Next track car will be just that... big cube, FI, RWD and 1xxxwhp. BUt it'll be a couple years before I can convince the wife we can afford to do it again....
Had you went with the EJ257 in the beginning youdve been better off. More power, reliable, less headache, ect.

Baed on the front bumper and the ribbed hood it's a Turbo or Turbo S or a clone. The in the newer model the GTS has the Turbo nose but not the Turbo hood.

Nice, I hate to see you leave the Suby community, but I'm happy you've got a car you're happy with now.
