Question

Not a Scooby but i fancied a change after writing off MY96 WRX (see "TREE 1 - SCOOBY 0" in general section).

It has a full de-cat system and APEXI coilovers, what do you think?

Always loved RX7's. This one looks very smart indeed. Bet it drives like a total beast on the road

It is a very balanced car(50-50 weight distribution) but in bad condition it can be tricky. Give me one ANYTIME (drooling).....

It rained all day yesterday so had to take it easy, every time i pushed the go-fast pedel the back end snaked but a little lift off sorted it out. Although it did spin its wheels at 90MPH!!!!!!!!!

It feels a lot less laggie than my old Scooby and the interior is very plush leather etc. Its a lot harder to get in and out off and when your in you feel like your in a real racer, but i still miss my scooby!

Anyway it looks nice and dry so i'm off for a blast.

PS the coilovers are rock hard and unsettle the car so i might have to plat with the settings.
