One of the big differences with this site is that all things have to be backed up. Get the spec up Blacky, go on :)

Okay, here is the full spec.

The car had been imported brand new to the UK, and is a WRX STI Tpe RA V Limited No 843/1000. So it has an impressive standard spec

Here is the spec:

Standard Specification:
DCCD driver adjustable centre differential transmition system
R180 rear differential with LSD
Front LSD
Larger driveshafts and wheel bearings
13:1 quickrack
Intercooler Water Sprays (Manual and Auto mode)
8250rpm STi engine
Close ratio gearbox (top speed 160MPH, not the ultra low ratio of the early RA

I think it's worth mentioning that Logan also works in F1 and has done the Ring more time than Gareth has done Thickthorn roundabout.

he also forgot the most important thing about his car..........the lightweight wheel nuts are RED! :lol: :lol:

made all the difference to the car when he put them on, he told me............Logan does like his bling :wink:

lightweight wheels are functional Rob :D

reducing rotating mass is always a good move.... they have transformed my car too :)
