Default New Scooby Co Owner

Hi all

I have been building and racing Cosworth or Cosworth powered cars since 1989 and my wife has always hankered over a Scooby.
So after having various sports and performance cars over the last 7 years she finally got her car a week ago. I bought her a 03 WRX STi PPP in black with gold flecks in the paint. She is over the moon with the car and I am pretty impressed with it aswell, having had various 4x4 Cosworths.
I will stick to my Cosworth but will be driving her car aswell of course. I hope to get a few technical tips as this is all new to me.

Best of both worlds mate. I, like a lot of the owners of Scoobynet, grew up hankering after a decent Cossy!
In fact, my first scoob experience (standard UK Turbo) with a Sapphire Cos taught me some humility. Several days into ownership I thought I was king of the road! Not so - a full loaded Sapphire with five blokes up buzzed all over the back of my scoob before I conceded ungratiously - it then spat a few flames and disappeared like the SS Enterprise going into warp drive.

My latest motor was built to be capable of over 500BHP, just mapped to 450BHP at the mo as restricted to 7600revs, until I get used to that power through the rear wheels, Have been racing 4x4's until now
