wrx vs firebird

[pwnt by pat 10+ year member]

You should race him on a dirt or gravel back road.

If you guys end up racing make sure to get it on film for us.

Make sure you take that beast out of the trunk before you race.

Every little bit helps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

I raced a 5.0L V8 91' Lincoln with my 3.1 V6 95' Beretta it was a tie..... sad but tru

i'm missing the transmission cable that shifts the gears when you punch it

I'm glad you brought this to my attention im going to a junk yard to get that cable right now.

Assuming it has an LS1, it will murder you ...

LS1 is only available in the trans am ws6. firebird v8 = LT1, should be around 280-290hp.

I gotta 2000 mustang gt 5 speed with 70mm tb, k&n, bbk x-pipe, dynomax catback, eibach pro kit springs, air silencer removed, and couple small mods. I raced a 2001 t/a with a ls1, he got me off the line (auto), i hit second and caught em', i went for third and he tried to run me off the road. would have beat him if he would have played fair.

as for beating the firebird, try it if he beats u, so what try again, he is bound to mess up eventually.

I'd bank on the firebird as well. You would probably take him off the line, but there is a slim chance you would win in the 1/4. This kind of reminds me when a sti wrx tried to race me in our 74 Corvette Stingray. He might have had a chance if I was retarded or the Corvette was stock, but that was far from the case. He held with me for about the first 2 gears and then it was "cya *****..." I hit nearly 160 before I thought about what would happen if I lost control and hit something. It's one hell of a rush though. I had to slow down and check my pants.

Camaro had the LS1.

if the TA is 93-97, it's an LT1.LS1's came out in 1998.

He never specified if it was a regular Firebird or a T/A ... nor did he even specify the year (in the 90s was all he said //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif ) ...
If it is an LS1, he has no chance unless the other driver is horrendously bad at drag racing ...

I was just assuming off his response if this was directed at me, if it wasn't, sorry //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i think its like a 95 firebird

 

[Polecat 5,000+ posts]

true, like I said, assumed the info off the 95 statement, but clarified the year break down on engine, depending on year.

Camaro had the LS1.

The camaro SS had the LS1, so did the Trans am WS6.

LS1's came out in 1998.

Gotcha //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

yea if its the LS1 or LT1, your done

i'd say it would be even off the line and then the fbody will just creep past you.

These LT1's are fast!

 

[italianlifter17 10+ year member]

yeah i found out what my friend drives, its just a regular 1997 v6 firebird with dual catback exaust and cold air.

so if he beats me in third I will just have to upgrade my wrx with turboback exaust and cold air intake. and hopefully that will make a difference. should give me around 30 to 50 horsepower.

 

[XDrkmanX 10+ year member]

You shouldn't have a problem beating him if it's only a V6

In your sig it says that you don't own a WRX yet.
