Not trying to be a smart ass but, you did mention STI right?

most people dont know how to pick the difference between STI and Non-STI

Firslty there were no four door blue sti in the old shape (pre bug eye)

only white and wrc blue 2 doors (400 of these)

and then gun metal grey and white 4 doors (400 of these)

so if your racing a blue 4 door wrx then it wont be an STI, if your racing a white or gun metal grey WRX it will be harder to tell the difference if its a real Sti

recently best motoring test drive the Evo 8 and comepare to a Evo 7, the Evo7 has shorter 3 & 4 gear than Evo 8, but the 0-400 time are similar

AYC & ACD used to be scary thing in Evo 4,5,6, most of owner disconnect them and use a LSD instead. Then they improve it and the super AYC seems to be a VERY nice things.

I have a question.

Where are all you people with the super quick GTS-Ts. I must say, can't find em on the streets, can't find em at the drags.

One has not 'yet' come close to me on the streets. And my car isnt really all that heavily modified. Maybe the guys with the fast GTS-Ts don't want to waste their time on me.

But seriously, I know they exist, but it seems like every bloke here has a GTS-T weapon.

I got to drive a private-owned Evo VIII and it's snappier than a MY03 STi and quicker round Wakefield by quite a margin (at least 5seconds). Could be drivers but I don't think i'm that good.

Evo vs STi in Best Motoring 7 is a VERY interesting comparo. It really depends on how humid the ambient temp. is. I've seen some Rexes pick up quite a bit of time, while Evos seem to favour cold, crisp air (similar to RX-7s).

The Evo VI ACD was a pretty tricky thing but when drivers learnt to trust it they were so much faster than the ones who'd put LSDs in

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
