It's a question I would love to answer, but we didn't get a chance to have a play. Both cars running same power 400bhp so am hoping on our next meeting we can find out. We are also planning a track day after his warranty has ran out.

Impreza History would suggest the jdm car will have the edge. I'd be interested to see tho.

Not sure you can say that in this case though.
Well juggers, we're all waiting on that news, so keep us posted

Looking forward to having some fun

I've said before that I think the R205 despite its intention is more track focussed and the Cosworth better setup for UK roads. No doubt in my mind though that these are the two best Imprezas released to the public.

From the chap with an S204 that is high praise indeed.

Big thanks to Benno22 for supplying me with the EJ22 block! Will get it inspected and sent off for machining for some 14mm head studs and a rear thrust conversion. Now I need to decide what internals to go for!

There's only one to consider IMO

Turbo is an easy choice...

Good luck mate!
Don't forget I have a set of lateral race rods and 97.5 pistons (freshly powdercoated) that have only seen the dyno for sale! Possibly also a nitrided crank too.

Cheers

Can someone recommend a colour for BBS Forged alloys (S203/04 ALLOYS) Should I go gloss black, anthracite or gunmetal grey?
