What caged GE8 and not to be a Richard, but it would need to be gutted to make up for the big boy. :P Or was that some sort of inside joke?

I really thought that Impreza wagon was going to lose it, driver was far from smooth with his/her inputs behind the wheel.

Yes I was debating to slow down and "battle" with the Impreza since it was the last run of the day, but I could see the rough driving from my rear view mirror and decided to keep my distance, sadly my friend in the GE8 was trapped :/ lol

A Fit looks super slow when EVOs and S2000s are present to rub it in our faces, lol.

Im comparing it to how mine is. But then I have a 6inch velocity stack tapering to 2.5 inches, colder plugs, oil catch can to prevent random detonation, and run higher octane.


It doesnt sound like much, but my car pulls through 3rd pretty good.

my 205/60/15s are only 0.2 inches shorter according to the online miata tire calculator.

I dont think that is a big enough difference. But maybe it is, I havent really ever compared my GE8 directly to another one locally, at least one modified.

I think stock diameter is 24 inches compared to my 24.7 inches, and my car didnt really have a noticably different feel.

My stock 15s were 175/65/15s i think
