Default From Wagon to Forester!

Made the jump today from my 1995 Classic Impreza wagon to a 2001 Forester S Turbo. Should prove a better car for the kids, load carrying and towing the caravan. Not too sure how it will fair up everyday driving though. Thoughts to follow.

Congratulations on the mature choice!

Be worth getting over to the European section sf.org at Europe - Subaru Forester Owners Forum where I lurk a lot.

First step should be to bin the god aweful Yoko 'Geosquealer' stock tyres and an Sti rear ARB, after that its tuning time, the PPP on your engine made 211bhp, so you know what your shooting towards, but what I like is the boost at rpm way below that most Imprezas can only dream of! However if you want to chase the little ones, then the TD04 is a bolt in!
