potential... or???

I would take the Type 20 at the drop of a hat. I was too stunned before to really provide any useful input to the thread

Good, you got my reference then Ahh good old bodybuilding forum...

Yes, its one hot looking car and to tell the truth the more I see them the more I like them. I'm still really not a fan of the rear tail lights, thats really the only thing that spoils the look of the car, the rest is quite nice overall.

I'm pretty impressed with some of those numbers Litchfield has managed to make from the car, although spending AU$86k+ on a car should make any car into a weapon.

Very, very true.

I spotted MRT's latest project STi in North Sydney a couple of times the other week. VERY very nice. Had the burble too, which I didn't think the new ones had (I heard the headers are even length). Was black + white and looked very good. Had a nice shopping list on it too, including ECUTek.

got a big enough dyno graph...??? that's pretty epic... (the car) and as much as i don't like the back of the new impreza... it looks better with the altezza taillights IMO...

[Xon]

Whats 400ps in a real measurement? Impressive I guess... but still pretty darned fuggly

[twinturbosubaru]

Roughly 400kw at the flywheel I must say I like the hatches now, they do look smart, and look right on the STi definately Paul

That's quite a respectable figure then.
I have to admit the STi kit doesn't look too bad for a korean hatch.

[Mosti]

Looks good
although, I would prefer the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Hatch thats coming out
