Nice, not really a fan of the ‘aero’ but looks mean.

I really want a JDM 2.0 one.

I go back n forth with thinking of selling my classic and getting a hatch sti. What I like is they’re still pretty basic/raw impreza underneath, more every day usable than a classic (due to age) and the hatchback is more practical than my saloon. Trouble is my classic is one of those cars you’d kick yourself selling.

Is it a 2.5?

Hi pal this is what sold the hatch for me i was originally looking at blobs but found the little bit more modern style inside the hatch that made me go this route. Yes its the 2.5 ive a bill for the forge build and mapped by Bob rawle. Ive put some money away for a rebuild as i want this to look after me for a good while

If you’ve got the money and can find one, buy a JDM 2.0 engine. If you never need it you’ll sell it easy enough and they’re a much better engine. Yes the 2.5 has torque but the way the 2.0 revs is awesome.

You got to be grounding that all the time.

Even if an ant sticks its arse in the air you will catch it.

That looks hardcore. I'm a fan of bags on the right car, but that looks much better in the first picture imo.

Oh, I like that...

I really enjoyed my hatch last year. Felt good to scratch that itch, yours sounds a similar spec (unless the deck is also closed, too). Mine had all the 'S' trimmings without actually being an S
