Sabre vs. Rolla 200Gxi vs. 4AGE 20v So me and my buddy had a run again tonight...
We launch, I have his nose at my driver window. Through first, second and end of third where we both hit the brakes, we didn't move an inch from each other. To my surprise I didn't start opening from third even a little bit like I thought I would... I have never been in a race where the gap stays exactly the same all the way through. This makes me wonder if my Unichip actually did give me 1 or 2 extra ponies..
Anyway it was nice. He has a good setup, seems to be working nicely.. '92 Rolla, 4age 20v Silvertop, C52 gearbox (I love this box btw), WAI, stock 20v branch, 72mm exhaust and a Gotech Mini-X, on stock 13" steelies . He was 1 up I was alone. I think with 15" wheels that thing will rocket off the line.

your car ain't bad at all.
remember that those 20v motors, even though just moving 1600cc worth of air, has got some seriously awesome headwork done to them by Yamaha. Couple that to the VVT they run and the fact that it's such a light engine, compared to the SR's.... NOT fair....
and all being OEM, don't exactly help the competition ether. To be ably to keep up with them you have to mod, and not just a little, you have to seriously mod, and hope they don't mod theres too, because believe me those motors take very very well to even the slightest hint of having a modification done to them....
