Right, I've written to Subaru Singapore. There will be no comeback for him from this. I've given them his chassis number too, and asked for them to check if the car was ever sold in Singapore. Cars are so expensive in Singapore that I'm sure it has a Subaru Singapore service history, which should have the true mileage recorded up to a point.

Simon C, did you get a reply from Subaru Singapore?

this guy did not mention anything about his car being an STi. He simply stated that the interior moded into the STi interior and that's it

He obviously listed his car as (Subaru Impreza WRX Wr-ltd)

the 2nd thread guy does not purport to be selling an STI.

As stated its the WR edition.

the title of the auction says WR+STI... so its bullsh|ting as much as putting lots of bollocks keywords in an auction..

Regardless.. . WTF is a lighter turbo?! is it just plain smaller = worse? or 1kg lighter than normal STI or wRx... epic...>?!

No its just that quite a few tards own subies.

Seems to be getting that way huh?

Don't get me wrong, i think very highly of Subaru as a make, enjoy'd all my Cars, especially the Spec C, but does every non sti Subaru owner really think their car is ALL THAT? Just because there are a couple of really quick ones...

I mean, seriously, a WR model... ;D

Subaru themselves were so quick to distance it from the real performance cars, they dropped the 'X'.

It's just a plain WRX, in WRC blue with some plastic parts...

I mean, hell, i expect this from GSR owners (it's as quick as a EVO bro) but SUBARU...i thought there was more class...

I got a AA test on mr singapore's car, thinking it could be a cheap, good looking WRX with very low kms. Haha the $180 was worth it, just to here with the inspector said to me about not only the car but also the owner hahah gold pure gold. FYI the car has NOT done only 2X XXX kms ......not at all

the guy was passionate about how crap this car was. Although a guess he was pretty sure the car had done over 200,000 kms. "its shudders like an old truck, the gearbox feels like its going to fall out of the car every time i changed gear and it was fu*ken slow for a turbo car"!

Im a little racked off tho, it was decribed to me time and time again (by the owner) as 'like new' condition when clearly its not, this dude is a freakin goose - avoid

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
