Don't try and teach his grammar to suck eggs.

 

Makes for interesting reading

 

 

I always spell Grammar right dunno why i didn't there.

 

To "Muppets" for this one I reckon !

 

Lets try and save it

I`ve got an Evo 6. I`ve previously owned 2 classic imprezas and 2 bugeye Wrxs`s.
I wouldnt go back to a Subaru now to be quite honest, there`s not one in my budget i`d prefer over my current car.
Why do people keep banging on about AYC? How many people drive their Imprezas on the limit all the time? AYC will only come in to play when you have 4 wheels sliding, something that lots of owners wont probably ever experience. Hell, I cant even get this bastid sliding very easily, it just sticks to the road.
As for the great Impreza V Evo debates on who`s faster, thats down to individual drivers sometimes and how high they take their revs etc, how confident on twisties, what mods have been done, models base power etc etc etc.

As for bits falling off......... thats quite funny, Impreza bits dont actually technically fall off.....they get caught in the bottom end of the engine

 

i must agree with v5 man .most of the time its down to the driver,saying that ive not come up against an evo driver that can keep up with my classic import yet,but i am stunningly fast

No this is totally wrong. You need to read up about it.

 

Wow!! AYC will pull you tight around bends, transfer the power to non sliding wheels on slippery surfaces, bends etc at other times, so what? What im saying is the only time you`ll really feel the AYC is with all wheels sliding, as demonstrated by J.Clarkson on Top gear.
My Evo pulls the same around bends, or at the very least un-noticeably different, to all my Subaru`s.

 

It didnt bother me what the AYC actually did, and as you say you dont notice the thing unless you really push the car into the corners, it got on my nerves when you have to have the thing serviced every 4,5k miles! and if you use the car everyday like me then they come pretty quick, and as the thing never made a difference i would rather have a evo 6 or 7 RS or a Evo 9 GT that doesnt come with the AYC!

 

Id like to confess to having a play with an FQ300 on a 3 lane road. Same as someone else, he didnt pull away and I kept up. I was expecting to get left for dust but didnt. WRX RA Tommy Kaira, not a lot of mods, panel filter and decat thats it...

 

What do you reckon your bhp and car weight are Sizer ?

 

TBH I dont know at the last RR day it made 211bhp as the chip that was fitted is pants (peak boost 0.7 and then flatlined at 5k RPM, fuelling was terrible aswell), kept up with my old WRX though that was running 271bhp.

Changed the ECU for a standard Z4 until I can afford a decent chip to put in the SB ECU and runs a whole lot better now.

As for the weight, same as any RA I guess...

 

Sounds fun !
