    S204 - Daily / occasional track-hack

    in General Vehicle Discussion

    Posted

    Hi. Thanks for entertaining this thread. It's quite interesting reading. The r205 looks quite interesting but I think I prefer the sedan....

    Lachlan, you are correct. I tried to change it but couldn't, realistically it's about 6-10 per year. I wish I could trackday once a week. That's definitely a goal for me. Haha

    I've heard that subaru seem to have an oil issue on the big right hander at Hamptons. Last turn before the straight. Can anyone comment on that? Is it an easy fix?

    there is also an R205 on TM at the moment. It is more or less the equivalent but a V11. Have driven this car, and it is the best STI i have ever been in. massive 6 pot brembo's on the front and 4 pots in the rear so stopping power is insane! has a pretty serious suspension set up from factory so nice and tight and sits flat on the road without being too hard. The power response is awesome too, just keeps pulling. the type of car that you don't need to do any mods too. Pretty much the ultimate STI.

    I tried searching for r205 but nothing came up. Can you post a link please.

    Thanks for the great responses. I'm keen on the s204 as i like the styling and the s204 looks like a nice spec. I'm probably in the fat ass side of the scale a little but don't think the seat will be a problem. I fit RS4 Recaros OK and they look similar.

    Does anyone have any idea on what the s204s sell for? I would prefer a solid standard spec car.

    Hi guys,

    I've been thinking about a S204 as a daily driver and track car. ( Only mods for Trackdays are pads and semi slicks)

    I really like the 2006 styling and Have wanted a STI for quite a while so thought I'd better get serious about it.

    Can anyone offer any advice on the ride and fuel consumption of a S204 or equivalent? I leave home at 645am in the mornings and leave work at 6pm. This is auckland traffic so please let me know if the car is quite harsh.

    Also what was the price that recent S204s have sold for?

    I'm quite excited as its a childhood dream to own a STI. I remember the Impreza 22B as my wall poster.

    Good times.

    Thanks,

    Nigel
