1997 Type R... but Type Rs were launched in 1999 leh bro. 1997 there is one in IMM but not registered and re-exported out cause it is ver 3.

 

BKS started in 2000 after they split from Roland Teo who took them out from MIE.

I was one of their very first few customers until today. BMS started in 2004 after the split from Keong.

 

PM me your name lah...see if it rings a bell. I think in the Subaru fraternity, a lot of ppl knows who I am lah. Almost a decade of Subaru ownership...sigh.

Rennie Heng Doctor meh? hmmmm

Hi ppl!

 

 

I'm considering buying a car. Thanks for all the wonderful info about the Rex and the many pro advices. It's a joy reading all these posts!

 

How about the normal Impreza?

 

I just want a sporty looking car, decorate w stickers, change to growling exhaust (hopefully not affecting fuel consumption), if can change whole engine when I get sian of the no power.

 

Is the Impreza really 12km/L as SGcarmart says?

 

Burning qn: Is the frame same as the previous model? How come just w the change of rear lights and subaru logo instead of the words "SUBARU" the boot looks so not cool alr.

 

N y the reverse lights always only habe the left side? So irritating!

the loan is 10 yrs .. now i think left 8 yrs plus ..

THEN do a simple calculation la.. muz see his COE + PARF = paper value how much as well as his body value worth how much ma. btw the parf is 55% or 82.5% of the OMV? btw when he sell the car he have to pay a penalty to the bank which he loan from. be it citiband dbs ge money or hong leong finance also the same. although is not stated in the paper wowrk. is HIDEN COST. which is around 1% of the total left loan. ask car dealer better. think more. dun juz bcoz of u thik 800+ a month is cheap u can take. + transfer fee ley.. u how old ? insurance ley ? no offence but nowadays , ppl dun drive wrx ani more. reason? coz not worth to feed it. drink oil more. insurance ex. drive for f u c k ? now many ppl selling n u still wan buy ? LOL.

the only way to get 12km/litre consistently on an Impreza is to push it around.

 

You can achieve the "growling exhaust" note by changing to unequal length extractor but the low-end performance will suffer.

 

From the bugeye to the current model, the improvements are only superficial.

 

From memory, the sedan has twin reverse light but the wagon has reverse light on the left, and the same position on the right is the fog light.

Low-end performance means at slow speeds?

 

I dunno y but many would agree w the new hawk-eye imprezas' rear dun look so good compared to the older models. That's is y I wonder if it is the new headlights or cos the frame has changed. Or just the old models' "SUBARU" instead of the stars logo make it look cooler.

 

No leh, if u look at a lot of the new cars, most of the cars only have reverse headlights on the left, including the imprezas and WRXs.

 

Can't join the club nor read the messages leh. Y so exclusive? Must have paid mail?

Bro, the Euro Specs WRX and STis, regardless of wagon or sedan comes standard with unequal length extractors. Only the JDM twinscrolls come with equal length extractors. From the bugeye to the c*** eye and even to pig nose, the improvements are not exactly superficial, even for Euro Specs. The engine itself, the crank, the cams, the inlet manifold all different. Even the body rigidity has significant differences.

Did you buy the car?

i would agree with you as long as it remains a TS.

 

Know so many TS owners, who spent so much money changing bonnet, seats, extractor & exhaust muffler, rims & tyres, speedo cluster, gear shift, convert rear brakes to disc, just to make it look like a WRX.

 

Some even do illegal modifications like installing turbo, or swopping for a 2.5L engine.

 

If you have to do all these, just buy a WRX, at least you can drive in peace.

If buy make sure mod the outlook to this..
