I know Yuri is new to the these forums but I am not.
Yuri's been a close mate of mine for over 15 years.
I was scared in this car when he first got it and took me for a spin.. I didn't have a license back then so that wasn't hard.
the week he bought this car back, he took me for another spin.
now I know alot of you might say yeh yeh, but I kid you not, I am yet to go in to another car that can be driven controllebly with this sort of handling and grip.
158 all wheel kw doesn't sound like much.
and I guess if you are a 1/4 mile bro kinda person, this car is not for you.
but if you are after a car that can idle along with traffic then be able to consistantly run 1:10's around wakefield on street tyres, then this is definitely for you.
subaru understeer is pretty much non existant with the suspension mods.
the gearbox and diff ratios, and ball bearig turbo (yes yuri vf23 is Ball bearing not roller bearing) makes this RS one that doesn't have the laggy feel below 3000rpm like other are.
anyway, for $12K, I doubt you'll find another car that can do the same thing.
actually, for $12K, you'll get an RS with exhaust and rims and king springs from the trading post.
I'll finish by saying that Yuri sucks for putting this up for sale a month after I bought something else, after I begged him to sell it to me earlier.
