View Full Version : Moded vtr vs zetec s???
jsdvtr
3rd January 2009, 10:45
My mate at work seems to think his fiesta zetec s is faster than my 03 vtr just because he drives faster than me. All he has is a powerflow rear box and ive got 4 2 1 mani, miltek system, piperx open filter, omp lower strut brace, lowered 50mm apex springs, grooved discs f+r with greenstuff pads, stripped rear with sparco buckets and 4points, quickshift! I think hes stupid for thinking this lol and most will, i just say ask anyone and they will agree with me!

no mate, they are neck and neck, its the old age debate but in reality theres no difference on the road
theres so little in it that the driver or age/condition of engine etc will make more of a difference imo

Standard VTR's can beat ZetecS', so yours will have his pants down. I even had one idiot in a Zetec S try to have a play with me the other day. As i dont often actually accept, i thought i'd accept for a change. He was guttered ;) Ofcourse no speed limits were broke....... :fcuk:

are we talking about the current 2litre 16v Zetec fiesta? Either im on another planet or some people are having a laugh.
On my last sprint event, i had to go up against (among others) a clio 182 and said feista in my VTR. I got beat by both and was driving out of my skin (see pic)
Mines fitted with gpn billies, 24mm ARB and fully polybushed so i was able to retain some dignity on the corners so i can only assume they have much more power to get their time down on the straights.
no idea about the old style though, 1600's arent they?

That would be an SI? Not a Zetec S as they didnt do one that shape.
JC-Furio... i dont condone racing on the streets either. But at the end of the day, you dont have to 'race' to show another car up. There are times and places where you can get away with a quick, short blast. And if you say you'vee never done it, you talk crap (no offence unless you get arsey after :P) but i've heard so many people say they dont give it some beans time to time... and then a week later 'ugh, i rolled my car'.

Why do you feel the need to show up another car though? At the end of the day it proves you have a faster car, which usually means you've just spent more money on it than the person you're trying to show up. That's hardly an achievement.
If you take 2 cars on track, and you beat one which is better than yours down to your actual driving skill, that's an achievement. If people put their foot down to get away from me at lights I just think "nice one big man, you're obviously extremely hard in the pants right now."

last time i heard a standard zetec s will beat a standard vtr, vts is a totally different story though, the fiesta is a much better handled car imo and it would be neck and neck when comparing corners and straights, the only reason the saxo keeps up or goes faster is due to the fact it really is made of nothing and very light where as the fiesta is heavier, the way i see it street racing is gay, keep it on the track

lol people get to goody too shoes over a 'drag race' aslong as you arent being an idiot and doing stupid speeds or taking corners like you are on a track then its fine now and then!
a little race off the line at traffic lights, or a little push on the dual carriage way its ok in my opinion.
as long as your arnt endangering anyone else on the road its ok. just make sure the dual carriage way is fairly clear, and there isnt anything infront of you when at the traffic lights

VTR will beat a Zetec S to about 75mph - then the 16v takes over.
Motoway on the way back from picking up Clouds/James green VTR - pissed (just) over mine, then get to 70MPH, then ZS starts over taking, then after an unspecified speed, the ZS leaves VTR

I never called them. Infact i considered one instead of the VTR. But my VTR came along at the right price, so that was that. TBF i think they're nice looking cars, the seats let them down abit, but i wouldn't be ashamed to be seen in one.

this is very true think every one gives there car a lil blast now and again else we wouldn't be driving sports models of cars we love and all be driving 1.0 liters or getting the bus :P no harm in a lil fun we all do it when were young but just be safe. i can honestly say i cant be arsed with that sort of driving on roads now as im to woried about getting stone chips on me front bumper etc and abit of a grandad n stick to speed limits and just laf at other chavs trying to get me to race, it is tempting at times tho when there being proper dicks, you just wanna try put them in the place lol

:hug::hug::clapping::clapping:
Agreed, I have owned VTS and Zetec S - and the VTS went in favour of the Zetec S, but then people on here are bound to be bias towards the Saxo, but I notice the arguements on here are all penis extension related like "it is slow as fuck" and "my 8v will piss all over it". Do it the other way round, ask the same question on ZSOC and it would be sensible arguements against the saxo like "you'll die in on of those if someone hits you"
Both basic cars, saxo is a tad quicker, but miles more unsafe and fewer luxuries, but hey you live life only once:)

I cant be asked to watch but the car in question in the 'Bluefin works' vid was clocked and never serviced regulary and a shite driver from what ive been told.
Right to clear this up ive owned both.
Zetec S
&
Mk2 VTR
Vtr feels quicker, but its between drivers.
A zetec S can be made as quick/quicker then a VTS fairly easily from what ive been told too.
3 of my close pals had ZS's 1 i used to beat easish, the other 2 were a handful and it was between drivers.
Zs is better built, also handling is almost the same as a spaxo if not better from my experience in both..
BenG
23rd April 2009, 18:46
The Zetec-S is so much better made than a saxo, and how can you lot say its chavvy? saxos are chavvy. I would much prefer a zetec-S to a vtr/s anyday, i joined here becuase i wanted to get a VTS, but after getting back on to ZSOC.com i quickly realised my mistake. ZS's are so much better, so what if they are a bit slower, they look and feel so much better, and on a track a ZS would kill a VTR and be close to a VTS becuase its handling is superb.

they handle fantastic but so does the saxo

Owned VTS and Zetec S
Zetec S stayed as build quality is sooo much better
VTS much faster
VTR faster UPTO 75MPH
VTS was fun, and I miss her loads!

Refer also to my previous post ;)
VTR will beat a Zetec S to about 75mph - then the 16v takes over.
Motoway on the way back from picking up Clouds/James green VTR - pissed (just) over mine, then get to 70MPH, then ZS starts over taking, then after an unspecified speed, the ZS leaves VTR
