Hey Guys,

I'm currently looking to get a 08/09 STi and was wondering what the difference between the STi and the STi Spec R is ??

Had a quick look on Subaru.com.au and the only difference i could see was the recaro seats and the rims, is this all that is different between two?

Thanks

BBS Rims as well.....that's it I think?

That is the only difference, and after luxury car tax, its almost a 10k jump in price once you get it on the road.

Save your coin and get the normal STi.

Those seats are very nice and much better than the old pig sti seats.
reviewed r spec here http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/showthre...light=my08+sti

LOL you know you like upgraded seats Joe! ummm Leather Recaros

Well, I have had the pleasure of taking a Spec R round the track and my non Spec R.

Happy with my choice of non Spec R (seat wise).

Those wheels are not fun to clean on the spec R from a couple of Spec R owners I spoke to.

Oh, and that is the only difference (seats and wheels).

Save your coin and put it into lighter wheels with less spokes and other mods (save LCT).

The R-spec rims are lighter & the recaros are mint at the track! The R-spec rims look better too IMO.
