Spec C, R205 and Cosworth are all the ones to have if you have the option and deep enough pockets!

Add the 20th anniversary to the list and remove the A line.

And id still take a JDM 2.0 over a cosworth 2.5

Or you can get a JDM wrx hatch GT which is still a 2.0 with differing setup but still twinscroll

The two best models are the R205 and the Cosworth. Both quite different animals but amount to the same thing.

Be prepared for some serious outlay if you're after either of them, they're a bit more expensive than the average Impreza.

What about the spec c. ?

push button start cars and keyless entry is the way forward

shamkhan1

salsa-king

it all comes down to what you want to spend on buying the car... and what you want to do with it.. and do you want to 'improve' the car you buy.

330s ??

shamkhan1

The 330S has Sat Nav, different wheels and the Recaro seats as well as the 330bhp engine upgrade.

Anyone know what prices would a 2.0 twinscroll JDM hatch fetch. Preferably STi flavour or variants of it.

And where the hell to find them....too much UKDM stuff in the 'trader and classifieds and what is in there is badly/vaguely descibed....I don't want a single scoll nor a 2.5.



I belive the STi-A line is a 2.5 automatic...urggh

they are 325bhp (330ps) with 349 lbT in the brochure. (std STi is 300bhp)


saying that, I was RR'd at 319.4bhp with 359lbT on a std 330s with just a ProR air filter

Good power and torque.

What did the car make?

salsa-king

quite pleased, as outside temp and the roller set up can give different readings.

I prefer my key and an engine that wont **** itself, each to there own

If you don't mind a windscreen made of tupperware and an interior made from plant bed wadding, it's awesome.
