Please can anyone who has had dealings with buying Jap imports from LS PRESTIGE PERFORMANCE tell me if they are any good?

I was talking to a sales guy there and he says he is well known and many people have bought Impreza,s, skylines, GTO, FTO, etc from him who use various jap car forums.

I have put a deposit on the car but thought i would see what people out there knew before i traded in my beloved Saxo turbo for a Impreza.

CHEERS

saxo turbo ? whats the spec on the engine and performance? Sorry to go off topic

The saxo is a VTR turbo running 12 PSI, it has had EVERYTHING uprated! internals, lowered compression, garrett turbo, pace intercooler, water injection, custom exhaust brembo brakes, etc, etc

it has not been rolling roaded since the MF2 and water injection was installed and set up running 12 PSI (back then it was only running 6PSI) and it was running 158BHP so i guess it is running about 180 ish now

i bet youv'e shocked a few bigger cars in it

LOL,

A fair few, the saxo is quick (for a saxo), i have recorded 60 in 6.2 (fastest ever, averages 6.5) but it starts to lag when it hits 120, think thats cos it is quite a small turbo ans only a 1.6 engine.

I need a Scooby so i can start all over again but with a car that is already very fast

I went from a fiesta Zetec-S (MK5) with Turbo, Cams and NOS (running at 153BHP & 200BHP with NOS) to my scooby...... well worth the upgrade
