Sorry - got your PM - YH PM back..

I'm just alluding to all those folk who import JDM STI's (classic Type R's etc) and run them on UK fuel, without knocklink etc..

I run mine on Optimax plus OB and it certainly goes faster than 125mph. Have you bought a duff un farmer as you said the version 5 brakes are worse than your MY95 wrx a while back? Its not a diesel is it?
