DTS I hope you're giving short odds on that

 

Looks like we could start a type R/RA appreciation society

I always thought the 22b was faster than a P1.I have never seen a mag that says other wise,ive been in both and thought the 22b was faster my self.

 

As slow as a UK300 LOL, I dont think so .

 

at santa pod i beat a wrx ra slightly modded and a type r modded as well

 

standard UK300 ??

wanna go against mine as I may got to a few SPODs this year ??

 

What is a std UK300 spec 300BHP or just a sales gimic badging?

T.

 

300 made

not 300bhp or 300mph top speed either

 

He he..... sorry but i've just can't take a thread seriuosly when somebody calls a car MINTAS .

Personally i'd get a 22B cos it's MINT and SORTED. Check dis geeza... you'd look da bomb down at MacDs in the B yo.

Thats what I thought

But how are they spec'd, are they just a rebadged UK Turbo? don't get mentioned on here much so.....

i keep meaning to change my user name since i had sold my uk300 but i'd lose all my posts

 

forgot to say that i won against the RA by about 5 car lengths....which is quite a bit at santa pod

 

tizard99 what do you mean by the "older shape" UK 300? they only did the one version ?
Ok some figures quoted by Autocar
STi Type R 22B Top speed 149mph
0-60 5.0sec
Standing 1/4 13.7 sec
50-70 in 5th 5.8 sec
30-70 through gears 5.0 sec
Average fuel cons 20mpg

P1 Top speed 155mph
0-60 4.7sec
standing 1/4 13.9
50-70 in 5th 6.8
30-70 through gears 4.8
Average fuel cons 19.5mpg

Not a lot in it, but if you want a car to use day to day then its got to be a P1, if you want a car for the weekend that the rest of us Impreza drivers(and most of the Evo drivers) will WOW over then get the 22B.

I'm no expert but aren't Evo's much more expensive to run than Scobby's

In terms of Evo's being heavier on wear and tear items, i.e.brakes, tyres, clutches etc under the same conditions, also servicing is more expensive I beleive.

 

Attu, the reason I said what I said (with a (?) ) was that I see one for sale on Autotrader the other week, must have been some one telling porkies...

yep no probs

i'm up there on 23rd of feb if its not raining

 

rich read your post at the bottom of page 2 did you beat an RA with a Uk300 or not .

 

never said i beat a RA in my uk300

 

never believe a magazines performance figures unless they show you photos of the car with the timing gear in it!

and even then beware that they are prone to bribary.

On top of that even if they are 100% accurate, they arent consistent and the percentage error is enormous when comparing 0-60.

To be honest t makes a mockery of performance cars.

oh and tone, LOL, hysterical maccie d's quote!

Bo selecta.... Just keepin' it real Adam... just keepin' it real.

Tony (off to large it wit da boys listin to Blazin Squad init) .

 

standard P1

 

if its standard then there shouldnt be much in it except the RA shoudl be 0.5 quicker to 100 due to the gearing and weight .

 

i won by 1.5 secs

 

You lying little weasel!

 

check ya slip......as usual your a sore loser

 

boys boys boys, you know I'd beat you all so just bring it on and shut up

 

no chance
