Back in a Scoob

Lol. Just watched the vid. Yeah it's loud. Sounds good though. I got tired of the loud exhausts on my scoobs and went down the h&s scoobysport route with discreet 3.5 rolled in pipe. Looks same as prodrive bb and sound great and not silly loud.

Thinking I may have to put a resonated centre on as it seems to be getting louder.

Couple of pics from today;

I've definitely got the bug. I find myself driving just because I enjoy the car and not because I have to be somewhere.

Looks good! Bring it to CSS and we'll have a loud off . Just kidding before Brian or someone scolds me.

Getting rid of the Ph1?

You got my okay lol . Nice choice in scoob, you'll love it. I only wish I'd got one sooner.
Yep car's up for sale.

Cool, fingers crossed Torque GT can find me one.
Failing that it will be a mint classic V5 sti ra.

I've found myself looking at these more and more and more...

I think the blob eye is my favourite followed by the hawkeye.. All I'd want is the 4WD, 4 doors and decent power so thinking look out for a ready-modified WRX. Are they comfy?

Yeah, proper cruisers.

I was under the impression that a decent filter, exhaust and a remap by someone that knows what they're doing would take a standard WRX to around 260bhp, or is it the case that even at that power it's still slow because they're heavy cars?

Doesn't the STI weigh more than WRX though? Along with extra servicing costs (bigger brakes, DCCD) ? Or am I off the mark there.

I saw Daniel's for sale post of a blob eye 320hp WRX (had the turbo from an STI) for £4k. Pretty much all I'd be looking for!

As a rule of thumb you need 50bhp more in the heavier cars against say a classic. Standard uk classic imprezas arnt that quick by today's standards. In the later say wrx' they need to be close to 300bhp. Need a decent turbo, injectors, exhaust, remap etc

My sti blob was a standard 260bhp and felt rapid! I like classics but I'd go newage any day of the week. There's plenty of wrx about that have had the basic mods to take them to
250bho plus and these are hardly sluggish.

Looking at that picture you posted a few comments up, them springs will make it sit perfect.

Apex springs seem to be respected in the TT world. Not that it means much..lol! But they seem to sit well.
