it just doesnt do it for me, i'll wait till i see it in the flesh and drive it

 

I know exactly what you mean but too many were slated it off before they had either. I've had a Bugeye and a Hawkeye and to be honest only see the light when I clean it , not when I'm driving

Wel you've can not call yourself controversial

Anyone know the offical launch dates for either the UK Sti or the JDM STi?



But still it's only an Artist impression

 

Here is a video on Youtube of the new STi being tested on the Nurburgring.

YouTube - 2008 Subaru Impreza STi - spy video-2

 

Just heard that the 2008 n/a is going to be unveiled at my nearest Subaru dealers this weekend

Vospers of Exeter » Site Home

Also at there Truro branch


Anyone going to see it at there local??????

 

is that really a car dealers website?

the impreza picture in the middle is all scrunched up and looks very strange on my monitor

 

I love the new look... I'm after one as soon as they come out. (Well first limited edition anyway.)

 

Does on mine too bud...Vospers as far as i know took on the Subaru dealership in the Plymouth/Southwest area when Haxbys went down the pan.
They also deal in Ford, Mazda and are one of the biggest dealerships down this way

 

I hope thats weighed down with recording instrumentation, because it's badly underdamped. The way it lands at Pflanzgarten 1 reminds me of my STi5 RA with the stock STi dampers, by that point on the lap they were boiling the fluid so didnt work at all.

 

I hope it goes really well. It would be a great shame to loose the Impreza brand in the UK after so many years. Its no longer for me, I've grown out of hatchbacks. but i'll duck in on the bbs.

Nice to see you are still here John. I remember being at Donnington when you had the cosworth. Not sure how many years ago that was. Dam I'm getting old.

 

Heard the UK will have redesigned bargeboard type front bumper, replicating 09 WRC Car

John

How are you, long time no see?

I took my 02 STi to the Ring with wrx Eibach's (too firm on front) and later with the "softer" Prodrive STi springs, I noticed a vast improvement in exit corning grip. yet i would have expected the reverse

My AST's from Road to Track I go 2 clicks softer front and 3-4 clicks harder rear

Whoops drifting of Topic

That could be 9 or 10 years ago now, it's frightening how it flies by!

 

Hi Tony, OK thanks, just very busy building and running historic racecars all over Europe these days. Good to see you are still having a blast on track.

Bought myself another STi5 RA Ltd though, nice car now, it was a shed when i bought it. I just dont get to use it enough. I havn't driven a lap at the 'ring this year, which is disgusting. Hopefully i'll whip the car in the transporter next time at the 'ring/Spa and give it a run then.

 

Tough Job but someone had to do it LOL





Nor me was hoping to do MLR one later but looking doubtful



Keep well

Tony
