2005 "55 Plate" STI UK, What's the Performance Figures?

0-60mph Time?
0-100mph Time?
BHP?
Torque?
MPG?


Many Thanks

Hi, I don't know what the figures are for a standard MY05 STI are but a PPP one is according to Prodrive as follows :-

0-60 = 4.7 seconds
0-100 = 12.6 seconds

301bhp
299lbft of torque

Some magazines have had 4.5 seconds to 60 and sub 12's for the 0-100 dash. Have a look on the Prodrive site as it gives you the figues for the STI with and without PPP installed.

These figures are off their brochure.
0 - 60 5.5 sec
bhp 265
torque 343 nm
mpg 18.2 33.2 25.4

If a STI is 0-60 in 4.7 why not get a PPP on the normal WRX as that is 4.8 according to Prodrive??? Do some people just like the big wing and gold wheels which shout LOOK AT ME!!!!!

N*UFO

Missing the point somewhat

OK your maybe right

Yes, yes i do

nik52wrx

Yep

^OPM^

an STI continues to be faster above that speed tho then a ppp'd WRX- the reason they are so close for 0-60 is that the WRX having only a 5-speed box can do it in 2nd gear whereas an STI with a 6-speed box has to make an extra gear change to 3rd

theboy

Fair enough i guess, maybe its just because i end up having to tell people that the prodrive WRX is just as quick. I guess people who dont know think its standard because it has no big wing. Perhaps i should buy some big prodrive stickers

i also like the bigger......

.turbo
.injectors
.intercooler
.scoop
.brembo brakes
.uprated suspension
.stronger internals
.pink badges, about 25 of them
and the fact that after a couple of simple mods it can be remapped to be a member of the 300 club.

theboy

Pink badges?????? You need to get out more. First thing i did with mine was remove the pink grille badge. Dont want people thinking i bat for the other side

With a name like 'TheBoy' I don't think taking the badge off helps the cause.

At least you have owned up to being a kid, i dont envy you when you come to insuring your first car!!!!

Bigger turbo = more lag.

Not so sure an Sti would be significantly quicker than a PPP'd WRX ; they'd have about the same bhp and torque, the STi has its 6 spd box, but then the WRX is around 100kg lighter. Sounds eeksie peeksie to me.

Go figure.

there is a fair bit in it in terms of in gear acceleration ( having just sold an PPP wrx 03 for an 03Prodrive STi) Sti is laggier but ultimitaly faster if you keep it on the boil, very nice car id say although i liked both cars for what they were, cant really go wrong with the new age chassis its a great car all round for my requirements

wilb

But if the maximum speed limit is 70 in the UK why would you need a car that's any faster than the WRX over 60?
I've always wondered though, how many of you modified STI owners have actually taken your car on a track to use the extra speed available over the limit? Might be worth a Poll thread.

I had a WRX STI Typr RA V-Limied 1999 Scoob before and just worried i wont be happy with the performance of a STI 9 STi, Do they have H.I.D Lights or can you mod them to have them

Bat-Fink

Am not a 'kid' thank you very much.
