And also, I don't agree w/ 82knightrider. Not all eclipses are pathetic. There is one here that runs a 12.6 in the 1/4. Its pretty sick, and I've seen it dust more than a few thirdgens. Not that I'm proud to break the news to ya.

Hey! I wasn't trying to be a dick. I was just saying that it would have been much easier to read, had there been commas and periods. Nothing against the guy, as far as spelling i don't care as long as I can read it. Take a chill pill man, Relax and take some constructive critisism. Nonetheless, I congratulated you.

. I can guarantee hands down that my car would have wasted yours AFTER I blew the rings. We tested the copression and the numbers went like this. 160 / 145 / 105 / 60. It still smoked the tires in third gear on the way to my parents house (to do the swap) with that kind of compression, not to mention I was having a hard time keeping it on the road at the same time.
Ask and you shall receive, here is me racing my buddies moddified STi. Why all the smoke? I hadn't gotten it tuned yet. After I got it tuned I had 277 whp and 232 ft/lbs at the wheels. No need to PM you, if you're going to try and be a big man and call me out, I've got no problem letting you have it right here:

EDIT: The reason Pasky isn't impressed is because he probably doesn't realize that the camera car is doing 120mph at the end.
P.S. Let's remember who went off topic about this here.

Hey, why don't you come to my house and help me finish my motor swap, I suck *** at working on stuff like that. I hate doing it, so it's just taking up 2/3 of my parents garage with the head off and more stripped bolts than I care to think of.

You don't want me around it then man, im the king of breaking bolts, even grade 10's.

What all needs to be done dude? You should have the rings done already, the head can't be that hard. Rethread that sob, gob some rtv on the bolts and torque those bastards down.

Damn think 8's are 13 second vehicles in the 1/4? What did you just do to it? Last I checked you had a mild cam 3.4 block and spraying a 150.

It seems lately, like eclipse owners cant drive. :P
Yea but its not apples to apples
So not to rain on anyones parade but isn't that a WRX STi versus an Integra. The Integra would have the WRX in a drag race because it has the wieght transfer and lighter drive train. Also How much money did it take to make that 277 horses? Besides drag racing is nice and all but where is the skill involved with it. No prettier site in the world than a Z-28 In a perfect four wheel drift around the outside of those Acura Integra Type Rs.

No skill in drag racing? Spoken like a true amateur. How much did it cost me? Roughly about $3,000 in parts, for the 10,000th time.
Lastly? Drifting?

Everything you said it wrong. The STi would waste me in just about any drag race because of 1) the drive train AWD, and 2) the drive train (the weight transfer is NOT in my favor at all.

it looks like they started from a roll though so weight transfer isn't an issue there
as far as drivetrain those things are still fast either way (the
and even with drag racing there is skill involved
gotta shift and launching can be hell even more so with a peaky Fwd 4 cyl
