Bit of a childish question really just my mate just bought a porshe 911 Carerra convertible MY91 and I was wondering what would be the quickest that or
MY94 WRX Jap Import
Full HKS EX
AVO TMIC
K&N
Running Just over 1 bar Boost.

Cheers its just he has been taking the piss saying I will tow you, all the usual badgering tactics.
Cause if I know it will beat it I will race him and shut the fooker up if not I would prefer the torment of possible scooby whipping lmao :)
BHP may help also i.e what the Porshe is supposed to be and what mine is roughly pushing out.
cheers guys.

Your wip his ar$e. If you don't then you need a faster car :D

Adam

lol cheers mate I am gonna wind him up tonight for a change :)

He has 250 bhp and 2WD, it'll be closer than you think.

Just make sure you dont fluff your start!

If it's at higher speeds, don't count your chickens.

Cheers, so if his is 250BHP what do you think mine is pushing out cause they are 260bhp std witha add ons 300bhp ?
Higher speeds yeah 3.6ltr no chance, I would say looking at short strip race.........not on a road of course because thats illegal :)

Remember that your's is only 260bhp on 100 Ron fuel. If you are using 97 Ron i.e Super Unleaded you might be pushing out 245ish or less.

leave the spare wheel + toolkit at home, not a lot of fuel and some octane booster ;)

You'll also have higher drivetrain losses, i.e. he could be putting down more power to the wheels.

don't forget 94 wrx's only had 240ps NOT 260 on 100RON
Just make sure you race him in the wet :D

Had a play with one of these. Accellerating off roundabouts up to 70ish theres nothing in it. I've got a 95WRX with very similar mods to yours.

Guy at work has same car. Yesterday evening had a little play going home from work. We came out of a tight bend so I stayed well behind (about 6 car length’s) coz I didn't want him to put it in the wall.
Up to 60/70 I was closing the gap (MY96 UK Turbo approx. 240 BHP), once at 90 his car just left me, felt like I was going backwards.
He was impressed how quickly my car closed him down and I was impressed how quick his car is from 80/90.

I am running optimax with Castrol octane boost so more or less 100RON I think.
I will just have to make sure I get good start and race him 0-100 then by the sounds :)
cheers for opinions guys.

had a play with one of these in the STI-8 PPP and it lost but its a pretty good car and to be honest the scoob wasn't pulling away to dramatically either, and the scoob is running 300bhp

This should not be about straight line speed (I am sick to death about all these f'ing threads about which is faster a Scoob or a Harrier Jump Jet?)!!!!

I just came off the Don Palmer Creative Car COntrol course where a guy had one of these 911's and I was running my UK standard MY97 Turbo, fitted with Eibachs and 215/40/16 F1's, and the Porsche could NOT go through the course as fast as I could, the entry speeds into the chicanes were considerably faster in the Scoob, despite the fact that of course the Porker got up to a higher speed in the approach.

End of story.

wach you dont burn the cluch on the start, scooby,s have plastic one,s funny thing is they never smell of burnt plastic, weird, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Like canuck said-
Straight line speed is one thing.
Get him on the twisties and it will be a different story;):D:D

If your's is silver you have a better chance.

And if you have gold wheels, he will have no chance. lol.

I used to have a 210bhp 306 GTI-6 and raced a carera 4. There was nothing between us really, so I would imagine your scoob will be the aprox the same.

Get a TypeR/A, then you can take the piss out of him all you like. I can vouch for this as I have upset 2 carera owners with mine.

I'd quite fancy my chances against a Harrier Jump Jet. Their 0-60 times aren't that impressive and their RWD doesn't help on the hairpin bends. :D

In a straight line after the first quarter of a mile you could be in trouble though.
