WRX STI V8 INFO PRO's & CON's

[Pappu1]

Wat ? A twin scrol td04 on the legacy and they were as fast as a v8sti

Hmm As The MIZ Wud say - Really? Really?

The one I drove was smooth I will give it that but it didn't feel as fast as a v8 lol but yea it was just impression got nothing scientific abt that

And I'm not sure it is possible to get a 2003 v7 in Nz anyway as Nz new was only sold till 2002 and all jap imports certainly Wud not have had issues with old stock hein sold an year afterwards lol

Maybe possible in Aussie new but tough to believe it's here

Unless something doggy abt it lol

what should the chassis number be for a v8? and were v8s made from 2002? i always thought 2003?

Best identify by Model Year, not year of registration.

v8 was MY03, made from late 2002 until about mid-2004 when the MY05 v9 was released.

the mods we dont on this car is a 2004 BP manual... we in a vf37, modify ver8 sti manifold, pink injectors, decat downpipe and 3' exhuast... waiting for me to finish with my mods as we both getting our car reflash at the same time as a package deal

the BP is probably faster then my GC8GDB mods as the BP has got 4 AVCS heads same as V10STI... you think the twin headers sounds bad... you havent hear it when the avcs kicks in the BP.. its sounds like a bad tune honda but man its fast!

I could be swinging the legacy way at the moment, still cant make up my mind though.

I wouldnt buy that car, heard too much bad stuff about the cars at fast4s, along with seeing a fair amount of wrong'uns they sell.

First off obviously with that car is that your gonna need new tyres as its running on snows, which are shit in anything other than, suprisingly, SNOW!

[Pappu1]

Also there is no intake snorkel so the car is pulling in hot air

Who knows what else is missing if such basic details are not in

And have seen more than a few doggy cars come off there yard lol so he'll no to buying it from there

2003 ay

Bug eye ended production halfway in 2002 sk this must have been sitting in the yard for over 6 months ... Maybe as a well thrashed x demo Hahahah

Poor fellow who will own this and all it's hidden possible issues

For that money best to get an Sti lol

Thats well into v7 sti money, and its still a bug eye. Im surprised they can still sell these things.

[johnny5]

yup These guys prices are through the roof but you can talk em down as long as you know what your looking at then your right but if you dont by all means do not but from fast fours got a mate that purchased a wrx coupe from here it broke down so they gave him a HONDA accord r as a courtesy car and he thrashed the living shit out of it actually it was PLRH8D that thrashed it to
