2003 Jaguar S-Type R vs. 1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4

[mitsigto]

why are you trying to compare a standard s type r to a highly modified vr4. i owned a 93 mitsubishi gto with 400 hp now looking at getting an s type r. im not sure that jag in the video is the r version considering it has 400 hp in standard form 420 with the revised pully wheel

[oneslowVR4]

vr4 FTW :)

[cbr900rr919]

i didnt hear the super charger whining are you sure that wasn't a 3.0 v6 jag. the 4.2r jag is faster than an m5 BMW and it didnt look like it was going very fast. i dont have an r model but i do have a 4.2 in my s type and i could have gone faster than that guy probably not fast enough to beat that dodge vr4 but it would have been closer than that

[ironbull2003]

So that vr4 has like 500hp?

[Zackcatlin]

and thats why i drive a 3000gt

[Htown113]

hehe i own a 95 vr4 and they come stock 3750 lbs so idfk what this kids sayin about over 4k lbs he must be a retard lol. but its ok you dont understand the power of a vr4 until you own/ride in one

[azautosport]

THE VR4 IS FAIR OFF THE JUMP, HOWEVER ON THE HIGHWAY THEY GET OWNED BY OLD LADIES IN THEIR MERCEDES

[TH3Omaster]

@azautosport uhh NO

[blackBLUR89]

@azautosport your an idiot. stay off of youtube.

[mikethesmooth]

well that was pretty obvious

[coryskateboarder]

the jag caught up in the end it looks like? even though it did have like a 2 car length start..

[TH3Omaster]

@coryskateboarder you must be watching on a 10in screen cause the jag was nowhere near him

[nigelomar]

y do ppl even mess w/ the s an x type jag they r just a ford taurus w/ a jag look

[AshyBone]

this race was beyond stupid. 16g powered vr4 with supportin mods dats beyond 500hp easy. fuck a jag... an it aint british no more its ford now aka an american piece of shit.

[birdogg27]

wrong jackass It has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Indian company Tata Motors Ltd. since March 2008 and is operated as part of the Jaguar Land Rover business.

[AshyBone]

@birdogg27

[AshyBone]

@birdogg27 just incase it wasnt clear jaguar was purhased by FORD in 1989. in 1999 they where considered the premier or luxury side of ford. both jaguars and fords shared the same engine. like the taures for instance. but yes as of 08 they are no longer Ford prodicts... this how ever is a 2003... so please dont call me a jackass i know what im talkin about.

[TH3Omaster]

@AshyBone dont be mad the guy in the jag couldve said "i dont want to race you"

[LukeNAESA10]

@AshyBone It's alot better than that blue ricer peice of shit it was racing. Also fuck you.

[AshyBoneVR4]

@LukeNAESA10 Hey we all have our own seperate tastes. If you want your molded taures fine. I'll take the "blue ricer peice of shit" thats 12-13 years older and still kick your ass. Shit you can have 5 car lengths in that lil jag and it still wouldn't be able to beat the vr4. Thats a 1st gen 91-93. The weakest of all the othr vr4. lol love to see what would've happened if it was a 99. Happy new years.

[LukeNAESA10]

@AshyBoneVR4 It's tuned to heck in this video. The S-type R will continue to accelerate to its limiter. It hits it no problem.

[karterphil]

kevin

a supra looks like a car that only chavs would buy i.e. it looks shit so compare this to the beauty of a british jag.

[karterphil]

darkness

a v6 stealth wont touch these cars

my dads jag s type r (which has been tuned and modded) has close to 620 bhp and does the 1/4 mile in 8.1 secs so a v6 vs 620 hp 532lbft torque 4.2 v8 hmm?

[daAssKicker]

620bhp jag doing 8.1 in the 1/4m? What kind of crack r u smoking?

[chemik]

LMAO.Thats what I was thinking. What a ratard.

[karterphil]

@chemik retard is the correct spelling you chav (as i presume that is what you are saying.) as i don't recall there being a "ratard" in the dictionary.

[kevin61096]

toyota supra twin turbo would smoke those cars

[kevin61096]

u guys are all stupid a supra twin turbo would smoke any of those cars

[1035573]

so you are comparing a 5000lbs Jag to a Mitsu Gt which is... how light, like 2000-3000lbs?

that' s crazy.

[daAssKicker]

1035573.... U calling a 3kgt vr4 light? hahaha. thats funny...

[Inuyasha1771]

ARe you an IDIOT? The VR4 is over 4000 LBS, it's one of the heaviest street cars around buckwheat.

[sh1znack]

@Inuyasha1771 Just a tad less than 4000lbs..

[Drockvr4]

@sh1znack  3750 lbs stock

[sh1znack]

@Drockvr4 Curb weight, yes.

[Drockvr4]

@sh1znack just so you had the facts straight, 250 lbs is a little more than a tad!

[sh1znack]

@Drockvr4 Lol, indeed. My facts are typically correct about these cars. I own a '94 base and a '95 VR-4. <3

[Drockvr4]

@sh1znack I'm not trying to be a dick, I too own a vr-4, 92, I get tired of hearing these youtube nuts saying vr-4's are junk, that there lead sleds. I put mine on the scale when i bought it 7 years ago and it was 3747. since then i got it down in the 3500's. i still have the stock turbos on but that's about to change, take care!!!

[timyestim]

I have a 92 VR4 and have been thinking of getting rid of it and my eye has been on the STRs interesting finding this vid

[mmdaniels33]

i just got rid of my 3000gt tt.. fuck.. hardest thing i ever had to do.

[darkness19040]

my24valvedohc stealth would take both those cars !

[platon4eternity]

what do u think u can tell us with this video men..??? u just have twice bhps and of course u r so much faster than s-type....... and what?????????????? your car is a crap in front of a jag, any car looks some crapy in front of a jag. the end?.. good. ;)

[karterphil]

i couldn't have put it better

[gmanvr4]

Good race . . lolz

[knightster2589]

K ur all a bunch of haters. The 3000GT is a beautiful car and was ahead of its time. And for the price it is amazing. Compare the price of the 3k vs the Jag.

Jags are nice my dad has one but every car has it's plus and minus. So don't trash talk any car when all have something different to offer and everyone has different tastes. And calling somebody an idiot makes you one because you are ignorant enough to drop that line vs giving facts

[cartmanrulez32]

imports are precision muscle cars now those are real cars!!! imports break down

[melchezedek777]

Rommel you dont even have a DL

[cartmanrulez32]

@melchezedek777 stfu melchezedek... dont need a DL yet...

[platon4eternity]

lol... another one boring "manga-kits-car" japanese piece of s*** with no soul & history inside. just a ton of hp under the hood & that's all. i wish u 2 feel someday what it means to have a jag.

[treezereeeeeeeeeeeee]

Realy u understand what it is to have a jag. Jaguar are stylish cars that have arrogance. Mitsubishis are just japanes mass manufactured cars. The Jag realy has history.

[Uwontwinthisargument]

The 3000GT has no soul? It was ahead of its time, has quick acceleration, and a unique exhaust note. Soul is its main perk!

And you honestly don't think the 3000GT has styling?

It may not have history, but it sure as hell made it!

Your precious Jag didn't make Motor Trend import car of the year for 1991, or any year for that matter!

Suck IT!

[treezereeeeeeeeeeeee]

With soul, I don't mean its has quick acceleration, unique exhaust etc. thats exactly what I mean. People like you think that a car with a soul means that youve got alot of HP's slammed under the bonnet. The fact that you're talking like this shows enough that you don't know where you're talking about.

[angsts1]

I own my very first 92 VR4 this year and I got to say that is it an awesome piece of machinery. I can't wait to upgrade with dynamic racing's Staged Turbo Upgrades to make 600+awhp! laters haters

[TKtw1nturb0]

Nice VR4. I'll post up a video for the haters that dont know what they are talking about. Stock motor VR4 just made 743 AWHP and 752 AWTQ, 10.6 sec daily driver on E85. HA

[TKtw1nturb0]

and let me make it clear again....DAILY DRIVER....STOCK MOTOR....

[ashtonsser]

let me make it clear, it doesnt matter its a big fat boat that weights twice as much as my sentra with 500whp, so yeah i win, doesnt matter all you have going for you is the awd, just more parts to shatter cuz yeah for all the normal owners of vr4's they just dont take care of them, and you have to take care of them more than normal cars for them to stay together. I watched 2 vr4's and one regular 3kgt blow their motors in one single night at the track, all of them timing belts, how sad

[TKtw1nturb0]

Well...I could go on and make you look like a complete fool but its not worth my time. Your ignorance makes you look like a fool already, and you have some balls to even try to bash anything when you drive...a Sentra. AND my 'big fat boat' still will beat your sentra any day of the week with a stock motor and half the money you put into your car. Im done, have fun with the response to this because i'm not even going to take time to come back and look. Numbers say it all...

[ashtonsser]

ha, ill be gladd if you dont come back to check cuz your just an idiot, i had a very good friend that owned one matter fact and same as every vr4 that isnt taken care of his timing belt tensioner completely desintigrated and bye bye valves every single one of them. Then why would 3 of them in one night blow up, huh why explain that. all of them the same problems, look at the history of them they do this when not taken care of extensively. sure take your car you paid 5k plus for and ill take..

[ashtonsser]

my sentra which weighs in at 2k lbs even and making 500whp all for alot less than you paid for your hunk of junk and at that power that motor wont last long buddy even well tuned. My fully built sr20 motor only cost me 1500 to do, i bought the car for 500 and the other turbo stuff was well under 1k so do the math, i love my sentra and topend i will walk you anytime, doesnt matter, so bring it on, i love the looks of the 3kgt's dont get me wrong all i said was you better take care of them

[413murdermass]

mitsu is garbage

[ashtonsser]

they are both slow cars so it doesnt matter, plus that stupid vr4 will just break anyways especially if launched like that, haha

hope the guy that owns the mitsu changes his timing belt, tensioners, and idlers or i feel sorry (not really) when his pistons and rods smash the valves and send the bottom end out the oil pan. Good luck with that hunk of junk, haha

[92gtotwinturbo]

if that happens to mine im going to hold you responsible, ignorant wanker

[elwlx123]

lol...mitsubishi raped jaguar...
