Hi mate

welcome to the clan

Don't worry about not having a scooby yet, just come along to the meets, and make your presence known

Welcome to the ESC

I only met some of the chaps and chapesses at the lodge a couple of weeks back, and they/we really are a friendly bunch.

My advice would be to go for a STI, as they have stronger closed deck engines, and you can push them further tuning wise than WRX's.

In hind sight, I would of got a STI, but am happy with my WRX - 312BHP

Although Tinys is not an STI, its just as quick with a few mods.

So an STI is not the be all and end all if you cant find one
