I need my engine built before I can drop it back in. And I need parts before I can build my engine.
So that's why it isn't in.

Don't break it Tom, proper JDM's are worth fixing Especially Limited Editions like ours apparently for every 555 that gets broken a Subaru engineer has to fall on his sword and his family starve and there is much suffering. On the flip side for every UK2000 that's broken a dove is released and a 1000 bonsai are re-planted in Japan.

Tom,

Just a thought, isn't yours the ra? Might be worth looking for a cdb to help keep the originality.

If it has an M badge on the rear, you wouldn't keep up long enough to mock the hairdresser.

Give me a Z4M anyday!

No match for the spec C? Must have been a crap driver if I'm honest Steve. They're faster than an M5 on track and also don't have a top end limiter. They will happily pull past 175mph.
If it was on damp country lanes then yes the M would struggle as they're a serious handful to drive and drive well, unlike the scoob.
Get one on dry roads with someone that can use it and I'm pretty confident they would destroy any 350bhp impreza without fuss

Quite possibly true, it was a wet A13.
