due to taxregulations in belgium
i'm gonna have to go for a WRX plus version
without the backseats (they call this conversion: LV in belgium and all it means is that you don't have to pay the 3300pounds of registration tax on your scooby
(everything above 211bhp, and you pay that money, unless it's a LV conversion)

so i'm gonna change my WRX plus in a racer with the 3300pounds i just saved

But, since i do 30.000miles a year i need the warrenty so only approved mods are ok

what would you do?
and please give comments on my current list of mods

1)Prodrive Shortshift
2)PPP
3)downpipe (approved by my dealer)
4)Prodrive big brake kit (330mm 4pots)
5)Proflex adjustable suspension
6) if insurence allows it it's gonna be stripped down and rollcage and stack dash fitted

7) WRX style side mirrors



?

Its a "must have" option.

Loads better both sound and performance. Feels like a scooby after you've had it done

Question

Hey guys,

Just bought a bog standard WRX MY02 couple of weeks back... Being a newbie and my first post, I have read a bit about this PPP on scoobynet. Just wondering what it was and how much it costs?

Cheers

Jim

Cheers Phil,

I guess the already low mpg's are further reduced cause of the extra bhp...?!?

Not used to getting low 20's mpgs after swapping from an MR2 roadster!

Not just a backbox a decat centre aswell.
I had one on my UK300 and it was the dogs.
I agree with JZA ( but don't tell Phill(babber) ) it is a must have option.
