subaru autos have longer gears and the car would have better traction and a slightly bigger engine

well if you got an engine with alot of power and a tuned automatic transmission/shift kit  
i would see that as being alot faster than a manual with the same power

but what im saying is the subbie AWD ,Auto 180hp 3100lb  
and s13 hatch RWD 5speed 150 Hp 2600lb (maybe minus 100lb due to speed holes)

ive driven the subbie and i feel lag  
ive driven the 240 i dont feel lag lol

It all depends on driver end of story. A 200HP turbo 240 can be murdered by a 160HP KA 240 because of driver alone. It all depends on driver.

i dont think so. you’d have to be 13 and not know how to use a clutch for a ka to lose to an sr or kat.

Lol how can you lose to a 160hp KA in a 200hp Turbo 240… lmfao, youd have to be retarted

I think the 240 would take the subie, a little extra horsepower compared to 1000lbs heavier, i eat 300hp mustangs thats like 100hp plus but they weight about 1000lbs more.
