Ok...since we know how the FT compares to a Miata and S2k...what about this (it hasn't been mentioned yet):

stock FT vs stock S13/S14 (both with SR engines, but stock)

stock FT vs stock S13/S14 (both usdm KA engines, stock)

This would be a good comparison I think yes? ....since they weigh very similar, both FR rwd, and also make the same power (SR anyways).


But...I had an S13 with swapped SR, more than 10 years ago. All I remember it handled like sht lol - even though it was supposedly light, it felt sloppy, heavy and sways like crazy. Felt like a cadilac more or less. No where as precise, nice and nimble as my prior EG before that. I've test driven the FT...all I can say is Wow, when I drove it. The FT reminds me of the tight'ness, lightness and precise nimble feel of my old EG, but with rwd like an S13 ....so that said, I assume the FT will smoke the ish out of a stock SR S13 on the track, correct??
