[QUOTE=Calmac8360;744989] I'd like to replicate some of the suspension improvements, WRX handles like a boat.....but again for the day to
day grind its comfortable and seems to feel a little better with a bit of pace and commitment. [/QUOTE] The problem is that is how it starts...we all thought like that in the beginning; "Oh I'll just make the suspension a little better" "I'll just tweak some more power out of it" The problem is that after a while the gearbox cant handle the extra power and your less-than-professional driving skills, then the 205 bottom end shits itself (DukeDrifter-style) and then you get lured into: "Well I'll throw in a 6 speed and a 207 so that doesn't happen again" "While I'm at it I'll convert the hubs and put brembo's on" Next thing you know your bank account is $20k lighter and that slightly older STi looks like a much better deal.... Stay out of the modification trap and you should be alright, WRX's are great daily's, but too many try to squeeze too much out of a WRX and pay dearly for it. |
All I have to say is... I wish I had joined this forum earlier and got this sort of advice. LOL

WRX... vs STI [IMG]http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy154/mitchwnz/SlaLOLm_zps7278ed10.png[/IMG] Trust me it's worth it.[/QUOTE] 08 wrx vs 11 sti. :s Still, get your drift. |
Ide get a GC8 STi and put the left over money into coil overs, brakes, new computer, tune and some nice sticky wheels and you will have a car that will run rings around any of the modern WRX's.... but maybe im just biased :)
