Default Oh dear?!?

No offecne to this chap but thought I should bring it to the attention of you Sccobynet guys/gals.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1997-SUBARU-IM...QQcmdZViewItem

Not a big fan of the front bumper but each to thier own. Look further into the description and it says 190bhp at the FRONT WHEELS?!?!?!?

New diff needed maybe?

Dunno about the RST hiding in the garage but there must be a sniper hiding somewhere - the one who shot down the Sopwith Camel that's crash landed on the boot lid of the Scoob

And it looks as if he has put a front mount intercooler in the bumper, but hasn't connected it up? weird!

I'm seriously concerned about the classic. More and more of this kind of nonsense popping up and spotty little ***** ragging their 3k cr4p heaps around left, right and centre .

Good quality motors are struggling to realise sensible value's because of steaming turd piles like this. FFS, it has a non-operational FMIC and apparently has 190bhp at the front wheels. I want to find this car and burn it.



Thanks

my Q - Does this have the bi intercooling system found on the Latvian Spec Imprezas. I notice that it has 190 bhp going through the front wheels, do the front and rear wings help eliminate torque steer and do you have full ground effects? Awesome car man.

his answer - fcuck off you ****

Real answer - Hey
The car doesnt have the dual intercooling. No torque steer, i think it could handle A lot more power.
