z1000 Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Guaranteed to be at the end so you have to sit through the rest of it first.
dipsy Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 I just watched it good piece of kit that is .I need a lottery win .I like the sound of the exhaust .I wonder if that system would make the same noise on the 05 jdm sti i have
Dougie C Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 OOOOOOooohhhhh looks and sounds lovely!!!!!!!! Just need to win the lottery now guys and girls Dougie
westtra Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 I want that as my next impreza. Has everything you'd want in an impreza.
fai17 Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Looks and sounds so good......Jason drives to so well that even my wife likes it.[] But i still want a S204[]
Guest Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 missed it [] is it worth trying to catch the repeat showing (anyone know when it is) graham
WHITEUK Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Type 25 is some machine underneath but the one they had was far too plain for my liking[] 40 k can be far better spent in my opinion glad i didn't buy one[] J

STi_Bandit Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Does a 40k one come with a three year warranty [] hehehe Bandit
gubderSTI Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 That is 1 hell of a machine , love it Steve
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Fark........I am in the Netherlands just now so will have to wait a day to see this............no doubt it will get onto Youtube at some point though ! Where did he drive the car - road, track or both ? CGS
craig mac Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Quote I recon i can get a faster/more powerful for 40k Peter, You are practically driving one now, and not spent anything near 40k m8 [] Buy an STi for 23k throw 6k approx at it in mods and you will match, if not better this. I really dont see what all the hype is about TBH. And i am sure that Higgy will not be spending any where near that money and am more than sure he will better these power figures. []
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 Yeah I suppose I am inclined to agree but I suppose you are ultimely paying for all of the testing, Cosworth involvement etc etc. But when you compare £40k to an M3 it seems like a bargain. Was is the Spec C version they had ? http://www.type-25.co.uk/ For £30k you could probably build an equivalent car though ....................whats sorta warranty does the T25 come with Cheers CGS
STi_Bandit Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 mmmm how tempting is that Bandit http://www.powerstation.org.uk/subaru_cosworth.asp
st3ph3n Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 You can match the power and torque of this car for less, but are you getting the cosworth 2.5 and trick suspension? 400/400 out of that block is surely extremely conservative, and ultimately limited by the top mount? I'd love to see the cosworth 2.5 hooked up to a front mount and given a few more tweaks. Surely you'd see over 500 for that kind of spec. All in all though - I'd sell my kidneys for a type 25 with the porsche brakes upgrade of course.
fai17 Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 The porker brake kit would cost you £2500 max...heard the suspension is quite expensive but cosworth engine parts is not that costly/best,it's just that they charge a fortune for it because of warranty. For 15k on mods...think we can do better but no warranty

Guest Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 legend andy was gutted id missed that aswell 40k is alot of money but i would be like owning a 22B rare and exclusive at the end of the day u could build a 22B replica out of a type-r but it would never be an actual 22B. or u could build a litchfield T25 copy but it's still an sti wanting to be something it's not!!
ScoobySounds Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 thanks for the vid there andy! I got a frantic phone call last night telling me to tune in, but missed it, and was gutted, so i'm real glad to have caught it now!
