Subaru BRZ vs........ Land Yacht

**MrPoopyButthole** · 09-30-2014

Lets be honest, people won't admit it, but Subaru boxer engines since 2002 have complete and utter garbage. Head gaskets, rod bearings, leaky valve covers....

....and I'd be willing to bet these N/A high power boxer engines can't withstand boost for 100k miles...hell even 25k miles.

I have enough friends with boxer engines round here, at least once a year they are pulling the motor because XYZ broke. Now Subaru in the 90's that was fantastic stuff.

That is what I am guessing is going to happen as well.

you would think my car that has a little exhaust noise and the pillar pods and the gtp badges some nerd in a frs wouldnt even try but nope.........

I swear its the color that lures em in haha!

I wouldn't say they are over rated, they never claimed to speed demons, where they excel is the handling department and giving the sensation of having to work and row the gears for the feeling. We have this insane obsession with seeking the greatest power level, when really the most fun you could ever have is with an underpowered car that makes you work for that sweet spot in the corners.

Cmon dave lets be real for a minute......... How many people run a road course on here? Im willing to bet only a handful, however we do ALLLLLLL have stop lights.......

And stop lights are just practice because racecar......

Wait for it ....... Wait for it ....... GREEEEEEENNNNNN!!!!!

**SnowTh1ef** · 09-30-2014

**16MustangVet** · 09-30-2014

Bahaha yeah. Camaro will do redonkulous burnouts when its back together on basically the same setup you have.. because sh1tty no name all seasons that were on it when I bought it. I give them a week to live when its running...

**16MustangVet** · 09-30-2014

that will be a retardedly fun Camaro that should surprise plenty! Once engine is done I suggest k member and traction help. Because sh1t and get can embarrass cars making a lot more HP.....

The Motec alone is worth more than any 3800 turbo kit, so that one isn't exactly fair game.

I have an issue..I've even raced with the trailer hooked up. Badassgtpgirl and highoctane were on board for that one...lol

Done that... I rolled all over a Taco Prerunner while towing the 24' Sunline with the red EssEssEss... Pissed off redneck.

Holy medusa mess of exhaust pipe on the beemer kit

**eyelobes** · 10-08-2014

was nice though. Throwing a $400 piggyback in it and putting 50/50 e85 on a stock car for about 85-90 extra whp. Don't know why more tuning companies can't make auto-tuning like bergertuning, 2-3 3rd gear WOT runs and your car was tuned...
