Women. I don't get them.

Well, if you're left handed, you can't teach the right hand to swing, can you?

Perhaps men are more suited to you?

But I am a little worried as to what's inside the motors of the WRX.

It's all plastic.

Nik.

Sorry to decline your offer. Poon's too good of a thing.

Too much plastic for my liking.

Waaaaay too much.

Header tanks are plastic again.... If anyone has owned an RS Liberty or early WRX, all would shudder at it, as it causes so much pain and grief when they crack and leak.

Lighter than aluminium.

Subaru are all about weight saving...

The 09 must have been a complete bum nugget then!

Haven't been close enough to an MY10 WRX to know, but the MY09's aren't bad. It's the MY08 ones that were complete bum nuggets - first of the 'Betty' range. It's known as the softest WRX ever made. The MY09 got a bunch of upgrades which were well received and then the MY10 came out with the pumped guards and was finally awesome!

Together can be a function on simultaneous, so we were indeed on the phone together. Also, together is a contact between two points, further strengthening my argument. Also, you brushed me off for all the hipsterzzz at Zhe Monkz.

Together imply's geographical closeness.

Same time = same time.

Yeah, my guess Josh is that the tarbo is loosing efficiency up high in the revs.

2.5s don't seem to like to rev high. Well, not quite like my 207. But that's apples and oranges.
They do like to rev, but feels like you're starting to waste your time when you get to around 5k. My car starts to get its freight train on then.

I find this with mine too. Turbo is good in its little rev range but runs out quite quickly.

Cashing monies received from B4 today....thinking of turbos to replace said cruddy sti one....

What a stupid morning!

I remember my first alarm going off but I must've accidentally switched it off instead of pressing snooze.

Next time I woke up was AN HR AND A HALF LATER! I was already supposed to be in the office!

WHOOPS!

Got here about 50 mins late...

[ams]

Going to be a hot one today.

30 degrees at 7:15am according to the car temp sensor...

Morgs - you are correct.

08 is the bum nugget. 09 is the first of the better ones. I think it was '11 (or even late '10) where they shared the STi wide body.

+ the smoke down here, it's going to be a horrid day.

There were some early (08) ones that got the wide kit. STi Spec R variants? But yes, the MY11 must've been the first lot to get the kit as standard.

Your Mrs' one is still the slimmer one?

[Alex]

Yeah, hers is the slimmer one.

Bit of a personal question there Morgs....sheesh.

[Morgan]

Actually, looks like all STi's got a wider kit.

MAAAAD

Wow that dude has clearly poured a LOT of money into that thing, wonder why he's selling it so cheap.

Probably lost his license.

[Morgan]

At first I was like "A FOUR YEAR OLD SUBARU FOR $40K?? That's not cheap."

Then I went back to search results and was like "MY GOODNESS STi's ARE SO MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE THAN REGULAR WRX's"

That thing is beautiful.
