I had a R32 mate and prefer the subaru, much more fun to drive and way cheaper to run too.

2003 STI is a very good car.

Engine will easily handle 400bhp, and still drive like standard

yeh ....the idea for the GTR was to get it into the 10 sec bracket on the stip which would need 650 bhp +

what would the STI need to get there ???

The Impreza is not a born drag animal...... small displacement, 4 wheel drive, lots of transmission losses, Turbo in the wrong place, intercooler in the wrong place, wrong ratio's

It's a road car
