Ya, I have seen this. Its crazy squeezing out 400 ponies from a 4 cans, even if it is turbocharged.

Read about the FQ-400 in several magazines but didn't realize it's abilities until I saw the video myself. Sick!

that's a 4 actually... (cool sig, by the way!)


Pretty incredible, seen that vid before while lurking on NASIOC forums... lots of heated discussion over it. Say what you want but the car is a mechanical masterpiece

If not for the luxury, looks, and creature comforts of the G, I'd be all over Evo or an STI... but that's a discussion for another thread happening somewhere else on this board right now, lol

$70,000 for that ugly turd? Sure that performance is awesome but unfortunatly I don't do 170 mph or take turns at 3 g'2 on the way to the grocery store. And its still a ugly 4 door. I guess I don't understand. Mitu. should develope a better looking car to put all that performance in. For that kind of $$$, I would be sporting a porshe camen and still have money left over. Stands out alot more than a lancer that starts at $14000. Not trying to dogg you rally guys, just not my cup of tea.

^ + 1, If I had the money for a side 'toy' car, that'd be the car Id buy. But unfortunately, my G35 is my daily driver and is hell of a daily driver, theres no way I could drive that 4door box thing on a cold morning. That Evo is basically a $15,000 Motor, $7,000 suspension, the rest is just ugly sheetmetal to cover that sh*t up.
