If an Rx-7 (93- and up_) T turbo would race a stock wrx no question it would inded destroy a wrx...THE BIG QUESTION IS HOW AND WHEN DOES AN RX EVERY RUN RIGHT THEY ALWAYS RUN LIKE ABSOLUT GARBAGE AND THERE MOTORS BLOW EVERY OTHER MONTH..THERE ARE CRAP AND WILL ALWAYS BE CRAP..BESIDES THE LOOKS THE RX'S R WORTHLESS

i'm sry but you guys are ****en idiots. Rx-7's look perfect. And about them being unreliable is so lame. The only reason they get that rep is because of dumbasses who over mod before upgrading the ecu. Anyways back to the topic, 1/4 mile it would be close, maybe a tie. The only reason is because of the wrx's low gear ratio. If it was a freeway race, say bye bye wrx.

i know that a rx7 would take a wrx anyday. they also have superior handeling just like the wrx. and power is made easy. even though its a rotary motor. the guy who came up with it was a genius. like tk5dan said, its people who dont know how to do it rite screws it up the car. and one thing the rx7 does have that its no excuse is that they tend to overheat a lot.

I'd go for FD3S over USDM WRX.
yes the 13B is disposable motor but I heard Mazda sells it cheap to replace.
I never liked FC3S so I'd take any year Impreza rather.

FD3S vs new JDM STi .... It's tough decision to me.
