cool. i posted on here, but didnt really expect anyone to reply!

which one was the MY02? the new looking wrx one? or the classic looking one?
Yeah ive had an mi16 conversion, and had fast road cams. so ive got 195bph/tonne. Theoreticallyi should be as quick as a wrx scooby, but ive never really had a comparison with one before.

The classic shape one had a good run with me up the hill, and then along the straight, and i think we were about even.

you guys were doing about 120 around a sweeping bend at one point! and thats not really 205 territory though. I didnt feel very confident in my little pug at that sorta speed! And the girlfriend wasnt happy!

Cool. i enjoyed that last night! hehe.

so is my02 just another term for the new shape wrx?
just how quick are they then? how do they compare to golf R32s and Civic type Rs etc?

Its a mighty looking beast, is that tailpipe sandard?

MY stands for Manufacturers Year . So MY02 is obviously built in 2002. Classics go up to MY00. The third generation with the new look headlights started in 2003. Only had my scoob for about a month, still things to do to it.
I got a new spoiler in the paint shop at the mo. The zorst is not std, its a Ninja back box.

As for performance compared to R32 etc, you better ask someone who knows a bit more about em. Its quick enough for me at the mo, although I will be chipping it once my warranty runs out.
