Just thought I'd let you know, if any of you see a DBM subaru model for sale with the REG W162 UJH, don't buy it . It's my old car and I traded it in... the turbo is on it's way out, it needs new n/s front shock and it's had the gear box re-machined twice...so don't be fooled by the imaculate looks on the outside !....just a friendly warning to those looking for a new car... cost me 000's to have the g/b done as it was out of warranty, in the end I got shot of it and will now save all my money for the new release in October....in the mean time a civic type R will have to do !

Laters and thanks for all the fish !

Something like that, it turned out that for some reason the gearbox didn't like the power coming out of the engine, can't understand why !?! the shock problem was caused bu a speed hump at a golf course, the other side or the hump had a big hole there !
