Message I've seen posts about the ZTT, Supra TT, RX7, Vette, F bodies, NSX, S2000, M Coupe.... Pretty much you name the car and there's been a post about someone test driving it and thought it was slow. Mainly because every car drives and feels different.
A single exhaust with 3 cats is the biggest thing holding a stock WRX back. From what I've been seeing, guys are dropping the cats, removing their intake silencer, putting a high flow $40 K&N filter, and running a mid 13 1/4 on all season tires heheheh. Also, there's an STI 6-speed tranny that I hear bolts right up. So far the cheapest I've seen it is $6500! ouch, but I have a feeling it will drop soon.... won't that be sweet!
For <$24K and it's performance potential..... who needs a weekend fun car?! It's a beater, commuter, and track car all in one =)
