Whats quicker

[GPRIM]

Mazda 323 4x4 turbo or a 172

Straight line? Possibly the 323 if modded

bends? 172 of course...

seconded, them 323 turbos are rare as rocking horse sh*t but quick especially if modded

I got beat by a 323 on Thursday but I didnt think he was going to go for it so stayed in 4th under 3000rpm - not the best place to accelerate from when he booted it i was slow to realise - when I got going I closed on him until the traffic - it was nippy what ever model of 323!

friend just bought 323 for 3k and says my 172 wouldnt stand a chance, not sure if its moded or not but he says its 160bhp

Take him down some of your favorit lanes for a blast, and watch him head towards the scene of the accident as you cruise off into the sunset!

 

[geoff_clio182]

no come to think of it micheal schumachers ferrai would be hard to beat.

theyre 135 bhp standard 1.6 turbos. If its got 160 i presume its been chipped with exhaust etc? It will probably have you off the line with 4x4 etc, but rolling start should be quite similar. Dont know how much they weigh, but probably quite heavy with the 4x4 even considering the size being not so big........

Speaking of Porsches, is a Boxster quicker than a cup?

 

[Simon172]

just found out they weigh 1210 kg. So with 160 bhp thats 132 bhp per tonne....

EDIT -hmmm, i think i got this all wrong! just read elsewhere http://www.323gtr.nu/eng/http://www.323gtr.nu/eng/ that it houses a 1.8 turbo with about 187 bhp. Thats the 323 GTR by the way. They also do a GTX which maybe the 1.6 turbo? im confused.......

Unless Montoya decided to drive round the outside of him

he he he!! and yep a boxter is quicker than a cup.

 

[007]

Dunno but the one I raced was nippy - Maybe a touch slower than my Williams but not much!

 

[Pugboy]

erm, disagree kind of, old boxter slower, new one faster than cup, either way its a hairdressers car, but a nice hairdressers car!

i "raced" a normal boxster the first day i bought my car and it was pretty evenish. He was a nutter tho and i wasnt used to my car etc (allegedly running it in) and he took some 50 mph bends at some controversial speeds........they do handle....

a Boxster S is another kettle of fish.
