Hi Everyone,
I have recently bought Nitos silver Impreza wagon and was wondering what people think of it? I love it to bits, so much better than my 215 bhp Turbo. If anyone does know this car please let me know your opinions?
Thanks,
Iain.

Thumbs up

I have been out in your car, and it was the inspiration for me to do the work I've done to mine. At the time Nito's was the only wagon putting out over 320 bhp, and was the target for me. However, whilst I was doing this, there were quite a few others doing it at the same time unbeknown (sp?) to myself (Harvey, David Wallis, P20SPD) so my overall objective was not met, but, the car I have is still superb.

It is certainly one nice motor you have there, and I hope you enjoy driving it.

Cheers Scott.

Is there anyone else out there with Turbo 2000 cars pushing silly amounts of power?

There's a few - Harvey is over 400bhp (STi Wagon), David Wallis was about 340-350ish, and this will be quite a lot larger from what I've read. P20SPD is around the 340ish, and I'm just over 350bhp.

You'll have to go along to the next Surrey Meet or something, as it will be good to meet you. When I make it to one - mental note - must attend another one soon!

WOW - 400 bhp. I will have to see that one one day!
Yeah - I will definitely be going to most meets from now on.
Look forward to seeing all you wagon owners soon!

1 slow wagon

I made the mistake of sitting in Nitos car at TOTB last August, his car and a few others spurred me to do this to mine.

Scot, drop me a mail too please, would like to compare

Scotsman, Nitos spec was quite high IIRC, ask in drivetrain and they will advise who best to speak to etc re improving your car further.

You got your car from Nito right!

How's the water problem, was the manifold crack fixed and did he change the vin plates over?
