Lol at the end of the day tho it's all about what you love! I'm thinking I'm about to be dealt a blow from my dsm....7 bolt garbage.

Do you have family? I've got 3 kids and I wish I could drive them comfortable in a "awesome " car; while I have them chilling in the A/C full blast.

Glass transmissions? I don't think a dsm has a better one stock. . But Wrx's are nowhere on my map skills

Just get an evo

Yes, i'm talking about the WRX 5speed. Not the STI 6speed. Not to say DSM transmissions are great, but they are superior to the subaru 5 speed. Especially the older ones.

Mucho denaro.
If I don't get a dsm I'll probaly get a newer gto. The ls motor is a good platform as well.

I have one of each the 5speed subaru tranny sucks mine is done at 120k on a all stock car ... I've had nothing but problems with my 06 xt (motor done at 75k) my dsm is still going strong and I beat on her all the time... Will never buy a Subaru again..

i bet if we all left 14b/t25 turbo's running 8-12psi on our cars they would be just as slow and reliable as any other car around.......


but we don't do that, do we? =D

This

Head gasket issues seems to be a common thing among Scoobys. Every craigslist ad I peruse always says something along the lines of "needs a headgasket change" or "burning coolant." Funny thing is one of the local guys got a Forrester with a supposedly WRX motor swap. On boost, he overheats and pushes coolant. Head gasket was recently done as well by the previous owner but I put money on the fact that it was improperly done. He saw the light and got an Evo X soon after.

yeah 20 psi kinda seems low for that much hp gunna be talking fully built engine with a big turbo to get to 500 safe

I've been visiting nasioc alot more since I've registered over a year ago. And I want a Sti!

6 speed and 2.5? Yeahhhhh
