's a guy in Germany that has done 174 on the GPS but shut the car down because of traffic.

Yeah thats the main reason I stopped at 130, there was a gradual curve ahead and someone in a 3 series was blocking the passing lane. I was going to record a video of my 160 run but I was recording with an iphone and decided that i'd need both hands on the wheel. I dont plan on taking it any faster than that on the stock rubber. BTW, you gotta admit, that exhaust sounds sick.

I wish we had an autobahn here so I could do top-speed runs without worrying about legality.

2 out 3 current/former red z owners confirm.

You bastards.

Red__Zed · 09-25-2011, 11:09 PM

ahhhh....good to be back in the stang.

It's really funny driving the WRX after having been in the Stang. While I had the Z, I thought of the WRX as a torque monster....now it feels like it has no balls

Mine has no torque right now. I have a monster exhaust leak at the x-pipe/cat connection. Sigh. Either the H pipe is going back on or I'm driving to the shop to have it welded.
