It looks heavy for a trike. Its a very good conversion. Radiator is hidden very well.

Don't expect a triker to know what a WRX is as the narrator says it is ...I see single cam, no see a turbo, so Tonys words -EJ18 it may be! If they are nsw plates ....something is not quite right ....nice looking trike though, sounds OK - reverse gear looks bloody handy :)

Didn't some of the bottom base model Imprezas have EJ18's? Maybe he got the two mixed up :)

A fair chunk of trike that's for sure, bet it weighs a fair chunk too.
Will it ever end!?

Nice editing skills! Agree about that last bit Toonga!

It doesn't seem that quick in the vid, maybe this is the trick if the camera or he really wasn't giving it much - or that's all you get from an ej18, which is probably more to the point!

Cheers
