2.2.3 WRX/Sti Cars
With 276+ bhp, and 260 lb/ft of torque, mated to a shorter close ratio gearbox, the later Japanese specification Impreza's have the ability to out accelerate virtually all other cars on the road. Official figures are 0-62mph (100km/h) in about 4.9 seconds, although a Tye R was timed at 4.3 seconds (0-60) by Performance Car in the UK. In standard form, these cars are limited to 112mph by Japanese law, but bypassing the speed limiter enables them to reach top speeds of about 150mph+ You certainly wouldn't want to run the cars at this speed for any period of time, as the fuel consumption would be well down into single figures!!!
The regular WRX/STi models have different (slightly shorter) gearing than the Turbo 2000 models, but with an extra 500 or 1,000 rpm to play with, the maximum speeds in gears are similar. The top speed (limiter bypassed) of these models is around 150mph at nearly 7,000 rpm.
The following table of gear ratios relates only to the WRX STi IV saloon. The ratios for the Type R and RA STi models are significantly shorter, at about 19mph per 1000rpm in 5th.

i'm of the train of thought 'Had a supra, been there done that' just now.....
I liked the impreza, Fee loved it.... it was imaculate, we only need 1 car just now ( + corsa  )
and TBH supra's are as common as Impreza TypeR's...
I can pick an old'ish Auto one for cheap at auction later on? or maybe a matching impreza WRX STi 4door if i'm impressed  and sell it on to work up to an STi SpecC moohahaha

Its funny, cos when they first came out, everyone thought they were nasty and what a fuck up subura had made, but now most people seem to be coming round too em, suppose now theyve been around for a while people have had a chance to try few different looks etc.......

i reckon u should hold out till ur back from norway. that way, ul have your pay from there, hopefully ur tax rebate will have come through, ul have your deposit back from the supra. plus the skyline will be back n finished, and get Fee to sell if for you while your away. that way u come home to a load of cash, and plenty of time to make the right choice and not buy somethin for the sake of it.
(or am i jus too sensible? )
