Supposedly better than my RX8. I have been babying due to break it. But, it has 250HP/and 250lbft of tourque, with a 2.5 liter semi-closed deck STI engine in it.

Lets just say I am expecting 5.5 0-60..and 13.5 quatermile..but I won't know till I break it in.

Also, I has the climate control on today on the higway and the car was in in fith gear and it still pulled like a frieght train when I needed to ecelerate.

Its definatly a STI engine in that thing.

Uh oh- looks like someone's jealous! I don't think it looks anything like a Taurus. But I do think you sound like a knucklehead :p

ok, young padawan - perhaps yoda can use the force to show you the light.

"Moron, you are. Taurus, it looks like...big way, it does."

jedimaster

Bite me, you will. Asshat you are

Jedimaster..what up dog! Let them hate its all good.

We know what's up.

Awesome car! Good looks, nice interior, and lots of power! I can't find anything I don't like about that car (except that it should have got the shorter JDM bumpers). Ford Taurus? It looks nothing like a Taurus. What model year?

jedimaster

I think it's badass! Everyone is entitled to thier opinion however. Also, I'm completely and 100%, unequivocally, without a doubt- correct :D

Thanks!! I love it, the engine pulls like a freight train. Well...it is a STI motor.

Worlds diffrent from the RX8, I love haveing tourque in every gear and not have to wring the heck out of my engine to get some power.

People seem to have issues witht the bumpers..not I.. I have issues with the "Wheal Gap", but that can be fixed in time. No big rush.

I am getting my STI short shifter installed on Monday, and I am going to debadge and take more pics this weekend. Also I am going to see if my old strut tower brace will fit... Mabey..mabey not..

Sorry - I DO see hints of the Taurus in there.

jedimaster

Oh crap- you're right! They both have four wheels :D

9-K Rever

HAHAHHA!

-8-

Oh crap! And look identical! :D :D :D

You probably won't get those 0-60 and 1/4 times until it get's cooler out. I love turbos but the damn heat just kills the hell out of it. I used to have a first gen Eclipse with a 20g turbo and in the middle of the day (even with that turbo) it stuggled, but it was a huge difference at night when the temps dropped 20 degrees. Congrats and I hope you have alot of fun. Did you trade the 8 in or is this your second car?

9-K Rever

Yeah, but I have been suprised on how strong this engine is. With the AC on on a 90degre day and the car is pulling like a mule.

Its also a 2.5 liter semi-opean deck engine...its crazy strong!! Plus, the body is made of a *** load of aluminum so its light as hell!

More pics to come over the weekend.

Hey, that thing got a Hemi? Ok sorry no.

But, is it a turbo-boxer-4 quad-vario-cam?

I hadn't realized they made Legacy sedans. Here in LA I only see Legacy wagons and Outbacks.. along with the normal hordes of WRXs and STis.

I think I should get one for my mum.

Hanzo

Now you just talk like a ghetto person.

Hanzo

50 series tires are too fat on the side wall, you'll get even more body roll than now and the side wall will eat away fast when you corner. Not a good profile for performance car.

jedimaster

That wasn't very nice. Hoser.

9-K Rever

Jedi..its okay! He's cool. He's been my friend since highschool...

He's jokeing. I can crack on his EVO with leaky door seals.

Talk about a Japanese car built on a Monday...YIKES...

HiTMaNN

japanese cars suck

Hanzo

Damn...

MikeW

This thing has variable exhaust valve timing?

Hanzo

Subaru uses AVCS (Active Valve Control System) variable valve timing technology to optimize the engine’s volumetric efficiency throughout the rev band.

9-K Rever

Yup..its a beast of an engine.
