Excuse my ignorance but what's the difference between a WRX and Turbo2000 Classic shapes?

Slightly better spec on the wrx (import only obviously),better interior,more power ,different gear ratios (i think).

Cheers, yeah thought it was import and slightly more power

Think they're around 240-250 standard. Maybe someone can explain engine spec differences to account for it.

wrx 240ps to 280ps
Turbo 2000 208bhp - 215 bhp

Pretty sure there is no difference betwwen the engines just the ecu mapping but I'm not sure.

Just remember thats those figures for a japanese import are based on japanese fuel which is 102ron I think.

mac12

was it 102ron 15 years ago when the pre facelift classic was starting out,
i had a z4 ecu fitted out of a 95/96 wrx and that showed no knock activity in 12 months running it on v power 98 ron (no booster)with a full decat.
in my experience the early imports are fine on v power or tescos 99ron even with a full decat,im sure it wasnt that high a do ron ron rating in japan for the pre facelift classic anyway.
