Why not just throw in some corners, then your mate will be nowhere to be found.

haha good point wannabox instead of the freeway make it in suburbia lol, nah dont like street racing to much to a point is ok but there is a strong limit on the streets....
Basically race him at kwinana motorplex.

phizzle, well i want it to be fairly quick down the strip, think my goal is getting to mid 12's altho anything lower would be a bonus, also i want to be able to take it on the track. Which is the main reason why i love these cars and have changed from V8 to AWD

Who has the 2.5L STI with a exhaust, fuel pump, injectors and tune upgrade, and could tell me what sort of power they make and times they get on the strip ? as these mods il probably do first, then work on handleing like suspension, wheels/tyres, struts and sway bars.... then if still wanting to mod, might take the motor but further....

You don't need to upgrade your injectors. That will get you a low 13.

Like Jaron said don't bother with injectors. Chuck a turbo on the list ( avo 450 or similar ) and learn to peddle it.

Good for below 12.5 if your not nice to it when you run it.

My oppinion is if you wan't fast down the strip go with something else. Wouldnt it be cheaper to get an XR6 Turbo and do that? You would get alot more power for less.

Apart from that WRX and race on the twisties, funny comming into round abouts against boats and they go hard on the brakes and you can just nail it. Cornering > Straight line speed.

Each to their own.

Then again just get yourself a bike, and you will thrash them on the back wheel. And it will cost you alot less :P

Well aslong as i can get insurance i should be picking the car up this afternoon or tomoz morning i took extended new car warrenty as it had till 05 Sept 2010 so extended it till 05 Sept 2012 for 1200$
It has illegal rear tint at what looks like 15% (same thats on the whole of my Current car but has factory tint on front windows....
Tyres looks ok not new but about 50-60% tread left......

Can someone point me in direction of a shop that would look over the car and be able to tell me if there is anything wrong with it, preferably SOR would be good, was thinking RAC but want something more detailed, as when they done my current car they just checked the stuff i can do my self like oil leaks, tyres, filters, lights, brakes.... i want the mechanicals all checked like clutch, gearbox, compression and turbo checked and a report on whats not right and what is so can make sure i can get it fixed before i start the mods......

Also told them about the mods i wanna do and they said those mods like exhaust and fuel pump and tune shouldnt affect the NCW unless they in direct cause of the problem.....

Cant wait till i pick it up
Took it for third test drive today haha put a grin on my face haha

Oh and getting a full tank of 98 Fuel BONUS ! haha
