WTF!? Why don't we get any in Melbourne?!

All this waiting and teasing...got blue balls?!

davey90 05-03-2012 09:27 AM

OH WOW! Bella Vista! You reckon they're test driving?

Sorry to change topic. Didn't want to make another new topic on the sub forum, it'll only be short.

I was reading about the Hyundai Veloster Turbo putting out 155KW (approx 207BHP) on news section of Carsales.com.au. You reckon 86 and flush the Veloster out? I doubt the 86 can flush Veloster on the straight, but as a circuit, 86 will run circles around the Hyundai i reckon. not sure if its FWD,RWD or AWD, just glanced at the article. I reckon some minor tuning on the 86 can beat the Veloster.

70NYD 05-03-2012 07:52 PM

Veloster is a fwd, so I think the turbo model will be as well
I don't know if it will beat it in a straight even, the velsoter is quoted as being 2800lb while the 86 at 2700(average between the gt and gts)
Suspension wise in going to say 86 will be a MUCH better setup and will handle in a different league all together since the emphasis of the ft86 was and still is handling if I'm not mistaken
Thing to remember, power to weight is more important than pure power alone. Lower weight also means your car(if setup properly) can change direction much faster as well :)
