oh aye... didnt say what it was
.. another Impreza 2dr TypeR
22B body, full cage, seam welded
Will have to build an engine, but suspension etc etc etc... but its a pretty well sorted rolling shell that saves us having to do a lot of prep work. No doubt we'll need to go backwards to go forwards on a few things but we'll asses that when we see it in the flesh.

... why?
.. because it isn't an Evo?
Its a newer chassis, lighter, better on a lot of tracks (from experience). We know them.

Corsadonk - why?
They are both 4wd....
If anything I think putting the GTR lump and guts into an Impreza would be a step back... it would weigh about 200kg more

I'd much rather have a well sorted Scooby than a Skyline anyway. Not a Skyline fan.

the GTR has about 300bhp more and 2 or 3 times the build cost.... thats why it was 'cool as fuck'
My Impreza is really just a track hack

why does it have to be a step anything
Its a higher powered 4wd coupe.... if anything its a fucking step sideways.
If I had bought a run of the mill Evo/Impreza, then yes.... that would have been a step down, but your comments are just retarded as you seem to know nothing about the car/my impreza/my gtr.
The GTR landed on its roof.... we replaced it with a car we wanted We will strip the GTR in time, and build this new shell.
