UK or JDM?
 

Evening gents,

Have friend in the market for a blob eye STI.

He was taking about getting a UK one however for some reason I remember JDM being the right choice to make here and I can't remember.

In a nutshell, which is better and why?! Also I have advised him to avoid 2.5's.

One more thing, I tried justifying STI's over WRX's to him but got lost after the minor tweaks with brakes, engine etc... so... what are all the differences... how do I sell it to him!

Big ask, many an argument ahead but I want what is right for him so this is the place for the answers.

Thanks,

Rob

id go JDM all day long mate, there is so slight differences but the jap cars seem to be better looked after.

With you there, they seem to be more @!/)@- don't know really

agreed mate

Once the SN shower of sh1t gets a hold of any scooby its much of a muchness.....

Just get one that's been proovably well looked after.

The JDM cars had a rear wiper, twin scroll turbo and equal length manifolds but I'm not sure what else. :wonder:

Thanks lads, not a lot then in a nutshell, just the usual 'if the owner looks like he has been forced into it, then that's a good' sign type buy then!

There can be loads of differences, depending on model year and model type, between a UK and JDM.
