93 Mazda Rx-7 vs 2002 Subaru Impreza wrx
Well my question is what are the chances of a wrx wining against a rx7.
93 rx7 turbo (auto) stock 51,000 miles
vs
2002 wrx (manual) 14,000 miles
Apexi n1 exhaust
intake removal
KN drop in filter
Tornado fuel saver
*Soon*
Front intercooler

I know more about RX-7's sadly than WRX's hehe...but I'm pretty sure you'll grab the win, actually almost guaranteed unless you miss a shift or something like that. Plus your AWD launch will help out too, hehe gotta love WRX's man...can't wait to get mine!

The Rx 7 stock runs nearly 1 sec quicker to 60 and atleast that much faster in the quarter mile.
I don't believe your mods will overcome that gap.
I am not an RX-7 man either! I love their styling much more than the WRX but a relibility nightmare!

i replied to your other post. You will win for sure. I like rx7's a ton more than wrx's but you will win. If it was a 5speed 7 you would loose though.... Reason being the auto 7's are slow, their 1/4 times are around mid 15's while the 5 speeds run in the mid 13's.

I have vast knowledge of RX7's especially the third genn's. I have a 516rwhp RX7 that has run a best of 10.73@128mph.
With regards to your race. I would say from a roll, it should be close, but on top end he will walk you in the 7. From a stop, you should take him, IF he's stock.

Sorry, my mistake. The rotary engines last for so little time that they HAVE to be replaced by now. And my neighbor only has about 60K on his and his apex seal is doing alright so he still has his oringinal motor.

since you don't know who erniet is i will fill u in. He is a very respected rx7 owner. He attends many drag events and has one pretty ****en quik car. He knows his **** and i totally agree, the reason rx7's get a bad rep is because of dumbasses who mod to much before doing reliabilty mods.
