Shaolin_Racer, 1.8T is not a car. Its just a motor. (Like SR20DE) They are put in everything from the new beetle, to the Audi A4, to the TT.

When they first came out in the states, the gti's were pretty bad little cars. They are not all that much today, but I wouldnt want to race one of the new ones. The 1.8T makes 180hp and takes 6.5 seconds 0-60, and 15.3 in the 1/4 mile. (Car and Driver, March 2002) The VR6 is even better. Its got like 202hp. Not sure of the times though. The only problem is that they arent the greatest handling cars. But wait til the 25th Anniversary Edition comes out. Same 180hp but with a 6-speed, 18'' BBS wheels, Recaro seats, stiffer suspension etc. Its called something else here cause GTI's have only been in the states for 19 years. I think its like 337 or something like that. Here are some pics.... (I know this is not a VW forum. But its a pretty bad ass car)

new cars are heavy. older 1.8T's are poop. They hit @ 16.3 in the 1/4

Shoot! I saw your car list in your post....

Screw the Nissan, you'll take that 325is to town. Pit a German vs a German and then you've got a race. Sure it would be cool to see your SE-R smoke 'em, but my love will always be for the Bimmer

Huh?

i had raced both of those cars in my bimmer before, and it was just far too easy. the thing has somewhere in the range of 200hp(butt dyno) and i was racing stock 4 cylinders.
