Don't mind the WRX and the Skyline, besides from being fully sick maaate.
They are bloody fast, sorry to say but the old falcon motor is a wee bit too sluggish to take them on. It's the civic's and other little crap with drain pipes hanging out the back that really ИИИИ me off.

Been harassed by ricers, or harassed ricers? ;) Most of the time they're too far behind to hear their comments.
WRX's are sloooow, 155Kw stock for MY94-MY98 (on 12psi too), AWD helps off the line, but sucks everywhere else.

I wouldn’t call someone going past you in a faster car ‘harassing’. Stockish Rex’s and R32-33’s are fair game nowhere near as quick as people make them out to be.

Trust me they dont do 14.3's stock when in the hands of your average driver. To get those times from a rex requires a box destroying launch. WRX owners (especialy the ones who have rebuilt a box or two) do NOT launch on the street in the same mannor it takes to run the low 14's they claim. R32's are just pure jokes in stock form, absolute jokes be lucky to run 15.0. 33's will run mid 14's easy as pie, however if you get the jump on them you can hold them quite easly. The above is all from my experences at AIR

the ute cost me 13 000 2 years ago and ive spent just under 6000 on go fast mods since. But to be fair when u think about what they get for their money in mods compared to some of us, it seems both are getting pretty similar performance gains for the money spent.Mid 15secs-low 14s and low 14sec-mid 12secs. Both about 1an a bit sec gains.
I try to be unbiased about these things so when we sit here an bag ricers i think of what they must be saying about us...NAH THEY GOT NOTHIN |

People who drive 'rice' cars think they are one step ahead of you even without racing. I love it when i rev my car and they think im going to go for it, they spin the wheels and speed off down the road, whilst im still making my way slowly from the lights.
