Hi all
thinking of getting a 1998 R reg subaru

It is advwrised as a UK turbo but it also has air con!
I am a little confused now as i thought Uk models did not come with air con!

could someone please let me know the differences between Uk and Import!

eg what spec as standard?

What BHP as standard?

Which is better?

all info greatly appreciated lol

many thanks

import better bhp but they sting you for insurance and no fogs on import either

BLACK V5

BHP my98 UK =208. Import = 276. Thats for saloons.
Uk gets headlamp washers.
Import gets Folding mirrors, Rear wiper.

bingz

so what would it take to BHP up to the import spec or better?

what would i need?

How much would it cost?

burnhamshaun

blimey is that all a uk is 208 standard and import 276 standard so mine must be 300+bhp

bingz

and also which is the better?

burnhamshaun

1998 Uk = TD04
1998 import = vf22 or vf 29

Air con was an optional extra on uk cars imports came with climate control
