Yeah, the R is quicker than the STI off the line... but once it gets going, the Sti walks away.... until you get into the corners. R wins, hands down. Highly entertaining... R makes power until 9200rpm, Sti has torque..., doesn't seem to make much power beyond 6000rpm. R feels like its ready to explode, Sti is silky smooth.

Have you ever toke them both to the same race track (not drag) and try to see how they both fair? If so what was the difference in performance since the R is damn near race ready and im guessing the STi is stock.
.02 is Every1 getting the BBS silver rims. I hardly see Gold anymore.
