at high speeds, theres no replacement like displacement!
another story
one time was out late and ate mcd's before i headed home...
then i saw a couple cars i thought i kenal at a bus stop...
they were both Supras.
so i stopped to say hello... of course we started talking bout cars.
then one of the Supra drivers ajak 'testing'...he had installed a new VVTi engine...stock and was curious
so we went to a long empty stretch of highway (it was 4am...and the other Supra driver sat in my car) and had a rolling start...
first, second, third....
and before i knew it, the Supra was in my rear view mirror! i was laughing inside of course..
and then i shifted to fourth.....this was when i got a shock...the Supra was right next to me!! damned 3.0 litres!
of course by the time we hit 5th gear i pulled ahead a bit before it was time to ease off...
so there you have it, RB26's short stroke is crazy responsive, but when you're up to speed on a wangan... theres no replacement for displacement
