Raced a white EVO6TME just 15min ago. Bloody hell, it was fast! We didn't get a proper launch due to the traffic, but i was behind him on the traffic lights. What can I say- I was torn apart, shreded into pieces, slashed, hammered and murdered! What actually happened: when we started- i got on him(don't forget i was in back of him) and had to release the accelerator not to hit his bumber, when he started to go (finally got his turbo to spin). I sticked at his bumper all way down the 1st. Perfectly shifting into 2nd- he was pulling a car length of me, 3rd- he is 2 cars away and continuously pulling ahead! It was quick. I don't know what HP he's got, cause he didn't talk to me on the next traffic lights- probably way too proud of himself Any ideas what sort of HP's his car in?

 

300+ at least... evos are very quick, especialy the sprint!
An Evo 8 gets to 100 a full second quicker than my STI8 with PPP!

Don't worry yours sounds better!

 

Mate, mine is Spec C=~330HP He must be over me?!

 

you will get someone come along in a minute telling you this isn't possible and you must have missed a gear or summat

 

it's not possible - you must have missed a gear or summat.....

 

LOL

 

Most Tommi's are modded and running around 330+

 

That must have been a serious EVO to do that to a Spec C...

Whereabouts in London did this happen? Did the EVO have red Ralliart mudflaps?

 

When I read that first I thought you were going to say you have a UK turbo, but a Spec C!!!! That EVO must have been an animal, 350bhp maybe???

Misha, can you post a few pics of your car in the members gallery?
Never seen one in the flesh before.
Cheers

 

2 akshay67: It happened in St John's wood area. We were coming from Finchley road, noticed him near O2 center. As for the mudflaps, i can not say what mudflaps they were- white and red, might be ralliart. The driver was a black guy, smoking a thin cigar. Cockpit was full of gauges. The car was tinted. That's all what i could see on the next traffic lights.
2 Danny B: I could, but my pics are so large- almost a meg each. Any ideas where can i get some software to make them smaller? P.S. How do I attach the pictures to the gallery?

Mail them to d.blanchfield@btinternet.com and I'll sort them out if you like.

If not

Make sure they are saved as a .jpg not .bmp then go to http://fotopic.net sign up and upload them, then copy & paste the link into a post in the members gallery.

Cheers

Press to see how its done

 

thought all spec "c"s were white?
dave

 

Mine is spec C Ltd which only comes in red.

 

It could of course have been an EVO 6 Extreme..... they had 340Bhp as standard....

 

As always I stand corrected!
dave

 

Got the e-mail and posted in the members gallery, you lucky sod that car looks a beauty
http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...hreadID=276765

 

Nope, 100 % positive.

Spec C ltd comes in Red, WR blue and white.

Power is still 280bhp as standard on Jap fuel.

The Litchfield car has a part decat and remap for UK fuel for the 330bhp.

Nathan..

 

Gonna do some power testing next week I thought spec C comes with 330 HP standard. Mine is standard....yet.

Nathan L,
You wouldn't be thinking about changing now would you?

 

The Spec C comes in WR Blue or White, the Spec C Ltd only comes in Red.

Misha.

Sell that ugly, slow POS and buy mine. You know it makes sense.

That evo 6 is not exactly a thing of beauty now is it?

This imho is much better apart from the spoiler

 

Why is my Spec C Ltd WR blue then ??

 

Gonna do some mods b4 Xmas Any1 knows where I can get a carbon spoiler?

 

The Spec c limiteds come in a few colours, white, red, blue, black, the spec c comes in white or blue (but have never seen one in blue).
The spec c also has 320bhp out of the box, the official is 280bhp as per any jap car due to their gentlemans agreement.
Misha, who are you insured with?

Tony

 

Danny

The Spec C ltd definitely came in the three colours mentioned. The production run has now ended AFAIK, which is why the link to it has disappeared off of the Subaru Japan website.

If you look at the Litchfield Imports Subaru home page you will see a picture in the top right hand corner of a blue one.

Misha

Please let us know how you get on with the power testing? With a decent exhaust and remap you will be seeing fairly high power figures. Due to the roller bearing turbo you will also find spool up and acceleration will be fairly vivid.

Nathan..

 

Dyney

What gives you that idea then

Nathan..
