Braking is a HUGE part of being fast on a track. While he didn't pull on the STI, he destroyed it in braking and cornering. I am a huge Subaru fanboy, but the car/driver combination in the Elise was obviously faster. I don't see why people feel the need to defend the Subaru so much. Sure it gave up the biggest fight, but in the end still got owned.
@EVILEMPIRE951 I don't know if your familiar with driving but you OFTEN use your breaks. nothing special. these are all great cars, and have advantages and disadvantages. but unless this sub was INCREDIBLY HEAVILY modified, thers no way in hell it would keep up with this lotus. not a chance
@EVILEMPIRE951 I saw the lotus blow by every car and catch up to the sub which had quite a lead. have you ever driven a car. break lights in no way mean your breaking
@EVILEMPIRE951 were your eyes closed during the video? a sti is a great car, but a turbo will (and did in this video) eat it for breakfast. you can't even compare the two
I used to have a lotus elise 111R and they are indeed very quick. the handling is far superior to pretty much any other car on the road and it is by no means slow! 0-60 in just under 5 seconds as standard, brilliant car!
@XFactor2005 It's not a Celica engine. The 1.8L toyota engines are 16 valve engines. The engine in this car is a Volkswagen engine. Hence why the description says "20 valves V.A.G." (Volkswagen Auto Group). And at 1.9L, the engine was most likely bored slightly for aftermarket pistons, and stroked.
Hmn, I think the GT-S engine has a "G" in it. "G" the superior letter =) Actually the FE is on the MR2-Spyder in US... and on the standard Celica of course.
@doseofjimbob Incorrect. Lotus uses the 1.8L Toyota 1ZZ-FE (based on the Toyota Celica GT-S engine) with a Yamaha designed head and VVT cams. The earlier Elise came with a 1.8L Rover K-Series engine, perhaps you're confusing it with that?
@IDrinkN20 Theres a few lotus specalist's here in UK that can remove the standard rover k-series engine, from s1 and early s2's, and cram in Honda k20, audi 20v t, ford duratec and r32 golf 3.2 v6 engines to name a few.
This car is a full on race car, there wasnt much on it that i could see being standard when it was parked in the pits, id love a ride in it! :-)
@IDrinkN20 It is mate, ive seen this very car race in the UK timeattack series. Its Gugliemi motorsports race car, a yellow series 1 elise with motorsport clams running a modified audi/vw/seat VAG engine. Non of the engines i mentioned are standard lotus fitted engines, there all transplants.
Yeh reliable power in the lotus too tho. Engines from the Audi s3, although it's a modified engine it can't be more than 120-140bhp over standard and its got rebuilt internals. Those other cars kept breaking down all day, Although the green impreza sounded AWESOME! Another company now builds elise with 3.2 v6 golf r32 engine, with turbo option for 600bhp! Elise is the future!!
fast car,but can i point out that its 500kg lighter than the scooby thats half a ton,so its bound to haul ass,and a turbo to...,after being driven around in one a while back,you really do feel like your arse is about 2inch from road,wonder if lotus wqould eventuly do a 4x4 of this or the evora
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
skylines are awesome at everything from normal grip racing to a 1/4 mile drags to drifting( maybe a little less at drifting but still man its an all around awesome car and im lucky to own one)
are you serious?.. u think i didn't know that.. i just thought with the way that the Lotus carved them that the other cars might be NA tuned.. which there are some.. but not alot.. u got me there.. but i still prolly know more bout carz then u haha
did i say it had a turbo.. i said i thought it DIDN't hav a turbo.. when u see 1 car rip another 1 like that ov course u gonna think that the fast car haz turbo n the otherz dont
think it was knockhill (TIMEATTACK) i watched this race there anyway. Amazing car, those evos/skyline/imprezza are 800/900bhp, think elise is 360bhp ish? It came 2nd in the Pro series. Timeattack is racing against the clock tho, so hence the elise is on a fast lap where as the others wont be!
This car doesnt have a toyota engine its got a VAG 1.8T 20V which becomes closer to a 1.9l when its rebuilt and strengthened have a similar engine in my golf except with a power engineering hybrid IHI
was thinking of dropping it into a lotus for fun myself
you mean this particular car right, because the factory 1.8 is indeed a toyota powerplant. if its got a VAG 1.8t though i'd be quite pleased (big VAG fan)
That is the same engine that was put in the Celica GTS, Matrix XRS, Corolla XRS. Its called the 2ZZ engine. However Toyota stopped putting them in their cars, with the last year or 2006. They still produce the 1.8 liter 2ZZ, but only for Lotus now. I love that engine!
Hey asshole y dont u just STFU?,Do u know how hard can it be to concentrate in long circurt races? U are driving an automatic and "racing" on the straights so dont get too cocky....Stupid...
@Visclemm up to a point true (coming from a light weight car owner), but then you have cars like the GTR which seems to defy physics with all its computer trickery
