TII vs celica and 2004 STI
well this happen no more than a month ago, first race was with a celica gt-s. i was on the freeway and i noticed on the back mirror a car cutting into traffic trying to get to me so being a good sport i slow down lol, after he gets next to me he stayed at the same speed so i figure he wanted a shot, we slow down and waited for traffic to clear, once it did we wot, i wot in 3rd gear and start pulling fast, beat him by a good 4 cars or more, he gets next to me again and says that's a good car, i have a rotary shop you should write my number, i have whatever you want, strut bars,turbos,rotors,engines,swaybars etc. lol so i wrote the number and he gave me a thumbs up and we went our separate ways, cool guy. now with the STI, first of all this sti owner was talking to me one day and he ask me what i had on my car, i said a couple of thinks but not everything, he then asks me what whp i was looking for and i replied not less than 300whp, then he looks at me and said, your gonna need a lot more than that to catch me( you know typical sti and evo owner pride) i didn't run that day because i was going to tune my car. i went to the dyno and dynoed 280whp and couldn't keep going cause the turbo went boom, so i had to get to my home and put the stock turbo again until i fixed or buy a new big turbo. well a month or a little more had pass since that and i was getting out of my home and to my surprise i look on the rearview mirror and the sti was behind me getting closer. he gets besides me and ask if i wanted to run, im still on stock turbo cause i haven't bought another turbo but i didn't care, i said to myself ''let's see if this guy is as fast as he says'' so i agree. we go from a 1st gear roll, he honks 3 times and i get the jump, to my surprise i stayed all the way to 4th gear in front by only a fender, i started laughing inside my car telling to myself "im on stock turbo running 10psi and only with 210whp and i beat this supposedly sti beast". he asks for a second run i agree. he honks 3 times and we go, he gets the jump this time but we were side to side trough 2nd gear then i miss 3rd gear dammit lol. i ask for a last run and he agrees. we roll from 1st gear again, he honks 3 times and we wot, i stayed beside him until i slam 2nd gear, then he starts pulling, slam 3rd and he stays only a car ahead by the end of 4th gear. (maybe he has a boost controller and hit hiboost???) it was a fun race but man if i would've gone with the other turbo i would've slaughter him, a rematch is coming and with my new turbo so is gonna be fun. At the end of the story his supossedly beast was just a pussycat lol i would've love to see his face on the first race, it must've been priceless.:lol:
