Be an interesting concept though in very limited numbers 22B style .

The hard part won't be getting 395 hp from 2.5 liters it'll be getting the ally superstructure to do it reliably .
Also one hopes that they can get a bit more structural rigidity into a long split cased gearbox .

I think performance wise heads manifolds and turbocharging will be where its at , the revolving and reciprocating bits will be there for reliability .

You can double the 40 sterling to 80+ pacific paseos and throw 20+ on top for good luck .

100 000+ for an Impreza anyone ?

Unless they plan on cutting the door frames off they are wasting their F&%K&$G time!! Bring back the MY99, A Subaru with door frames is not a Subaru at all. I guess we can blame GM, or Toyota for that. Might as well go and buy a mazda3!
The trading corner : the stuff that I need ATM -
# Vortex Main Dash Surround / Bezel ANY COLOUR,
# Vortex Radio, # RHD Vortex 4speed auto digital dash,
# RH-Side parking (86+) Vortex wiper transmission,
# EA82 AWD 4EAT,
If you have them please PM me :cool:
