was the m800 pnp reading avcs back in early 2004? would of been just on the cusp of it as it usually takes within 12-18 months for all the bugs to be ironed out. motec would of had a few version 7 sti's in various levels of r&d with its international dealers/buyers until the aus spec 02 came out, give or take that transition period and more demand....would of been damn close.

on a side note, its going to be interesting seeing how those two mms 08sti's go like next week. all the best parts money can buy, plus the meticolous attention to detail in piecing it all together. easy 200+ grand build on each car, lot of money to put on the line, its a shame they wont stay new for very long!

for some reason they bin one (god forbid) could be the time for some seagull action raping all those parts, say hello to mr s202!
