Subaru Impreza WRX STI Cosworth CS400 VS Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X FQ400 w/ DRAG RACE

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

What is the most difficult motorsport question in recent times...? There's a good chance the burning question, especially motorsport related, is which car is better out of the Subaru Impreza and Mitsubishi Lancer EVO.
This video tries to show you how special both cars are, and indeed how close they are in every way with these ultimate AWD cars - with a light hearted drag race
Which is better for you the Evo or the Scooby (Subie)?!
Paul Woodman and Tiff Needell take out the Subaru Impreza WRX STI Cosworth CS400 and the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X FQ400 for possibly the ultimate AWD head to head, with a [fun] drag race between the cars at the end.
Huge thanks to Bradley and Matthew Carr and also BunningGarages.co.uk, Wolverhampton Subaru Specialists, together with Island Garage for making this happen - plus our dear old friend, Steve in his 500+ bhp monster!

    The last gen Eclipse was nothing but a decent body style..actually great for the time, IMO..but zero lovability when it came to performance. Moving the brand to a crossover SUV....and after dropping the Evo. Sadly, there is nothing in their lineup that isn't boring AF now. I will say that the 4g69 is sturdy though, my ex ran her Eclipse bone dry of oil, to the point one of the plug gaskets melted a bit, and I have put 30k more miles on it (with heavier oil and additives), and it still runs well, despite oil pressure lights at stop once it is warmed up. Oh yeah, she got Scooby in the separation, I hate my commute so much now.. :)

Hatchbacks and Liftbacks are preferred for their practicality, but the pure allure of the style of a coupe and sedan can not be denied. Class > Crass. All of the cars like the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Subaru Impreza WRX STi, Honda Civic Type R, Ford Focus RS, Volkswagon Golf R, BMW M340i, Nissan Skyline/Infiniti G37, Acura TLX SH-AWD, Lexus IS F, and Genesis G70/Kia Stinger GT is the closest we can get but each miss the mark in their own way.

His car felt dead, didn't handle anywhere near what my car can do even with 4 passengers. Evo is definitely better on the performance side and the STI may be better for an all around fun daily driver, some feel it looks better too but I prefer my X. I only want performance out of my car so with the goals I have it has to be an Evo. In a couple weeks my car will be making 500+whp as well :)

    subaru has been offering a CVT on their base model WRX for some years now. clearly they are steering away from true performance 4-seater fans for some dumb reason. EVO has true torque vectoring so it definitely feels different in a corner. WRX STi has something close to an ABS that kicks in when cornering and they have the audacity to call it "torque vectoring" lmao. just btw while 500hp is nothing to the old unbreakable cast iron 4G63, i don't think it's particularly healthy for EvoX's aluminium block 4b11T. the fun of EvoX is in the corners. i own a MY14.5 Ralliart with the same engine (although different turbo when stock. mine was single scroll but i swapped it for a twin scroll from a wrecked EvoX last year) and none of my local tuners i talked to recommended going beyond 300KW (400-ish bhp) with it. mine now is at 223KW (stock 177KW) and i'm super happy with it. when i've saved enough money for a new daily driver, im gonna get my Ralliart fully rallycross compliant. wide body kit, rally susp, mudflaps, rollcage, window reinforcement and the lot. the twists and turns and the edge of grips are what's fun for me. not sure if tuning an aluminium 4cly 2.0T 4WD to be more drag oriented is the way to go when there are so many good iron block V8 RWDs for just that purpose.

    The stock block 4b11 is definitely not as strong as the 4g63 but it can still handle that power just fine if tuned right with the tq in the safe zone. There's stock block X's with upwards of 700whp, so it's capable of making power, for how long that's another story. For me tq won't be an issue because my motor is being built as we speak, still stock head except for cams and springs. I wanted a car that could be as fast as super cars and also handle well, not just be a laggy highway queen so that's why I went with an EFR Twin Scroll set up, it has amazing spooling characteristics yet is capable of 750whp on e85! I think I will keep it around 500-600whp on pump gas tho once it's all done but at least I have room for more if I want in the future

    The hatch STi's actually look way better in person than they do on video or in pictures. When you see them in person you can notice the wide wheel arches they have. They're wide cars that have presence on the road. And in the gunmetal silvers or black, also the WR blue, they look good. They seem to suit the darker colours for the hatch. Although it did take a long-time for them to grow on me, and they still aren't my favourite year model, I think the hatches are still rather good looking. You can get the same gen STi in sedan also (that came out a few years after, it's the same front-end, same gen, just a sedan variant). I actually prefer that gen than the current gen (current gen looks too Evo for me). But that's Subaru for you, I never like the current gens, then they grow on me years later.

    @@jamesmedina2062 See the new STi S209 that is being released in the US market? Man, I don't like it at all. Look at the front fender, the design is so clunky. The new gen is ugly / awful appearance wise. And even with that S209 I saw various videos / articles saying it's the fastest STi ever released, but they really meant to say it's the fastest released in the US market. Because the Cosworth CS400 in this video is still faster, which was released in the UK market. The CS400 is highly desirable now. It's def one of the best special edition STi's ever released, and it really has become the benchmark for special variant STi imo.

    I think the Mitsubishi looks better VS the Subaru for this year. Objectively, it's very impressive how the Evo also makes so much power and torque with 500 cc of less displacement. The Evo also has the more focused racing interior. Transmission wise if the Evo is the manual 5 speed, then the STi takes that category as the STi is well known to have a very robust 6 speed gearbox. Sound wise, it must be given to the STi in my option. Handing likely goes to the Evo as STi's are know to understeer from factory unless they have some aftermarket suspension upgrades. Full disclosure I have a tuned 2004 STi but can admit the facts!

    Between these two, and I say this as a Subaru fan, I'd have the Mitsi. However, as a man lucky enough to have lived in Japan for many years and owned both Evo's (6 and 9) and Impreza's, (1998 WRX Wagon, Hawkeye STi) I have settled on a V5 STi Type RA as the best of the bunch; Have owned my current one 12 years and it came back to the UK from Japan with me, just couldn't part with it.

I love it to bits and it now runs 408bhp and even though its 10 years old,it can still show up the likes of the new Focus RS and such like,and I've never owned a car that turns so many heads.

    Thanks gents- I appreciate the patter! I'll go with the Mitsu, for several reasons. Better quality, better handling (on the track), great layout. The Subie (Scooby?) loses cuz of squeaks & rattles, and, lower interior quality. That 4 pounds means quite a bit in fit & finish. But, at the end of the day- just finding an unmolested version of each is quite impressive. Thanks for the video, I know that I enjoyed every minute of it.

    There's no denying it to be fair now, to me really both cars are just really similar to each other. They both literally offer almost the same and from this point on it's up to the design preference of the individuals. The only thing that could seperate those two from each other is by letting every individual who owned both cars for a decent anmount of time decide which they liked more in ways of aerodynamics and handling etc. This way we could atleast get a clear overview of the gravitational stuff. Other than that, both cars are just beautiful and powerful and i'd be happy with either one of them :)
