Default Anyone got a JDM WRX STi Type S?

The latest shape, either 2014, 15, 16 or 2017 model? If so I'd be interested to ask a few questions. Thanks

Not sure how many of the new shape cars have been imported. Having said that, there's a fair few who have the UK model. Does it have to be Jdm?

Yes Edd, as I have specifics questions regarding the infotainment and other electronic displays on a JDM and whether they are convertible to English or not. (I know the UK model well and am not interested in that model).

Not S Model related but I think I know were you may be going.

I have an import Gen 4 Spec B GT Legacy that came with the JDM Sat Nav system. To make it work in the UK I had to source a UK Screen and DVD Drive otherwise it was a non-starter. I did try various avenues including reprogramming but the hardware was not UK/EU compliant.

Similarly the MacIntosh Audio was great apart from the head unit which needed some extensive rewiring to power the amp and sub woofer via an after market head unit.

I hope this helps?
