^^^ its so funny seeing ppl talk about their stories and they own all. there could have been something wrong with the type r, ****ty driver, etc etc. there are soooo many variables. just because you saw a type r lose to a b16 one time, doesnt mean if you have a b16 hatch, it will beat a type r. if you look at the numbers and math involved, typically a stock itr will make 175whp + -. a b16 makes 140whp + -. take into account the weight difference of say 300lbs or so and you still have the type r winning. so mathematicaly, the type r would win. like i said, there are a lot of variables that come into play when comparing two cars.

to the OP, i would buy a gsr shortblock and use your head on it, that will yield much better results. then boost it
