ST204 3SGTE VS ST205 Options

[reko]

On a quarter mile at race track X

A ST204 swapped with a 3SGTE 3rd gen + LSD tranny from MR2 (lighter but FWD with LSD)

VS

A ST205 with a 3SGTE 3rd gen (heavier but AWD)

who would normally win? and dont tell me ''well it depends on the driver and blablablablabla''.

I'm talking about perfect conditions, who would smoke who?

stock 205 and 204 with stock 205 engine and that mr2 lsd perfect conditions means the fwd will launch pretty well and should easily pass the 205 by 1000foot mark.....

swaped cars "or gt-twos" arn't that bad to launch in perfect conditions i have even held up good to modded evo 6's back in the day of my st162 swap on crap australian traffic light roads...... and yeah most stock awd cars high revs drop cluthc equals fry of the clutch or a bog down......

also moded both 205 is still not the clear winner....if u gonna go mod the 205 for suspension and launching and all that lots more power you get the same if not more at the wheels power from the 204 cause of the drive train loses (lack off compared to the 205) and the 204 would have some radial drag slicks and even maybe blot a wheel bar and or have some adjustable rear shocks or get springs and make the rear stiff as all buggery and yeah lots of variables but the fwd can get a lot of traction with mods just like modding a 205 and the 204 has the two of the three main factors for 1/4 wins....weight and power the gt-four onyl has traction and as long the 204 gets some of it it will win.

but then there is another stage when the gt-four will own and that is in examples like Tuffys 600hp+ 205 for a 204 with 600hp to get the traction needed to beat that even with the weight advantage would take drag slicks and drag suspension set up and a half.....

but back to stock for stock with drivers that have owned for a while and know how to get the best from there car...i'll still put my money on the 204 swap.
