dunno where you get the idea fromOriginally posted by duncanryuu:I am driving a Lancer 1.6. Did minor mod to the car. Easily outrun any TS out there. As TS is 4WD, power is spread across 4 wheels. Unlike Lancer FWD.
Cornering must use very good brake meh? tot cornering use engine brake..Originally posted by n0x:only thing good about impreza is 4wd... but then its not like it has 1000Nm of torque and requires treaction to all 4 wheels.... though stable drinks like hell.... weigh the pros and cons.. not as if u gonna corner at 80km/h.. then again dun think u can make that corner with those rear drum brakes
lancer is good looks only... hao kan bu hao chi... SOHC old engine cmi... not really very efficient.. or most powerful of its class.... cvt smooth transmission... but critisized heavily for its lack of power by the ignorant... comes with rear drums to spoil ur sporty looks....
imho... both are shyt.... consider other cars.....
then why top end cars dun use drums?Originally posted by Darren79:Cornering must use very good brake meh? tot cornering use engine brake..
naturally speaking, one considers his budget before shortlisting a few cars to compare. in this case, impreza & lancer. i don't understand why you have to use 'shyt' to describe what others know what they want already.Originally posted by n0x:only thing good about impreza is 4wd... but then its not like it has 1000Nm of torque and requires treaction to all 4 wheels.... though stable drinks like hell.... weigh the pros and cons.. not as if u gonna corner at 80km/h.. then again dun think u can make that corner with those rear drum brakes

because top end cars need better braking capabilities to match their better performance.Originally posted by n0x:then why top end cars dun use drums?
hmm... ya i admit i sounded a bit crude....Originally posted by Theatre Of Dreams:naturally speaking, one considers his budget before shortlisting a few cars to compare. in this case, impreza & lancer. i don't understand why you have to use 'shyt' to describe what others know what they want already.
u are right on the spot.. so when one doesnt need top end performance one doesnt really need 4wd... so much so that it is at a heavy expense on fuel... with such a good drivetrain but without a good set brakes to complement is quite a waste...Originally posted by Theatre Of Dreams:because top end cars need better braking capabilities to match their better performance.
but we're talking about a commoner's real world scenario, a commoner's choice of common cars with a common budget, common performance that doesn't require top end braking capabilities.
yep its alrights...Originally posted by Theatre Of Dreams:haha ok sorry for my overreaction.
ya personally between the 2 i'll pick lancer for it being 10k cheaper and more frugal on fuel. if i'm particular, i can use some of these savings to improve the brakes and the suspension. but, i'll never ever spend it on wasteful styling mods that will make myself an evo wannabe.
yea vios is a purposeful addition into this range too. it's not so popular for nothing. but precisely because it's so popular, threadstarter wouldn't have overlooked it. perhaps he's not considering it due to reasons like space constraint, made-in-thailand?
