Yup. Inline-4 has better performance compared to boxer-4.

This is just like mustang vs Camaro and I feel the same for both. The wrx and mustang are catered toward the street. Evo and camaro/firebird are more focused on track.

They arent, they make them so on purpose as to get people to buy evo's because they know that speed is the only important thing in a car... There are other tidbits but speed is n1(that includes handling as with poor handling there is no speed) with comfort breathing down its neck in n2...

@unknownally 10 лет назад

The Subaru doesn't use a computer driven differential, it's mechanical. The transmission sits closer to the driver and rear differential distributing the weight better. The axles are more equal lengths, therefore more grip on rally courses and less tq steer. This is what's great about symmetrical AWD. You're supposed to dive the nose in to compensate for the under steer. That's how you drive a Subie. Watch WRC and see for yourself.

@unknownally 9 лет назад

Update: that's how you drive in Rally. Tarmac you would have to try not to brake hard, so the load doesn't go too far to the front wheels, or throttle too much so the load doesn't go to far to the rear wheels. Basically, you have to keep the car balanced.

@Simon74 8 лет назад

Right, both of these cars aren't made of a wide open track like this one.

@MichaelSeeds 6 лет назад

@UntamedMotors 13 лет назад

I like STI's a lot, but it seems to me that EVERYONE has one... Kinda played in my opinion (I know as if anyone asked for my opinion...) After a year of debating and saving $, I think I've finally decided to go with the Evo... More unique and from what I hear better overall... Im not writing this to get anyone riled up for any reason... and YES I know they each have their perks... just Evos seem to have more.

@Smennyboy 12 лет назад

It's a Mitsubishi. They hold together pretty well. Sadly, because it is such an awesome car, and really cheap for what you get, they often end up with owners that give them a good trashing. Either way, well worth it as a daily drive if you ask me.

@flamethrower824 9 лет назад

evo rules best rally car ever

@MrThegenral1 8 лет назад

Evo's are the daddy

@oldfashionedwrx3574 11 лет назад

the 4g63 handles more boost because it is an iron block, the sti uses a aluminium block, which creates better handling as the nose is lighter where the evolution is more nose heavier. an iron block is the engine you want for a lot of boost, the 2jz is an iron block, none of the boxer engines came as an iron block. the evolution is easier to drive.. I've seen too many rally sprints, tarmac rallies and neither is superior

@rngd311 14 лет назад

understeer is when the front wheels have less traction than the rear and cause the car to not be able to follow the line through the corner, and oversteer is when the rear tires cannot follow the path of the front tires and it throws the rear to the outside of the corner

@JasonisDomo 10 лет назад

Mitsubishi is perfect for the track and speed, but the Subaru is perfect for the way home and driving everyday. That's my opinion.

@tuck234 10 лет назад

Hmm... Interesting opinion, but an opinion none the less. I consider the Subaru more of the car that is used to driving tough terrain like most rally circuits than your typical urban sedan. But if you mean in general, then... Not quite. Both have plenty of models for you typical day-to-day driving, even standard models of the Lancer and Impreza.

Its all urban myths, the subaru engine is mounted too far forward and is actually mounted really high. Even the best Subaru’s understeer as a result unless they have had the engine moved back or run electronically controlled diffs like the rally cars

No, they're better off road, which is where they are actually meant for. And they have better interiors. I just wish they fixed that understeering problem.

Neat thing about subarus is that they will naturally oversteer on everything besides dry pavements. Dry pavements give it under steer, but it's manageable. Wet pavement can cause a lot of sudden understeer at low speed sharp corners in my car.

I didn't ask what it was made out of, I know the comparisons. I was simply stating a huge difference in what they can deal with stock. The difference goes beyond that. The 4G63 has better characteristics overall. I have an iron 4 banger too, but it's not in the same league as the 4G63. It's arguably a more capable motor out of the box . You may have seen a good amount of rallys, but look at track course times in stock cars, they tell a different story, and it's not about them being equal...

Depends what his background in racing is. A rear wheel drive GT racer is not going to be able to handle an AWD car. A rally driver can handle an AWD best.
