RB320 tail out, possible in Spec C?
I am currently considering one of these two cars mid this year.The RB320 has adjustable rear suspension (adjustable rear strut bar IIRC) so can be nose pointy 4wd style for daily driving a can be adjusted for a little tail swinging fun for trackdays: see clip below
YouTube - Subaru impreza sti Rb320 being chased by M-Coupe evo
As well as that it has the adjustable diff as well as I think
In a 2006 Spec C is it possible to get the rear end out on a track like RB320 in video. Does it have adjustable rear strut & dcdd diff controller?
Apologies for mistakes in what I have said as I have never owned a Scooby.

I'm not sure if the 320 has an adjustable rear ARB (not strut) or not, the cnetre diff locking is adjustable, more locking gives more understeer, less locking gets the tail out due to the rear torque bias (the torque split stays the same though, its is NOT adjusted by the DCCD, that only affects the limited slip function and therefore the torque bias when one axle is trying to turn faster than the other.

The thing I found was the hotter the RE070's got, the grippier they got, so when cold its pretty easy to get the tail right out, when hot it still will, just not to a great extent.

As exciting as tail out stuff is its much, much slower than good balanced cornering. The chase car is never an m-coupe I have driven a 400bhp one at Bruntigthorpe and it didnt go, sound or handle like that.
The RB320 is an amazing road car though a great balance of everything and looks awesome.

mate save yourself a fortune,i can't keep my 95 sti ra in a straight line! takes me back to my ae86 twin cam days.....but seriously,if your commited you should have no bother getting a newage jdm/uk spec sti to do some drifting.

The settings on a JDM Newage center diff control are tame to say the least compared to a classic. You want to try out a Classic Type R with the diff fully open...... different kettle of fish altogether!!!
