So how did the spec c get involved :confused: Ian was asking about a WR1 v MY06 Sti. The Spec c is out of his chosen budget.

Morning Ian *Waves*

should of got a 1 - 353bhp:norty: and bags of torque!!for under 2k inc vat;)

nice-wrc i take it?i thought standard turbo was only rated to 350bhp or do you have a td05/06?

And you have never spent more on a car than you intended? ;)

And to add to T-Uk the Spec C also has slightly wider tyres to go with the sharper suspension set up. Oh and a twin scroll...

...all so last year ;)

...just the like the 2.5l so 2002 :D

Afternoon dude :D

forgot about the wider tyres.

should have mentioned the twin scroll too , being the reason the spec-c will probably be stronger low down and up top than the UK car.

one of the problems I feel with the "special edition" UK cars is why they do not use more of the JDM parts or even remove the better parts.

eg. wr1- take a my04 UK , spray a pish colour :p and fit dccd and springs .for the price , they should have given it a full spec-c engine and twin scroll imo.

I did but wouldn't again, I'd have a BMW Diesel and an AWD turbo monster.

John, so the M3 has gone already :eek: replaced with what now? What's the turbo monster?

F

Not gone already. Thinking of a mad project on T-uk's car.

Does he know about this 'plan' John...??

He's trying to talk me into it :)

Do tell :D

So here we go again .......

The WR1 cost no more than the sum of its parts, and you got cheap insurance! The colour is a matter of taste, as are gold alloys..... We all know you can get imports that are "better", depending upon your criteria. You pay your money etc....
