Just got back from a trip to Germany. My MY01 with PPP managed to clock 155 MPH on the speedo and it still felt like it had some to spare. Car has standard tyre sizes etc. Didn't catch the rev count unfortunetly and the opportunity did not present itself again (i.e. great visibility, no traffic and no speed restrictions...so YES I was taking every safety pre-caution!!)

Thats cool mate.Ive been flat out in my MY01 wrx without ppp and managed to clock 150 maybe more, i couldnt tell, i was concentrating on the road. A superbike was about 1 car length in front, no lie!! Despite everyone saying how slow the wrx is they seem to pretty fast to me.
