Pls i noe u noe all bout rally cars but we are talking about s'pore now where only the 1.6 focus is available... Of cos the ST170 is another breed of its kindOriginally posted by HENG@:ford focus hatch? who u din meet the focus ST170 did u? that packs a punch. and it handles great too.
hmmm i mite agree with u on this one though, not a sprinter from start but once its on the go, it can flyOriginally posted by bcyn:sg dun have the ST170 leh... as of my knowledge.
focus might not have the torque to push u into the seats at 0-60kph.
but it certainly have the punch once its rolling.... say 40-100?
maybe malaysia car leh? and i wonder how come ppl say no ST170? i've seen a couple b4 leh.Originally posted by w2k_83:Pls i noe u noe all bout rally cars but we are talking about s'pore now where only the 1.6 focus is available... Of cos the ST170 is another breed of its kind

There are 4 types of G9 corolla ley .... got 1.5 Auto and manual and 1.6 auto and manual ley .... The 1.6 Manual ones are damn powerful and the 1.5 manual ... they have actually ZERO problem in over taking a 2.0l car anytime, you know?
Maybe that other fella is manual and your friend is auto?
oh yes, with a CR of 11.1, it's good on thatOriginally posted by bcyn:sg dun have the ST170 leh... as of my knowledge.

Oei .... 1.6 liter alot of difference ley ... see when can meet up then ask your friend along ... i drive my dad's 1.6 manual drag with your friend ... then ask 4 big size fella to pack my car ... you ah ... never see never believeOriginally posted by sirlee:I cant believe my own eyes also...
My friend is driving the 1.5 manual (the facelift version).Changes his 1st,2nd,3rd gear at 6400rpm (near red line).4th gear he give up liao.cos that guy too far liao.Abt 6 to 7 car length...Even if he is 1.6 manual also wont have so much difference loh...

What colour is that corolla, is it red? Is the car lowered? If yes to both, then I roughly know what you've met. It is a 2000cc powered corolla with ECU, intake and xos mod. Don't play play with that car ok....Originally posted by sirlee:I cant believe my own eyes also...
