Is it now a prerequisite that all WRX owners smoke crack? (these guys have big big issues - they have STI envy AND JDM Envy, I bet their mothers dont even like them!)
Finally found a thread discussing the JDM 2.0 STI and the UK 2.5 STI... not the outcome I expected! Can anyone let me know where there is solid info? not just peoples opinions with videos on drag strips? Things I'm interested are relate to servicing differences, how easy/hard is it to get parts for the JDM engine in the UK? What are they both like to live with for someone whos not a racing legend? Further expanding on that what's a better drive the Hatch or the Saloon again does the engine make any difference to that(when I saw better what turns in sharper? What rides better? What has more supportive seats?) Does the 2.5 have more torque due to the higher capacity or is the 2.0 running most boost to give it more power and torque?
Sorry about the bump of an old thread, I'm getting desperate for info.

No, you found a thread where our local WRX troll is making himself look stupid!
There are TONNES of threads about the superiority if the JDM engine, and the JDM variants of the Impreza, the search engine is a wonderful tool.
You probably wont ever need parts for the JDM engine - thats one of the benefits.
