Well I figured you'd be smart enough to know that I have insurance, but since you're not, I do have insurance. The Vermont reference was, because they allow gay marriage. When I want to upgrade I'll look towards Mitsubishi, Audi, BMW or other things in that range.

not stock but modifications are what makes things fun and interesting stock vs stock STI over MS3 any day.. MS3 might get the jump 1/2/3 but after 4th that extra 30ish hp kicks in and the STI will take the lead.. modded ms3 vs sti depends on each ones level of mods.. which is what makes things fun like i said

Awwww he doesn't like us... Too bad. I was actually entertained. All fun aside, bring out a non BT WRX and we'll have a non BT MS3 out. Might as well. No miatas though. Those things are to scary!

LMFAO!!!!
I have had first hand experience with the MZR engine and let me say that they're thin walled engines that aren't meant to be pushed. Posting this sort of thing on a subaru board will get attention BUT let me first say that all the MS3s that I've seen around here in Hawaii aren't fast. When I think of Mazda, I think of RX3, RX7 and Miatas. The "Mazda Speed 3/6" are made by ford motor company.
oh and Dylan likes to start drama so get used to it LOL

depends on your definition of "fully bolted" but i know they start out pretty far apart. MS3 is around 265/280 and STI is around 305/290 so your MS3 is already at a disadvantage in term of power and the difference is likely to go up exponentially depending on the mods. they weigh about the same, trans ratios are about the same, so like i said on paper the STI is still a faster car. now with certain bolt ons you might see some good gains but you can expect the gains to stay consistent on the STI as well. unless i'm missing something?

I agree. *watching from the sidelines*
If its worth anything, I know that out of friendly competition and because we know each other, the Cooper Forum guys and the RX7 forum guys do bash on each other but from a friendly stand point. Just dont let it get out of control due to a few little immature drivers who dont know better.
HIIC > BAIC, just kidding. We all equals
