1998 Subaru Impreza Turbo 2000 AWD review from UK and Ireland
"It gives you a second childhood"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Superb car, turbo lag a problem below 3000rpm, STi VI filter and exhaust system have improved mid range pick up. Front seats are the MOST comfortable ever! Front brakes need uprating - I'm told AP pads, racing brake fluid and new discs are the answer - the brakes work as they are on the 98 spec but the feel is non existant - and they fade quickly when used hard. Odd! but I've never wanted to do stuff and add bits to a car till I got the Scooby!
