having an agruement with a guy from work atm as he thinks there is a wrx non turbo?

i have never heard of such a car exist it is either a non turbo rx or the turboed wrx and sti.

i have searched the net only to find another forum with one guy saying there is no such thing either i need a clear answer to tell this guy that he is blowing smoke out of his ass hole.

essentially i thought that engine were similar with some different internal components, bonnet scoop, different front bar different interior etc but as far as a non turbo WRX which he claims his mate has one i dont believe it.

WOW i said someone was sad enough to buy wrx badges and fit them.

unless someone went to the trouble of buying a wrx with turbo and then taking it off and pluming up all the lines back to the block and coolant. he still says no its definetely a factory badged non turbo wrx.

could i get a list of peoples answers so i can print it out and take it to work cos i work with a bunch of commo drivers at work who think jap cars are like rabbits and shouldnt be in the country cos they won bathurst in the early 90's, who no nothing about jap cars but just tell me to leave him alone and that he must no wat he is talking about.

probably should have but it was a spur of the moment idea when i was on here none the less keep them comments flowing:):P and if there is such a thing out of the factory i would love to hear about it

In the USA they originally bought out a WRX which had a 2.5litre engine but no turbo.

They have only just bought out the turbo WRX with the 2 litre engine

google it, its on the net somewhere

mate i work for subaru and i can tell you there is no such thing as a non turbo wrx from factory.

his mate has prolli got an RS-X. which is just an RS impreza. these had a 2.5 litre N/A engine, with interior the same as the wrx. subaru australia took 400 of these and made the limited edition RS-X, which got wrx wheels, rear muffler (twin pipe) and stickers. so basicly at a glance it looks just like a rexy without the bonnet scoop.

does this help?

hahahah lol his mum is the secretary at our work so i guess the opportunity is there bud lol.

best answer so far.

Do your mates mum and then tell him you did his mum. Will completely make him forget about the wrx topic....

As said above, non turbo's are Impreza's.

+1...matty's hit the nail on the head with that one

Roshambo your mate.

problem solved.

:P

I think there is a non turbo version just , the subaru impreza 2.0L. Personally if you needed a non turbo just head for a Skyline GTS RB25DE because standard WRX turbo models put out roughly 230Hp , and im not saying they dont go hard but a non turbo impreza would probably give out about 160hp topps. hence Skyline GTS 190hp but its up to you. Good luck in finding one =]
