last night, i ran my friends 05 wrx, we did 1/4 mile, it was pretty close, i would usually lose by half a car length. I think it is due to my car weight, 04 camry se v6-3400lbs? compare to his wrx at 3000lbs, the power of both engines are bout the same wrx-227hp @6k, 217 @ 4k, while mine is 225 hp @ 5.6 k, 240 lb.-ft. @ 3.6k. So i was wondering are there any mods out there yet for the 04 camry se v6-3mzfe?
got search? you can ask toysrme iaobut turboing :P luckynumber5's cam goes hard, mcelligot's 3vz whoops ass too :P try teh search for "3vz"
and that wrx shoudlve killed you (after 1st gear) if it was launching properly or even 1/2 properly.
you stick or auto?

What? Lose by half a car between your camry and the WRX? It's either Subaru is wrong with their 1/4 timing, or someone's isn't shifting it fast enough. Either way, good show!

He said SEV6....which is auto of course. V6 Camrys only have auto available. Sad, because the new 2005 Tacomas 4x4 V6 have 5-spd manuals. They should try for the V6 Camrys next?
Hmmm..not from a dead stop. If driven properly a WRX can rip a 0-60 in just 5.3 secs whereas a Camry V6 has a 0-60 of 7 secs flat. Although, WRX falls flat after 75-80 mph since it does not have a top end you can take a WRX from a roll on the highway where they are as slow as a dog off boost, but not a chance from a deadstop.
