I was driving home from work the other day and saw a Subaru Impreza RS and it got me thinking....."Gee they suck" and then "By golly Adz, we've never seen a WRX on the roads".

Has ANYONE seen one of the roads? I'm sure they are out there but I've never seen on and I drive at least 2 hours a day. Maybe due to the immense quantity of suckage there has been a really slow uptake? Maybe no one wants a boxer powered turbo charged Madza 3.

I know I don't :(

i've seen heaps up here in sydney...but i also work for subaru...but there's heaps driving round..i've also seen the new sti's

Looks like a Proton to me...It's hard to pick them out from the crowd now they look like all the other japanese-korean compacts.

They were u-g-l-y before but atleast they were individual in their uglyness.

The new pedestrian impact laws have a lot to answer for also..so many tall ugly cars being designed to conform to the "new" safety standards.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
