But will you like the increased guy attention

Increased nobody attention moar liek.

Occasional glance/thumbs up from another turbo subi owner otherwise pretty much nobody looks at it. Really is a WRX in grandads jumper and it's so good. Pulled over driving it once on my P's and cop let me off with nothing even though I could've lost my license. Been through 2 breathos and even with a loud exhaust just go through like anybody else. Less police attention than the quiet as a mouse bog stock NA 4 door skyline. Less joe average attention too.

turbo subarus before they were cool.

ive never seen anyone thumbs-up any other car ever before. actually, except when someone on a bike thumbs-up when i was in an exige.

all i ever see is this:

or

The car I've seen the most thumbs up while travelling in has been either of my dad's Cobra replicas

They seem to be universally appreciated by all kinds of people of all ages and people love making it known to you

Second was a mint condition HT Monaro GTS with a 427 that I took for a test drive...bogans were hanging out of their cars for that one

What do i need to 200awkw it?

If it's an original RS engine afaik the heads don't flow all that well soonly capable of ~180kw atw.

Plenty of em had the noisy lifter recall(Which only happened if people complained) where they stuck early WRX heads & pistons. Those or anything else shouldn't need much. Fairly usual stuff, TD05-Big 16G/18G/VF23/VF22/VF34 etc, fuel pump, injectors, 3" turbo back, tune, maybe an fmic.

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
