Who has the fastest WRX bugeye in the UK? How does it compare to the STi7 (UK / Jap) in relation to power/torque/handling?

This version of the Impreza seems to be the forgotten relative.... I'd be interested to hear who's done what to their car.

Me ;)

TSL had one: I'm pretty sure it was Motek'd, and had their exhaust parts on it, but I'm not sure what sort of power it was giving?

David_Wallis 15 October 2003 06:33 PM

darren, callum, conrad, scott..

they all spring to mind.

Maybe a better question would be...

'What is going to be the fastest Bugeye WRX in the country'

Rob

RB5SCOTT 15 October 2003 09:50 PM

Darren, callum and conrad have got STI's though ;)

Just finished mapping with Pat and its pretty much there! Gonna try and get to Power Engineering this week and give it a run

I'm looking at about 380bhp with 340lb/ft, If i don't get these sort of figures, we shall 'Fist' it a bit more :D

Scott

Btw, It WILL kill a 400bhp STI 7/8 along the 1/4 :D

P20SPD 15 October 2003 10:06 PM

Ahh but Scott, will it kill a 360bhp Classic Wagon, as hey will beat a 400BHP sti7;):p

Take it you fixed the diff then:D

Steven

RB5SCOTT 15 October 2003 10:13 PM

I did think about your 12.1 Steven :) we should have a good race :D

Got a second hand diff for now, see how long that lasts :rolleyes:

Callum Ferguson 15 October 2003 11:30 PM

No aspirations to have the fastest bugeye in the country but it's getting better thanks to lots of people on here :D + Brian Downie who doesn't post but is an all round good bloke. No results until the RR day at Star :)

Next stage is to let Matt Clark loose on a 2.5 bottom end then encourage Bob have a play with his laptop & a Motec :D :D

Edcase 15 October 2003 11:39 PM

Who needs ultimate power???

I think the question really should be who has the best all-round bugeye in the UK. ;):D

JackClark 16 October 2003 12:49 AM

I have the fastest bugeye in Europe. In fact it's the fastest Impreza.

dan4 16 October 2003 07:12 AM

No you don't Jack! This bloke down the pub said that he did!

Rasher 16 October 2003 07:13 AM

nellie 16 October 2003 07:26 AM

Ah but my dad said mine cost more than yours!

dan4 16 October 2003 07:37 AM

Yeah, but my spolier is bigger than yours!

nellie 16 October 2003 07:46 AM

I'm sure it will be after talking to someone about it last night ;) - top quality staff working on it.

scooby_si 16 October 2003 08:19 AM

Surely the only differences between STi7's & WRX's have long gone since for example Darren started modding :confused: but it is one of the only good looking bug eyes i've come across ;)

Edcase 16 October 2003 10:18 AM

Grrrr...take that back! ;)

P20SPD 16 October 2003 10:24 AM

Burr, i know who you are refferring to, but i still think it will take some doing to beat Conrads/Callums or Darrens, and once Callum gets the 2.5 short block sorted, well err.

As for looks, well err... Ed's car;) (just to keep him happy)

Scott, sounds like you thought about it, but just dismissed it:p

Steven

BuRR 16 October 2003 11:54 AM

I know of some plans regarding that car, Steven, but I was mainly referring to the lack of performance figures for the non-Sti versions....

Will be interesting to see how the project evolves :)

David_Wallis 16 October 2003 12:42 PM

it will take a lot to compete with one that I know off :p

now where did I put my engine..

Wheres nick..

Upipio Fumio 16 October 2003 01:16 PM

gadget daz 16 October 2003 01:31 PM

BuRR 16 October 2003 01:32 PM

got any photos? sounds nice

JackClark 16 October 2003 01:49 PM

Hang on a second, does the most bhp = the fastest? I think not.

My car is the fastest Bugeye in Europe and it's under warranty.

scooby_si 16 October 2003 02:08 PM

If u want pikkies of Big Dazs ;) car then click on his profile & look on fotopik site (actually come on Daz u need sum more recent pikkies get yer TV's out ;)), alternatively just open any Japanese performance type mag or any of the other mags who's editors he has to seduce :eek: to get inside (the mag not the editor ;) lmfao)

Darrens is bloody quick Burr, if he took half the tart stuff out then it would be quicker:D

His run against me at Scooby Shoot Out.

Semifinal 2

Darrens is a cracking looking car, has more gadgets than you can imagine, and goes well:D
