top speed uk my97
hi all im not expecting a rapid response due to how slow site is running at present.but the car isnt being driven untill questions are answered just in case.
so here goes,supposing i have a friend who on a private piece of road managed to get around 140mph out of his impreza,and then a few weeks later his gearbox gave up and had to have a rebuild on it,for the rebuild he had to have a third gear fitted to repair it,and that gear came from a wrx import ans was fitted into a uk spec.and then the car drove fine,however when he visited the private land again his top mph was only 120! coulod this be down to the new gear that was fitted or is it likely to be some other problem?

Not sure about the WRX gearing but that's about right for a UK model, if it won't pull above that then there's some other non-gearbox (probably engine) related problem, needs looking at ASAP I would suggest.
