Looks like the old faithful 2 litre engine is still going strong in the land of the rising sun

I'd just wish I'd have waited 3yrs for the JDM 2.0 instead of the 2.5uk

Worse thing is everyone said I'd regret getting a new UK

 

SIAL.

its looks **** anyway,seen blue and white looks so heavy like bmw,to small windows
they should put wrx concept alive

 

I wonder if anyone is going to import these?? Litchfields???

 

Only available with sh2ttronic transmission!

 

It is only the jdm WRX s4 that is only available with cvt, jdm STI gets 6 speed manual.

 

Really don't understand why subaru don't import the direct injection WRX over here, we get that engine in the forester, I'm sure it would be more of a hit than the troublesome 2.5, especially as it's more fuel efficient and has lower emissions.

 

Do we know how many 2.5's of the new Sti have been sold in the UK so far since May and of any reported problems yet?

 

You would hope after this amount of time subaru would have upgraded the head gasket and mapped it out of trouble but who knows, if any have gone shat themselves you can bet your life it would have been hushed up.
