I don't think getting rid of the Evo will hurt them at all. If the sales of the Evo do not meet the expected targets and they're not planning to compete in the hot sedan market, then all the money thrown into things like AYC and SAWC which they don't provide for other vehicles is wasted. Put all tha...

Saw this over on evoxforums, sad news if true.

Considering that the cheapest I've seen normal steel UICP for were around $100, the Tomei seems like a decent pricefor some engine bay bling (or rice depending on how you think about it). Also the dull grey of the Tomei is the least likely of the above to attract attention from the police. I wouldn'...

How much does that combo of parts and tune cost?

Oh I'm not denying there's not a change in feeling - there definately is. Taken from the sprint booster website: How does the Sprint Booster Work? Sprint Booster is engineered to enhance the driving experience by providing increased acceleration time (eliminating delay) on drive-by-wire cars by cont...

If this is the same sprint booster as I've seen on other car sites, then it's pure and utter snake oil. Essentially what happens is it remaps your throttle positioning map so that for example 25% throttle no longer gives 25% but 40%, which you feel as improved acceleration and response. Correct me i...

I don't believe that was an offer for help, merely a suggestion that it can be done by those with the know how. Generally speaking you don't just go slap a tune on a car without some kind of tuning process (hence the phrase) either via a dyno or road + logging. From the sounds of it, what you're loo...

how do you get an ecu reflash? like fly the car to perth? sorry to be a noob. i want to get a reflash before a tune seeing ill be just doing a catback + intake. intake part is done just the cat back. couldnt decide on what muffler to use i dont want to be pushing the sst too much as its going to be...

They use the term sunroof there too, moonroof is a type of sunroof.

Exactly right Danny, so on those grounds I reckon the RA performed quite well. You haven't been paying too much attention to the 2011 STI: http://www.insideline.com/subaru/impreza-wrx-sti/2011/2011-subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-full-test-and-video.html For the TLDR people - the new 2011 STI is slower than...

Even in peak hour traffic if you're purposely driving to save fuel economy you'll find that your l/km won't increase by more than 10%. Like me for example, I'll drive 40km in bumper to bumper traffic every day and my combined fuel economy is still under 10l/100km (with a car rated at 10.6l/100km com...

just bumping, want some feedback While people can go on all day about technical car type things, in the end the biggest factor for fuel economy by far is how you drive it. It's about learning how to feather your throttle, reading the traffic ahead, less braking and more coasting. I used to be quite...

Out of curiosity what is your target hp?

As for is it legal, well is driving around with turbo legal?? I made a post about 'legal' stuff in the carbon fiber thread and most likely this form of heavy modifications will fall into that category. It is not illegal you just may not be able to register it without an engineers certificate. Not b...

As for FWD, the format has come a long long way in the last decade. The format is highly advanced compared to what it use to be. There is no reason to be against the format. Ive said it once before in another thread; people here are quick to bash on the FWD format yet majority own a FWD car; includ...
