The Monaro is built by GM and has the same engine as the Corvette . Corvettes and Monaros and GTOs will run faster than a stock SC300. Nuf said.

I was just learnin how to use some basic font size or whatever, I didnt mean to offend anyone.Rex=WRX=Subaru=2l Turbo=I hope you know it now.
Have you tried SC with a WRX,if not than try it. Also let a WRX vs Monaro than u'll know what I mean.
Never mind a GM or Corvettes engine are same as Monaros....A better car can outrun anything.This is a fact and we all know but if you dont understand than I cant say much about you guys....sorry.
Pliz dnt get offened so quickly.

Some guys HAVE swapped integra motors into their CRX to make it incredibly quick.

But I digress. You Soarer however can be made into a much more powerful car than the Monaro. Your TT is roughly on par with the 400 stock for stock. With mods, which are much cheaper for the 300 than the 400, you can get to the 400+ hp range relatively inexpensively.

since you meant the WRX
they have AWD - maybe with some decent DR it would be an even launch - but above 50 mph I will rape WRXs all day long.

I am not sayin REX=honda or whatever your friends use for.......I mean REX for Subaru.Ask any Aussie and they will surely tell u whats REX means...from my knowledge REX is meant WRX and most of the people know this but in other cases, some people are bit late in these terms.

The monaro (GTO) stock will beat a wrx stock, granted both drivers know how to race the car. the wrx vs TTsoarer, was already settled in above posts.
I've seen stock 1/4 mile times for the wrx range from 14.5-14.1.
where the 2004 monaro i believe runs a high/mid 13.

You asked:
I wanted to knw which stock car is the fastest in 1/4mile and overall position
Members answered that the Monaro will win, but you want to disagree. You don't ask a question then disagree with their answers. If you don't believe that the Monaro will beat your stock Soarer, WHY ask the question?
Go drive around Figi and find one to race and get your answer there, don't ask on a forum.
