Yeah the new WRX looks terrible. But I still say the new STi has potential.

If the STI looked like that pic put me down for one BUT i think it will look more like the

stupid smiling grill thing like the Ring pic posted earlier.

Going by the pics the EVO wins hands down

Looks like i'm keeping the classic forever :thumbsup:

On the earlier STI i have seen either foggies or the covers but then i think it became a STI thing to just have the covers plus its another spot to put some STI stickers.

BTW its Gaz not Alycia ireally should get my own membership :thumbsup:

I saw it in Japan in january. Took these snaps below. It looks pretty cool. A little to 'new-age' and 'edgey' for me. but hey, they have always been a bit of a homo's car....

hmmmm honestly i doubt that will be the production STi... its waaaay too different from the actual WRX which means thats obviously the WRC car.

much like the WRC version of the ugliest ever, the bugeye, it actually looks half decent.

yeah, I think the pics I took were of the concept version. production version probably is toned down a bit and has an uglier girl standing next to it. or even worse, no girl at all. :P

That pic has being doing the round on the internerd for the last few years. There is no way in hell that Suabru will produce somthing even close to that very bad photochop.

Subaru have recently made a deal with Daewoo and Hyundai. Suabru will be borrowing the ugly stick from those 2 companys and using it on all of there new cars.... Here's just a peak at what Subaru have been making recently...

There's alot of subaru people hoping then new STi will be better looking than the newly released WRX, but really it's hard to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

Oh and the new WRX.... with a Mazda3 over the top....

I think the X looks great and will be very keen to have a go when they come out.

But have been thinking I'd like to take a look at something a bit different...

3.0L

6-cyl

twin turbo

RWD

and German

The BMW 135i Coupe - http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/bmw_135i.asp

Something about them is pretty cool - I always loved 2002s, and this looks like a grown up version.

BUT... we'll see. Evo X still top of the list for mine, and we'll have the E90 M3 at work soon - so I can always play with that :stupid:

my old man restored a 2002 tii.. then sold it :stupid:

it was red with a creme leather interior. SO nice....

I was going to wait and buy a X...but local dealer could not comment on whether available in auto. So armed with cash from selling my R34 GTR...i was purchased a V35 which i soon to convert with GTR motor and AWD using V35 gearbox. Looks and performance of latest Nismo Nissan with comfort and performance of auto. Much better then Mitsubishi.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
