Cool my GTR @ Bible Creek hill climb
<embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-3258982074973181801&hl=en" flashvars=""> </embed>


sorry about the sound, cheezie digital camera movie...



well with 200whp less, and 1/2 the torque i was able to beat my 500whp STI by almost 2 seconds on the same 2.2 mile course. man We Suby guys are truly missing out on this whole suspension thing... LOL< i thought my STI handled pretty well... well there is no such thing as understreer with Double wishbone suspension...

And this is with 3 blon shocks, and cheezie street tires..... while taking it easy cuase the GTR is a little harder to replace than the STI.

Nice vid, interesting results too. I just cannot believe at 200whp less and 1/2 the tq you yielded these results. Very sick.

shifting with the left hand feels a lot more comfertable IMO.


but i have also come amidextris (sp) since i crashed last year.... so i can do anything with both hands

Yeah. None of my friends would believe me when I told them the used STi that I bought with coilovers and sway bars wouldn't hold a candle to my Prelude that had springs, shocks, and sway bars as upgrades. Not only is the double wishbone sweet but the STi is heavy which doesn't help at all.
