I lapped quicker than a 911 and Focus RS, among others in a Clio 200 Cup in 2011.

I don't get what point you keep trying to make with your dragstrip times against other cars.

Individual driver skill, I'm pitting a plethora of car times against each other inc manufacturers claims.

Via hard facts there's no denying the WRX is a far faster car than the STI. Even when the STI has as 20% extra power.

Fat Thomas, you do realise that this isn't 'your' site. Everyone is allowed to have opinions without the fear of being harrassed by you every sodding time.

At first it was a little amusing, now it's embarrassing to have someone like you in this community.

Back off and let other members have a discussion for once.
Well said, not sure Subaru's have the best of reputations as is.

Why say you need 400 bhp in a newage sti to get in the 12's?
You are talking bollocks, a standard STI with 3 passengers hasn't got a chance of doing 12.x

Though the 400bhp claim was made only several months after his 12.8 pass.

Legend!

You claimed after your run 400bhp was needed for 12's and fawor came on to back up that you had 430bhp, you then messed up and provided a 2012 dated dyno print out claiming it was mapped/dyno'd in 2013 but it only showed that you didn't have stock power in 2012. A printout that ironically worked out at 430bhp @fly

My mate's Subaru 360>tom's 430bhp STI

...and an increase in OE power 250/245, stronger pistons to support 400bhp, different cams, STI interior/exterior styling, 25kg lighter (120kg lighter than STI LMFAO)...

This beats all STI's imho.

Lol, the pattern is everywhere.

For 2001 there was bad news for Japanese WRX fans. The new style Japanese WRX model is no longer fitted with the 280hp EJ207. The EJ207 is now reserved for and only produced in STI form. Too many stock 1999-2000 WRX cars were trashing STI cars at the stop light, running the STI owner's image. So, the 250hp EJ205 became the basis of the standard Japanese market WRX and the export engines from 2001 on.
The WRX will always be detuned now as it's just so badass. Even in 2009 the stock WRX started obliterating the STI. Things had to change again.
