New member and my first Scoob
Hi guys
Been using the forum for a wealth of knowledge for the last week or so since i became the owner of a 96 STI import Wagon pre facelift witha face lift front end
As a previous owner of a R33 GTR skyline and a mitsi Evo 6 i have to say that the scoob has to be the most impressive in standard form
I have owned it a week and already the spending has started much to the missus dissaproval (suppose to be a family car
)
Have got myself some 4 pot front calipers, groove discs alround, mintex pads alround and braided lines, also got a set of Prosport gauges ready to fit into a 3 gauge pillar pod
The car came with a aftermarket front bumper, skirts and rear skirt. cat back exhaust, apexi filter, HKS BOV, GAB coilover suspesion and 18'' rims. It also has a feirce paddle clutch which luckily im used to with owning 2 400+bhp cars before
The car is mint inside and out and so far im very pleased with her
long may it continue

Welcome to Scoobynet. 
Quite surprised at you saying the scoob is the most impressive car out of the box. My uncle had an Evo 5 back when they were new ish, and that was an amazing car. Far better standard brakes than the Sti's that were around at the time IMO.
Nice looking car btw, I quite fancy a wagon!

It may be just that ive had a few years away from performance cars and its just feels alot more rapid
