It handles VERY well, with AST coiliovers much more comfortable and handles better. IMHO. I found the STD spec C suspension far to stiff for the shote UK roads.

Cheers Tony. That's what I was wondering about as I'd read you were swapping out the suspension. What did you do with the unused ones? Surely they'd be worth a few quid?

Ask Steve when you are at Coleshill, he may even be prepared to sell you the complete fitting kit .
Already asked can't take cash so must go through dealer or so he said anyway I'll ask again when I'm down tomorrow

If any of u dealers are looking any of u wanna start selling me parts at not much markup from Subaru my dealer has been 100% but this isn't an area their good in

The thing is your dealer/parts dept, needs to speak to him to get the correct info in order to order it for you.

Does what is says on the can. 319.9 bhp @ 5600 rpm just short of 330 Ftlb torque @ 4200 rpm running on vpower. No difference in sports or sports sharp, in fact sports gave the highest run. 18psi boost @ 3700 rpm. They run very rich.
Big thanks to Kev and the guys at Scoobyclinic.

Non of my wheel phone buttons work so far with iphone.

Well I hope the steering wheel controls can be sorted or mine is going back
The wife wanted a car with a few more creature comforts, hence cruise, audio controls to match my works van and phone controls.
Due to the condition of the new car on delivery, if we cannot sort the extras we want the wagon back
How can you sell a car with the buttons but not say they dont work

Lol. Think a wasp went in the air intake. Conditions were quite good as well. Probably safe to make em breath a bit freeer with intake and decat without remap.

There is definately something wrong with the connections on your car. There is no reason why they shouldn't work properly. I'd take it back and get them to fix it.

My 320r runs completely different in sport and sport sharp with a significant increase in sport sharp over sport.... Strange unless you have a re-map....

That is because in Sport # the throttle responce has been "sharpened" to give WOT at 55% of throttle pedal travel. No other difference in the mapping.

A couple of articles which you may find interesting.....

Although the first relates to the Legacy Si Drive it equally applies to that fitted to the Impreza STi and WRX STi.

When Dunc mapped my STI he said in addition to the quicker throttle response there is also a greater boost demand lower down the rev range... and looking at those graphs the boost/fueling climbs sooner and tails off later, backing up that statement?

I agree in 4th and S at 2Krpm ish with 100% WOT, as engine reached 2.5krpm ish, I turned dial to S# and instantly had an increase of boost, So not just FBW throttle adjustment but also boost control. IMHO

My old T20 was all "Go" and no "Show" but the 320R will be all "Show" and no "Go"

Due to the very Sh1te roads round my way, JDM suspension can be a bit harsh. So I fitted adjustable AST suspension and a lot softer now. It is also a little lower than standard.

I was waiting for the Pro-R kit to come out which would mean I kept warrenty on the Suspension but seem to be a bit slow of the mark IMHO
