I've owned 3 and they are amazing cars. I think the JDM hatch backs are the best kept Subaru secret, great all round cars.

Very nice in white .

S204Darren 09 January 2018 07:52 PM

My favourite is the yellow then blue and then the white but all look good. The hatch is so understated for a Subaru and that's what makes it the perfect car for me to razz around in under the radar.

Dave Y 09 January 2018 07:55 PM

You didn't put a picture up of a yellow one.
I could be swayed.

**jay** 10 January 2018 08:43 AM

Think one of these is the only thing that would sway me too sell my spec c ra for, they have grown on me a bit :)

I'm not too fond on these in standard form, think they need some nice alloys, lowering to give it the looks.




However do you think this has a better drive then the golf r ?

Nor before its even hit our shores, Darren you've been a very lucky man to have owned some nice cars there. Although I've not had a JDM hatch I was very impressed with the 330s I had, looked at getting another yet finding one with a forged engine was tough so started looking at the offerings from Hurst cars as they had a couple of jdms in which weren't that much more than some of the forged 330s I saw.

Ended up with a golf r in the end as it's under warranty and wanted piece of mind as I'd had a turbulent 12 months work related.

The new owner will be very happy with it I'm sure

sonic93 11 January 2018 06:52 PM

Hmmm Darren we know yellow is fastest to

330's have a great spec ('Prodrive pack', Recaro's, push button start, sat nav, 18" wheels, nicer looking exhaust etc)

And what about that power. 470 N.m (@3,400 rpm) is some grunt, and that's without any tweaking

Compare that to a Spec C at a mere 422Nm (304hp)

I nearly bought a forged 330S, but decided, ultimately the 2.5 was a plodder compared to the 2.0 twin scroll ;)

RAGGY DOO 11 January 2018 09:39 PM

The thing I like about Jdm hatches is the exclusivity of them
I believe I am the only person in eire with a Jdm hatch
Not against importing them but ....

hedgecutter, very nice. I see your Spec C has a red starter button instead of a normal key which if I am not mistaken only 20th anniversary ones have (and perhaps R205s?), was that an option?

RAGGY DOO 12 January 2018 11:58 AM

Red starter button in normal Jdm hatch aswell if anyone cares lol

bonesetter 12 January 2018 12:52 PM

And the 330S

Thanks Don, I remember you mentioning something about the start buttons a while ago and I remember you changing the one in yours with the red one :thumb::D
I've replied to your mail :)
