Hi guys

I have a low milage Navara. Worth between 10-11k. I am looking at swapping or selling it for a 55-56 plate widetrack either blob or hawkeye sti.

Any advice?

 

Go for 55 plate blob . . . . cheaper tax, more reliable engine.

 

Rowdy are you thinking of the 2.5 wrx engine in the hawk?

 

I do love the look of the hawk at the front and to be honest. Standard power or prodrive map I would be quite happy with and maybe and exhaust for some more sounds. My only downfall is I will only be commuting 2 miles each way to work

 

Early Hawks are in the cheaper tax bracket but if your new to Scoob be more worried about fuel consumption.

 

Yes, well more specifically the STI engine in the hawk. The bigger turbo creates more pressure which makes HG issues more likely on STI than on WRX.

 

Oh really is there a big mpg difference between the two then?

 

My advice would be to pay and advertise in the right section

 

Yes I will be paying. Once I have decided and set my way.

 

JDM HAWK WRX has a strong 2.0 engine and should return 30mpg, maybe even 32-36mpg after a remap. Sourcing one may be an issue.

STI owners usually report 18-25mpg due to the short ratio box that also saps power.

Does anyone know if the 05 JDM BlobWRX is widetrack?

 

I wouldn't want an wrx. I would only want an sti. Me being me always has to have the best :-)

 

well not always or you wouldn't be in a navara lol

 

 

I also have a renault 5 gt turbo

 

If only hot hatches were old school like that

 

I prefer the Hawkeye look too, it only cost me 5k to rebuild and forge the engine

 

and you are buying an Impreza ?

 

Nissan, Subaru and Renault, you're a proper champaign charlie.
