Yes, very nice.

As regards the rims, they're ok but I reckon you could find some better ones. 17" WRX alloys look good.

Thanks for the kind comments guys.

I had the option between the standard GTB 17's, with poor rubber, or for a little extra, the 18's with 90% rubber.

When the rubber runs out, I'll be going back to 17".

Rob - Yes. I bumped the thread, he didn't answer, so I decided to drop him a line. Darren, the previous owner, is a top bloke, and a real subaru enthousiast. Was selling this one to make way for a Gen3 GTB E-Tune (uber rare!)

jono - GT-B: B designates "Bilstein" Spec. Has bilstein suspension, and the engine has some factory STi additions - stronger box (?V3 Sti), forged pistons, yellowtop 440cc injectors, and probably other things I have forgotton to mention.

Also has a Sti strut brace.

First mod has already been performed... a DVD player!

Next mod... ricey blow off valve!!

Hey mate, bloody nice ride your pushing. But instead i was wondering what it sounds like, whats under the hood? a ej22T ? 3" cannon on the back? must sound meaty i bet... if u get the chance and can be bothered, would be sweet if you could post a video clip with sound or just a sound clip of it changing gears. Compare against the old ea82 with an exaust...

cheers mate,
