Well, do we got a HP limit? Do we have a rev limit? Come on guys real answers and stuff. The other post with the 694whp GSX was sweet. FWD and me... I'm good with FWD. I might not be the fastest off the line, but I sure as hell can shift. If my GS-T is worth taking it to the max, then an LSD, drive axles, stage 4 or better clutch, and a few weight reductions will be included. I'm not sure what I want, but I do want a decent reputation around my area. If AWD is the only answer, then the GS-T will be the "relaxed" driving car, and I'll see what I can do about a Mitsubishi GTO VR-4 (yes, GTO as in the JDM name) It's too late to ditch the GS-T, for sentimental reasons. 6-speeds are nice, and a 3000GT has always caught my eye. FWD vs RWD comparison. Which is better? And why? A RWD is no AWD, but is it better than FWD by a lot? I know an AWD would smoke a RWD in a race, but a rear vs front, who's gonna win it? Thanks guys
No, there is no defined horsepower limit and you could have a completely built motor with stand alone and wind that fucker out to 10,000 RPM if you pleased but at a certain point you have to take basic laws of physics into account. You can make all the power in the world and shift better than god himself but NONE of that puts power the the ground...none of it. Go look at any FWD street car putting 400+ to the ground at the track and watch it spin all the way first through 3rd gears on slicks. What's the point? You're going to need alot more than an LSD and axles.
And RWD vs FWD? Do you understand what a car goes through when it starts moving? Do you understand the physics involved at all? Weight transfer? Any of this ringing a bell? Do you realize what an inane question that is? If you want your GST to be decent at the track you have to understand what it takes to make a FWD vehicle get out of the hole. Money, time, and a shit-ton of practice. It's an art and a fools errand at that. You have to WANT it and WORK for it.
